Pioneer of the Abyss: A Deepsea Livestreamed
Book 2: Glossary

The Alliance

Description: The Alliance is a dictatorship ruled by the Grand Chancellor with very few checks and balances to keep him in check. So few that the only things stopping him from doing whatever he pleases are the Bloodline families and the populace itself of the elite society turning against him. The Alliance spans across hundreds of galaxies with trillions of people in its population, and each world within it is classified by five different Classes of world.

Class I: Class I worlds are prosperous in every way, and they are often covered in nothing but cities with little to no nature. They even have cities in space around them in the form of space stations. However, only the wealthiest of people are allowed to live on them. They must also have Class I citizenship within the Alliance, must pay an immense immigration fee if they are not born on the Class I planet, and have some connection to someone on the planet to be allowed in. These worlds are the elite of the entire Alliance and number fewer than ten in total out of the hundreds of thousands of civilized planets within the Alliance.

Class II: Class II worlds are still prosperous, but they are often considered tourist worlds and vacation worlds. Places rich people go to in order to relax without living there. However, as the worlds still need people running them, there are plenty of people who live and work there. Often for the chance to rub shoulders with those Class I citizens. Giving them a possible connection to move to a Class I world should they ever attain Class I citizenship. There are hundreds of Class II worlds all across the Alliance.

Class III: Class III worlds are the average world in the Alliance for those who have a say in how the Alliance runs. Additionally, most affairs in the Alliance are run from Class III worlds with the majority of the work force being from these worlds. There are hundreds of thousands of Class III worlds in the Alliance.

Class IV: Class IV worlds are the bottom rung of the Alliance’s general society. The people living there, those with Class IV citizenship, are treated relatively poorly but still like people in a sense. They can move up in society through purchasing Class III citizenship and can move off their worlds if they get the citizenship and funds to move. But the Class IV worlds themselves serve as hosts for these bottom rung citizens, with the people being largely under their own control as they try to push their way out of the worlds to better ones. There are tens of thousands of Class IV worlds in the Alliance.

Class V: Class V worlds are considered the slums of the Alliance. They are heavily regulated to force anyone living there to follow their rules with heavy Alliance military inhabitance to strictly control the planets. Keeping all the citizens in line with almost no chance to leave the worlds beyond connections, hitting the jackpot in the lottery, and through becoming a Pioneer. However, less than 0.00000001% of Pioneers from Class V worlds manage to survive after being selected. Serving as nothing more than entertainment for the rest of the Alliance.

Oceana

Description: The oceans of Oceana are all ruled separately by city with no overall governing body. However, the Hunter’s Guild, which hunts monsters across the planet to keep the cities safe, is spread across all the cities, with a single Headquarters in every Hunter’s City. And each ocean having one Hunter’s City. Meanwhile the cities are separated into Surface Cities and Deep Cities, with the line between Surface waters and Deep waters being at the 6000 meter depth mark. With monsters from the Deep layers being stronger than those in the Surface layers.

Description: On a dark day hated by all citizens of the lower worlds, Aqua finds herself chosen during the Selection Ceremony as the next user of their world to participate in the World Expansion. Where she is sent to a newly discovered world to showcase the world on a livestream shown to the entire universe in order to expose the world’s weakness to the Alliance. But after arriving, she awakens two Bloodlines. The Abyssal Orca Bloodline and the Kraken Bloodline. Both of which then merge into the Abyssal Kraken Bloodline.

After awakening her Bloodlines, Aqua spends weeks surviving in the waters of Oceana. Growing stronger, learning who her family is and what happened to them, and developing her career in the entertainment industry. All while meeting new people on her new world.

Age: 20

Appearance: She has deep blue hair, almost black, with a single white streak through her bangs. She is average height if not ever so slightly shorter than average and has glowing blue eyes.
