《The Adventures of the Mask Maker》Transformation
Advertisement
In a desolate place far away. This place is located in the far west...hundreds of kilometers away from the Human Kingdom as well as the Demon Kingdom...a place that hasn't been mapped yet. Suddenly, a dark portal appeared and a figure walked out. It was Princess Emelelyn.
"Where is this?" Emelelyn asked.
"Welcome to my humble home!" A voice replied.
Emelelyn turned her head to the source and sees a shadowy figure. "You must be Desolation...strange, I thought you were more...monstrous."
"Just goes to show that the stories aren't always true...just like how I'm not evil."
"Ok...so about my appearance?"
"Hasty one eh? Nevertheless, I promised and I, Desolation, always keep my promises." The shadowy figure replied. With a wave of his hand, dark magical powers swept towards Emelelyn and enveloped and restored her. After a few minutes, the darkness dispersed and Emelelyn appeared...she has been transformed.
Princess Emelelyn walked up to a nearby red-colored lake looked at her new appearance...her original brown hair was now pure white. Her skin a light bluish color. Her eyes now a deep, blood red. Fang-like markings appeared at the bottom of her eyes.
"Satisfied?"
"It's ok...what is this power I'm feeling inside me?" Emelelyn asked as spider-like legs emerged from her back.
"It's the power of desolation and despair. I have also given you the power of spiders. With these powers, no one will bully you ever again. You can take revenge against those who stepped over your innocence."
"Thank you Lord Desolation! How can I return the favor?"
"Become my priestess...my servant...and protect my children."
"Your children?"
"Yes...the Drow Elves. Guard them as their goddess. From now on, you shall throw away your old name. I will bestow you a new name...Lolth...Queen of the Spiders...Goddess of the Drow Elves."

"Lolth.... Thank you Lord! From this day forth, I will let everyone know of my name!" Lolth bowed. Then, she turned around and looked around. Seeing the bloodied bandages and the dagger, which were what's left of her possessions, she waved her hand and cast some dark magical powers that enveloped the bandages and the dagger.
The dark power poured into the bandages and the dagger, causing it to be corrupt and transform. After a few minutes, two figures appeared from the bandages and the dagger. From the bandages, a male figure appeared and from the dagger, a female figure appeared. The male figure had white eyes and blood-red hair. A mask appeared on his face as if to be permanently stuck to it. His skin is of a darker blue hue and he vaguely look like Frank. The female figure had long white hair and black eyes with a cold countenance. A dagger appeared by her side. Her skin is of a lighter blue hue and she vaguely looked like Lolth's past appearance.
Lolth looked at the two figures and replied, "From now on, you are my subordinates. You, the male, will be known as Raun the Masked Lord. You, the female, will be known as Kiaran the Vengeful Dead."
"Yes Madam." Raun and Kiaran bowed in respect.
"Come! It's time to meet the Drow Elves."

Metagame
Some people get a second chance, late in life, and jump on it. Other people are on their third before they turn twenty. One was given everything they wanted, and threw it away on principle. One earned their place, but could never afford to pay the price. One never failed, right up until it mattered. One encountered nothing but failure, instead helping others achieve success. One never believed themselves worthy. One is crushed by the past, afraid of what might repeat itself. And the last never had a goal to begin with. But while nobody cared and no one was watching, they each decided to carry on in their own ways, even when that made things worse- and they did, usually, get worse. Arrows Through Reality, often called Arrows or ATR, is the world's first full-immersion Virtual Reality game, a MOBA by Granduon incorporated that didn't blow its competition out of the water, but did provide a new entry point that had millions trying their new game. Two years later, the player base has only grown, and everybody knows the most effective tactics... but while a cutting-edge AI supposedly runs the game's balance, it hasn't patched anything a single time. Well, the most effective way to do anything is subjective, right?

A Fool's Journey, or the Vagrancies of a Man in Exotic Lands
What does a sad bastard do when fate, literally, decides to throw him into a fantasy world? Solon just wanted to lead a normal life; work, share some pizza with friends, work, play some videogames or read something, work, maybe sleep?, work... Pretty much the usual, rinse and repeat. It was far from perfect, but life was nicely boring and comfy enough. Truth be told, he had hoped it would go on forever, or until he got married, or until the apocalypse finally decided to bring an end to everything. As far as he could tell, though, the former was about as likely as the latter; not very. And perhaps even somewhat related, if it ever came to it. Unfortunately, he saw himself involved in some sort of cosmic fart that screwed him over, brutally severing his life-plan. Or, maybe, would it be more suitable to say that Fate had other plans? Sure, he's yet to find out exactly what those plans might be, but, at the very least, they do seem to involve him being shoved into another world, fighting off a couple of horrendous creepers, and -almost- an accidental liaison with a baboon. Needless to say, the job doesn't come with dental care, and death seems more likely than retirement... Yep, when he got yoinked out of Earth, there were no princesses waiting for him, no sexy goddesses, and no severe Gandalf-wannabes! Heck, not even a bunch of demonic cultists! All he got for the trouble was a bunch of snarky windows and the honest desire to punch whatever bastard happens to be behind the smug System. Well, that, and a few forced trips to the so-called Tower of Ascension. Not exactly what he would have expected but, on the plus side, he does get to do some magic. Though, not quite the wand-waving kind. Whatever. One thing’s patently clear, though, he’s certainly not the chosen one, nor the summoned hero, nor the Savior. If anything, he himself might be in need of some saving... Just what kind of fool does the System take him for? Please do consider the tags. Also, 'Strong Lead' here means weak to strong, over a decent amount of time, not op from the very beginning. Things to expect: decent grammar, cheeky goats. Things not to expect: Harems, a decent sense of fashion.
