Please select your Role
A synthetic voice monotonously requested. He was presented with three options.
He calmly selected ‘Support’ and began scrolling through a list.
Enchanter -Divine -Arcane -Spirit

Priest -Divine -Arcane -Spirit

…...It was not there. The class he saw in the trailers, the Hexigation class, a type of cursed support which used their skills to debuff and weaken enemies. At Least that is what was inferred through the trailers he mulled and salivated over.
‘Could the class be DLC? Nonono. You wouldn’t advertise DLC in a release trailer… would you? Perhaps the Devs put it in the offense role, even though it would clearly be a support?’
He thought for a moment before casting the idea out of his head. He scrolled to the top and exited the support role before selecting ‘Offense’. After scrolling past all types of warriors, monks, Warlocks, Mages, and other things he reached the bottom with no sign of the Hexigation class. Letting out a mumble of frustration he began scrolling to the top once again.
As he was scrolling to the top, his eye caught a ‘-xigation’ fly down the class window in front of him. After stopping and slowly scrolling back down making sure to read each class name as he went until he finally found Hexigation and read its description.
Hexigation -Comune with dark magics to weaken, corrode, and curse your opponents.

He selected the class and went into the character creator. It showed six options to choose from. Dark Human, Dark Elf, Dark Dwarf, Dark Beastkin, and Demon. He cycled through all of the options before settling on Dark human. There was a kind of simplistic beauty to the Dark Human face. The elf had a ‘Holier than thou’ feel to them and the Dwarfs just didn’t feel right for what he was going for. The Demon was very eye-catching, a little too eye-catching for his tastes. The Beastkin was certainly appealing but there was just something about the Dark Human that just seemed fit Perfectly with what he wanted.

He selected the Dark Human and started to Play around with the options. Although the game was not the first of its kind the graphics were quite a sight to behold. As he was contemplating between tan skin and pale skin he received a message.
Group message: From ID: PoomSlayer469 1-PoomSlayer469: Just arrived at the fountain, where you guys at? 2-BailDale04: 1 minute cute girl trying to swoon. 3-JstMaline: Just got there.
Guy chuckled at the quick series of messages before sending his own.
4-ThatGUY12435: in character creator. Be there in a couple. 5-PoomSlayer469: Don’t stay to long too don't want you to get a headache. lol 6-BailDale04: lol
7-JstMaline: lol
He closed the message window and continued with his character. He selected the tan skin and went to the eyes. He wanted for his character to give the feeling of ... Depravity? No, more like a feeling of a fallen god or banished royalty. Yes, that was more of the feeling he wanted. He eventually settled on a faded gold glow for the eyes which turned out to actually glow in the dark due to a trait of all Dark creatures. There was still something missing, he had the semi-royal feeling but his character's body was… missing something. Jokingly he swapped the gender to female and nearly had his jaw drop off. The softness of her figure not only blended well with the other aspects but enhanced them. The faded gold of her eyes stared back at him was she trying to tell him something? Perhaps she was saying:
‘You think this amount of gold is sufficient?! MORE! I demand more gold for my royal figure! Muahahahaha Muahahaha!’. It just screamed for more gold with its insane yet controlled laugh. The player feverishly scrolled through the options until he stumbled upon ‘Mana Overflowing’. He entered its tab and read its Lore.

Mana Overflowing
Mana erupts from within you filling you with its powers. The body can barely contain its power, Mana even becomes visible from within your skin.
Note* This does NOT affect gameplay and is only a cosmetic feature.
After indulging in its light lore he began to select different colors of gold. He couldn't even control his grin anymore as it morphed into what was probably the second biggest smile of his life.
When he finally found the golden color he wanted he nearly lost his shit. No, he did lose his shit. Although the graphics weren’t perfectly realistic his imagination ran rampant with it to the point he could barely select the starter skill and stats for her. Which were Min-Maxed to increase the potency of the curses, amount of curses, and just a bit into the creation stat.
It ended up looking like this:
Name: Dark Human Hexigation 1 Level 1
Agi 1(+4)
Pow 1(+4)
Dex 1(+4)
Wis 10(+4)
Knw 10(+4)

After Min-Maxing his build He moved on to the most challenging part of making a character, Naming them. The player dreaded this final step which always seemed invisible to him until the moment that he lacked creativity. He didn't want to keep his friend and the others waiting so he chose to search the internet for a suitable name and surname.
After making a name worthy of the majesty that he created the player clicked finish and loaded into the beginner town.
