hello
"yay you did it" said the little girl clapping her hands
who are you and why call me brother
"arr that''s easy Roger Cain is my creator and your his son so that makes me your sister and my names gaia I run the game but even thought your my brother I cant do you any favours" but....
gaia has been added to your friends list
"you can still talk to me if you have some questions but I can''t give out big secrets now then lets start by designing your character now your going to be half human and half demon so if anyone from the church finds out your in big doo doo but don''t worry you get some cool extras now then" she snapped her fingers and a two copy''s of drake appeared in front of him one an identical copy of himself the over with pitch black hair and black tattoos moving across his body as if they were alive "now here is how you will look normally and how you look when you activate your class powers" said gaia explain why there were two of him "now when you use your powers you hair will turn black so that the only thing you cant change the rest you can thought I advise you start the same hight and body shape so you can better get used to moving about" drake thought about it then made the changes in his normal form he maid his hair longer and made it pure white after doing this his change for hair became longer as well.
perfect
"hehe you look cool big brother" gaia said giggling drake blushed as he had never been called cool before "now tell me what your going to be calling yourself in game" drake had thought about this beforehand had chosen a name that fitted his character perfectly
Erebus
then name of the Greek good of darkness "ok now then big brother there only one place I can send you as this is the beta run so enjoy your self but what ever you do do not activate your class powers in town as it will cause problems now off you go " a flash of light appeared blinding dra.. endues and when he opened his he was in a medieval like town he looked down and found he was in plain cloth drake thought *hmm what to do first* suddenly a blue box appeared in front of him and it said
welcome traveller as this is the beta the 24 hour log out has been wavered to allow you to enjoy yourself also the one month seal has been wavered so you can go out and hunt thought training in town is advised before going out to fight
*hmm* thought Erebus I need to find a quite spot to look at my stats so he walked about spotting a quite ally when he thought he was alone he thought *status window*
