Welcome to Experience!
Huh. This is certainly new. A screen pops up in front of my incorporeal form in what I can only describe as a void. I can't feel my body but that has been the case for what has felt like a few centuries. Iv'e had enough time to just float around so any development at this point is very much welcome.
Experience is your personalized judgement. Your own life is measured and will be used as points for improving your next form of existence.
Judgement? Well as long as I'm not going to hell like so many others have said in my past life then I don't care what you call it. Not having to spend a lifetime as an animal with a human consiouness would be preferred though. Let's hope for the best.
Your worth is now being measured. Please wait...
I'll admit that while this is starting to seem like the start of my next great adventure beyond the infinite unkown, it could do without the subtly terrifying text. Only a few seconds passed before the next blue screen showed me the results of whatever Experience gave me.

Stolen novel; please report.
I vaguely remember feeling very cold all over before taking a very long nap. Probably a lonely death, which I'm begurdgingly happy about since that past suffering is most defintely my ticket to a happy second life. Past-life exploitation bonus, get!

The entirety of this scenario so far has been building up excitment in my bored soul but the moment I saw the option to change my world I knew I was starting to rush myself just to be closer to fulfilling some of my fantasies. Experience had truly been made for me. I expanded the choices and saw what worlds I was offered for simply knowing about their potential existence. Zombies? Too unsanitary. Fantasy? Maybe. Superhumans? Yeah, fuck no. One Piece? ...though I appreciate the offer I find myself fully aware of what this option means. I scroll down some more to find exactly what I was hoping I could choose.

Modifying System....Modification Complete
After changing worlds I continued to use my available points quickly to start my new life already. Keeping what should stay the same and taking what were essentially cheats was simple but I struggled to decide how to use the last of my points among skills. I looked through all the was available and finally settled on what I hoped would be assets to my survival. The blue screens disapeared again but a new one came back quickly asking me a "System Mandatory Question."
Are you a Boy or a Girl?
