Chapter 2: 2. Character Creation (Part 2)

It takes about a second to register what this dumb AI has told me. This naked woman is the character I'm supposed to play.

"What!?! I'd like to undo my selection."

I spend a good five minutes trying everything I can think of to go back to the species selection screen, but it's impossible. The only thing I can do is tweak the appearance of my avatar. But even then, the options are severely limited.

I try and darken the deathly pale skin, but the option is locked. I try and reduce the breast size, but it's at the lowest setting and I can only increase their size. Which I don't do. 

In the end, I give up, realizing I'm just wasting time. Every second I linger here, my friends are having adventures without me, gaining levels, and getting farther and farther away from the starting point. I need to get on with this.

With a sigh, I finalize the selection. I've played women in games before. If the species and class is really as powerful as the game implied, then I can live with it for three days.

The system gives me a brief description of my new species and class.

I hadn't noticed anything strange about the ears. But now I see they have a very delicate point to them.

Another message comes up.

 

There's too many things to choose from. I just want to get going, not fiddle with every last detail. But I scan the list and catch "Harmony." I saw that in the class description, so it must be important. It's pretty high already, but I add 4 more points to it. Then add 2 each to Intellect and Finesse, so they don't suck. (Vigor and Stamina seem less important for a mage build.)

I'm left with two points and I'm really not sure where they would help me most. I say aloud in frustration, "Damn! I don't know."

I really hadn't intended for Katie to spend my remaining points for me, and I notice she's dropped them in Presence. Which pisses me off because I doubt that was the best use of them. But I don't waste time arguing and instead focus on my options for the skill.

"Oh, give me a break! How much longer is this going to go on?"

As the system tells me the name. I wonder why this had to be such a hassle, when I ended up with my own name after all.

Wait! Have I always been called Triste? I think back and can't come up with a single memory where that's not my name. Still, it seems strange for some reason.

Next up, I have the option of starting outfits. The first looks like a skimpy maid's costume, only all black and with lots of lace. The second looks like a black bridal gown complete with veil and train. And even though the face is covered, the cleavage sure as hell isn't. The last, is the most normal looking. A plain black dress that reaches the ankles. The toes of leather boots emerge from beneath the hem. It's not tight or revealing, so I pick it.

Then, I have to choose from a dagger, a staff, or a bell as a starting weapon. I have no damn clue how a bell is a weapon. The dagger is curved and pretty long like a fang from a giant serpent. It looks evil and lethal, so I go with that.
