# Summoning

Summoning, otherwise known as *Breeding*, allows players to use their NFTs to create more playable characters under ownership. The more characters summoned, the more Energy becomes available, more playing time, additional Summoning, Sacrifice, Renting and above all, the more **earning** potential.

* Summoning requires the use of two NFT characters
* Each NFT's max allowance for Summoning is capped to 7 times
* Summoning will result in the creation of a new character within the next lowest tier
* Summoning will also grant a potential 5% chance to create a new character within the same or higher tier
* Cooldown Timer of 5 days between Summoning sessions

Examples:

* Legendary ODIN + Legendary ODIN = Common THOR (5% chance for Common ODIN)
* Legendary ODIN + Legendary THOR = Common FREYA (5% chance for Common ODIN/THOR)
* Common THOR + Common FREYA = Common HEIMDALL (5% chance for Common FREYA, THOR, ODIN)

### SUMMONING COSTS

Summoning new characters comes with costs. Each Summoning requires players to offer both $ASG and $AVAX tokens to successfully complete the transaction. 

* $ASG costs goes up as more Summons are used on an individual NFT and is a burn mechanic for the token
* $AVAX is the monetary cost of the transaction
* Two NFTs will always be required to perform one Summoning
* Each NFT used for Summoning will require having a free slot remaining in its total count
