They are primarily used in conjunction with the [[KI]] to calibrate the [[Great Zero]]'s [[KI-PS|KI Positioning System]] ("KI-PS"), but they can also be used to create custom [[marker missions]]. [[Explorer]]s have used these custom missions for everything from scavenger hunts to guided tours. | ||

Great Zero markers are invisible to anyone who does not have a KI, or who has not properly upgraded their KI to receive marker information. These markers are also invisible unless a properly-upgraded KI is within approximately 15 feet of their location. When in range, they will emit a quiet pulsing tone to aid in their discovery. | Great Zero markers are invisible to anyone who does not have a KI, or who has not properly upgraded their KI to receive marker information.

The missions are color-coded, using small lights around the outer rim of the KI's face: red for the first mission, and green for the second. Each requires collecting 15 markers, and both draw from the same pool. As markers are collected, they disappear for that KI user, and cannot be collected a second time. Progress is tracked through the lights on the KI, which brighten one at a time. Once a mission is completed, it must be "uploaded" back into the dispenser. | ||

Completion of the "green" mission enabled the individual to access the [[Great Zero Calibration Chamber]], and the calibration marker missions contained within. | ||

The markers used in standard calibration missions are located throughout the currently-accessible areas of [[Ae'gura]], as well as the [[D'ni neighborhood]]s along the wall of the cavern. Markers in explorer-created missions can be placed in any [[Age]], and missions can even span multiple Ages. | The markers used in standard calibration missions are located throughout the currently-accessible areas of [[Ae'gura]], as well as the [[D'ni neighborhood]]s along the wall of the cavern.
