Imposter System
Glossary

Absorption: This is a statistic that the Parasite is born with. The percentage refers to the number of evolution points from the total contained in the sample that the user can gain. (For example, a material with 10 evolution points with an absorption of 10% will only give 1 point at most.)

Base%: Whenever a % appear with a bare number it is defining a statistic. (For example, Mental Resistance 20% would mean the base value is 20% chance to resist.)

Compatibility: In the Imposter System, the compatibility of genetic material refers to the potential evolution points that are possible from that specific sample. (For Example, a material with a quantity of 12 evolution points that only has 50% compatibility cannot grant more than 6 evolution points.)

Factor: Whenever a factor is identified, it will be written in two or three significant figures. The factor defines a multiplicative adjustment of a base statistic. Factors adjust after all additive bonuses. (For example, Damage Factor 1.5 would mean a base damage of 2 would mean the damage is 3.)

Grade: This represents a life factor of an organism. This is related to complexity of life as well as intelligence and strength.

Host: This is the lifeform that the Parasite has infected and become one with. (Matt O'Connely is the current host of Matt the Parasite.)

Lv.: This is an acronym related to the common gaming term "Level" which represents a progressive increase in ability as the number increases and implies potential for growth to the next numerical number.

Meta: A common gaming term. This refers to a way of playing that players agree to be the best way to play at that current time. Games that are easily solvable tend to have static metas.

Modern: In narration, this refers to Matt's previous life in the modern era.

Modified%: Whenever a % appears with a number that has a plus or minus symbol it is referring to an additive adjustment of a base statistic. (For example, Damage +20% would mean if the base damage was 2, the adjusted would by 2.4.)

Parasite: This is an alien being whose goal is to survive, grow, and spread. It cannot exist on it's own and requires a Host. Not to be confused for the common Earth parasite. (Matt from 'modern' day has been reborn as the Parasite.)
