Chris: Chosen ones are a battle group of next-generation battlers. How does the NFT interplay in the game?
Diego: The NFT will be the player that a person will use in the auto-battler game. Legendary Hero NFTs will earn more in-game currency tokens and more staking rewards than the future Epic and Rare NFTs that will be coming out when the game is closer to production.
Chris: Interestingly, the NFT has been created by an experienced team of Fork junkies. Please share more about the team and their successful work.

Chris: The Chosen Ones NFT are carefully crafted artwork collectibles. What are the unique traits and features of the NFT?
Diego: Each NFT has its own type of traits, like armour, headgear, colour, accessories, weapon, cloaks, facial expression, and many more. The main feature for a Legendary Hero NFT is in the upcoming auto-battler game, players can enjoy playing for up to 4 hours daily and earning more in-game currency tokens than you would with Epic or Rare NFT coming out later in the year. Also, only the Legendary Heroes will be able to earn staking rewards once the tokens are launched in June.
