Hello.

This ball of green gas is you. This is what you look like. You are a cloud of thought, waiting to be molded into form.

You're familiar with this game, aren't you, my little spec? We're going to try something a little different, this time. This time, we'll let you decide what you want to be.

I know, the thought of deciding for yourself must be so foreign to you, espescially as a new being without even a consciousness.

Never fear. I'll make this easy.

Would you like to be a Plant, Fish, Bird, Mammal, or Reptile?

Your purpose will become clear once you're born, I'm sure, and don't be afraid. All answers are right and none are any more right than any other.

There will only be one of you, for now. If you become more known, more of you will come to be. Is this the form you desire?

You're the only Alpso there is. Attracting mates with your beautiful coat and majestic tail would be totally unnecessary. Besides, the women go for strong manly types, not foo foo girly cute dogs. What is wrong with you?

Get your head out of your butt.

If this is the form you desire, say so so we can get started!

Alright. Accepted!

You are a beautiful new species of monster, the rare and powerful "Alpso." Native to the Moncrefe woodland area, you do not yet have a classified type You are still a preliminary monster.

For now, your mission is to get yourself recognized by the Monster Slayer academy. That won't be hard, as all you really need to do is be spotted by somebody with an Encyclonet account. You'll also probably need to eat, soon.

The world is open to you now.

Woah. Being alive is strange. I am now left completely to my own devices without the aid of my creator! I'll have to rely on my instincts to survive in this harsh world.

I don't really have any clear goal laid out for me. What should I do?

So yeah. There's lots I need to do. My mission is to make myself known to the Monster Slayer community. That's the way being a monster works! We have to prove that we exist to the world or else we're the only one of our kind. As soon as we're discovered, we start showing up everywhere.

What do you think I should do? Should I wait around for somebody to find me, or should I go out hunting for humans?

OK let's see... I look and see two fighters. An unarmed girl, and an armed boy. Who should I fight?

Ok! Sounds like a plan. Just because he's armed doesn't mean he can put up a fight!

Should I try a sneak attack, or just run in and attack head on?

Fantastic. I am the best sneaker ever. He neither saw, nor heard me coming as he took a heavy overhead swing at a tant, who effortlessly dodged his attack.

Now that I've snuck my way over to him, how shall I go about attacking him?
