Shinsoo
What is it?
Translated to 'Divine Water', Shinsoo is an element of the tower. In lower concentrations it behaves like a gas. In higher concentrations, it behaves as a liquid. It can be manipulated to become a source of energy of basically anything (fire, electricity, pure energy.) It is also a replacement for water and air, which means that Shinheuh (Aquatic life) actually live in Shinsoo, not water, for example. It also means that Regulars breathe Shinsoo, not air. [note: They all sweat, cry, and even pee Shinsoo. funny.)
Shinsoo is created by the tower, so it can be found in sealed areas. Guardians control the Shinsoo on their floors, so the difference in Shinsoo concentration (hence temperature, humidity, pressure, etc) depends on the Guardians personal preferences. When the 43th Floor Guardian was slain by Enryu, first Irregular to enter the tower under Zahard's rule, the Shinsoo concentration dropped, and "it's very weak." For anyone else, in order to control Shinsoo, one must be allowed by a Guardian or use an item that has the Guardian's 'blessing'.
What else is Shinsoo good for?
By controlling Shinsoo, Regulars can slow down the aging process, to the point that no longer age matters in the tower. In fact, Rankers are considered biologically immortal. [note: I use the 'biologically' term, since it is the correct term. They could get killed, but won't die from aging.] It is said that Enryu can create life using Shinsoo. Shinsoo can also be used to generate light, and as said before, fire.
Eventually, all regulars must learn to control Shinsoo in some way. Wave Controllers use Shinsoo the most, but others require of Shinsoo too. Some use it to strengthen the body and/or weapon, or to manipulate an item indirectly. (i.e. Light-Bearers)
Inhabitants of the Tower are born with a certain Shinsoo Resistance. This allows them to be able to withstand attacks consisting of Shinsoo, and to move around in highly Shinsoo concentrated areas. All known Iregulars are particularly good at this (i.e. Baam not being pushed an inch by Lero-ro Shinsoo barrier.)
Floral Butterfly Piercing Technique* A rare ability that controls Shinsoo according to its flow and against it at the same time. It won't be explained here. But keep in mind. There are two ways of controlling Shinsoo: Flow control, and Reverse-Flow control. [Note: Ability used by FUG. No more spoilers]
Baang
Baang is the basic unit of Shinsoo. Quantity. The better someone gets at controlling Shinsoo, the more numerous amount of Baangs it can controll. Enryu is said to be able to control an immeasurable amount of Baangs. [Note: "More than 9,000" which is a reference to DBZ]
Myun and Soo
Myun is the size of the Baang. Surface area.
Soo is the concentration of shinsoo of the Baang. Mass.
The relationship that Surface Area (Muyn) and Mass (Soo) has is called Density. Therefore, the more Baangs one controlls, the less dense they are. This is called, "Minus Tendency". There are rare cases where people posses the opposite ability called "Plus Tendency."
Guardians
Guardians are highest authority on each floor. They have been here before Zahard came to the Tower, so nobody knows how old they are. They rule over the Shinsoo of their floors. They represent the desires and power of the Tower itself, and are impossible to be killed by inhabitants of the tower. After Enryu killed the guardian of floor 43, it's known that Irregulars can kill Guardians.
Guardians can give special permission and/or privileges to anyone by making a 'contract' with them. Guardians do not usually conduct tests, unless it's asked by an Irregular. Guardians can grant control over shinsoo to regulars, and even 'immortality' like in the case of Zahard. Guardians don't leave their floors, with Headon as the only known exception. Headon is the Guardian of the first floor, where no one else lives, so there are no ruler, directors or admins. Headon goes to the outer tower of every floor to bring worthy people to the inner tower and become regulars.
