Synopsis

Chapter 1 - The Game Begins

Nothing belongs to me except my OC

Reviews mean a lot to me and I'll read them all..

Where am I?

Ugh... I think... I died?

Fuck... my head hurts.

Is this the afterlife?

I tried looking around to see where I was.

To my dismay, all I could see around me was an endless black void.

Seriously? Even if I wasn't all that religious, I still thought there would be some sort of afterlife or reincarnation.

I suddenly heard a robotic voice inside my mind and then saw a blue screen pop up in front of me.

[Begin]

What?

[You have been chosen to become the next Gamer.]

Wait a second... you mean one of those stories with insanely overpowered main characters?

Those wish fulfilment fanfictions where the main character does whatever the hell he wants.

That's... awesome!

[Exactly, now please can we begin the process.]

I'll get to that in a minute, I don't remember how I died, so uh, could you tell me?

[You fell down a flight of concrete stairs at the subway and snapped your neck.]

Oh for fuck's sake, I didn't expect to go out with a blast but seriously?

How did my family and friends react?

[Like any other funeral, tears were shed and stories were told.]

Ah.. Well I don't really know what I was expecting.

.. I suppose that we should get this thing started then.

I selected begin by concentrating on it with my mind.

[Let us begin, choose your name.]

Ah.. I have to choose carefully now don't I.

I don't want choose something stupid or overly edgy.

I spent a while thinking, and finally settled on using the bake of a character I liked.

Alright, I've made my decision, my name will be Cain.

I'll decide my last name later I guess.

[Very well then, Cain, now we start body creation.

Usually Gamers always pick the same kind of body, so I have already made the usual body gamers like to make.]

I looked at the body that appeared in front on me.

It was about 5'11 - 6', had a handsome face, and a lean, muscular body.

Yeah, that's pretty good.

I'll go for black hair.

And.. let's go for purple eyes.

As for skin tone, I'll go for a pale white.

Okay... maybe I look a little edgy.

Whatever, it's not as if other gamers aren't a little edgy.

Yeah, I think that's done now, alright, what's next Game?

[Now we move on to one of the more interesting parts]

[You can choose a personality flaw, and in return you will get a powerful perk]

Oh right, I've seen these before although I'm not sure if I want to do this, I've seen people screw themselves over and get a weak body

Game, you said that I'd only get personality flaws, right?

[That is the case, in past Game systems, it was possible to acquire both personality flaws and physical flaws, but this has been revamped on my operating system. Now, you will only be able to receive personality flaws.]

That sounds..a little too good to be true. There has to be some sort of drawback, right?

[Correct. The personality flaws received will be significantly worse. They will be harder to remove and will hinder your decision making.]

The perks I get from taking a flaw will be significant and aid me throughout my journeys right?

[Indeed, they are incredibly useful.]

Okay.. if that's the case.. I'll take one.

[Flaw gained!

Dragon Sin of Wrath

Small things will send you into a rage. When you take revenge, you return it a thousandfold.]

[Perk gained!

Magical Prodigy

You are blessed in all forms of magic and your INT and WIS gains are doubled.]

Okay, that's a great perk, but the sin isn't great.

Getting pissed off over the smallest of things is gonna hinder my judgement.

...After not so much thought, I've decided to take another flaw!

[Flaw gained!

Lion Sin of Pride

You have a mountain-sized ego that only grows as you become stronger. You take great offence when anyone looks down

on you or challenges you. At times you believe you are greater than you actually are.]

[Perk gained!

Supernatural reflexes

Dexterity gains are doubled

You react extremely quickly to attacks]

That's pretty good, but that sin is pretty annoying.

I probably shouldn't take a third flaw...

Meh.. It's not like I can get a weak body or some shit like that anyway,

Alright, third times the charm. Another flaw, Game.

[Flaw gained!

Inhumane

You are willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish your selfish goals. You will commit atrocities and betray those who trust you for your own gain.

People are instinctively wary of you. -30% CHA]

[Perk gained!

Exceptional Mana

Your mana is extremely powerful and you have a huge mana pool.

Damage of all spells is doubled, Mana capacity is doubled]

That was a bad decision on my part..

But then again, I'm a gamer, aren't I?

From the stories I've read, gamers would generally commit numerous atrocities.

I mean.. I'll end up killing for exp, wont I?

I don't know..

At least the perk is good.

Alright I guess, what now?

[A few more things before your journey begins.]

[Item added to inventory - Common Gacha Token]

[To use your Gacha Token, say inventory in your mind and select the token]

[Gacha Tokens have many different qualities, here's a list.

Qualities range from

Common

Uncommon

Rare

Epic

Legendary

Mythical

Divine]

Alright then, let's hope I get something nice.

[Item used - Common Gacha Token]

[Skill received!

Hakai

Divine

The power granted to the gods of destruction able to destroy anything and everything.

Mana cost depends on amount destroyed]

HOLY SHIT

IS THIS A JOKE?

THE BROKEN ABILITY THAT BEERUS USED TO EXECUTE ZAMASU?

THE POWER WIELDED BY THE GODS OF DESTRUCTION?

[Gamer's mind activated]

[That's insanely lucky, but you should keep in mind that the most you can destroy at this point is perhaps a few twigs, don't expect to be destroying planets. Not yet at least]

No need to burst my bubble. Anyway, it's got huge potential for growth, and in general it's a really fucking awesome ability.

Also, why did you activate gamer's mind?

[You were annoying me. I just want to get this process over with so that we can have fun.]

[Now, usually you would get to choose a class, but because of your new skill, your class has been locked into an exclusive class]

[Class chosen - Destroyer

+4 STR +2 DEX +2 VIT +4 INT +4 WIS -1 LCK per level]

Woah...

That's awesome, and those stat gains are great, although that negative luck hurts a little.

[That reminds me, I need to explain how your stats work]

That's not really needed, I've read gamer fanfictions.

[Either way, it is still standard protocol to explain how stats work to gamers.]

[Strength - Increases physical power

Vitality - Increases health, body toughness and regeneration

Dexterity - Increases speed and reflexes

Intelligence - Increases magic power

Wisdom - Increases mana capacity and control of mana

Charisma - Increases beauty, acting ability and makes people more likely to trust you

Luck - Increases chance of getting better items from Gacha Tokens, increases chance of finding treasures and makes negative events less likely to happen]

What now?

[It is time to decide your first world, now here are your options, RWBY, Marvel, DC, Naruto, Dragon Ball Z, High school DxD, Percy Jackson, Dragon Ball Super]

Not much option is there?

So many of these have ridiculously strong characters. Clearly Marvel, DC, both Dragon Balls, and DxD are out.

I have a feeling that heroes in Marvel and DC aren't gonna be big fans of me..

I didn't read Percy Jackson, so that's off the list, I'd rather know what to expect exactly from my first world, thank you.

That leaves Naruto and RWBY.

Naruto sounds nice.. but it isn't a great option for me.

First of all, I imagine people like Orochimaru and Danzo would want to experiment on me and my Hakai. Maybe I'm being paranoid, but there's no way in hell that I'm taking that chance.

Add on the fact that villages are constantly warring with each other.. I'd be forced to choose a side.

There are just too many variables for my liking.

In RWBY, I'd be able to lie about Hakai and say that it's my semblance although people would eventually get suspicious. RWBY characters are also much weaker than Naruto characters , with exception of the brother gods, but they're nowhere to be found.

One question game, does my mana count as magic or aura? Because Ozpin would definitely be interested in me, which is currently something I'd rather not have.

[It depends. You have an option to mask your mana into whatever magical energy you want. Different worlds have different names for 'Mana' but in the end it is simply different aspects of the core idea.

If you want to swap between using aura and magic, you can ask me. It doesn't actually change anything though, it just makes people sense your mana differently.]

That's pretty cool. Thanks for that I guess.

Anyway, without further to do, I choose RWBY!

[Alright. RWBY it is, but we have two more things]

[Human/Faunus

Human

A bog standard human, literally nothing special about them.

Faunus

A human with some animal features. Faunus are gifted with night vision, enhanced senses and the traits of whatever race their Faunus side is. It should be noted that there is heavy discrimination against Faunus in the world of RWBY.]

I'm guessing that Faunus type is random..

I know Faunus get heavily discriminated against but l can just destroy anyone that has the guts to discriminate against me.

From a gamer standpoint, it's probably the better decision to make as I could get a great Faunus race.

I've been.. overall extremely lucky so far so I'm going to trust my luck and hope I become an awesome Faunus.

Faunus it is.

[Race chosen - ? Faunus]

A question mark?

What's up with that?

[You'll have to find out what Faunus you are yourself, only then will the full Faunus effects be triggered.]

.. Alright? I guess that's fine.

Anyways, are we done now?

[Before we begin, there are 3 gifts you will receive]

[Observe

Observe a person's/item's stats and information]

[Gamer's Mind

Protects the wielder from all mental attacks

Keeps the wielder calm in extremely stressful situations

Prevents the wielder from being traumatised]

[Gamer's Body

Your body is similar to that of a video game character's.

Regenerate back to full HP after a good night's rest. The regeneration effect is less effective depending on how uncomfortable you are. Sleeping on a rock slab will heal you significantly less than sleeping in a warm bed.

Eating food also gives you a short burst of extremely high regeneration, this affect only applies when the host is not in combat.

You can go without sleep for a month, food for a month, and water for a week.]

Nice, but shouldn't I get ID create and destroy? From what I've read, they are pretty standard and important skills for a gamer.

[You're literally going to remnant, a world flooded with monsters, the entire world is an ID]

Okay, okay. Fair point.

But what about after Remnant?

[You won't be receiving ID create/destroy, most of the worlds I imagine you'll go to have many monsters anyway. You will also receive many quests overtime that will net you exp.]

Well... whatever I guess.

[Are you ready to enter your first world?]

Yes. I am.

[World chosen - RWBY - a month before canon]

My first fanfic, I'm gonna write a lot more next chapter, anyway if you like this idea, do review.

Do note Cain will face more challenges in the second world but will still be OP.

Cain is going to be very OP in RWBY, also he's not gonna be lucky from now on, he got lucky with his race and his gacha but from now on, hes gonna get shit. I appreciate reviews and if you have ideas dm Salt#1696.
