DREAM DRIVE DEVICEt– [DDD / D3 / DEVICE] looks like an ordinary Cell-phone, but is actually a tool that allows one to cast and store SONGS, SUMMONED BEINGS and WEAPONS. The storage value is dependent to the RANK and ROLE of an individual to its Kingdom.

WEAPONS t– Weapons created by "Dream Drive System" although they are illusions the harm can still be fatal.

SUMMONS t– a term to call forth contracted beings to aid in combat. These beings just like the weapons are born from the "Dream Drive System", needs actual academic and non-academic intelligence to summon the beasts. IQ is converted as INT as it is scanned through the "DEVICE"

In the Midnight Congregation individuals cannot buy summoned creatures, rather they are tamed or called forth.

Two ways to make a contract:

1.tGather SPRITES, which can be collected after defeating REMNANTS. These SPRITES then are used as medium for summoning using algorithms to randomly summon an AESIR;

2.tSubdue a REMNANT and make him your SERVANT.

SPRITEs – affinity SALAMANDER (火fire), UNDINE (水 water), GNOMES (土earth), JINNS (風wind), JASPER (雷lightning), WISP (光light), IMPS (闇darkness) and LYRICS (音sound). By gathering them in numbers you have a good chance to summon the being that you imagine.

AESIRS t– Higher Order Beings, G.o.d Cla.s.s Summons or Hero Cla.s.s Summons, needs a great amount of intelligence and concentration. Summons in this type of category are unique and therefore can only be summoned one at a time by an individual contractor.

Summoning AESIRS needs quite an amount of Intelligence and Imagination to summon one and a very high Concentration to control one.

Once summoned, the being will be "REGISTERED" through the user's D3 and into the DDS.

The requirement for another SUMMONER to contract the same AESIR is to have:

•tINT (the initial summoner's INT) + 30% INT (the current summoner)

SERVANTS t– beings which varies in different forms and sizes. They are ranked from A to F, A being the strongest. Another is S Cla.s.s as special creatures, which are rarely seen roaming around.
