Another Epic Tale

This is an Isekai/Other World RP, that will take inspiration mainly from titles such as RE: Monster, The Rise of the Shield Hero, and Konosuba. Given these references, you can get a vague idea of what I am going for; an adventure story. I'll be making use of an overlying plot, but only for events deemed necessary for the progress of the story. For everything else in between, it'll be sandbox-like at best.
Premise

Annually, the mortality rate around the world is approximately 44.5 million. Among those unfortunate individuals, are a select few who possess indomitable wills that forcefully reject the idea of being put to rest. Fortunately, there exists beings that have transcended the limits of the mortal realm and are referred to, by most, as gods. Among their many responsibilities, they also heed to the calls of restless souls that refuse the afterlife. You know, like yourself.

This might not be the best way to find out, but you have certainly died. It's not uncommon for souls to not recall how it happened, but as the shock slowly subsides, the moments that caused your demise along with your other memories of your past life, eventually resurface.

So here you are, suspended in a void of nothingness, speaking to a disembodied voice who's offering you another chance at life. Would you want to give a life of adventure a chance or are you satisfied with what you've done so far?

The fact that you're here right now kind of makes your answer obvious though.

The story will take place in the Country of Arcadia, but all characters will be citizens of the Merchant Kingdom, Avarice. How and why you ended up there, will find out in the first arc.
Quirks, Perks, and Gifts

Quirks and Perks pertain to your character's name notable physical capabilities and unique skills. So this may range from being an exceptional swimmer, acrobatic, or multilingual to possessesing an iron stomach, keen eyesight, or incredible memory.

As for Gifts, these are what you'd call powers that will be granted to your characters at the start of the story. They may come in the form of an ability (fire breathing, sprouting out draconic wings from one's back, or summoning a small dragon) or an item (a blade that creates explosions on contact, footwear that allows one to move faster or in unique ways, or a mask that transforms one's appearance when worn). These start out simple but will definitely progress overtime.

Taking inspiration from RE:Monster? Does this encompass its evolution system?

@Crow Let's say yes, but only to a certain degree. Nothing as drastic as seen in the manga and LN.

So back again with more questions:

If using an inhuman species where do we place the racial traits e.g if using a zombie: The fact that they are technically immortal, but are unable to regenerate from injuries. etc.

@Protean Pair

Oh so the racial traits are gifts or? But what about racial traits that are more or less guaranteed like Vampires drink blood etc.

@Ryougu Everything seems alright, only thing would be that Race should be Beastkin (Rabbit). Otherwise, everything else is cool. I'll follow up with those abilities.

@1Charak2 Nope, racial traits are gonna go under Perks and Quirks.

@geminironin it says in the CS template (above the code one) what to fill in under the tabs. So specifically it says we have no gear, and that perks and quirks will be determined by protean, based on the contents of the rest of your CS.

CS is a WIP. Thinking of keeping with the female beastkin theme. We're assembling a regular Isekai Charlie's Angels up in here!

Thinking of making either a lovably annoying monk, or a lovably annoying kind-of-bard type song magic user. Give or take the 'lovably' part, of course.

@Protean Pair
By the by, I should probably ask instead of just wait, but should I go ahead and post Miyato in the characters tab, or should I wait for my gift, quirks and perks before I do so?
