Press Conference (3)

"When you first enter the game, you will appear in as a soul inside the hall of death realm. There officers of death will help you to be born in the living world of Chaos.

You have two major choice to be reborn in the living, both with their own advantages and disadvantages. One is to be "Reincarnated" and the other is to be "Transmigrated".

Reincarnate means you will be reborn through normal process, you will have parents and family inside the game. This choice however is under the term of 'controlled risk'. As the family in which you will be born is not something you can decide. You may be born s the son of an emperor or may be as an orphan. Your family may be at heights of glory or may be even facing destruction. So, your starting point here will be random. But the advantage is that you will have an identity to rely on.

On the other hand, transmigration means you will be given a body without any identity and you will have to work on everything by yourself. Here the advantage is that you won't have any kind of problem with your body, while it will not be a great body, it won't have any inherent problems either.

So, the choice is yours, there are few more twists about this which I will explain in the other features.

now after you choose your way of being born, you will be asked about your race. The races you can select are normal races, like human, elf, dwarf, beastman.

Then you can select the sub-species of your race, for example, elf will have high elf, dark elf, wood elf, snow elf. Beastman will have different beast species like wolf, cat, fox, tiger and even avian species.

Then depending on your selection your starting zone will be different. For transmigrators, they will shape their body. you will have a +-10% change permissible on your avatar. For reincarnators this step will not come as their body will be influenced by their parents, however the system will make sure to keep it under the same percentage of change. This is another random part in reincarnation.

Next you will select perks. You see, in Chaos you have two major reputation points, karma and sin. your activities will grant you points in them, have greater karmic merit means you will gain various boons, while having greater sin will give you curses and you will face major tribulation from the world. In the end, it is a question of morality.

When you choose the perks, you will have a standard amount of karma points that you will spend to purchase the perks. In the purchase list, each perk has a certain quantity to make sure everyone won't have the same perks. So, you will have to choose for yourself how you what your body to be and what you want to focus on.

Depending on the perk, you will also gain some debuffs that you will later have to clear, these will come in form of personal quests that you will have to complete.

Here I also want to tell you that you can trigger racial quests to become members of other special races throughout the Chaos. To trigger them, you will have to increase your reputation with the said race and complete a series of solo quests. The higher the potential score of a race is, the harder the quest will be. Some races however are flagged as enemies throughout the Chaos, they are impossible to be used by players since they are generally synthetically created or works under hive mind like environment. But you can only change your race once in your life, other than pioneers who discover hidden races and aid them to finish their races regional quests, which is a one time quest only available for the player or team who first found the race, if you fail that quest, that race will be annihilated and you will gain sin points, but if u succeed then you can join their ranks and become one of the most respected person of their race and may even handle how their race works with the other established races, that way you can become their minister of foreign affairs. This will allow you to gain a lot of knowledge and technology privy to only that race."

Hearing all of these many people have their eyes shinning, after all, to gain power over a race and become their minister will allow one to have a ticket to gain a lot of technology and become someone powerful.

"After choosing the perk, transmigrators can immediately be born into the living. The reincarnators however will go through a challenge. This will actually help the system to decide their birth circumstances. But getting high rank in the challenge won't mean you will be born in great family, if your talent is great, you might even be born into a declining family to revive it, but it will also grant you huge benefit if you can complete it.

Next let me tell you about some of the things your avatar's power will depend upon. Your total power will be measured in Battle system that is universal throughout Chaos. It will be divided into several stage, when you are first born, your power will be in stat stage, meaning you have different stats like strength, stamina, agility, wisdom, intelligence, luck etc. Only by completing the requirement can you proceed to next stage and the requirement for each race might be different. The requirement will be given to you when you reach appropriate level.

You will have two different ancestral lines, namely bloodline and soulline. For transmigrators, they have an advantage to incorporate any bloodline or maybe even create an unique one. For reincarnators however, their bloodline will be influenced by their parental ancestry. So, it is kind of random of what you will gain. However there are items that will help you purify your bloodline in case of you getting a diluted bloodline.

For soullines however, it is totally random for every player and the only way to make it strong is by leveling up and becoming much stronger. There two will not be available to you at the beginning, you have to complete personal quests to unlock them at certain level.

After choosing everything mentioned, you will choose your weapon. This weapon is very special, as it will become your weapon spirit and will become stronger as you become stronger, however choosing the weapon will not allow you to gain it instantly, but rather it will grant you a quest that will let you obtain blueprints and materials of this weapon and also learn appropriate skills to wield it. It will also be a parameter to choose your starting zone and family for reincarnators."

These are many unique mechanisms that the audience needed a bit of time to digest. There are many parameters to remember and these will all effect on whether they will have a smooth journey or face countless difficulties. For gamers who love to min-max statistics and try various buillds, they will be needed to do many calculations to figure out what choices they want to go with.

I will write the perk list later, looking forward to see what kind of builds all of you will be making from them, the builds that are most useful or funny will be used in the story. :D

Also, any kind of question you guys want to ask? I will put them through the media and will have Mr. Wilson answer them on next chapters.
