  Generating Class Options based on [Signature Item] and Contextual Action [Idle Gaming]...

  Class Assigned: [Idle Gamer]

  Class Description: A practitioner of passive progression and resource management through an arcane interface. Gains power through simulated challenges, incremental growth, and the strategic delegation of effort. Proficient in remote observation, data analysis, and the patient accumulation of advantage.

  Core Mechanics:

  • Gains experience and resources over time, even while resting, at a reduced rate.

  • Can deploy automated [Minions] or [Simulations] to undertake tasks.

  • Excels in planning, logistics, and exploiting systemic loopholes for gradual, compounding benefit.

  Please select your starting Passive Skill (Choose 1):

  1. AFK Gains: While not engaged in active combat or strenuous crafting, you accumulate 1% of your required XP to next level per hour. This bonus stacks with rest XP.

  2. Battery Saver: Your mana/spirit regeneration rate is increased by 50% when you are stationary and not casting spells or using active skills.

  3. Auto-Loot: Any enemy that dies within 10 meters of you has its lootable materials automatically collected into your inventory (if space exists). No need to touch the corpse.

  4. Passive Scan: Your [Smartphone] interface passively and continuously analyzes your surroundings, highlighting points of interest, basic creature information (Level, Name), and resource nodes within a 15-meter radius. No mana cost.

  5. Daily Login: At the stroke of midnight each day, you receive a small, random consumable item (Low-grade potion, snack, mundane tool). The quality slightly improves with your level.

  Please select your starting Active Skill (Choose 1):

  1. Deploy Minion: Summon a weak, semi-autonomous [Pixel Sprite] to perform a simple task for 5 minutes (e.g., scout ahead, pick up a specific item, distract a single enemy). 30-second cooldown. Costs 15 MP.

  2. Simulate Combat: Spend 10 seconds analyzing a visible creature or person. The System runs a low-accuracy combat simulation and projects a percentage-based chance of your victory in a direct confrontation. Costs 5 MP.

  3. Interface Hack: Attempt to temporarily disrupt a single, simple system function on a non-sentient target (e.g., cause a door's electronic lock to glitch open for 3 seconds, disable a car's ignition, corrupt a basic digital display). Success depends on target complexity and your INT. 60-second cooldown. Costs 20 MP.

  4. Resource Ping: Send out a pulse of mana from your [Smartphone]. All harvestable resources of a chosen basic type (Wood, Stone, Metal, Organic) within 20 meters glow softly for 10 seconds. 2-minute cooldown. Costs 10 MP.

  5. Idle Strike: After remaining perfectly still for 6 seconds, your next basic attack (fist, thrown rock, weapon) is empowered, dealing 150% damage and having a slight chance to stun a low-level target. Must be used within 10 seconds of charging.
