Another Epic Tale
This is an Isekai/Other World RP, that will take inspiration mainly from titles such as RE: Monster, The Rise of the Shield Hero, and Konosuba. Given these references, you can get a vague idea of what I am going for; an adventure story. I'll be making use of an overlying plot, but only for events deemed necessary for the progress of the story. For everything else in between, it'll be sandbox-like at best.
Premise
Annually, the mortality rate around the world is approximately 44.5 million. Among those unfortunate individuals, are a select few who possess indomitable wills that forcefully reject the idea of being put to rest. Fortunately, there exists beings that have transcended the limits of the mortal realm and are referred to, by most, as gods. Among their many responsibilities, they also heed to the calls of restless souls that refuse the afterlife. You know, like yourself.
This might not be the best way to find out, but you have certainly died. It's not uncommon for souls to not recall how it happened, but as the shock slowly subsides, the moments that caused your demise along with your other memories of your past life, eventually resurface.
So here you are, suspended in a void of nothingness, speaking to a disembodied voice who's offering you another chance at life. Would you want to give a life of adventure a chance or are you satisfied with what you've done so far?
The fact that you're here right now kind of makes your answer obvious though.
The story will take place in the Country of Arcadia, but all characters will be citizens of the Merchant Kingdom, Avarice. How and why you ended up there, will find out in the first arc.

Quirks, Perks, and Gifts
Quirks and Perks pertain to your character's name notable physical capabilities and unique skills. So this may range from being an exceptional swimmer, acrobatic, or multilingual to possessesing an iron stomach, keen eyesight, or incredible memory.
As for Gifts, these are what you'd call powers that will be granted to your characters at the start of the story. They may come in the form of an ability (fire breathing, sprouting out draconic wings from one's back, or summoning a small dragon) or an item (a blade that creates explosions on contact, footwear that allows one to move faster or in unique ways, or a mask that transforms one's appearance when worn). These start out simple but will definitely progress overtime.
