Filia had just gotten finished at school, it was summer break after all, and she couldn't wait to log onto Infinite Story. Once she had happily walked the 3 blocks home, she took the spare key to the house out of her purse and opened the door. As usual, her parents weren't home. Both were out on business and FIlia was home alone. She was used it, she knew had to clean the house, do laundry and cook food for herself. She had to learn because her parents were never home to do it for her.
Once she had settled down and gotten a small snack, she went to her room, turned on the AC in her apartment and put on the Virtual Gear. (A cybernetic helmet attached to the internet and Infinite Story Server) She layed down in bed, and once she was comfortable, she closed her eyes and press the on button. A 5 second count-down timer showed and once it had reached 0, she could feel her conscious being transported.
Filia opened her eyes in her new body. She looked around and at herself in the mirror in front of her. Despite the fact that she was a girl, Filia had chosen a male avatar to play... just because she had wanted to. Filia thought about switching to her other character, the swordswoman she had made during the beta, but she decided to make life interesting and create another character to play with all the new people that had joined. She looked around and saw all the other lower level characters traveling around the town of Ramshorn (the first town.) Filia enjoyed a good challenge, so she created Aegis. A half-wolf male avatar with maxed out Strength and Endurance stats. She almost laughed at herself when she looked at her stats. Her strength and endurance were already at 75, and she was only level 8! Her other stats were well... not so high. 75 strength and endurance was more than enough to get her through anything. Skill was her third highest stat followed by Agility then then other 2. She looked at her HP bar, and then at the other players around her. She had more life than most level 15 characters around her, which made it all the more fun.
"750 hp at level 8 huh?" he shook his head at the ridiculous number.
Looking around, Aegis (Filia) made his way to a certain tavern that he and his other 2 friends always frequented and used as a gathering point. He stopped in front of a dinky little tavern that a lot of people really didn't visit, which was nice, because it allowed for private groups to meet in piece and plan out their strategies without the eavesdropping of other players. Little did anyone, not even his friends know, that his other character had actually bought the small tavern for the purpose of meetings and planning. Opening the door with the key attached to his account, Aegis, walked in, set up the Auto bar (an NPC he had hired) to take control of the place while he was there to serve drinks and take orders. Ironically, the NPC Aegis had hired resembled his (Filia's) mom which gave the place a more homely feel. Sitting down at one of the tables, Aegis kicked back and set his feet on the table leaning backwards in his chair. Now all he had to do was wait for his friends to come to the
Sleeping Wolf Tavern.
