So, something came up and I'm not sure if I'll be here when the original time of the vote count ended, so I decided to end it early.

Anyways, I have bad news and good news!

On the good ones, you finally obtained your magic stuff and you crit rolled!

On the bad ones, you almost died, failed your hiding roll and crit failed on another and... something else.

Hope y'all fine, I'll update in like, ten minutes or so.

Awakening
Running? No, something told you that it might end badly.

Hiding? You were always good at passing unnoticed by everyone around you; From your parents, to your classmates, to your teachers, to your pets.

It was time to put your capabilities in good use.

You took cover behind one of the trees, waiting to see what could happen, and then run away.

It didn't took long for the... thing, to appear.

It's figure reminded you vaguely of an ant; it walked on it's four legs, there were two on each side of it's body, short and flexed keeping itself close to the ground, it's torso was tiny, specially compared to it's backside and head, who were at least double it's size.

But what truly caught your attention, was the bright orange light that came from it's head, like a cyclops.

It seemed to use it as a flashlight of sorts, seemingly attempting to flash everywhere the thing put it's sight on.

You crouched and stood still, attempting to evade it's sight and light, hoping for it to go away.

??? Perception Vs Asuka Hiding: 3, 6 - 4 Vs 4, 1

It almost worked.

The thing had been looking in it's surroundings, searching for something, but you relaxed as it seemed that it was just about to go away...

As you though of that, the ting then set it's eyes on your hiding spot and the thing held it's gaze for a few more moments, and it was able to see one of your hands on the dirt.

The thing noticed you, and you were about to make a run for it outside of it's range.

Then, the thing screeched.

It was loud and high-pitched.

You attempted to cover your ears with your hands, but it was futile, you could literally feel your eardrums bleeding from the screech of the monster.

Asuka Running Away (D20): 1!

"FUCK!" This was insane.

You got up and attempted to run.

You managed to move a few meters before-

SLASH!

You felt a hot, burning pain coming from your ankle.

HP 10/10 -2

"AGHHH!"
You cried as you fell to the ground, your head hitting the floor with a painful thud.

You started crying.

This... What the actual fuck was happening?!

The monster didn't cared for your cries, though.

It lunged at you, seemingly ready to finish you, but not before climbing on top of you and flashing it's orange light in your face.

Your at this point were entering in shock; everything felt so... distant, for some reason.

'This is it...?' you were going to die like this, at the claws of something you didn't had the slightest idea of what it was? Right after you came to your hometown? Just because you wanted to take a stroll in the woods? Just because you were feeling nostalgic? Just because...? Because...?

There was something else there, you knew that, but you were taken out of your thoughts by the monster.

??? Reaction (D20): 04!

??? Accuracy (D20): 18 -4 = 14!

??? Attack (2D6): 4,1!

After seeing your face, it stood completely still for a few seconds, before it's light changed from orange to red.

'That's familiar...' Was the only thought you had while you were attacked by the monster, feeling your clothes being torn and you flesh being cut.

HP 08/10 -5

You didn't wanted to die.

You didn't know what was happening.

You were about to die.

You felt heat coming from one of your pockets.

You hated this monster.


You wanted to live.

There was something inside of you that wanted to come out.
Awakening (1D100): 99+20 =119!
You let it out.

In an instant, the surroundings exploded in light coming from you.

The monster who had been attempting to kill you had been injured by said explosion.

??? Damage from Explosion (1D4): 2!

You breathed, it was hard to do so, but you breathed; you felt sore and with pain all over your body.
HP 03/10 +5
But still, you were still alive, and that's what matters.

??? Retreat? (D20): 5!

The monster looked just as willing to kill you as before, despite this new impediment.

You feel a weight in your hands that wasn't there before, you look at them and...

(Choose two)
[] ...You saw a dagger in one your hands. it was sharp, short, silent and quick. You knew you were going to need it. (1d6, +4 damage enemies taken by surprise)
[] ...You saw a pistol in one of your hands. it seemed like one of those old ones that required to reload after every shot. You knew that this one wasn't going to need that.(1d5, does not need to recharge, elemental shots available from the beginning)
[] ...You saw a musket in one of your hands. it was great for the distance, and every reload was filled with power. Power you knew that you were going to need it.(1d10, needs to recharge after a shot, elemental shots so far unavailable)
[] ...You saw a shortsword in one of you hands. the blade was sharp, and it was going to announce itself to the world by cutting this beast. You knew you were going to like that.(1d8, increases damage by landing consecutive attacks)
[] ...You saw a spear in one of your hands. It was perfect to stab your enemies at a distance. You knew you would find it useful.(1d10, +2 bonus to magical attacks)

At the same time, you noticed that your outfit had changed, it was now...

[] Option 1
[] Option 2
[] Option 3
[] Another Option? (Link to an image)

So... that happened.

Whoever dared to draw the ire of the RNGods, hope that you are happy.

Anyways, it is time for you to choose your magic stuff!

You only choose the outfit, to clarify, you don't change's the MC's appearance.

This is why I meant about Magical Girl vibes a while ago.

Anyways, you could also see it as a P5 stuff.

Hope that y'all are liking this stuff so far.

Feedback and typos are always appreciated.

The Character sheet will be updated in shortly.

This and the next update should wrap up this whole prologue.

Anyways, approval vote it is, bye!

Damn! Would it have been different if it was a Nat 100 on the awakening roll?

Um... guys? I'm not sure if I explained myself well enough in the post, but you can choose two weapons, not just one.

In the Spells section of the Character Sheet you can see that you have Explosive Release(Minor), right?

Well, you would have obtained the (Medium) version right away, which would have caused 1d6 instead of 1d4.

Can I choose spear twice and weild one in each hand?
 
Our highest is DEX, which according to Unknown represents
Dexterity (DEX): Represents your speed, capability to move silently and to evade attacks, and your precision with long-ranged weapons.

Which means the most optimal options are the Dagger (For Sneak attacks), the Musket (For long range attacks) or the Pistol (for versatility and a middle ground between the two options)

Question for Unknown, would the pistol fit under long range weapons? Also, do we gain any advantages for dual wielding weapons? Because we can dual wield the pistol and the dagger, but not with the musket.

Yep, it has a shorter range than the musket, so you will have less range to strike, but it is a long-ranged one.

It depends on the weapon chosen, you can totally do it with dagger/shortsword and pistol, but you can't do the same with the spear and musket, for example, due to them being two-handed weapons (I mean, you can try, but you will receive maluses to your accuracy and PWR).

I've seen plenty of people use spear one handed. Slashes are more dependent on foot work and you lose some striking power, but it can be done. Watch fate zero.

Huh, really? You learn something new every day.

Alright, it the damage would be reduced to 1d8 instead of 10, but you can actually choose two spears then.

Sweet. Thanks man. The lower damage does make sense because typically you use short spears, unless your a freak of nature like sanada yukimora.
I would love to say that I know who sanada is, but I can't.

Anyways, it's no problem. I thought I knew something, was corrected on it, and it was a respectful interchange.

hey, if we already have the pocket watch we might as well go for an elegant Victorian style.
As for the pistol and the short sword, the pistol will serve us to attack from far / medium distance (and also if it is possible to perform bloodborne-style parrys) and the short sword for when the confrontations are made at close range (influences the that looks good a gun and a sword)

Double spear seems unlikely to gain any ground in this situation so I'll go with plan b.

Also I think you need to get new dice.
