Welcome to the Naruto RPG!
The words were floating in front of you in what could only be considered to be a complete void.
"What?" At this point it was the only thing that you could manage to get past your lips in the shock of the situation you found myself in.
You have been chosen out of all the souls that passed at the moment of your death to be reincarnated into a special world with special powers. Lucky You!
That's when it figuratively hit you, you fucking
DIED! "I fucking
died," you said vocally after several moments. "Goddammit."
You will be allowed to Select your starting location as well as a few 'perks' to give you a bit of an edge when starting out, you will start at the age of 6.
You blink in response as you stared at the words floating in front of you in the void, moving to scratch your scalp only not to feel anything. Blinking you 'looked' down to 'see' nothing but more of the void. "Where is my body?" you voiced in baffled confusion, 'blinking' as you stared at the nothing where your body should be.
You are currently dead, what use do you have for a body?
You stared at the words before you, idly noting they were in a light blue box. "Mouthy little shit aren't you?" You questioned with an eye twitch.
You will be given a randomly generated body based upon your choices in the character selection screen, shall we begin? Or will you continue to bitch about every little thing?
You frowned in response. "Fine," you sighed as you 'slumped'. Shortly after a larger blue box appeared before you me with a number of checkboxes and choices available.
First up is where you will be born, each location has an advantage and disadvantage to them, as well as limiting what options you have for which clan you are born to.
