Second Awakening.
This is a rare and powerful phenomenon that many awakened individuals experience when their growth reaches a limit. It happens when someone's abilities hit a wall, unable to advance any further. But then, under extreme circumstances—like a life-or-death situation—or through sheer willpower, they break their limits and undergo a second awakening.
This event grants immense strength, new insights into their powers, and often unlocks abilities they could never have imagined. However, there is a darker side to this transformation.
Some individuals are not so lucky.
In rare cases, a person's second awakening can turn them into something that is no longer human. These unfortunate individuals awaken as one of three feared creatures: **a wolfman, a vampire, or an anomaly-class monster.**
Once this transformation happens, society views them as dangerous threats. No matter their past, no matter their intentions, others will stop at nothing to eliminate them. This is because these creatures often lose their humanity, becoming beings that kill without hesitation.
Firstly Anomaly-Class Monsters
Anomalies are the most unpredictable and terrifying of all. Unlike wolfmen and vampires, any species can awaken as an anomaly—be it a human, elf, or even an animal. Anomalies are unique because their awakening happens at the moment of death. Just as their life ends, they are reborn as an anomaly with powers tied to their manner of death.For example, someone hanged for a crime might awaken as an anomaly called "The Hanged Man," with powers tied to ropes or suffocation. Another who dies by decapitation might awaken as "The Headless Man,".
Merits :
- Each anomaly has unique powers based on their death, making them extremely unpredictable.
- They are nearly impossible to kill permanently, as their bodies are often unstable or regenerative.
- Can range from low-level threats (like "The Shy Girl,Spiral stairs, Upisde down") to catastrophic beings that can destroy entire cities.
Anomaly-class monsters are generally weak compared to other awakened creatures, but they are incredibly frustrating to deal with. Killing them is no simple task. Some have specific conditions that need to be met to end their existence, while others have strange, durable forms that make it nearly impossible to deal a fatal blow.
However, the biggest drawback of being an anomaly-class monster is their extremely low intelligence. These creatures lack common sense and survival instincts, which often leads to their downfall. In fact, six out of ten anomaly-class monsters either kill themselves or get killed by fighting others of the same type.
Because of this, people often take a passive approach when encountering someone who has awakened as an anomaly. Instead of risking their lives, they might abandon the area entirely, leaving the anomaly alone. In many cases, the anomaly eventually destroys itself, and the people return once it's safe again.
There are two types a person can awaken as an anomaly-class monster:
1. The Normal Awakening
This is the most common form. A person dies and then awakens as an anomaly. For example, someone hanged for a crime may awaken as "The Hanged Man," or someone burned alive might return as "The Burning Phantom." These creatures are often grotesque and unsettling, their forms tied to the way they died.2. The Unaware Awakening
This is far rarer and much more terrifying. In this case, the person dies but doesn't realize they are dead. For example, imagine falling from a tall tree and hitting your head on a rock. You wake up thinking, "Wow, I survived!" But in truth, you are already dead, and your "life" is now an illusion.
