1. Konoma Scale: Measuring Threats and Potential
1.1 Cognitive Levels (0-1.0):
- 0-0.3 – Basic instincts (reaction to stimuli)
- 0.4-0.7 – Primitive thinking (risk analysis)
- 0.8-1.0 – Creative/strategic consciousness
Example: stone after absorbing "Tears of the Abyss" – 0.8
1.2 Hazard classes:
| Level | Description | Example |
|---------|---------------------------|-------- ---------------------|
| 1 | Background anomalies | Space dust |
| 2-3 | Local threats | Artifact fragments |
| 4-5 | Aggressive life forms | Fragment absorber |
| 6+ | Space catastrophes | Wind of Chaos |
---
2. Classification of materials and resources
2.1 Energy sources:
- "Tears of the Abyss" (Class 3):
- Potential: 45-50 units.
- Properties: Structure stabilization, regeneration acceleration.
- "Heart of the Ancient" (Omega Class):
- Potential: 300+ units.
- Warning: Risk of symbiosis with the artifact.
2.2 Types of matter:
| Type | Use | Danger |
|------------|-----------------------------------|-------------------------|
| Crystals | Powering systems, repairs | Low (if not contaminated) |
| Metals | Reinforcing the hull, creating shields | Medium (Chaos corrosion) |
| Organics | Prohibited by Konomara | High (mutation) |
Remains of lost civilizations.
3. Bestiary of the Void
3.1 Fragment Absorber (Beta class):
- Threat level: 4
- Abilities:
- Matter deformation
- Weakness: Resonance frequencies (see "Chaos Discharge")
- Behavior: hunts damaged artifacts.
3.2 Wind of Chaos (Alpha class):
- Threat level: 7
- Features:
- Destroys space-time connections.
- Invulnerable to physical attacks.
- System advice: flee only.
3.3 "Heart of the Ancients":
- Status: unclassified.
- Hypotheses:
- Possibly a remnant of the Ancients civilization.
- Emits "living" energy.

4. System Functions (Basic/Unlocked)
4.1 Scanning:
- Radius depends on energy
- Accuracy: 3% for crystals, 15% for artifacts.
4.2 Chaos Discharge:
- Principle of operation: creates resonance in the target's structure.
- Restriction: requires 15 units + 5 units for each subsequent shot.
4.3 Emergency Protocols:
- Matter Sacrifice: up to 10% to distract threats.
- Core Overload: Risk of destruction, but +300% to power.

5. Konomara Terminology
- "Energy Deficit" – A state below 5 units. Automatically activates economy mode.
- "Quasi-Neural Activity" – An analogue of synapses in intelligent races.
- "Reconstruction" – Restoration with preservation of system memory. .
- "Knowledge is the only weapon in the Void. But even it can become poison."

System Note: Data is updated as new threats are studied. The next goal is to study the "Heart of the Ancient." The risk is unacceptable, but... curiosity has been recorded.
