1 Waking up.

In some beautiful forest, anyone who saw what that forest looked like during the day would be delighted. But at night this forest had a look... let's say at least exotic. If an ordinary person were in the forest right now, they would be feeling this eerie vibe.

But there was no one in the forest that night.

Near a small lake in the forest, there was a strange mist hanging in the air, it had a purple color mixed with pink.

Suddenly the mist began to manifest itself as if it were alive, it was as if it was warning of its arrival in the world and everything it will bring with it, the mist began to swirl in circles, making a mini whirlwind.

The fog keeps increasing its speed, as if in excitement.

But suddenly the fog began to dissipate, as if it had never been there, as if what had happened before was just a mere illusion.

But just as the fog was about to disappear, a shadow appeared in the middle of the fog, the shadow had a peculiar shape.

The shadow was the size of a child, on its head the shadow had a hat, by the shape it looked like a straw hat.

When the mist had completely disappeared from existence, it was finally possible to see the true form of the "shadow".

The "shadow" had a rather curious appearance, he wears a big straw hat, with an outfit apparently made of the same material.

He was 1.29m tall, looked like a child dressed for some party.

He wears a somewhat exotic colored mask, the mask had 4 thorns on each side of his cheek and 2 horns on his head, wearing this mask he had an evil and powerful appearance.

Until then he had his eyes closed, but suddenly he opened his eyes, revealing his huge yellow and bright red eyes, those eyes had an evil look and had a knack for drawing your gaze to them, anyone could spend days looking at those eyes.

The "creature" seemed to have woken up from a rather long dream and seemed confused about its current situation.

"Where I am?" said the "creature", he had a confused look as he surveyed the forest.

Suddenly the "creature" raised her arms, her arms looked like wood and she had a green straw glove in her hand, showing only the tips of her wooden fingers.

The "creature" took his arms to his face and took off the mask, his face was amazing, he looked like a creature from another world.

He has a face as black as the abyss, with yellow eyes and a kind of beak; without the mask, his face is one of sadness.

"Why am I in a forest? Wait… who am I?" said the "creature" in a confused tone, she had a high and distorted voice, it was a very macabre voice.

Before the creature could think straight, there came the sound of a bell in its head.

[Ding! Binding to the Despair System.]

'What is that? Why is someone talking inside my head? Who are you?' the "creature" thought as he concentrated on the robotic female voice in his head.

Although the "creature" was surprised, he still remained calm and rational, he was already thinking about countermeasures if the voice had bad intentions for him.

[Ding! The Despair System will return the host's memories at.. 1. 2. 3.]

(The MC looks like a Skull kid from Zelda, but he won't have the abilities of a Skull kid. He's someone with a calculating personality, he'll always stay rational when he's in trouble and think about countermeasures, he is also very naughty with his "victims", thus having a sarcastic, playful and calculating personality.)
