About this project

What does The Awakening add?

The Awakening

Awaken your power and master it.

When you load into the world everything seems ordinary, but once you end up in a stressful situation, your world turns upside down. You may Awaken a power, each power has ~5 abilities and is aimed to be equally powerful, allowing you to play your favorite and not just the meta.

You must use your power to master it.

If you do not like your current power, there are ways to achieve a new power.

Additional information can be found in the wiki.
