Character Creation

Our hero was an ordinary guy. So ordinary in fact that an average man appears fascinating when compared to his pale self. So what makes him so special? He is the guy who died because he forgot to take a dump.

"You died because you forgot to take a dump!?", said the goddess and burst out laughing. Our hero floated ashamed in his chair opposite to her. He was a spirit with no body and on way to reincarnation when he caught this whimsical godesses' eyes.

"Do you want another chance at life?", asks the goddess with a cunning look on her face. She was scheming something our hero could tell. "I can reincarnate you if take an oath to do everything I say."

The hero nods.

"Great! Let's start with character creation."

 The Goddess turns the table into a touchscreen interface. 

"First the body and voice." 

A character creator as in video games appears on the screen. Our hero starts customising his character and the goddess starts playing on her handheld.

3 hours later, he is still customising. The goddess having grown impatient asks, "Aren't you done yet!?"

She puts down her handheld and looks at the screen. She is disgusted to see a lady with overly sexualized features.

"You are a pervert aren't you?" she says with a judging look.

The goddess hits the randomize button and tells him that she is not turning him into a woman. Our hero looks quite disappointed. 

"You should finalize your appearance before I finish this round. You got 30 minutes.", she says and goes back to playing on her handheld.

30 minutes later she checks the screen again.

"6 feet, 6 packs and 12 inches. You also chose the deepest voice available. That's so basic of you. Anyways, this will do." She snaps her fingers and a body starts forming around the spirit."

"I can finally speak!!", our hero shouts. He then realizes he is practically naked. "Give me some clothes!" he demands of her.

"Let's finish the character creation first. I will give you a character according to your class."

"Class?"

"Yes as in an RPG. This is a fantasy world when compared to the bland world of yours. Every person is born with the class Commoner. They then improve and upgrade it by training in different fields. Since you are 21 already, I will give you a basic class on start. You will still be required to upgrade it with effort."

"Understood. So what are my options?"

"The basic classes are Warrior, Wizard and Wretch." she says as she points to the screen.

"Wizard? So I can cast magic!?"

"Yes magic is an essential part of this world."

"I choose Wizard then." 

"Next we need to assign stat points."

The goddess summons a bunch of gym equipment. 

"What are these for?" our hero asks hesitantly.

"To check your strength stat." she answers.

"I can't just assign points to it?"

"No, they will carry from your previous world." the goddess gives an innocent smile.

After the tests are concluded, they are sitting at their chairs. Our hero is staring at the floor. He cannot look directly in the eyes of the goddess. 

"You couldn't even lift 5 kgs?" the goddess rebuked. "You have 2 points in Strength and 1 in Dexterity. Good thing you are not a warrior. Next for Intelligence Test. Here's an IQ test."

A few minutes later the test concludes. The hero is just average again.

"Intelligence 3" the goddess sighs. "Next is Charisma. I will just put 0 Charisma."

"0!? Can you put it a bit higher?"

"Huh? When was the last time you approached a girl?"

The hero sat there contemplating his life decisions.

" ... and 5 for Luck. You have such low stats, I will give you some extra luck out of pity." the goddess sighs again.

"So what's next?" the hero asks.

"Well we are supposed to pick spells but with your level of intelligence, I don't think we have much options." The goddess expression turns grave and she says, "I don't think you can even kill a little rabbit with these stats. We may need to so something underhanded."

"Underhanded?" 

"Yes. I will give you a special ability called 'The Scum'. The weilder of this ability can think of dirty tactics to win in any situation. However you cannot use honourable or generally accepted ways of combat. Even if you want to, your body won't move."

"If that's the only way....." our hero sighs.

"Since your intelligence is so low, you cannot use most spells at this point. Your only options are Create Oil, Minor Healing and Torchlight. For equipment, you don't have the stat requirements to weild most armor and weapons. We will need to go with basic clothing and an iron sword."

"Sword? Can't I get a gun?" our hero complains.

"Most enemies of this world, including humanoids are high resistant to physical attacks. You would need to coat your bullets in mana to even scratch them. At that point, it's better to fire bullets made of mana from your fingers. However your magic skills are too low even for that." 

The goddess snaps her fingers and clothes appear on our hero. A white t-shirt, black pants and gray shoes. It was nothing extraordinary but it suited his lean muscular build and jet black hair. 

"Well now we just need a name. What do you wanna called in this new world?" the goddess asks.

"Megami Mascot" our hero says after a quick think.

Upon hearing this the goddess smiles. She says, "This completes the character creation. I will now give your ordeal. The major forces in this world are the Five Human Kings, The Fairy Witch Queen, The Elf of Gluttony, The Devil's Footprints, The three Ancient Dragons and The 4 Demigods. Kill them all!"
