Zenless Zone Zero World RPG

In the world of Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ), Caverns, Ethereals, and Aetheric Pressure are key elements of the lore, shaping the post-apocalyptic atmosphere and defining gameplay. Here's a detailed overview of these concepts:

1. Hollows Caverns are catastrophic spatial anomalies that appear out of nowhere and consume everything within their spherical boundaries. What they are: They are distorted, hostile alternate dimensions formed by a supernatural disaster. Characteristics: Time and space within Caverns are chaotic, making it nearly impossible to escape. Hollow Zero: This is the very first, largest, and most dangerous Cavern, having consumed old Eris (the capital of the world). Almost all other Caverns are considered sub-caverns of this one. Usage: New Eridu (the last human city) uses the Caverns as a source of the valuable resource Ether, despite the mortal danger.

2. Ether and Ether Pressure The Caverns are filled with a toxic substance known as Ether. What is Ether: A substance with a high energy potential that is used to power New Eridu's infrastructure. Ether Corruption: Living creatures exposed to Ether are slowly poisoned, mutated, and driven mad. Ether Pressure (game mechanic): While in the Cavern, characters are subject to "pressure." The pressure bar indicates how corrupted they are. Effects of High Pressure: If the pressure reaches 100, "Pressure Overload" is triggered: Agents suffer random symptoms that reduce their combat effectiveness.

3. Ethereals Ethereals are monsters spawned by Ether within the Caverns. Origin: These are mutated humans, animals, or other organic beings that have been exposed to high etheric pressure for too long, turning into mindless monsters. Species: Each Caverna has its own "Master"(a particularly dangerous Ethereal), whose mutation causes the Caverna's borders to expand. Ionized Ethereals: Special Ethereals, able to transform their body, which consists of ether, into any form. Proxy- conductors capable of leading out of cave

Cataclysm and the Emergence of the Hollows Hollows: The world was destroyed or radically altered by anomalous spherical zones called Caverns. They appear chaotically, engulfing spaces, buildings, and people. Ether: Caverns contain a substance called "Ether," which causes corrosion—people turn into monsters, and intelligent beings go mad. Ethereal Monsters: Caverns spawn monsters (Ethereals) that threaten all life. Old Civilization: Much of the familiar world perished, and the old cities, including the original Eridu, were destroyed. 2. The Founding of New Eridu The Last Stronghold: On the ruins of the old world, humanity built New Eridu—a high-tech metropolis that became the only refuge from the Hollows. Technology and Ether: The inhabitants of New Eridu learned to coexist with the Caverns. They found a way to extract resources from them (including Ether energy), allowing the city to thrive despite the danger. Security Services: To combat threats within the city and explore the Caverns, special services were created, such as the Public Security Service, which explores dangerous zones.

3. Exploring Caverns and Proxies Proxies: The "Proxy" profession emerged—specialists who, using a deep-diving system and Bangbu (small robot assistants), remotely guide people (Agents) within the Caverns, helping them navigate the changing environment and avoid going crazy. Bangbu: These robots have become indispensable, assisting with navigation and defense. Seven Great Heroes: According to legend, seven heroes made enormous contributions to exploring the Caverns, creating Bangbu, and establishing routes.
4. Current Situation (Game Plot) Phaeton: The plot centers on brother and sister Belle and Wise, who lead double lives. They run a video store, and secretly operate the legendary Proxies known as "Phaeton." Hollow Zero: The danger hasn't gone away, and new Caverns continue to appear, requiring constant

Distinctions and Personalities: Banbu have fun and unique "personalities" (e.g., "lazy" or "active") that influence their behavior.

They can be obtained, upgraded with cores, and tailored to the specific combat needs of the team.
