'These fuckers will pay.'
In a completely white room, an man which you could assume was dressed for an formal party looked around quite cautiously, as if analysing everything the void had to offer, which was, well, nothing.
'Anyway, I'll deal with those guys later, for now, where the fuck am i?'
[You are in a safe spot]
'Oh great, one moment i am making an deal which is suddenly interrupted by my enemies, then i find myself in a strange room and now i am hearing things. What fucking god did i offend for them to ruin my day like this.'
[You offended none. Yet. But i digress, let me introduce myself, i am the Game. Ever wished your life was like a game, well here i am to make those dreams come true]
'And the voice in my head has delusions, just what i fucking needed.'
[I assure you i am not delusional, after all i saved you from the boredom that is being dead]
'Funny, i don't remember dying at all.'
[An bullet directly to the head does that to someone]
The man widened his eyes and searched for something in his pockets, pulling out an pocket mirror he proceeded to look for something in head with the mirror, finding an hole he sighed and put away the utensil.
"Well fuck, isn't the voice in my head right?"
[Of course i am, now do you believe me?]
'I guess.'
[Well then, with that out of the way we can proceed normally.]

'Huh, what is a average human's stutus?'
{Normally ten on every stat, some variances here and there, but yours is pretty good}
'What exactly is this charisma? sound like an odd thing to keep track of.'
{CHA is calculated by your lip service,how handsome and how good at convincing someone you are. Basically an stat of how likely you are to get good impressions and win arguments}
'Sound about right. Anyways, how am i supposed to "create an new body" and why do i need an new one?'
[This one has an bullet in its head and we need an "updated" one. Don't worry, you can keep your appearence if you want to]
'Thank god, it would feel strange having a new body suddenly. Well then, i want an body exactly like my current one but with natural gray hair. Don't think I'll find dye wherever the fuck i end up next.'
His vision suddenly went black, but as quickly as it went away it returned, it was better, as if his old body wasn't as alive as this one.
'So that update he said was, i guess, Gamer's Body.'
[That is, indeed, correct. Your old body had an lot of problems that would need to be fixed so making an new one was easier]
'The price for living the dream.'
'As for a name, i guess Gray Fraudator is good enough.'

[There are multiple beings that are death, but only one has the right to be called Death, you'll meet him someday, maybe]
'The more you know, anyways, how do i pick those advantages?'
{You spin the wheel host}
'Are those flaws really bad and can i rid myself of them'

'Spin the wheel then'
