'''Ascension Arcadia''' is the premier enterprise for entertainment in [[Solution Nine]]<ref name=ANewChallenger>{{i|A New Challenger Appears}}, when speaking with Metem.</ref>.

==About==
The Ascension Arcadia's flagship facility is [[the Arcadion]], where they host the Ascension Arcadia Championship. During this Championship, fighters enhance their physical form with so called "Feral Souls"<ref>{{i|A New Challenger Appears}}, when speaking with Metem after entering the Arcadion: "The Arcadion has its own repository of feral souls, which our fighters utilize in battle. So potent are these souls, they alter the fighters' very forms."</ref> via their [[Regulator]] and fight one another in one-on-one or two-on-two (often called "tag team") match-ups. Barring few exceptions, most bouts are held within the Arcadion.
The Championship is divided into the following divisions:

* Light-Heavyweight
* Cruiserweight
* Heavyweight

Ascension Arcadia itself is formatted similarly to real-world [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_professional_wrestling_promotions professional wrestling promotions], with fighters following a script and performing in specific roles for entertainment purposes. The ultimate objective is to become the undisputed champion in each tier, and thereby rise up as the grand champion.<ref>{{i|A New Challenger Appears}}, when speaking with Metem after entering the Arcadion.</ref>

==Lore==
The championship traces its roots to a time in Alexandria long before the coming of the Turali people.
It was very different in the beginning, though, with matches pitting recreated simulacra against each other.
That's right─the very same that fought at your side. But with the advent of soul-derived resuscitation, battles to the death between living combatants became the norm─and all without any actual deaths.
The contest evolved once more after Zoraal Ja was made king. It was he who proposed the use of feral souls to enhance one's flesh, leading to the technology for it being devised.
So it was that combatants took on the power and likeness of beasts, and the audience experienced newfound heights of excitement!
However, when Zoraal Ja raised the banners of war to embark on his conquest, all feral souls were reserved for the army's use. We had no choice but to suspend operations at the Arcadion.

Rev.coll: Grammar, spelling cleanup. Accurate terminology. Mostly. Still learning the style guide here.
