"Haven."

[Name Available.]

[Registering]

[Completed]

[Welcome Haven, this is your second life. You may only have one character created at all times. If you wish to create a new one, you must delete this account and create a new one. You have not yet created a character. Would you like to make one now?]

"Yes." answered Haven.

A mirror appeared in front of him showing his current appearance.

[Ater Online allows for customizing appearance for up to 20% of your original]

"Change hair to black with a slight purple sheen to it and increase hair length. Change eye color to red."

[You have reached 15% customization. Is there anything else you would like to change?]

"Hmm. Increase height by 10%."

[Customization has reached 20%]

[There are over 1,320 different races unlocked currently. What race would you like to choose? Certain races are hostile toward each other and some have better starting points compared to others.]

"Human. Its generic but... meh."

[Race Updated]

[Teleporting to Status Screen.]

A blue screen detailing his stats appeared before him.

"My points are fairly even except for luck. I wonder if it's randomly generated or is it at a fixed value?" Haven asked, out loud.

The tutorial voice didn't respond.

"Hello? What determines stat distribution?" Haven asked once again.

No response once again.

"Seriously? Helloooo?"

.

"Okay then... never mind. What type of build do I want in this game? Agility builds most likely represent thief-type characters while strength builds are for Swordsman or Warriors? Perhaps... Vitality for tanks and Intelligence for mages.

Hmm...

I think the best build for me would be more focused on agility with some minor attributes in strength.

I'm not interested in having a thief-type class. I want something like a swordsman's class with high speed attacks.

System, distribute 4 points to Strength and 6 points to Agility." Haven said.

The scenery changed and Haven was teleported into the beginner town along with hundreds of other users as well.

A blue screen popped up in front of him.

"Oh, I will." muttered Haven.
