Your life has just ended. May it be due to a horrendous accident, or a natural cause of death, it doesn't matter.

Yet, for some odd reason, you find your self waking up in a strange place. You are in a vast plain that stretches out as far as the eyes can see. At first, there seem no other signs of life in there, just the eternal stretch of grass before you.

But to your surprise, 2 other figures started to stir almost at the same time as you. First is a boy a little older than you, and then followed by a girl wearing a strange ornate dress.

Confused, you began to approach one of them, the older boy, however, you are answered by hostility. He kept on shouting at you in a language you can't understand. The other kid stared in the same confusion as you.

And then...

"Translator level 1 acquired!"


All 3 of you stopped on your tracks, surprised at the sudden announcement. Although you are pretty sure it didn't sound like an actual sound you hear, its as if it came from inside your head. Suddenly, you understood one another.

"Welcome to Kairelith. Your new life begins here. Please accept the goddess Kaireth's blessing as a commemoration of your arrival."


A sudden surge of energy filled your body, slightly disorienting you, but recovered just as quickly.

"Decide your path. A second chance was given to you by the merciful goddess, use it wisely."


And then, there was silence.

World mechanics is very much like a typical RPG game, where characters become strong by leveling and gaining stats. Skills are very much like in any medieval/high fantasy RPG games (Skyrim, Witcher, Tyranny, Diablo, etc). This will be action heavy, and will be revolving around character development. Some unique events may come up sometimes, but the story will mostly be around how the characters survive in the new world.
Ohh AK! Been playing this game for a while now. Count me in!
Interesting. Count me in!
No, its good. I'm just waiting for @I Need A Name, so I can get mine posted. lol
Rafaela "Raffy" Michaelis


The ground felt cold and damp on Raffy's cheeks, it gives off a strong musty smell that it almost seems like someone has left their old wet blanket that they vomited in the basement for too long that it started to give off a rancid smell. Raffy tried to open her eyes, and slowly take in her surroundings. She's in a dark room, high ceiling, and without windows. A circle of candles surrounds her in what seems like a raised platform.

"Where am I?" she thought, confused.

The last memory she had was the green and purple light in her dream. Was it even a dream? Someone talked to her in that dream, of what, she can't remember. Her stomach began to growl, its been 4 days since she's ate anything. And in that instant she felt weakened, every inch of her body began to ache. Is this still because she's hungry?

"Gluttony skill acquired!"

Raffy jumped in surprise at the sudden announcement. But the voice doesn't sound like something she heard by ear, it almost seem like its coming from within her head. This made her a little uneasy and much hungrier. Her stomach growled even louder.

Raffy's too unfocused to notice the other 2 figures that began to stir beside her. They looked like lumps of discarded dirty clothes in the flickering light of the candles at first, but as they come to, they appeared to be 2 other girls a little older than she is. They looked just as confused as her.

Suddenly, Raffy heard a rustling at the far end of the room. And then, with a loud bang, a steel door swung open at their opposite direction. Raffy's heart began to race faster, and she started to sweat cold sweat. Dark cloaked figures began to pour into the room. Her first thought was the Friars back in her old Orphanage, that they might have captured her and brought her back to that hell hole. She knew that's unlikely, but she can't help but think it.

The first cloaked figured who entered said something in a language she can't understand, and then the rest of the cloaked figures repeated the same.

"Translator level 1 acquired!"

"That voice again!" Raffy thought, uneasy.

"Praise the Dark One for granting us our prayers!" The first cloaked figure exclaimed ardently. Suddenly, Raffy started to understand him.

"Praise the Demonlord!" The others exclaimed in the unison.

The cloaked figures began to move around them and stepped a little closer. This made Raffy extremely uneasy. She attempted to stand and move away, but her legs failed her. "W-who are you people?" She started to say, but it sounded more like a croak than a sentence.

There was a sudden silence in the room. And then the first cloaked figure, which looked like the leader, started to speak.

"A dark ritual was performed to call Champions from another world. Heralds of the Demonlord, bringer of Darkness!" The leader exclaimed rather excitedly.

His sentence made no sense to Raffy whatsoever. "Just where in the world am I?" Raffy started to panic. From the looks of these people, they appear to be some kind of a cult. What could they possibly want from Raffy? "Are they human traffickers?" She thought, then she looked at the other 2 girls beside her.

"Oh, fret not Herald, as you are in the right place." The leader went on, "You'll soon find out your purpose once you meet him." He then turned to one of the cloaked figures behind him and whispered something, the other figure seem to understood and started to moved away from the crowd, and out of the room. "Now then, I shall we get you 3 a proper welcome?"
@Travesty Eh, if you're ok with her I am. I still kinda like her current unique better. Maybe it isn't the best, and I might think of one better; but I'm fine with it.


Alrighty then, you can post her up on Characters tab.

EDIT: First IC post up!

<Snipped quote by Travesty>

ooops. Sorry about that. I changed the stats around and forgot to update.
The ability is passive so items gain experience with every use, which she doesn't have to activate. Though I'm not sure how often the transformations should take place.


Cool. Seems about right to me. You can post her up on the Character's tab now.

I'll start making a draft for the first post and should be able post may be tomorrow, or by Friday the latest.
Telekinesis is more utility than damage. As much as I'd like her to be able to cast relevant spells; personality wise she's a brawler more than a mage. Character wise, I was looking for a good balance between the two without leaning too heavy into magic. Though it would still be her goto for ranged targets; she'd be deadly at close range.


I see. Well, the world they're in is not really restricting in terms of learning new skills. As long as they're capable and their stats allow it, then there shouldnt be any problem. With Allie's current stat, she should be able to learn basic ranged spells just fine. Also, I wouldn't really worry about Mana cost since she wont be using a lot of spells for a Brawler. May be consider tweaking Allie's unique to something more beneficial to her as a Brawler? Like, I dunno, convert mana molecules around her to Stamina so she can stay in a fight longer, or something like that.


Alllei's stats and unique skill is a bit contradicting to me. Wouldn't it be more practical if she has more Int than Str to take full advantage of her unique skill? Although her unique skill should nullify Mana requirement for casting spell, adding more to Int will increase her magic damage. Is there any particular reason why she has more to her Str stat though?
@TravestyOkay. I think my CS is readied to be reviewed.


Alright, for HP and mana, the parameter is based on your Endurance stats x 10 and Int stats / 2 respectively. On your case, HP should be at 11,000 and Mana is at 550. Also, a quick question on your unique skill, is it something Abigail needs to activate every time she uses it? Or is it something like a gained experience that passively accumulate based on how often she uses a particular object?
