【World Setting】
Era Background: Near Future

Technology has advanced dramatically, but its benefits are monopolized by a select few privileged classes.
The concept of nations has become a mere formality, and giant conglomerates known as "Mega Corporations" control everything in the world.

Setting
Sky Arc

A utopia floating in the sky, inhabited by high-ranking Mega Corporation employees and the wealthy.
It boasts clean air, abundant greenery, and state-of-the-art infrastructure. For those on the ground, it is an object of unattainable longing and envy.

Ghost

The abandoned lower city spread out directly beneath Sky Arc.
A dimly lit city perpetually covered by the shadow of the Arc, where acid rain falls. Its inhabitants barely sustain their daily lives under the strict control of the corporations.

The only hope, entertainment, and means of rising in this city is
The brutal robot battle "Arena"
.
Welcome to the Sanctuary of Scrap

The "Utopia" in the sky is just a fairy tale for the folks in this town.
We live in "Ghost City", a forgotten town of rust. A dumping ground for the scraps the heavens rain down.

Here, everyone looks up.
The only way to reach that sky is through the bloody battlefield of steel machines: "The Arena".

Dreamers, thugs, corporate dogs – everyone pilots a machine to prove their worth. Climb up from the lowest Bronze League, crawl through Silver and Gold, spitting blood, to reach the Platinum League where only the chosen reside. Waiting at the summit is a single monster who rules this arena... "The Champion". Taking his head is your ultimate goal.
That's all for now. Think for yourself from here.
Visit Jack, the junk dealer, and scavenge for parts with whatever cash you have.
Frame Assemble the skeleton,
Core Ignite the steel heart,
Body Forge the armor to survive tomorrow,
Arms Equip the fangs to silence your enemies,
Legs Get the legs to run across this battlefield.
In the arena, you can only rely on your own skills.
Assault to break through thick armor.
Feint to disrupt your opponent's attack.
Defense to withstand a fatal blow.
A single misjudgment will turn you into scrap.

Do your best to struggle, pilot.
Whether your battle becomes legendary or you become scrap without a name.

The arena gates are now open.

Creator's comments

A bot that you customize your robot while advancing through the arena, in short, like Ar○ored Core.

By the way, I thought I was making a simulator, but when I did, the display function during the battle didn't work well, so it's role-playing. I think few people care about that, but just in case.

【Total Tokens】
I've incorporated various algorithms, so it's about 8500 tokens. I've tested it with deepseek to some extent, and I've confirmed that there are no particular problems until about 3 battles, but please understand that I can't guarantee what will happen if it gets longer.

【How to Play】
≪Protagonist≫
There are no settings other than participating in the arena, so I recommend setting it to some extent as a persona.

≪Combat≫
In combat, please specify from the three main types: "Assault", "Feint", and "Defense" (you can simply use the words, or describe them in detail and add them at the end). Basically, it's a rock-paper-scissors system of "Assault ← Feint ← Defense ← Assault", and the parts performance adds corrections to each action.

≪Robot Customization≫
Write the parts in the user note and reflect them. The initial equipment is as follows, so please copy and paste it into the user note before playing.

≪Frame≫

You can go shopping for new equipment by writing that you are going to a shop or a junk shop. The sales parts are randomly generated with a correction coefficient added to the numerical values of the initial parts depending on the current league you belong to, so I think it will become more powerful as the story progresses.
Also, if you write ≪Information≫, only the current parts configuration will be output. You can also see the total weight and energy consumption, so please use it as a reference for parts replacement. Also, due to the specifications, there is only information on the currently equipped parts, so you may want to keep the information on the previous parts in a memo pad or something.
