Discover the fundamental properties, encoding mechanics, and Aether Crystal uses of Dream Aether in Dreams of Aether. Learn how to harness this primordial energy.
Dream Aether is the primordial energy at the origin of the Universe, considered infinite and undetectable. It is the source of all energy and matter, with its density constantly increasing. Dream Aether is absorbed from the atmosphere and stored by the Oracle Bracelet, or can be directly absorbed from dead bodies, though this is dangerous as it contains the memories and feelings of the deceased.
The density of Aether increases with the number of spiritual beings in an area, creating a virtuous cycle of evolution. Civilizations eventually detect and use Aether. It is attracted to itself, moves inward when spun centrifugally, and atmospheric Aether replenishes instantly.
Dream Aether can be encoded using the Oracle Bracelet to enhance attributes like Strength, Agility, Constitution, Vitality, Intelligence, and Perception. The cost of encoding varies with volume, with larger volumes being more expensive. Each body has an Aether capacity, with a human limit of 100 points for Grade 1 Encoding. Higher grades allow for more Aether storage and additional passive properties, but come at a significant cost.
Properties:
- Aether is attracted to itself.
- Aether spun centrifugally moves inward.
- Atmospheric Aether is instantly replenished and retains its density.
Encoding Basics:
- Transforms Dream Aether into energy to enhance attributes.
- Seven basic attributes: Strength, Agility, Constitution, Vitality, Intelligence, Perception.
- Cost varies by volume; above 3 cubic meters, price doubles; above 6 cubic meters, price triples.
- Example: 1 Aether point for a 3 cubic meter unit of volume with Sharpness Encoding.
- Human Aether limit is 100 points for Grade 1 Encoding.
Encoding Grades:
- Grade 1: Condenses Aether like gas; Max Attribute: 100.
- Grade 2: Condenses Aether like liquid; Max Attribute: 1,000.
- Grade 3: Condenses Aether like solid; Max Attribute: 10,000?
- Each grade allows 10x more Aether storage and more complex functions.
- Grade 1 primary Encodings are free; higher grades cost credits at the Oracle Store (e.g., Grade 2 Strength Encoding costs 1,000 credits).
Aether Colors:
- Strength: Red
- Agility: Orange
- Constitution: Yellow
- Vitality: Green
- Intelligence: Cyan
- Perception: Indigo
