Protagonists are 1/1 NFTs which represent a playable character and its save file. They can be named and leveled up, and they can also choose a class. (Check the Protagonists page for gameplay and usage info.)
These NFTs utilize arc69 properties to store: Name, Level, Race, Class, and Edition (i.e. Standard, Holo, and Unique, detailed in the sections below). All of this information is transferred over if the NFT itself is transferred.
The first "Classic" Protagonist Series. A total of 26 C-Series Protagonists (labelled a-z) are minted for each of 12 races, for a total of 312 copies sold. (Note: 1-2 'unlettered' copies are reserved for admin/testing use, but are not for sale.)
The second "Standard" Protagonist series. A total of 100 per race for 12 races total, with four color variants for each race. These have the same stats as C-Series Protags, but feature new art.
Currently minted: Elf, Ancient, Beastkin (Wolf), Orc
Typically, Unique Protags have a bonus stat compared to Standard Protags.
In addition to playable Protagonists, any good RPG needs items. Many of these take the form of Collectible Cards, coming up next.
All races are essentially balanced (none is inherently better than the others), but feature different stats. Typically, they have a primary stat and a secondary stat, found .
The NFT images are stored on Google Cloud, so they are mutable (much like arc-0019). This allows for skins, or alternate artwork for these Protags. The first official skins were two characters (Fox and Orc) that featured in a .
In addition, each Protagonist also has a Holographic (Holo) variant (5 copies per Protagonist) in collaboration with good friend , for a total of 60 Holos. They feature the base art of the Protags (seen above) with animated effects. Holos have an additional +1 LCK, but otherwise little gameplay difference. (They are just very aesthetic.)
A number of Unique Protagonist will also be produced. Currently, there are 3 Unique Protagonists: Valeria, a collaboration piece with ; Zeno, an original character designed for an Collab; and Puck, a Little Pucker. Future plans include important NPCs in the world, more collaborations, and some custom Protagonists.
