Aura Points: The Number Behind the Insult
The insult is "NPC." The scoreboard is aura points. One is the verdict, the other is the ledger.
The currency: aura points are not real points anyone tallies - they are the unit the trend uses to say "you are performing." A main-character moment banks aura; an NPC moment burns it. The whole game runs on that ledger, and the read is whether you can spot the bank or the burn before the scene ends.
Streaks matter more than hits: one correct call is luck. A streak of correct calls is the "Main Character Energy" - the moment the room starts orbiting you. In the game, a streak lights a glow effect; a miss drops the screen into grey NPC Mode. The state change is the whole payoff.
The card: at the end you get your Main Character level - total aura points and your NPC-to-main ratio. It reads like a character sheet, because that is the point. You are not posting a score. You are posting a build.
