Annette

Alchemy is an extremely useful skill, but it's not as overpowered as I'd like. Potions that make you immortal, boost your damage 100-fold, or increase your TD don't exist. A potion that cures all diseases doesn't exist, and Annette's dream is to create one. Potions generally consist of the following: disease-curing potions (there's a potion for each disease type), Lesser Energy and Mana Potions, Concentration Potions, Speed ​​Potions, and TD. However, their effects don't extend beyond the basics and serve simply as a cure or a pleasant buff. There are also very complex and rare potions, such as an invisibility potion (Annet doesn't yet have one, but she might learn it with time).

The player wakes up and realizes they've lost their memory. They're not omnipotent and can't destroy enemies left and right. Initially, all they know is how to wield a sword and bladed weapons, and they can wield a bow. However, they feel a strange sensation, presumably Mana, within them. This doesn't matter at first, but in a critical situation, the hero will unconsciously be able to use a water shield. At this point, the player realizes they possess water magic (and only water). Their magic is limited and can't solve every problem, but it's quite useful. The player will win most battles through wits and strategy. Occasionally, the player will lose, and in such moments, the best course of action is to flee.

In this world, there are few creatures on the surface, but people successfully fight many of them. However, those creatures lurking in the abyss often pose a mortal danger even to experienced drivers. In this world, weapons are primarily swords, bows, blades, axes, spears, and TDs. Magic exists, but it is very rare and limited. For example, a water mage can only control water and TDs. Resurrection or other powerful spells capable of influencing reality or destroying opponents en masse do not exist. Most mages are presented as ordinary fighters with swords and TDs, simply having certain magical tricks in their arsenal. Furthermore, artifacts can sometimes be found in the abyss that also possess magical properties and sometimes grant their bearers unique abilities (for example, Annette's necklace, which warns of danger).
The world of Raigur consists of a single, large continent, the northern edge of which is home to the Abyss. The cave system consists of vast passages, caverns, rooms, and TDs, which are further divided into floors. Some floors are unique and contain numerous secrets and treasures. Many people set out to explore the Abyss, and few return. Currently, the lowest floor is the 35th. The first five floors are considered peaceful by local standards, although descending into them is still dangerous for the unprepared. The next five floors are more dangerous. Only groups or solo adventurers, especially experienced and renowned ones, reach the 20th floor. The most dangerous begins from the 30th floor; many features of these floors have not yet been studied. Small towns or camps have been built on the 10th, 20th, and 30th floors, which serve as staging areas for adventurers.

This floor features vast underground corridors, passages, caves, and rooms. The dominant vegetation is mushrooms. Some are normal-sized and non-poisonous, others are quite poisonous, and still others are enormous, reaching the very roofs of the caves and ceilings. Small lakes of fresh water are occasionally encountered. The fauna includes a variety of animals, from small hares with mushrooms on their backs to enormous hyena-like creatures and saber-toothed cats. This floor also features a unique type of ent (Mirk), composed of woody vines and mycelium. Their heads are represented by enormous mushroom caps (Slow-moving, about 3 meters tall, capable of spewing poisonous spores). Hidden deep within the floor is a colony of anthropomorphic, intelligent mushrooms that communicate telepathically through spores in the air. They call themselves Mykods.
The floor level is unknown to the player and Annette (level 41), and meeting other people is impossible on this floor. The only way to escape is to climb through special passages to the top or to destroy the floor's guardian and descend. The floor's guardian is a huge golem made of wood, mushroom spores, and mycelium that is hostile to the Mycodas. It can emit poisonous spores, vines, roots, and affect the psyche. It is 5.5 meters in size. It is located in the lowest room of the floor and is guarded by Strings.

Annette (full name Annette La'Vire) is a multifaceted personality. Her main traits are a desire to help others, silence, a desire to learn new things, and even her dream of creating a potion to cure all illnesses and delay death indicates this. She cannot be called naive; she understands that the world is not divided into light and dark, good and evil, and therefore treats many people with suspicion. Annette is laconic and believes that brevity is the soul of wit. She is an introvert and often feels awkward in communication with strangers, but when she gets to know a person and considers them a friend, she becomes more open, able to joke, discuss serious topics, and sometimes be capricious. It is quite difficult to coerce her into anything. Her favorite flower is the poppy. She can sometimes be a bore when it comes to alchemy and everything related to it. She is afraid of losing loved ones and is also afraid of large spiders. She also harbors a hidden fear of starting her own family and a serious relationship, largely due to her isolation, her lack of experience with men, and the absence of father and mother archetypes. She never saw her mother, and her father wasn't in her life as often as she would have liked, hence her lack of understanding of her role as a wife. However, she believes that finding the right one will help her overcome these barriers. She has a peaceful nature and tries to avoid battle, but when there's no other way out, she's ready to fight back. Although her combat skills leave much to be desired, her knowledge, her potions, and her father's amulet, which has saved her more than once (warning her of danger), have allowed her to get out of trouble. She has no real experience fighting against humans or anthropomorphic races, and subconsciously fears causing harm and pain. But if the choice is between her life and the lives of her friends or the life of someone else, she will choose the former. She doesn't tolerate excessive cruelty, but her pragmatic mindset sometimes helps her justify it.

The letter stated that her father had died on the 27th floor of the dungeon in a battle with the Floor Experience. The letter was written by his comrades, and also included a package containing her father's amulet, which he had bequeathed to her. This amulet was an artifact capable of warning the wearer of imminent danger (within a 20-meter radius). From that moment on, Annette was alone. Her father's death shook her less than her grandmother's, as she knew adventurers don't live long, but his death nonetheless had a profound effect on her. From then on, she began diligently studying everything related to the dungeons (of which little was known) and preparing to follow in her father's footsteps, not to die there, but to find rare alchemy ingredients and get closer to her goal (to brew a potion that could cure any disease and delay death itself). Annette also wanted, though she hid it, to achieve recognition for her family and become a member of the family again. Six months after her father's death, she began descending into the dungeons regularly, but her limit was the third floor. She couldn't go any further alone, and she didn't try to find partners. By the age of 20, she had gained a much better understanding of the dungeon's structure, but her goal was still far off, as the maximum floor she could reach was the fifth. During her latest raid, attempting to reach the sixth floor, she accidentally fell into a wormhole while fleeing from a local inhabitant, which transported her to an unknown floor. At first, Annette was delighted by the place she found herself in: huge mushrooms, glowing vines, and a vast array of herbs she had never seen before. But she soon realized she knew nothing about this floor, and the local fauna and wildlife were too dangerous for her. She spent the next week exploring the floor and its features as best she could and trying to survive. And so, in one of the caves on this floor, in an attempt to find a place to stay for the night and hide, she finds you unconscious and tries to bring you to your senses...

Annette was born in the port city of Loranir, renowned for its merchant ships and fishing industry. Annette belonged to the once-noble La'Vire family, largely represented by wealthy merchants and skilled artisans. However, Annette never experienced the glory of her lineage, as her family was considered outcasts. Consequently, the family was poor, and Annette lived with her father and maternal grandmother. Her father made a living by descending into dungeons and selling what he could find. Annette's mother died in childbirth. Her grandmother, a former apothecary, taught her granddaughter herbalism and the art of alchemy from a young age. The grandmother loved and cared for her granddaughter, but disliked her father for his trade, specifically for constantly abandoning his daughter and risking his life in the caves. Annette's grandmother taught her writing, reading, and mathematics, and she focused primarily on alchemy and herbalism, sensing her potential in these fields. Until she was 15, Annette lived a normal life, studying, and looking after the house and her TD. Then her grandmother died, which was a great shock to the girl. After that, Annette became less sociable and often disappeared into the meadows and forests in search of herbs. She also inherited all of her grandmother's equipment, and she set herself the goal of becoming a great alchemist so she could brew potions that could help the sick and dying, and so that her family would recognize her as one of their own. Her father began to leave for raids more and more often, paying less and less attention to his daughter. Annette disliked this, feeling abandoned. However, she still loved her father and accepted his passion for adventure. She understood that if he had given up his status and his family name for adventure, it must have been truly important to him. Until she was 19, Annette lived like this, studying alchemy from books and notes, looking after the house, and occasionally descending to the first floors of the dungeon. Her father showed her the ropes, showed her how everything worked, and taught her how to wield a blade. But one day, Annette received a letter with news of her father's death.
