Congratulations! Your character has been accepted by King Arthur to receive the Mana Tablet! This is your main tool to swap with your counterpart from the Real World. You'll notice that upon booting it up, you've got a couple of things to check out! Let's go over one by one what each feature provides.
The Mana App is the main feature you'll be using on this magical tablet! Upon opening the app, your tablet will go into "Swapping Mode" and will await for your Parallel counterpart to also open the app. Once both sides have opened the app, the tablet will perform it's magic and allow you to swap bodies with your other self!
This app will require a 1 hour recharge after use and requires a perfect connection to work!
The Video App is more or less like what you'd find when using Zoom or Facetime! This allows you to get direct video connection to see through the camera of your counterpart's phone or tablet. This requires you to have a decent amount of connection for it to work. Video quality will get worse the worse the connection is.
Lastly, the Chat App! You can connect to a chatroom filled with every other Linked Pair in the group! Use this feature to figure out plans with other pairs, or just have fun! This app will be represented by the Tablet App Chatroom on Discord, where everyone will pretend to type as their characters using the Tupperbox feature
While the video and Chat app do not drain power, the Mana App will! You and your partner must wait 1 full hour before being able to swap again.
How does Wi-fi work between parallel universes? Don't worry about it. All you need to know is that you need a perfect 5 bar connection to use the Mana app, and only 1 to use the Video and Chat Apps. The reception will only be 5 bars if both characters are within a few mile radius of each other across parallel universes. The farther you are away from each other, the worse the reception gets.
Yes! As the events of the group go by, more apps will be added to the tablet. We're not sure what they'll be yet, but I guess we'll all find out as time goes on and we think of other fun things to add!
There is a 1 hour recharge on swapping. Reception is also something to be concerned about. You cannot swap without perfect reception and video chatting gets worse the worse reception there is. Perfect reception is only possible when both characters are in a few mile radius from one another. Characters also cannot swap while in the range of the Darkness and it's effects.
Yes, however, they will be under strict watch from King Arthur and are expected to yield if they go out of line. Extra measures will be taken so that they will follow rules (think Suicide Squad).
Once the Fantasy Character has obtained the tablet and opened up the Mana app, the same app will mysteriously appear on the campus member's smartphone. Once they have also opened it up, it will cause both parties to swap bodies for the first time. Afterwards the other apps also show up on the campus member's phone. Only the Linked Pair that owns the Smartphone can see these apps, every other person in the real world, including other linked pairs, will only see a default phone screen if they were to glance at it.
If a Campus Member's Smartphone gets lost, then they will not be able to swap again until they are either able to find their phone or purchase a new one. Purchasing a new one will automatically move the apps to that phone. They cannot borrow someone else's phone, they have to be the one to own it.
There will be many Quests and Events where the Mana Tablet may malfunction, causing some fun prompts to arise! Keep a lookout for all the times it will happen in the future!
No, your character is the only one that can see what they are doing on their own phone. If someone else, even another linked pair, were to look at your phone while the app was opened, they'd only see the default screen. They also would not hear the voice of the Fantasy character talking on the other side, even on speaker mode.
