Hood by Hood
Common
The backbone. Standard grounds, standard hoodies, maybe a beard. Low points, high dignity — most of the block is common and the block is doing fine.
03 ✶ How rare is rare
Rarity,
hood-coded
Every hood is scored across 11 trait layers. Rare values are worth more points, points add up, and the total decides the tier. Auras, laser eyes, gold foil, companions that judge you — the deeper the tier, the fewer the hoods.

The scoring
Four tiers
Indexed hoods score between 1 and 21 points. Nothing is weighted by hand after mint — the score falls out of the layers the generator dealt.
Uncommon
One or two layers start misbehaving. Bitcoin eyes, gold foil, a chain, a meme tag that has aged badly. Enough to be noticed in a grid of twelve.
Epic
Auras appear. Companions appear. Multiple rare layers stack on the same hood and the score climbs into the teens.
Legendary
Gold Lux grounds, holographic auras, halos. Roughly 40 hoods in the whole generative supply cross this line.
The layers
What’s actually
under the hood
Counted live from the trait data, rarest value first. Most layers are optional — the coverage figure is how many hoods carry that layer at all.

The 16 grails sit outside the curve
One-of-ones are not scored. They do not roll traits, they do not compete for a tier — they are hand-built tributes and there is exactly one of each.
