Adventurers

An Adventurer is someone that has received an Adventurer's License and become an official member of the Adventurer's Alliance. Adventurers take on requests from the Alliance and complete them for rewards, effectively making them similar to mercenaries for hire. While all Adventurers are part of the Alliance, Adventurers may also belong to a Guild. Adventurers may answer to the rules and powers within their respective guilds, but the Alliance acts as the central authority for all Adventurers.

Eligibility
In order to become an Adventurer, one must obtain an Adventurer's License and join the Adventurer's Alliance. The process generally begins with a preliminary evaluation by an official from the Alliance. This is conducted at regular intervals in certain outposts and/or large towns. The evaluation primarily checks that the Adventurer has mastered the Basic Skills for at least one Skilltype, though secondary checks also ensure that the candidate meets minimum physical and mental requirements.

Once the candidate has passed this evaluation, they are given the rank of Newcomer and registered for the Newcomer's Exam. Upon successfully clearing the Newcomer's Exam, the candidate is given an Adventurer's License and registered with the Alliance as a Novice Adventurer.

Ranks
Adventurers are given ranks based off their progress as an Adventurer. These are evaluated based off the Adventurer's record of completed missions and regular performance checks. Occasionally, inspectors will be sent out to audit mission records to verify their legitimacy. While higher-ranked Adventurers can assist lower-ranked ones with their missions, it must be noted in the records or the Adventurers involved risk incurring penalties.

The following are the ranks currently using in the ranking system for Adventurers: Ranks higher than Elite hold additional requirements such as Skill mastery, Alliance/Guild contributions, Fame level, etc. As a result, these ranks are referred to as *Prestige Ranks and are deemed significantly more difficult to achieve than the lower ranks. Some Elite Adventurers have been found to have similar strength as Prestige Adventurers, but lack the qualifications for the rank. These Elite Adventurers have been unofficially referred to as "Counterfeit (placeholder)". Because of these Adventurers, it is said that the power gap between Veteran and Elite is one of the greatest among the ranks.

 * Veteran
 * Elite
 * Epic*
 * Legendary*

Only a very small number of Adventurers have ever achieved the rank of Hero in the history of the Alliance and has usually been awarded to generation and/or era-defining Adventurers.
