[Chapter 3 : Entering Another World]
As I sent out the email I started to create vivid imagery with the powers of mine it felt natural to show how it would work and using my energy the system would help me translate that into this world.
Very first thing is to create the game menu UI it cannot be too overwhelming for all users. {} Will mean section is open and [] means that is closed so they can optimize how they want their UI to look like to a certain extent.

I finally finished creating the UI for the player menus. I think I am quite reasonable with the all the restrictions. Now onto the another game menu for settings.
When walking around the player will have their username over their head along with a diamond white transparent 3D object next to the end of their name.
♢
The diamond transparent object will turn more and more red when the player PK's or kills non-red named NPC's. They will have multiple ways of resetting it:
1. Wait out for it to slowly turn to white
2. Use cloaking items to hide status
3. Repent/Remove status
4. Die and Respawn
Also they need to be able to change their pain value setting.
=== Settings === Pain Value ||||| 5% Body Protection [X] - Full Safe Mode (does not allow skin to skin contact with other users)
[_] - Friends (allows user's in friends list to have skin contact)
[_] - No Barrier Visual Censorship [X] - Full Safe Mode (any skin revealing outfit will be replaced with standard outfit)
[_] - Risky (allow some skin revealing but no full nudity)
[_] - No Barrier Gore [X] - No blood
[_] - Blood but no guts
[_] - Realism Audio Censorship [X] - Full Safe Mode (no swears of any kind or any mature words)
[_] - No Barrier (extreme swears/verbal attacks will still result in a ban)
There I think I have included all the important aspects inside a full body VR game. And for minors who play this game they cannot change those settings until they have reached that age so teenage they can have the middle choice unlocked and when they become adults they can have the final option open.
Of course blood will turn into red pixels after all I still want some blood arts or skills in the game therefore they have to deal with red square pixels in place of blood. And another restriction to minors is the pain value they cannot change it while teens can change up to 20% and adults have free choice.
I will have the message show up after they choose their class and enter the world before they open their eyes. After all I do not need certain destructive people I need all of humanity to survive I am fine with those who like to be red players. Now it is time to create the starting village!
Our first place should be an open field waking up on the nice soft grassy bed to find themselves placed in the wild, travelling for a bit they might find a settlement or a small village. I am aiming for an MMORPG type of VR game where people can partake in combat to gain stronger and if they don't want to there are other sorts of aspects as well.
After all learning to fight is an important skill but we are aiming to teach survival that is why there will be multiple types of dungeons and challenges to test humanity's skill in survival.
Now that I have the main points down lets detail the first area, since we only have 100 players we can have them all start at the same place after we start gaining traction I am thinking of restarting them all in a fully fleshed out world saying that the game is now out of beta.
"We have our first user joining the world after you are done with setting up the starting location."
"Perfect, I am almost done and for the barrier let's make it an indestructible fog around this island of theirs. Now since we have our first players but first how did you get the machine to them so quickly?"
"... Shipping."
"Nice! Well then we should get this going!"
I was sculpting this starting location if I were to describe it then it would be a massive island. This will be their first survival exercise at first I thought to have a village but then they would learn survival skills or the instinct. Therefore I choose to send them on this deserted island all 100 beta testers together with no goal but a system.

Chronicles of a New World
Gamer. Martial Arts enthusiast. Writer. Eric Breeden is these things and a few more, but one thing he is not is a risk-taker. But when he is pulled from his dark apartment in Fairbanks, Alaska, and transported to the world of Ahya by a powerful mage, he soon realizes that risk-taking might just have to become his thing. That is if he wants to survive and make it back home. Thrust into a world he doesn’t understand introduced to skills and a system of combat that is foreign, he tries his best to get his feet under him and get to work. Meeting the stranger who pulled him here goes about as well as can be expected, but he does at least learn his purpose. Can he fulfill it, or will he fall like so many others, to be overtaken by those who come after? Read Chronicles of a New World for a new perspective on the world of Ahya, and to see what happens when the burden of destiny is thrust upon the shoulders of a chronic under-achiever. Chapter Upload Schedule is Mon-Fri @10:00 EST (Eastern Standard Time) For those who want a little more background on The World of Ahya, I suggest you read Tome of the Body and Tome of the Mind, both of which can be found for free on my profile.

Invasion by Fire and Thunder
Holding the sea between your hands as droplets escape between your fingers. At Aquamarine Port City, Tomoe works day in and day out to keep peace in its streets. As a member of the Beheader Corps, she strives to keep the peace even when this means that she constantly jumps into danger alone. In a country where all of its states are at a 300 years cold war with each other, the Aquamarine state has lost all contact with other states. Only the dead whistles and drumming rivers can be heard at its borders... And after 300 years, they're echoing, being accompanied by the drum of thousands of steps, crossing. As Fire and Thunder are brought to Aquamarine Port City, the days where Tomoe felt at ease end. Her experience mocked, her confidence burnt, her pride reduced to ashes, to survive and protect the people she cares for she has to pay a price that she may be unable to: To let the past go. Edit: I don't know the image that I have put for a cover. Neither do I know who owns it, a search through Google doesn't leave it clear this fact either. If you happen to know who owns it or are the owner of the image, please tell me and I will credit you as I should. If you want it removed I will gladly do it too.
