Life, Death, & Rebirth
My name is Damian Hurst, born to a drug addict and a prostitute, my childhood was the opposite of safe and warm.
I grew up on the streets of Detroit, in the year 2031, with almost zero opportunities to make my life better, i became a criminal before i even hit puberty.
I started with petty crimes, theft, muggings, and blackmail until i wanted more money to live a better life.
Once i was old enough to have real muscle on my body, i started harsher crimes, robbery, assault, drug dealing, and eventually, murder.
I had made many friends but time and time again, they proved that they couldn't be trusted and that i could only trust myself.
Unless you have something to give them, people will throw you away and treat you like nothing.
For years, i built a reputation, i was respected and feared. it's quite funny because when it was time for me to make an alias for myself, i named myself after one of my favorite fictional characters, Revan.
I created a gang, that turned into a mob, which later became a large crime syndicate known as, The Vanguard, a bit corny but i liked it.
Obviously, i had hobbies like every other person on the planet, i enjoyed reading comics, watching movies, meditating, and traveling.
How did i get caught and put in prison? i was betrayed, yet again by those i cared for.
I got married to a woman i thought was beautiful, kind, smart, and funny, but when she found out bout my true identity and what i did for a living, instead of ruling beside me, she had me arrested.
Even in prison, life was luxurious thanks to my reputation and money, the other cons followed me instead of going against me, and the guards were easily bought with some money.
On the eve of Christmas, i died, or at least i think i did, when i opened my eyes after going to sleep, i found myself in the body of a newborn.

I always found reincarnation a delightful idea, the chance to live another life with a different family in another country.
There was one major problem with this reincarnation, i wasn't on earth anymore, upon coming out of my new mother, i was greeted by a slightly transparent screen, it was a system similar to that of the Gamer, a popular webtoon from my previous life.
it has stats, skills, abilities, and an inventory... it also tells me that I'm on the planet Coruscant in the Star Wars universe.
Do you think that's the end of it? no, on the contrary, it also tells me that I'm a force-sensitive child.
This life was going to be fun... in more ways than one.
Over the first few weeks of my life, i found out that i was born into a family of high-level merchants, my parents own six dozen stores all across the planet, and I'm their first child.
Thankfully, they kept my original name, Damian Hurst.
Now, one month old, i lay in my crip, flexing my hands and moving my legs as much as i can.

--- General POV ---
In a large five-story house lives a family of three, The House of Hurst.
The patriarch of the family, Arden Hurst is a smart, cunning, and cold individual to everyone except his family. after taking his father's position as the head of the family, he expanded the family business greatly, he started selling weapons in bulk to the highest bidders.
The Matriarch of the family Evandra Hurst didn't come from wealth or fame, she was born on the streets, she used her beauty and charm to work her way into the hearts of men in powerful positions, that was until she met a man that treated her more than just an object made for satisfaction, a man she can love without fear of being used.
After seven years of being together and three years of marriage, they decided to have a child, and nine months later, they had what they wanted, a son and a legacy.
Their son, Damian, is named after Arden's father, the baby had ocean-blue eyes and a full head of black hair.
It was a joyous occasion, but happy moments can't last forever, Arden has a business to run, and Evandra needs to make sure the household and financial books are being run properly.
Now, with a nanny and several guards, the child gets everything he needs for a happy life.
--- POV: Damian Hurst ---
It's been six months, SIX GODDAMN MONTHS, of constant boredom, i can't walk, talk, or do anything for myself.
I can crawl and that's about it, the only good thing about being a baby is that i get easy quests, I've leveled up twice but I've yet to spend any points.
My parents are awesome, super caring, and kind but harsh to anyone else, my nanny is old and gentle.
Now, crawling around my massive bedroom that is the size of a small house, i complete my weekly quest.

Upon seeing all my locked skills for the first time, i figured they were due to not having those things, such as, I'll unlock Lightsaber Mastery once i have a lightsaber, but that's just a guess.
Now, all i can do is train my stats and wait.
