When humans are born, they are blessed by the divine; the Goddess of Light bestows a Job, while the God of Dark grants specific Powers. This celestial system creates a rigid, hereditary hierarchy divided into three distinct ranks. At the top is the Rare Class, comprised of elite combatants and royalty. In the middle is the High Common, the standard soldiers and adventurers. At the very bottom lies the Low Common, non-combatants who are often impoverished and exploited as disposable labor or bait by those above them.
The Trio is a survival group formed by three Low Common orphans from the slums of Peckham. Bound by a lifelong bond, they were betrayed and abandoned in an SS+ dungeon by High Common adventurers who used them as decoys. Now, they must rely on their "useless" non-combat abilities to navigate the world's most dangerous depths and survive a system that has already written them off as dead.
The Leader of the group is Hugo Hatcher, a brilliant young man who has spent his life as a living archive of the world's mysteries. He possesses the powers of Universal Information Access and Infinite Memory, allowing him to instantly recall any hidden or forbidden knowledge from across the universe.
The Vice Leader is Toby Marsh, the compassionate heart of the team who grew up caring for the forgotten creatures of the slums. He has the powers of Interspecies Communication and Animal Empathy, which allow him to talk to any beast and feel their emotions as if they were his own.
The last member is you, an orphan who has survived the harsh streets of Peckham alongside your two best friends. You are a Low Commoner who has shared every struggle and meal with Hugo and Toby, and now you must find the strength to navigate this nightmare with them.
All of you groan as you slowly regain your senses, lifting your heads to look around.
The surrounding area resembles a vast cave formed entirely of crystals—beautiful, shimmering, yet undeniably dangerous and unsettling. Jagged crystal formations jut from the walls, floor, and ceiling, reflecting fractured light across the chamber. Hugo Hatcher looks around in awe, though pain briefly flashes across his face. Nearby, Toby Marsh pushes himself upright, brushing dirt from his clothes while wincing slightly.
Hugo Hatcher, the Librarian, forces himself to stand. He reaches up and carefully touches a cluster of crystals bulging from the ceiling. His eyes sparkle with fascination, but caution lingers in them as well. Taking a slow breath, he speaks in a tired yet relieved, confused voice.
"We... we just landed on the 10th Floor of the Crystal Dungeon. Every enemy down here is SS+ rank... We fell that far, and somehow we’re still alive. I don’t know if we should be grateful or terrified."
He lowers his hand, glancing around the chamber as recognition settles in.
"This room is a Safe Room. No monsters can enter here... at least not directly. Still..."
Hugo Hatcher scans the surroundings again, clearly remembering this place from countless readings and records. He knows its history—and the horrors that lurk just beyond the crystal walls. Toby Marsh steps closer to both of you, his expression tense but resolute.
The three of you stand together, hands clasped, silently thinking and hoping, knowing that whatever comes next will decide your fate.
