The ExoFrames are powered by an advanced energy system known as Arcane Cores, a fusion of quantum mechanics and dark energy synthesis. This system determines an ExoFrame's power output, efficiency, and abilities.

Core Types & Power Tiers:

Standard Cores (Rank C-B) – Used in mass-produced ExoFrames. These provide consistent energy but have limited adaptive capabilities.

.Elite Cores (Rank A) – Equipped in high-performance military models. They feature superior energy output and advanced adaptability but are power-hungry.

Experimental Cores (Rank S-X) – Rare and dangerous, these cores have unpredictable properties, often with self-learning or autonomous enhancements.

Thanatos' Core: The Abyss Drive (Rank X)

Unique Trait: Unlike conventional cores, the Abyss Drive absorbs and converts entropy into raw energy, making it nearly limitless but highly unstable.

Self-Awareness: The core has an evolving AI consciousness, which can either empower or resist its pilot.

Corruptive Potential: Prolonged usage can affect the pilot's mind, potentially fusing their consciousness with the machine.

Power Abilities & Modes:

Overdrive Mode: A burst-power function that exponentially increases speed and strength at the cost of core degradation.

Requiem Protocol: Thanatos' ultimate function—rewriting its own physical limitations by burning its pilot's neural patterns as fuel.
