Callie watched, wide-eyed, as the camera swept across the battlefield, then the world...Before it swung back out, towards the towering marble-and-gold spires of the Heavens! This was more epic in scale than she'd expected...A<em>thousand</em>years-? Was the game really going to simulate a thousand years of history?<br/><br/>-It might. You never knew!<br/><br/>And then, the character generation screen materalized. It was a vast chamber, a glowing nexus of light at the center...An angelic chorus playing, a shaft of numinous radiance slanting down from above, like divine light itself-<br/><br/><em>This is...Way more complicated than I thought-</em><br/><br/>And the<em>outfits</em>- She had to admit, they had good taste. They came in two flavors: Flattering and skimpy, but mostly both. It was a plethora of fantasy costumes, oh-so-appealing...In that classic JRPG fashion.<br/><br/><em>I'll just make a quick character,</em>Callie told herself.<em>I'll just get into the game as soon as I can...</em><br/><br/>It took her an<em>hour</em>. Longer than that - Agonizing over some quirk or twist in her build, going back, starting again! Slowly, Celestria (https://i.imgur.com/2dZVK15.jpg), Herald of the Fifth Configuration...A curvy, busty, platinum-haired beauty!...took form, her luscious curves (https://i.imgur.com/CidIWYp.jpg) sheathed in her tight, tight samite-and-gold bodice, her feet arched high on stiletto heels! Like a valkyrie, her rich blue armor (https://i.imgur.com/7F6vQtI.jpg) gleamed in the light, her tools of war (https://i.imgur.com/u0NeIu7.jpg) ever close-at-hand!<br/><br/>Surprisingly, she didn't need to alter her character<em>that</em>much. Celestine's form<em>was</em>very close to Callie's...Albeit with a bit of exaggeration. Fairer skin, for one - No need for glasses - with long, lissome legs and full lips that half-curled in a playful pout...Absolutely radiating confidence!<br/><br/>And then - With one final scan of her stats - one last-minute change of her focus...Callie would reach out-<br/><br/>...To hit CONFIRM at<em>last</em>!<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Celestine's Stats!</div><div class="spoiler_body">Fight: 3 (Swords)<br/>Strength: 1<br/>Agility: 1<br/>Magic: 2 (Holy Magic)<br/>Insight: 1<br/>Charisma: 2 (Diplomacy)<br/><br/>Willpower: 1<br/>Vitality: 2<br/></div></div>
