Ch1 death

One day in a random town of Maine. A man named Stan was working in a metal factory. You could hear the clanging of metal everywhere. Then out of nowhere two huge vats of hot metal slammed together.

CLANK CLANG CLANG…!!! Hot metal spilled and launched everywhere. Shouts and screams erupted everywhere."TAKE COVER!!" One man screams through microphone speaker system as he slams down the fire alarm switch, and the malfunction shutdown switch. It was too late as there was too much noise and no one heard him. He immediately ran down from the control room to see the main floor where the accident happened. What he saw made the man fall to the ground in shock. Everyone of the vats had nocked into each other. Spilling molten metal on the workers and the vats themselves crushing them to death.

No one had survived. But that wasn't the only thing there appeared to be a humanoid like figure made of molten metal or lava moving towards the man. As the figure drew near it said one thing to the man. "Time to die Stan" the molten figure said as it made a creepy smile that made Stan shiver down to his core. "How do you know my name? Why are you doing this?" Stan shouted at the figure while getting up to his feet. But the molten figure didn't say anything and just begun running at Stan. Stan immediately turned and started running back across the bridge to the control room. But just as Stan was halfway he heard the figure say one last thing. "You shall serve me." Then an enormous explosion happened.

The blast throwing Stan face first towards the control but before he reached the door room door. A metal beam had fallen from the roof, it was red hot and melted on both sides. It had fallen at the perfect time to hit Stan mid air impaling through his back. The weight of the beam was so heavy, and the beam was so hot it just passed right through Stans body and the bridge to the control room.

Before getting impaled in the floor below and stopping. About half of the six foot metal beam still sticking out. Stan lay motionless on the bridge he was in so much pain. He knew he was going to die. Before stan could die the molten figure rolled home over. Strangely it did not burn Stan. Soon after rolling Stan over the molten mana shap changed into that of a small orange ball and flew into Stans head.

Once the molten man flew into stans mind, all Stan could see was darkness.

all of a sudden the molten man appeared and changed shape again. Turning into a more normal looking man but his eyes were completely orange with flames on them rising up just above his forehead. Were a set of deep red horns that curled down towards his chin. Then the molten man spoke "I am one of the old gods, I am Khahrahk, I shall give you three choices to be reborn as. "Khahrahk pauses before continuing. "I shall feed on the emotions and souls of the people around you, and the ones you kill as part of the deal. It will allow me to gain power to give you more powers. You'll also be helping me escape my prison into the real world"Khahrahk finished with a creepy smile "I think you know my answer Khahrahk." Stan said indifferently. Soon three options appeared before stans eyes. Each option had a picture of a beast with a name on it that was it.

The first picture was of a hippogriff it had the head, fore claws and wings of a large eagle with the body and hind legs of a well toned and muscular horse. The second picture was of a noble draconian a man with dragon features. The creature had a human body covered in scales that were black with wings on its back. It also had a tail with a spike on the end, and the head was that of a dragons, with thick, long curved horns that protruded from the top of its head.The third option was a Nova-men, it was just a normal man standing at the bottom of the ocean unfazed by the pressure of being there. It's skin was shining brightly warding off the darkness around it.

Stan decided to pick noble draconian as it was the strongest of all the creatures and the picture of the dragon man was always changing between several colors. After Stan selected Noble Draconian's the changing of the colors sped up until it started to slow down again when it stopped the glow the card gave was all kinds of colors at once. Soon after he awoke in a cave, and Khahrahk was still in his vision like an ai of sorts. "You are considered an anomalous object and the scp foundation will hunt you down they will imprison you or kill you. There will also be other scps and beings trying to stop you, or capture you for their own benefit." Khahrahk said then continued "your main goal is to feed me emotions and souls to empower me for my escape into reality.

I will be giving you a system a basic one at first that will give you a status comparable to the video game menus you would use..." "Ok but what about powers, how will I know what I can do?" Stan interrupted Khahrahk. "you will also have a skills and quest menu to view you powers and current tasks." Khahrahk was starting to get annoyed, and finished by saying "you shall be able to access everything with your mind, that is all I'm going to tell you." Khahrahk said as he disappeared from Stans vision.

Stan immediately started to give his new body a try. First he checked his powers menu. A small list showed up in Stans vision.

'Wow I feel like I am overpowered a bit but Ik I'm not' Stan thought as he began leaving the cave…
