《A Life of Terror.》Life.

Warmth. I've never felt it before. Actually...I don't think I've felt anything else either. It's nice...I like it. Honestly, the only things wrong are those thingies that keep trying to get inside my mind. They seem pretty scary and violent so I've just been ignoring them so far. The Squiglies even showed up after I thought about them for a while.
Figuring out what they mean is kind of a game at this point. So far, I've been able to figure out that there are two types of the Squiglies. One type is meant for trying to tell me things, and the other has something to do with how many of something there are. Then the Noiseys come and try and explain it a different way. Finally then, the Squiglies just push what they're trying to say right into my think-box.
I don't really get what a think-box is even though the Squiglies try and explain it. It's...me? Something like that, I don't get it.

(Yes)(No)
Ooooooh, lot's of Squiglies today. Most of it goes right over my head, which shouldn't be to hard considering it only started growing a while ago. Anyway, that end part sounded pretty fun. It's not that often that the Squiglies want me to reply.
Upon leaning my psyche toward the Squiglies, I was met with a refreshing wave of knowledge that was quite a bit different than most other before.
This...Goddess, was amazing. I saw flashes of water and these brightly colored things called 'flowers'. Oh! The Goddess is even named after one! So pretty! Not scary!
...I want to meet her! Yes!
You have chosen to try and make contact with the Goddess Lilac. Contact has been denied, however Lilac has chosen to grant you a quest upon birth so that you may prove yourself worthy of such council.
From what I get of that, I'll be alone for now. That's okay though! I'll keep trying until she's begging to see me!
For attempting to reach the gods themselves, and not becoming dissuaded after failure, you have gained the Faith attribute.
Though Lilac declined your audience, your hope of one day meeting the deity has only grown stronger. As such, your spirit is affected by the +10 increase of faith before your mortal birth.
Your species shall fall under; Pantheon of Nature.
WARNING; All required fields of Stats, Understanding, Moral Allignment, and Personality have been filled.
Birth will come soon, young one. It shall be filled with wonders and fear, but stride confidently. Whether the smallest of rodents, or the mightiest of beasts, all life has purpose. May the System aid and guide your path.
(Additional skills and titles shall now be added to your Status screen. To prevent an unnatural or unfortunate reaction between body and soul, you will soon lose conciousness. To lessen the probability of a birth defect, all [Unnamed Fetuses] are given +10 Luck.)

Moooooorrrrreeeeeee Ssssssqqqqquiglies! Wow, I haven't had this many in a while. Not since my limbs started growing at least.
They seem pretty small compared to the other things the Squiglies showed me. Other...life. There were big ones that breathed fire, small ones that could do this thing called digging! It looked like a lot of work though, and the fire burned things, so I'll do my best to avoid stuff like that. Eating seemed fun though!
The Squiglies showed me aaaaalllll kinds of food. There were these woolf things eating another thing, and hoomans eating tons of different things! The Squiglies said that humans are mean though, they don't talk to the Squiglies or say thank you ever! It seemed like they couldn't talk about it to much when I asked, but it really seemed like these hoomans are just a bunch of meanies!
For learning of a different species and growing to despise them, even with your inferior intelligence, you have gained the Hater of Humanity title. All damage to humans has been modified by ten percent, and shall grow with your resentment.
Since you have aquired both the Peaceful and Hater of Humanity titles, humans will resent you, but other sentient races will become more accepting of you. Any race that is at war or recovering from disputes with any human will be more tolerant of your actions, as well as more willing to listen to your council.
----
Sufficient growth has been reached, the time of your birth has come. You shall now be fully integrated into your new body.
Your new race is; Tortoise Golem.
Your new name, as determined by the Goddess Lilac, is Orchid.
To avoid damage of the soul or psyche, you shall lose conciousness in three...two...one.
Good luck.

Silhouette
WARNING: THIS STORY HAS A SLOW START. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. We all grew up hearing stories about heroes and villains, but what would we do if we were to be part of one? One night, a bioweapon escaped from its laboratory in Zalcien, only to die in a dark alley. One night, a young man lent a helping hand, only to die alone in the dark. One night, a deity of death saw two lost souls and offered one a second chance in the other's body. Now a strange creature made of darkness, James has to deal with his new form in a strange new world where superpowers, heroes and villains are commonplace, far away from his home. Watch as he learns how to use his powers, as he meets allies and enemies and how, when facing the paths of heroism and villainy, he chooses a third way somewhere in between. Follow the story of James, a lost Earthling soul, as he becomes Silhouette, the mysterious power in the shadows. Greetings fellow humans. This is my first story on Royal Road and my first long-term project written in English, so I do hope you will have some mercy in your heart when reading. So, as you may have understood, this is a story with super-heroes - which is quite ironic for my first story considering all of the other ones planned are fantasy - and as such will take place in a modern-like setting. Despite dark themes and gory scenes making their way into the story, it is still a super-hero world with the logic that matches, so expect characters to survive nuclear explosions without a scratch and yet to get defeated by a rubber ducky - as well as similar dark humor, thus the comedy part.

Of Misclicks and Magic
What happens when those given power of unimaginable proportions fulfill their objective and become without aim? Some may continue to use it wisely, but, more often than not, it is abused. In so many isekais (or fantasy stories in general), the protagonist remains a beacon of morality with the temptations of power seemingly non-existent.In the world of Luvitov, however, upon the demon king's demise, the heroes splintered and their intentions became warped with their new immortal lives. They engage in an endless power struggle for the only ones that can oppose them is each other.Here in this world of might and magic, a reincarnated man makes a small mistake, he accidentally skipped the skill and stats screen in the process of reincarnating. His stats are nothing but ones and has no innate skills or talents. He sits yearning for a life undetermined by others.If you have reached this point and are willing to put up with my garbage along with my inconstant uploading, then welcome and I hope that you find some enjoyment out of this, even if aimed at myself.
