《The Gamer》It Begins
Advertisement
Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Metal, Lightning, Time and Space. Eight natural phenomenon each goverbed by a different race.
The Elder's those that came before, decreed that the races were never to change, for example the Naiad of the Water could never become a Phoenix of the Fire.
But that would all change on 25th July 2018, the day I died.
Maybe I should backtrack a little my name is James Margret (don't ask) Simmons, a sixteen year old london born male that lives in colchester, I was walking home from my part-time job at Subway when I got a phone call, not really thinking I stepped out into the road whilst answering, what came next was rather bittersweet. A car going about 20 miles over the speed limit hit me side on, i flew over it getting soem pretty sweet if painful air time before being hit by a second i was dead on impact.
Now i know what your thinking if I am dead how am I telling you this well hold on to your hats kids because this is wheee it gets interesting.
There was a bright light and I appeared in an old-school cinema theater, it seemed to have been abandoned for some time as everything had a thin layer of dust. Out if curiosity I looked around a bit before taking a seat, I can freak out about dying later now is the time to be calm and collected.
As I settled down the screen flashed twice before writing appeared.
Ok so I don't remember my previous life sometimes a reincarnation remembers their first life at least they do in fiction but that doesn't seem to be the case here but I can think more on that at another time and if he was prime minister I may even meet him that'll be trippy if I work it out before hand.

After mentally running through the positives and negatives I decided that whether or not I was offered The Gamer ability I probably would have chosen yes but with the Gamer, I definitely selected yes.
You have selected yes, you have gained 1 free stat point to put anywhere.
Please choose your race
Gallifreyan- rather avaerage in the long run, basically a longer living human, this race has +2 to 2 stats and basic proficiency in one skill (you may be able to eventually evolve this into timelord if you follow the correct timeline).
Timelord- The lords of time itself this race's lifespan varies greatly due to their regeneration feature and are incredibly intelligent- +3 to intelligence and regeneration feature.
Alien- create your own race, planet and culture with appropriate stats and abilities and we will incorporate them into the whoniverse.
Dalek- mutated squid in tanks indiginous to the planet Skaro these xenophobic monsters are incredibly tough to kill, and wish tonkill anything not dalek- this race gains +3 to constitution and the emotional xenophobic murderer feature.
"Game will I be able to return to whoniverse if I die?"
If you choose to.
"Then for my first playthrough I select Timelord."
The screen flashed once
Timelord selected please apply stats.
Strength:1
Dexterity:1
Constitution:1
Intelligence:(1+3)4
Wisdom:1
Charisma:1
Luck:1
Points:(5+1)6
Please note that had you chosen no you would have still been reincarnated here but both race and stats would have been randomized, you would not have remembered your life as James Simmons and you would not have had the gamer feature.
"Thats a terrifying thought." In order to survive my physical and health stats should be what I focus on so I'll put points into strength, dexterity, constitution and luck.
Strength:(1+2)3

Dexterity:(1+2)3
Constitution:(1+1)2
Intelligence:(1+3)4
Wisdom:1
Charisma:1
Luck:(1+1)2

Stats applied please wait....
Character creation complete...
World creation 100% completed...
Applying features....
ALERT as a first time player you will recieve a free feature please select 1 of the following...
Prodigy- +2 to intelligence and wisdom.
Lucky number 13- gain 1 additional regeneration
Negotiator- +4 to charisma and luck
Warlord- +2 to strength and dexterity and basic knowledge on weaponisation.
This took some thought lucky number 13, negotiator and warlord are all incredibly beneficial. Weighing all the pro's and con's as well as what i knew about Doctor who I quickly decided against Lucky number 13, by the end of the 12th doctors run he wanted to die but decided he was needed so put the needs of the many against what he wanted and regenerated, I didn't want that so no, The Time war is coming so warlord may be useful. But at the same time negotiator offers some massive boosts...hmm "Game do you have a coin I can use?"
Why?
"I can't decide between Warlord and Negotiator"
I will grant you both now if you agree to either redeem or kill Davros.
"Agreed"
Done...fetaures applied
Reincarnation sequence initiated....

The Crystern: Heart of Adventures
The Crystern: Heart of Adventure has been dropped out of the Writathon Challenge and placed on hiatus until further notice, in order to better plan out what's happening and to give me time to work on older projects. Fifteen-year-old Skyler Kadrix III wishes to set off on a journey to find the fabled Cyrstern, a skybeast unlike any other and the origin of the Crystals that grant people special abilities, increase their own abilities, and even allow them to gain Experience and Levels. A promise to his mother has kept him from setting off yet, but he's nearly ready to leave. When he meets Finn, who came with his master, the elf Sara, in search of a relic of the Ancients rumored to have been hidden somewhere on their skybeast, Skyler finds his journey beginning sooner than he'd expected. The journey takes the young boys across the sea of clouds, to various skybeasts and adventures. Whether they find the Crystern or not, they don't care as long as they keep moving forward. Posting schedule TBD upon return. The Sexual Content tag is for once the boys are adults, not while they're still minors. Because of this, it will be a fair while before the qualifying content appears in-story.

Devil
A reimagining of history and the world through the point of view of the Devil. The Devil will be based of what I've learned and read about the Devil not going along with a single religion's view on the Devil. The chapters will be around 1000 words, and I will post most days of the week. Please leave a comment to let me know what you like or dislike and how I can improve or how you would like the story to progress.

Escape
Nathaniel has used what money he had to buy a VR cocoon and to pay off the next few months' worth of bills. He has two ways to move forward in life- to find a new job, or to hope that he can make enough money playing Final Escape to feed his meager, human body. He has rolled randomly, as only a fool would do, and finds himself playing a Kobold magus who wields the power of life itself. Hopefully, his role-playing is entertaining enough to generate revenue, because the game is changing his real self... or else, his real self is changing the human-shaped shell he used to wear.
