Somewhere

Somewhen

No clue

I don't know how long I was in the void. It could've been days, months, weeks, or even years. It was just me and my thoughts for that time frame however, and it sucked balls.

One minute I'm at home the next I here wherever here is. And so I had no other choice to wait. After all, I was here for a reason I just had to be patient and an opportunity will....

And then I was back, alone, in the apartment Livingroom, but as an orb, however. The room itself didn't change, being it's usual cluttered self. But when I turned, after finally figuring out how to move, towards the table where the game was supposed to be, I saw a large central orb with faint trails of light highlighting pillars. Seeing no other option I approached the orb. As I approached the orb, an interface popped up, facing me.

 I did not understand how I could finish my character sheet without the necessary equipment, hands and a character sheet for one. And a character sheet popped out of nowhere. Hmm... Okay so that's a thing that can happen apparently. Snap out of it, focus. If I can make a character sheet I should be able to make a body, or hand for that matter.

2 Hours Later_________________________________________

So many hands... so many hand.... so many.....

Okay so things didn't go quite as smooth as I had first thought it would. I made hands alright, a bunch of freaking severed hands. The blood, skin, bones, muscle, and other inside and outside bits didn't want to stay together. Instead I got gore exploded everywhere and in places I didn't think were possible for a 3D Spirit Body. 

Fortunately, I discovered that there was a self cleaning feature for the room... every 1 hours. Also, when I was in direct contact with my hands, they seemed to stay together only exploding whenever I stopped being contact with my hand or tried to make a not so human hand. Thinking about it the only way for me to make a hand, that I could keep from exploding, was to not stop touching it and keep it humanish.

Suddenly an idea I hadn't thought of occurs to me. Why not just make a complete body and not some VR knockoff. Thinking about it all I need is enough energy for this to work. Alright, now to make a whole body to house my core. How hard can that be...

Concentrate, energy whirls, Concentrate, even more energy whirls, Okay that's good but it's too spread out, now Condense and Shape, the energy proceeds to condense down into a somewhat human shape. I am temporarily blinded, oh yeah eyes. If I remember my anatomy correctly, eyes are special gel sacs made up of several layers and lenses, and nerves that catch light and convert it into electrical impulses, done by the optic nerve which also transmits them to the brain allowing most being the ability to see. 

That's too complicated I'll just move some stuff around here, add some eyes there, and a pair of transmitters and receivers, and now I can see... again. Now that my Avatar's out of they way, I walk, but mostly float over to the sheet set before me. Summoning a pencil I prepared to get to work, when I notice some changes to my sheet had already occurred.

A dice appeared as soon as I read the words and seeing no other option I rolled. But not before making sure I looked more humanish. It might come up later. Additionally, I also pulled up a backstory guide sheet so I would know what I'm getting into, beforehand. I remember that there were some, pretty grisly options.

Part 1 of 4

Rolling... 2: Serf (Low-tier) Farmhand:

Description: "Born from simple origins, your family served as simple farmers for the local lord. It was a hard life, resulting in you spending most of your childhood and teen years as an only child. Fortunately, there was just enough food for the three members of your family to get by."

Skills: Harvester, Seed Sower, Plant Care, Plant Cultivation(Basic), hunger resistance, pain resistance, thermal resistances. 

Proficiency: Farmers Tool's (basic) 

Choose: Stoic(personality), Hardy(personal), or Attribute Bonus

Okay so.. <drums sound> and memories that are not wholly mine begin. They were like the description above, but more personal. There were people who I didn't know yet felt attached to. I worked everyday doing odd chores while the adults worked the field, as I was still too young to help with the harvest. Birthdays, village celebrations, funerals, weddings, and eventually me working in the fields. As the man who I could only assume was my father put it, " Son, ours is a simple life. This village was where ye' were born and it will be thy tomb. Fret not, you won't be lonely. Just try not to reach to far, for with a simple life like ours, it's often we get burnt when we reach for more stars."

Falling in love, dancing, sex, and more harvests. It was more than likely that I would have died in this place as I was a simple farmer, from a simple family, and from a simple life. However life is rarely so kind as to allow things to remain the same forever, and that is why when adventure knocks it often occurs with a battering ram.

Part 2 of 4 

Choose 1 of 3: 

Alright that was terrifying. Not only that, but not only did I have my memories, but I also have My memories. Ugh, time travel paradoxes, or, no, another life perhaps. Or maybe? Looking at my choices I would probably say that it's pretty clear that this is some sort of artificial history tutorial scenario.
