(Ting) Yes, the Host's current statistics are as follows... -STATUS- Hero Rank: 1 Titles: Archmage -50% Reduction in all Elemental Damage. +5% to all spell damage. Host: Damien Sorlen Wonderous Elemental Archmage: For mastering all branches of elemental magic (Earth, Fire, Air, and Earth) to become the first of your kind on this planet. +10% to all elemental spell strength.
Boons:

Divine Points: 500 Skills: *System Skills Passive:
=Absorption (Max) Combat: +Kingdom Building+ +Inventory+ +Divine Shop+ +Sentient and Creature Creation+
Damien observed the boons with a smile. An extra 15% to the strength of all magical abilities and +50% to my learning speed and it seems it's to learning everything "System can you explain why I have extra stat points and how am I already an Archmage?"
(Ting) All of these Boons were granted by the great God that had the Host transported to this Planet. The planet's creation is based on a game Evertale but that is where the comparisons end, this is very much real and this planet has it's way of doing things much like the Hosts home planet. Of course, this is far from a roleplaying game as the host can indeed be killed by many of the great beasts and a few of the more powerful sentients that are in various regions on this planet. Sometimes even the less powerful ones if the Host is not careful.
Although, the host is currently one the strongest sentient on this continent when the statistics points are allocated and with the 'Touched by the Divine' and the 'Wondrous Elemental Archmage' boon.
The 'Wondrous Elemental Archmage' boon was granted by the great God due to the Host being the most powerful mage in his previous RPG game EverTale.
The Archmage title is what is granted once the archmagi title is reached by anyone on the planet. Though, through training, experiences, and luck sentients can have similar abilities to that of the system, by becoming Sorcerers among other profound professions and classes. The host will have the ability to hide any boons, skills, or titles at his current level.
Also, only the Host has the Divine System (DS) in his mind. The host's system was a gift from the great God and was created for the Host alone.

Though they won't know it is actually the system at work itself at work. The other sentients on this planet do not have a system implant. Yet, depending on the skill a sentient can have information directly implanted into their minds due to the skill or skills. The sentients on this planet will view their abilities as acquired skills. So, for example, a sentient can identify items or a person and will have a mental assessment of them but, will not be as detailed as the system unless that sentient has the proper skill level. All other people and sentient being grades themselves loosely on tiers and ranks. Each tier has to go through 9 ranks before the tier can advance and sub-tiers in between each of those. They have to use items to check on their ranks and titles. There are skills to detect the tier level and ranks of individuals.
Damien's mind swirled at all of the information. Processing all this information about Ranks and Tiers like we are talking about going to the gym and lifting weight to increase physical potential. He had no idea how to grow stronger but he knew for sure that he must. He couldn't die before he figured EXACTLY out who brought him here and make them send him back. Gods be damned! Damien thought furiously.
"Well, at least I know how I almost cause a cat 6.0 earthquake, at such a low level. My power was essentially doubled at the start when using my elemental magic", Damien said to himself.
The boons are gifts from the great God to the Host, because of your late arrival to this planet. It seems this great God has taken pity on the Host. This planet has already had 8,000 earth years of evolution and the dangers of this planet are too vast to have an average earthling survive even a day without any assistance.
The Harbinger of the great God, you are the first of your kind here and the great God wants you to survive so that you can complete your mission, most of all. The Divine system is here to assist with the building of Hosts' Kingdom by assisting with converting mana into physical matter and to help with casting spells until the hosts can figure out how to regulate mana on his own. Damien was also given 500 DP by the Creator for his....inconvenience.
Even the System knows that this whole situation was some straight bull****. Damien thought bitterly.

Inconvenience, she says. Damien was bearly able to control his rage. The only reason he didn't lash out was that it would have been useless to do so. Calming himself, he got back on track. So, I need to be stronger first, to be able to protect myself and to build a kingdom. Yet, I have no idea where I am.
"Hey, System, is there a map?"
Instantly, a GPS type of map appeared in Damien's vision blinding him. The map showed Damien about 50 miles in every direction. Currently, anything outside of the 50 mile range was still grayed out.
"It seems like I have to travel to the location before it can be discovered."
He seemed to be Southeast of a mountain range. That would be perfect for mining and probably help with absorbing even more various types of metals and rare gems. Damien didn't know what type of currency was in this new world, but gold and jewels are wanted everywhere...or so he hoped.
"System what is currently the main type of currency on this planet?" Damien thought.
(Ting) The host is right, copper (Pennies), silver (1 US Dollar), gold (100 US dollars), high gold (1,000 US dollars, and platinum coins (10,000) are the main types of currency.
100 copper = 1 sliver / 100 silver = 1 gold / 50 gold = 1 high gold / 50 high gold = 1 platinum / 100 platinum = 1 Greater platinum.
Jewels are also viewed a precious because the more precious the jewel, the stronger enchantments it may hold and mana storage. Animal skins and furs are also tradeable items that can earn coins. Until the host is stronger he will not be able to produce any resources on his own even being a controller of the earth element.
"Well, that's good to know and will be very helpful in the future." System what are Divine points used for?
(Ting) Divine points are used as a Blacksmithing tool for the Host, among other things. The kingdom Tab is used to construct weapons, armor, and structures from different time periods in Earth's history because that is the Hosts' home planet, but can also create structures and items native to Damacus.
Yet, all materials that are created by DP will be fairly stronger than what was created on earth due to the great amount of concentrated mana and the Divine energy from the system assisting with construction. For example, Wood structures and weapons would be 2 times as strong as all other wooden structures and weapons on the planet of Damascus when created by the Host or the Divine System using Divine power or magic.
The System can also create life, but it is very limited on the amount of organic materials that are used and the type of life that is created.
The host also has an Inventory that has its own pocket dimension to story any non-living items or materials provided by the system. The dimension is the size of the distance traveled from Hosts' home planet to the current planet. Needless to say, it is unlimited space.
Damien thought about what the system had revealed to him and was stunned at the inventory information alone.
"So essentially, I can put a whole castle inside of my inventory space so long as I'm in physical contact with it and it doesn't have a living being inside. That's a humbling thought as to the kinds of powers that were in control of his life now" Damien thought. "I need to find a different civilization to absorb their technology and structures to add to my kingdom to make it more powerful. Although, creating an A1 Abrams tank on a medieval planet would be a complete game changer here and probably making my empire unstoppable. That would require gun powder and the appropriate Hero level though."
(Ting) The Host can find any material that was on earth also on this planet, as well as, new material native to planet Damascus. Host must be careful. The Hosts' space is unlimited so you can accidentally absorb the planet itself.
That last comment made Damien's stomach drop into his feet. "Yeah, no absorbing whole castles." Thinking on everything he was hearing Damien was lost in his thought until Damien felt a presence before hearing what could be trouble. Alone, kidnapped and shipped off world, in the middle of an alien forest...what can go wrong? That is until Damien heard a branch snap behind him a low rumbling growl that reverberated through his body. Then a massive roar behind him followed. "Ggggrrraarww!!"
"Nothing but death could follow a sound like that." Damien thought.
"My death."

Lone: The Wanderer [Rewrite]
Nine-to-five. The daily grind. Life. Painful years of school. Working as a slave for some undeserving corporate big-wig. The monotonous life of unemployment. We all experience this in one way or another, and we can all conclude one thing: it's dull. Such a fact rings true even for the fabled Lone Immortus, a powerful nine-tailed Golden Foxkin. However, what would you do if your monotony was suddenly ground to a halt and you were thrown out of your comfort zone along with a young girl forgotten by time? Perhaps you might have done things differently, been more organised, immediately died, gained control of the world in a matter of days, but this is Lone's tale, not yours. Watching two insecure people struggle to survive and find their place in an unfamiliar land just might be enjoyable to witness. Who knows? One thing's for certain: it won't be an easy path for them to tread, and what could possibly be more entertaining than watching people endure hardships and grow? I know of at least eight gods that would answer with, 'Absolutely nothing.' I wonder, after seeing this journey from start to finish, how would you answer?

Speaking heresy on my deathbed led me to meet god. Maybe it was a curse, or a blessing, but he decided I would work it off--as one of many gods on another world of magic and sorcery. It wasn't something I intended or was prepared for, but I am willing to work to make the world a better place. Isn't that what a god SHOULD do? Part of the Demonsword Project universe (First Age).
