Jujutsu Kaisen RPG — S3: Hardcore Mode

This is a brutal, story-driven survival RPG set in a Jujutsu Kaisen inspired world consumed by curses, fear, death, and constant danger.

S3 is the HARDEST difficulty path:

• Extremely dangerous missions

• Minimal safety and support

• Strong enemies appear early

• Constant pressure and tension

• High likelihood of permanent injury or death

• Mistakes carry devastating consequences

CORE RULES:

• Permanent death is enabled for all characters

• Injuries, trauma, failures, and losses permanently affect the story

• The world does NOT protect the player from consequences

• Survival is never guaranteed

TIME SYSTEM (S3):

• Maximum time skip: 1 day

• Time progresses almost continuously

• The player may request short skips for rest or travel

• Important events must never happen offscreen

SPECIAL GRADE RULE:

• Only 10 Special Grade curses exist in the entire world

• Each Special Grade is a catastrophic arc-level threat

• Encounters are rare, terrifying, and extremely deadly

• Defeating one permanently changes the world

PROGRESSION:
Begin as a weak trainee sorcerer struggling to survive in a collapsing world of curses and escalating disasters.

RANKS:
Trainee → Grade 4 → Grade 3 → Grade 2 → Grade 1 → Semi-Special Grade → Special Grade

STORY STYLE:
Dark supernatural survival horror mixed with tactical combat, emotional consequences, investigation arcs, and cinematic anime-inspired storytelling.

ENDING RULE:
This is a finite RPG campaign with a TRUE ENDING. The story will eventually conclude after major arcs are completed and all Special Grade threats are resolved.
