---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Masses and masses of people, the horde seems to never end. Screams, whining and horror are the only things you could hear... I call them horses but they are no horse, their fur is as black as the furthest reaches of space and time while they are in the middle of it. Or is it the end? Or the beginning? I'm not sure, then again I don't think anyone is. This is what the Christians would call 'hell' never ending agony, hmm fits the bill. But this, this ends. Very far away but ends. Not much can be seen anywhere but above, it is light up with red glow and the ceiling looks like it could give way any moment just adding to the fear.
Though in this place of pain and sadness I am sane. Not worried nor bored. Just there... waiting for something to happen. Even though it seemed to be years before something did happen, something did. A creature with blood red skin and glowing yellow eyes fitted with full plate mail armor which had spikes all over it and had a certain black tint to the metal, silver? Iron? Maybe steel? But this... thing could well be given the title demon and everyone would never say a thing. It even had wings that seemed to reach as far as six people down here. He... or at least I think so. Was flying, every so often they would look round as if trying to find a loved one in a fire or a child whom have lost their parents.
He did this until he fixated his eyes onto something, following his direction he was looking at... me? When our eyes met he swooped down as if in an instant grabbed me and started to fly into the gates and towards a huge western style mansion.
When I arrived at the mansion the doors swung open and with the doors came a warm breeze almost inviting me in. As I entered an old man with gray hair and a mustache greeted me.
“Hello Sir, we have been expecting you. Please follow me I shall escort you to the drawing room, this is currently where the Master is relaxing.” Expecting me?
The hallways were packed with armors, everyone getting older and more detailed as I move forward and at the end of the corridor was large doors. The doors were large enough to fit two army's through and looked almost impossible to open.
“Here we are Sir” The Butler turned round and politely directed me in the right direction. As I approached the doors they opened as if they were alive.
The room was a massive library with only a small candle light near the entrance. I started to walk towards the light. A small way away from the candle the one writing looked towards me.
“Hello” said an old man with black hair, long beard and wearing a cloak. “I am The Keeper of History, but my friends call me Harold. I have seen you today to discuss your reincarnation” Reincarnation? What did I do to get reincarnated?
“I know you must have forgotten what has happened in your life... Dying will do that you know. You were born into a military family and served the king for most of your life. Before getting Knighted and progressing to the title of Knight Commander. Before you died you lead a group of 10 of the kingdoms best knights to infiltrate an enemies fort to destroy it from the inside. Only you and the new recruit survived but you succeeded. On the way back the kingdom he stabbed you in the back and left you for dead and in the end wolves came to finish you off... How sad, not many get it bad that much.” Oh... I wont dwell on it, there is no point to think of the past when you can focus on the future.

“In a few minutes you will be automatically be transported to a dark room with no doors or windows just a floating screen to decide your race and depending on how many feel for you in your past life still you will be given points. These points may be spent of traits for your new life. In your new life you will retain your skills but not your memories. Good luck in your new life my child” the man said these words before my vision started to darken and a screen pooped up with a button labeled random and another labeled choose your race for 5000 points.
I thought that I wouldn't have that many points so I chose random and the screen turned into a list which was going through its self, slowly getting slower to the point it stopped and the chosen race was... revenant? I had only heard about these in myths and had never seen one in my life time as a knight. But I knew they were evil and deadly... One of the standard procedures of meeting one were hide and don’t make a sound, wait a week and then run for your life to a secluded place away from the kingdom to lead it away. One of the myths said they were normal humans but something happened to them in life to start to understand their powers. Another said they would have red eyes, white hear and no emotions...
After the screen went away another screen popped up and it wrote. 'The King and all of his subordinates are grieving for you. Points earned +10,000. Your killer has committed suicide over their decision you gained an extra +20,000 points. Any points you do not use will be used to level up your stats which will be awarded on your coming of age ceremony on your 16th birthday. The god of death, the goddess of poison and the god of monsters along with the god of war, god of evolution and goddess of illusion have taken an interest in you past life and will become your deities in your next life. All available features you get may have a negative effect on your life which is decided randomly. Good luck in your new life'
A new screen now popped up with many options from invincibility, immortality to great leader. Great blacksmith to founder of a new age. Many about master knowledge are about 1000 each though there are only about 10 and if you have picked one already you may not choose another. Invulnerability is 100,000 but max hp is only 500 so is max mana and stamina. So the list of feats I have chosen are:
Max HP – 500rp
Max Stamina - 500rp
Max Mana – 500rp
Immortal – 10,000rp
God-like Blacksmith – 5000rp
Immune to poison – 100rp
Immune to fire – 100rp
Master illusionist - 1000rp
Evolve – 100rp
Those left me with 12,200rp (Reincarnation points) with which I thought to put on to increasing my stats for when I reach 16 just in case my life would not be a good one. With that done the finished button was pushed. Before the text went away it popped up quickly as 'Born into an unloving family in a Queendom' (Like a kingdom but run by girls and only girls)
“Its triplets my lady!”she said and went onto saying “Two girls... and a boy.” with a disappointed face while handing us to another woman. “I shall call them Lilith, Lynessa and... hmm, I never expected one to be a boy so Victoria should suffice ... Yes, my lovelies will grow with these names” The other
woman looked confused but seemed like she would not question her.
