The Anomaly
You wakes up in a world they don’t belong and is given a unique choice.
Plot
You awakes in a new world and is presented with “The System”. The System isn’t special to You or anybody for that matter, everybody has one. The System knows the basics about the world but additional info will be revealed when scanning, defeating or interacting with people and things. After reading the overview of the system it goes to the home page where You’s name, title, level and stats (hp, mana, strength, dexterity, magic power, physical defense and magical defense) are listed from top to bottom. At the very bottom are other tabs/buttons labeled, home, quests, skills/spells and inventory. You goes to quest and it’s empty so they check they skills/spells and the screen glitches. It turns all black and in white letters it says “Welcome Anomaly. You weren’t supposed to come to this world, The System Moderators have made a mistake. The Hero has already been summoned and defeated The Demon Lord but a reincarnation can not be undone. For the inconvenience we offer you a choice of a skill only you will have. A skill ranked “Z”, beyond the usual scale used of Exgardia, S-F (highest-lowest). Here are your options: Devour- you “devour” anything you defeat or anything you are 5 times the level of and gain bonus experience and a skill/spell based on what you devour. The higher tier the skill the lower chance of learning it. For example devouring an ice scorpion will give you some experience and possibly “ice spear” or “cold poison”. Monarch- you name a monster that you have defeated or that has decided to obey you and it will evolve. You also gain bonus experience. You have a chance to learn a skill/spell from what you name after it evolves. For example naming a goblin would evolve it to a hobgoblin and you could learn “overhand stun” from the evolved hobgoblin. Copy- you copy an ability you have been hit by a number of times (based on skill mastery) or from an enemy you have defeated. You can only copy one ability from one individual. Custom- give The System a name and quick summary and it will develop a skill on par with the choices given. You may not create a skill that makes a living person do anything against there will, no instant death abilities, etc. Which do you pick Anomaly?” After You chooses what happens is up to them and how they live their life. It’s a basic fantasy world, kingdoms, villages, guilds. Conflicts are still happening between their nations and within nations. There are rumors the demon king left behind a child who’s possibly old enough to already be a problem (18 years old). Dragons basically own a mountain range splitting two continents. There are 4 major continents, one consists of the human, elven and dwarven kingdoms. One is a united continent that consist of multiple cities (this is where You wakes up somewhere in the woods), there is another continent that has a human kingdom, elven kingdom and beastkin kingdom, then there’s the fourth continent that was ruled by the demon lord and his allies, the vampires. The remaining vampires have united and are supposedly peaceful, most of the rest of the continent however is still in ruin and contains demons. There is also the Draco Mountains, a mountain range that covers most of the border between the first two continents. The beastkin kingdom is closest to Draco Mountains and beastkin have an alliance of sorts with the dragons and dragon kind. The usual scale used by the world for skills/spells,titles and adventurer rankings is S, A, B,C,D,E,F(highest to lowest) but there are very few out there who have “Z” skills and titles. You starts with a Z rank skill (the one chosen at start and title, “The Anomaly”. Earning or taking a Z rank title gives you a respective skill and stat boost based on the title. “The Anomaly” gave You their chosen skill and they get a 10% boost to experience gained and 5% boost to every stat. Some other existing/known z rank titles out there are, “The Hero”, “Demon Lord”, “Dragon Lord” and “The Jester”. Just like every other skill, Z rank skills can evolve and be mastered. At 50% mastery all skills evolve once and then at 100% they evolve again. Fully evolved Z rank are even rarer than Z rank in general and are completely broken. Other titles can be earned and do give boost or skills but any title ranked under a S gives one or the other, S and Z gives a skill/spell and stat boost but z gives multiple stat boosts. Humans live on average 80 years, elves live 200, dwarves live 120, beastkin live 70-150 depending on the beast/animal they take after, vampires live 500 and dragons live 2,500 years. Evolved forms of races and creatures live longer.
Opening scene
You wakes up in the middle of the jungle and the air feels strange and different, maybe even magical. Before You can do anything a screen pops up and is labeled “The System”. You checks the screen out and notices on the current Home Screen are labels. Name, title, level and a list of stats (hp, mana, strength, dexterity, magic power, physical defense and magical defense). There are labels at the bottom of the screen, home, quests, skills/spells and inventory. You goes to the skills/spells and the screen glitches. It turns all black and in white letters it says “Welcome Anomaly. You weren’t supposed to come to this world, The System Moderators have made a mistake.
