Expendable

Blackguards!

The others must be downwind, Cian surmised, thrusting her necklace through the neck opening of her boiled leather breastplate before she could slip her head through the hole. As she did, she could catch the scent of the newcomers, the metallic scent of their blood, the beating of their hearts as it rushed through their veins and arteries....

"I... thirst," she growls, then grabs ahold of her necklace above the seal. "Cursed thing! Leaving me all weak and unable to fight! Must I sup when others have sated themselves, leaving me the scraps?! Why can I not free myself of this curse?"

Turning, she glares at Sariel angrily as she splashes ashore. "They do not look to me to be willing to talk!"

"Guard yourself well, Lady Gaaaangraenah," Cian added, "Least they try to roast you in your armor!"

Okay to finish inspection of the primary and secondary generators and get them online so we can start the switchover to internal power?

GEAT READY TO DIE!]

Welcome to Hell

Remember, a little death never killed anybody.

Skills were to be left alone until after, right?

Children of the Otherworld - An Isekai Story

I don't see either one of these gods killing the people they brought over. Truck-kin reappears and runs them over, then Death appears with his scythe and says FOUND YOU.

Also, I wanted to re-clarify. You aren’t necessarily getting re-born into a new life. The idea is that because you died before you were supposed to on Earth, you’re getting to live out the rest of your life in Vecta. That’s why I said all the deaths had to be random.

@TheNoCoKid

In Terry Pratchett's book "The Color of Magic", the wizard Rincewind bumps into Death, who's very surprised to see him since he had an appointment with Rincewind in another city later that night. Death understands this isn't Rincewind's fault, but does offer the wizard the use of a very fast horse....

24 year old pretending to be a mother. Really gonna just increase the amount of bullying she gets, eh.

@ERode

Not uncommon among first-borns.

Children of the Otherworld - An Isekai Story

Samantha

Real World

Samantha Ursela Horwitz

"If I show up at your door, chances are you did something to bring me there."

Age: 33

Appearance: This innocent woman has hooded black eyes. Her silky, straight, black hair is medium-length and is worn in a simple style. She is tall with a lean build. Her skin is lightly tanned. She has prominent cheekbones and a pointed chin. Her wardrobe is unusual and attractive, and mostly black.

Job: Freelance Assassin

Cause of Death: In a rush to get down the stairs of a parking gargage, only to get the toe of their shoe caught under the edge of anti-slip stair nosing. Sam fell half-way down a flight of stairs and through a plate glass window, landing on electrical wires that bounced her into the alley below, only to get run over by a speeding ice cream truck being driven by a guy dressed up as a clown on his way to his son's birthday party.

Her last conscious thought as she crashed through the window was, "I wish I could fly."

A kid using his phone to record his buddy doing some skateboard stunts got her crashing through the window, etc., and uploaded the clip to youtube. Nine million views, with opinions of this being a movie stunt, or one that's gone wrong. So far, seventeen scripts including this scene have been presented to Hollywood; three action movies and one cop drama in production have done a rewrite to include it.

Various world intelligence agencies have issued no comment, with a little over half of them convinced she went overboard trying to fake her own death.

Background: Grew up in the suburbs, her mom and dad fought constantly. Her mom left when Sam was twelve, leaving her and her brother there. Her dad became a drunk, so it was left to her as the oldest to manage the house.

In high school, she was a bit of a loner, working a part-time job as a sales clerk at the gas station. She'd see other kids when they got their licenses drive up, giving her that look in her shapeless sweatshirt and jeans before heading out the door, laughing. Perhaps that was why Kalee Miller decided to escalate bullying her during lunch one rainy afternoon. Snatching away the library book Sam was reading, then dropped it on the floor when she asked for it back. When Sam asked her, "Are you trying to pick a fight with me?" and Kalee answered laughingly, "What if I am, Ursela? What are you going to do about it?"

Sam punched her in the face, hard, knocking Kalee down, bleeding. She got suspended, and decided to join the Marines.

Her drill instructor noticed she was a bit more focused - and one hell of a shot at the shooting range. Out of the ordinary, Sam was psychiatrically evaluated as having a "moral flexibility." This lead her to sniper school and being lent out to an unnamed intelligence agency.

When she left the military, she tried an office job, but the pay was miserable. However, a friend of hers from the unnamed intelligence agency would reach out with some interesting offers... and the pay was good.

Then came other offers. Including one that led her to her old high school bully Kalee and her cheating CEO boyfriend. Police have it listed as a "murder-suicide." The CEO's wife tipped.

One of her friends at day job tried to set her up with a date with her brother, unfortunately on one of those nights she was scheduled to do another after-work job. She got it taken cared of quickly, but had an accident in the parking garage near the restaurant.

So, how accepted are goblins, if they're one of the joint races? Or is this a surprise for later?

<Snipped quote by Silver Carrot>

No. OOC stated that you are brought into the new world at the same age you were when you died, though translated somewhat in accordance to your new race’s lifespan.

@ERode

Reminds me of shapeshifter. Still a child of her race, despite being 2 centuries old. If she shifts to human, she's about 7 or 8.
