Darius groans as he wakes up with an awful hangover. His eyes open a crack, causing him to wince from the bright light around him. That’s strange, my room is never this bright. He thought before he slowly opened his eyes again. He finds that he is in a forest instead of his bedroom where he was expecting to be, which causes him to sit up quickly, looking around repeatedly.
Where the hell am I? He thought as he looked around confused This can’t be a dream, can it? It feels too real. He slowly tried to stand, finding that he had a hard time gaining his balance he crawled over to a tree. He used the tree to help him stand, shaking his head to try and clear it somewhat.

Darius’ eyes widened in surprise when the window appeared before him “Oh what the hell?” He shouted as he shook his head. “What kind of shit is this?”
----------------------------------------
Welcome Darius Martin, to The System. You have been randomly selected to be a champion of your world. To this end you have been brought to another to learn of the threat that is coming.
----------------------------------------
He watched as the window faded, taking some time to process the information he just read. “Well, shit, I definitely can’t dream up something like that.” He looked around again for anything interesting. Seeing nothing he decided to do a bit of testing. “Well, if I have a system, hmm. Menu? Not that, uh Status.”

Darius quickly read his Status screen “Huh, that doesn’t look too bad for a spread, looks like other then luck each attribute applies to a stat.” He shook his head and he started to walk before he was interrupted by another screen.

“What? A blessing? Who the fuck are the three?” Darius said as he started to walk through the forest, keeping an eye out for anything he could use. “I can’t do much with this at the moment, I’ll have to remember to ask someone about all this when I get to civilization. Right now I need some shelter, water, and food.” He walked for a while, trying to find either a cave or a cliff he could set up a base in or against.

“Quests, huh, that’s helpful at least.” Darius spoke as he continued to walk. After a couple of hours he manages to find an outcropping of rock that he thinks might make a decent shelter. He looks around for any signs of water. “I don’t want to lose track of this place, I wonder. Map” At the command a screen appears in front of him, showing a map of the area he is in, only showing the terrain that he had traveled.
He hummed as he tried to figure out how to control the map, learning that he can lightly touch it to move and zoom the map. After a little bit of working at it, he figured out that he can set a small number of waypoints, setting one up at the outcropping of stone before he closed the map and started to walk through the forest again to try and find water.
