To better understand what a Resonator is, we must study the world in which we find ourselves.
I would remind you to retrieve my writing on the World Building of Wuthering Waves where I explain in detail the concept of frequency and sound, which deeply characterises this world.
The most important concept I could extract from that writing to introduce us to the theme of the Resonators is certainly the fact that after the advent of the Lament, matter, information and energy are all reduced to the vibrating frequency.
Everything in the world of Solaris-3 is made up of frequencies and these are subject to an irreversible decay process.
As frequencies decay, they can merge with other frequencies, acquiring new form and unique patterns. It is precisely on this last concept that my writing on Resonators will be based.
By definition, individuals with the ability to resonate with certain things in existence and manipulate their frequencies are known as Resonators.
A Resonator is a human being, who, after the advent of The Lament and thus with the change of natural laws in the world, in a certain circumstance of their life has come into intense contact with a matter or information whose frequencies have "resonated" with them, enabling them to experience what is known as Awakening.
Awakening is thus the act underlying the birth of a Resonator, who becomes susceptible to the perception of frequencies.
This resonance with frequencies, depending on the frequencies, results in the emergence of a power in that resonator. This power will be called Forte or more simply Resonance Ability. According to experts, Resonator's abilities are often influenced by their past experiences and subconscious mind.
A Resonator's Forte is composed of countless invisible Wavebands. When the Remnant Wavebands are compiled to form a complete Resonance Chain, their Forte receives an upgrade in power.
A resonator's Forte is extremely related to their awakening, to the frequencies they resonated with, and thus to what they experienced firsthand at that particular moment.
Resonator's Fortes are manifested through the Tacet Mark, a symbol that is born at the moment of awakening.
We are not given to understand the reason behind the body part of the Tacet Mark manifestation, but I am inclined to believe that it is in the body part where the Resonator had most contact with external frequencies at the moment of awakening.
Each resonator possess a Resonance Liberation Energy, a kind of internal battery closely linked to their own Tacet Mark. When this energy reaches its maximum cap, the Tacet Mark expands and becomes luminous.
