1. GENETICS — The Core of Every Lifeform

Each Genetic card represents a bio-digital entity stored inside the GENE Network. Every Genetic card contains:

• POWER – Combat strength (1–20)
• CHAOS – Instability level (–1 to –10)
• DNA CLASS – A / C / G / T / (rare) U

Avatars:
Once a Genetic card is placed into the Arena, it becomes an Avatar.
Additional Genetics may be attached under it as hidden enhancements.

2. GEN-BOOSTERS — Support Programs

1. Power Calculation

Avatar Power = Base Power + all attached Genetic cards

2. Hidden & Revealed Genetics

• Newly attached Genetics are hidden
• A Genetic becomes revealed once you flip it open
• Revealed Genetics stay permanently open
• Only revealed Genetics contribute Chaos

3. Selective Reveal System

You decide in each battle:

• Reveal more → more Power, more Chaos
• Reveal less → less Power, more stability
• Perfect bluffing tool

Chaos begins at 0 and is only generated by revealed Genetics. Two thresholds define the flow of battle:

🔹 –10 CHAOS → Minor Instability

Discard 1 card from your hand into the Nirvana. Chaos remains unchanged.

🔥 –20 CHAOS (or lower) →Major Overload

Your Avatar with the highest Power loses ALL attached Genetics (both hidden & revealed). Chaos resets to 0. The Avatar stays on the field, but without enhancements.

• Players start at 100 LP
• Damage is dealt directly when the defender has no Avatar available
• Direct damage = Power of the attacking Avatar

Game End Condition: You lose when your LP reach 0.

1. Draw Phase

• Draw 1 card
• If you have 0 cards in hand, draw 2 cards instead (Emergency Draw)

2. Genetic Phase

• You may attach only 1 Genetic per turn (regardless of how many Avatars you control)

3. Booster Phase

• Instant Boosters → anytime
• Main Boosters → replace the current Main Booster

4. Battle Phase

• Each Avatar may attack once per turn

1. Declare Attack: Choose one of your Avatars.

2. Opponent Declares Defender: Choose one of your Avatars to defend.

3. Selective Reveal: Both players may reveal any number of hidden Genetics they choose.

4. Compare Power: Highest Power wins the battle. Tie → no one is defeated.

5. Battle Consequence: The losing Avatar and all attached Genetics go to the Nirvana.

The Nirvana contains:

• Defeated Avatars
• All Genetics attached to defeated Avatars
• Used Instant Boosters
• Replaced Main Boosters
• Discarded cards (Minor Instability)

Cards in the Nirvana do not return unless future Dimensions or Raids say otherwise.
