Hello, Blue Star Online player. Congratulations on a lifetime of good deeds. You've been awarded one reincarnation experience card. You are now a *** and will be born in ****.

(? Wait, why is my measure word "clump"?)

Choose your starting skill:

A. Eight babies in one birth

B. Luck E

C. The Unspeakable Holy Grail

D. I want to be a blank slate

(With my years of experience in the world of anime and manga, option C seems the most reasonable in theory. But which grail is this, exactly?)

You may choose one follower to be the first believer in your religion. Choose:

A. An exiled holy son, whose sacred body has been corrupted by filth, but perhaps the two of you are a perfect match.

B. The heir to the empire, who has just survived a brutal coup. He is willing to do anything to reclaim the throne, including putting his faith in you.

C. A future dragon slayer, whose hometown has just been conquered by the empire ruled by B. He is now in a slave market, and buying him costs only three silver coins.

D. A random passerby. Choosing him earns you one extra attribute point as compensation.

(? The first three options look like they'd come with a really long main storyline, and the difficulty of clearing them is no joke. I'll pick DDDD.)

Many years later, facing the alliance of the Eight Religions, the pope of the Flying Potato Cult, XXX (name still undecided), would always recall that distant afternoon when he first heard the divine oracle.

"So, could you tell me once again how you picked me out of the holy son, the emperor, and the dragon knight?"

The god said, "I could tell at a glance that you had extraordinary talent."

"Don't make me expose you."

The god said, "You were the cheapest."

Bottom: A frail immortal determined to build the cult into a great success and make it shine again. He's lost his memory, but not all of it.

Top: The ultimate winner of the last Twilight of the Gods. He disguises himself to see what his old nemesis is up to, but ends up becoming a nuclear-powered donkey.

Theme: The pursuit of justice and order.
