Chapter 1: First Login

Computer: System has detected that you are a member of the Artemis Project. Loading Main AI. Codename "The Goddess"

Goddess: "Welcome. I heard about you from my masters. Don't worry, you should be able to talk in a language we understand. I was told to explain all that you wished to know pertaining to this world, as well as give advice on your custom race. Due to the nature of your existence in Royal Road, you shall get a custom race predefined by the developers. this race was made specifically for you to help you in your adventures, since other pre-existing races didn't fit the criteria we needed for you to spend your time in peace.

Your new race is known as a "Celestial Beast." They have been extinct for over 3000 years. They are divine beings of all types. However, their markings set them apart from other beasts and monsters. They are born with the innate ability of telepathy, and shape-shifting from their real form to the humanoid equivalent of the base subspecies. How Celestial Beasts are categorized is different from other animals and monsters. They had a sub-species for all existing animals, but then one day they just vanished into thin air. However, to this day, they are still revered as holy beasts that shouldn't be trifled with.

Now, onward to your character creation."

Please pick your Avatar Name:

Artemis: "I would like to use my existing name, Artemis"

Please Choose Gender: Male, Female, or Neutral.

Artemis: "Female."

Due to Administration lock, race has been forced to: Celestial Beast, subspecies: Cat.

Please customize your appearance.

Artemis: "Could I see both forms at once?"

Goddess: "Absolutely."

Artemis: "Can I make my tattoos and eyes to change color according to mood? "

The tattoos on her body are Tron-esque in nature. They connect to all four limbs. The tattoos' thickness is decent on the front and back of all limbs. When it gets to her "Wrists" and "ankles", they stop and go in a circle around the wrist/ankle. Then, smaller, but similar, lines go from the circle over the fingers, front to back, leaving a zero on the palm, before reconnecting to the ring on the wrist/ankle. This tattoo also exists on the Neko-Human as well, but only the ring on the wrists, the lines on the fingers, and circle on the palm of the hands.

Goddess: "Sure, give me a moment."

Artemis: "In Cat Form, I want black fur. As a Demi-Human(cat), I want black hair with streaks of hair that are like my tattoo, thus they change color depending on my mood"

Goddess: "Done."

Artemis: "That's perfect, thanks!"

Goddess: "No problem. It is my job to aid you."

Due to Administration Lock, Starting location is set to: The Citadel of Serabourg, Rosenheim Kingdom

Are you ready to finalize your character?

Artemis: "Yes."

Artemis was surrounded by a flash of light, as the scenery changed drastically before her eyes. Eventually, this subsided and she saw that she appeared to be in front of a Fountain. Immediately players surrounded her, murmuring in disbelief. "Is this a monster?" "What is this? An event?" Artemis was scared, but had nowhere to go. She stood her ground. When an NPC Guard came over after noticing the commotion, he noticed what the group of adventurers were surrounding, and instantly realized what the creature standing before him was. He moved to defend her, and disperse the crowd. After they backed up, he knelt down, like a knight would to his king, towards Artemis. Confused, she puts a paw on his shoulder to try to tell him to get up. He appeared to realize her intent, and does just that.

Guard: "Milady, I know you are a young Celestial Beast. As is, you cannot transform, nor speak, but we all know that you are not some monster or mindless beast. Please forgive the adventurers, as they do not know. Had it not been that we still revere your kind highly for all the help they gave us in the past, we wouldn't know either. Honestly, we thought your kind was all but extinct! It's wondrous that we were wrong, and noble creatures still exist! I am humbled to be in your presence. I shall go inform the lord about you at once! He shall warn all adventurers, guards, and locals about you. I'm sure they will welcome you favorably."

Artemis honestly didn't care, but was still glad she met this guard. She then decided to have a look around town. Eventually, she stopped at a large building that had adventurers hitting scarecrows. For some reason, she decided to enter to watch them in hopes to find out why they were wasting time hitting something stationary, and not real prey.

The instructor noticed her, and started talking to her. However the adventures in the vicinity looked at him like he was insane, talking to a cat and all. However, he was oblivious. He mentions that he was informed that she was coming and that he set something special up for her to train on if she wanted. She gives him a confused look until he brought out the item in question..... a cat scratching post.

Artemis, now overjoyed, starts to sharpen her claws on it without any care in the world. After a while, she snaps out of her daze and notices a window appear.

Strength +1(x10)

"Interesting ,"she thought.

All of a sudden, she felt great pain in her side and she flew across the room. She weakly manages to get up on all fours, when she notices four adventures laughing where she once stood.

Goon Leader: "Look guys, this city is awesome! The training hall even includes a monster to beat up!"
