Ahhhh, it was bliss. Darkness and a strange floating feeling. I could barely remember that just a few moments ago I was all over the train tracks. I mean, a little bit here, a little bit there. It was painless but gruesome. A simple dare by my buddies went wrong, and here I am.

My head hurt, and I didn't even think I still had a head. A deep voice basically screamed at me, scaring me shitless.

CONGRATULATIONS

Holy balls, that was loud.

"Um, congrats for what? All I did was die."

YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN FOR REBIRTH

"Why?"

*SHRUG*

"How is it physically possible to shrug that loudly?"

I'M A GOD. MORTAL LIMITS ARE A JOKE TO ME

"Wow, that's kinda cool. What do I have to do to be reborn?"

Torso Leg Arm Tail Head Customize

I clicked on all the tabs, and a list of each category popped up. I could have a T-rex head on a little velociraptor body. a 3D model displayed the hideous creature. There was a custom option on all of the categories. I tried the torso customization, and I realized I could make myself any body I want, but the more complicated it got, the more biomass I had to spend. 

I decided on a well-rounded body, not too muscular but not too lean. I made the head a smaller version of a T-rex, with some small ridges on the back of the neck. I had a decently long tail, so I put a hardened tip on it. It seemed useful to have as many weapons in my arsenal as possible. My legs were sturdy but not stocky. I had 3 toes with dull but thick claws on them, perfect for stomping. Now.... my arms. I wanted them to be almost like human arms but thicker and with claws on the end. I settled for a sturdy shoulder and forearm with 3 clawed fingers and a thicker thumb for grasping things. I had 200 Biomass left over, and I didn't want to waste anything. 

I basically gave myself brass knuckles, but they were hardened scales. I thickened the skin on my legs and strengthened the muscles on my arms. My teeth and claws all grew at least a half an inch. Finally, after all my upgrades, I was done. I had the perfect organism with what I could work with. I was ready.

At the bottom of the page was a button that read: Confirm. I mentally pushed it.
