With the ability to enter virtual worlds and interact with them as if they were real, DMMO-RPGs offer players unparalleled freedom and excitement.
I glanced at the gaming console connected to my brain with a mix of anticipation and sheer disbelief. I mean, who would've thought that one day I'd be gaming with my mind? It's like something straight out of a sci-fi flick, but here I am, about to dive headfirst into a virtual world like a champ.
With a deep breath, I activated the console and felt a weird tingling sensation, not gonna lie, it was kinda like that feeling you get when you sit on your leg for too long. But hey, no pain, no gain, right?
Next thing I know, I'm standing in the middle of this virtual wonderland, surrounded by sights and sounds that make Disneyland look like a kiddie park.
{Welcome to the world of YGGDRASILL, Player.}
As the digital voice echoed in my mind, I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement coursing through my veins.
{The World Tree YGGDRASIL is dying. The World Tree which had countless leaves is dying because of a gigantic monster who appeared and is devouring these leaves, causing them to fall one after the other, until only nine were left. These nine leaves were the previous incarnations of the Nine Worlds.}
{The leaf-eating monster has now continued its advance to the point where it seeks to devour the remaining world which are: Asgard, Álfheim, Vanaheim, Niðavellir, Midgard, Jötunheim, Niflheim, Helheim, and Múspellsheim.}
{We want you young heroes to stop the advance of the devourer and protect your world from this calamity. For this, you have to choose a race.}
After the brief introduction was over a blue screen appears in front of me, The blue screen in front of me offers three distinct paths: Humanoid, Demi-Human, and Heteromorphic.
As I stare at the glowing blue screen, I can't help but feel a mix of excitement and indecision. Three paths lie before me: Humanoid, Demi-Human, and Heteromorphic. It's like choosing between pizza toppings—each one sounds tempting, but I know I can only pick one.
Humanoid, huh? The safe choice, like ordering plain cheese pizza. Sure, it's familiar and reliable, but where's the adventure in that? Plus, who wants to be just another boring human when you can be something way cooler?
Demi-Human sounds intriguing. It's like the exotic toppings section—Goblins, Ogres, Centaurs, oh my! Talk about diversity! But with great diversity comes great responsibility, or at least that's what Uncle Ben would say if he were here.
And then there's Heteromorphic. The wild card. The spicy jalapeño of choices. Sure, it might come with some limitations, but who wouldn't want to be a badass Angel or a fearsome Dragon? Plus, think of all the cool Halloween costumes I could rock!
After much deliberation (and maybe a coin flip or two), I make my decision.
"Hey, Death, can you tell me which race I need to choose?" I ask, turning to the enigmatic figure, who is watching over me.
While Death can't come to this world without destroying, she can communicate with me through the multiverse system, which I named as it's is not fully operational.
Death chuckles softly, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "Ah, the age-old question," she replies, her voice carrying a hint of mystery.
"I say choose something on undead side."
I tilt my head, intrigued by Death's suggestion. "Can you tell me the reason? Not that I'm questioning you or anything, I'm just curious," I ask, a playful grin quirking up one corner of my lips.
"Well, I am Death, so I've got a soft spot for things that defy death," she says with a chuckle, her eyes sparkling mischievously.
With a smirk, I couldn't resist the logic in Death's recommendation. "Fair enough," I quip, giving a nod of agreement. "Might as well go with the undead option. Can't argue with advice from Death, can you?"
I make my choice, and with a wink, I turn back to the blue screen. Scrolling through the options, I find the section for the Heteromorphic race.
A long list of undead races pops up, more than I ever imagined. Classic skeletons, zombies, and then the fancier stuff like vampires, liches, and wraiths. Each one comes with its own bag of tricks, strengths, and weaknesses.
I scratch my head, overwhelmed by the choices. "Well, well, well," I mutter to myself, scanning through the list. "Looks like Death wasn't kidding about the undead side being a graveyard of options."
After a bit of pondering (and a few chuckles at some of the weirder picks), I settle on a race that speaks to me: the Vampires. "Seems like the right vibe," I chuckle. "Always fancied myself an immortal with a killer fashion sense."
With a nod of satisfaction, I confirm my choice, watching as the screen flashes before returning to the main menu. Excitement pulses through me as I realize my journey in the world of YGGDRASILL is about to kick off. Can't wait to sink my teeth into whatever chaos awaits me as a bloodsucking vampire.
With a dark chuckle, I take a deep breath, ready to dive headfirst into whatever twisted adventures await. Because when Death herself gives you a nod, you know it's gonna be one hell of a ride. Let the bloodletting begin!
