MSPAFA Mirror-- Welcome to Aberratio, a sparsely populated world where monsters and humans have always lived side by side. Due to the dangerous nature of these monsters, all teenagers undergo a rite of passage by learning to tame and protect themselves from these monsters. Naturally, they use other monsters to do so. After proving themselves to the skilled tamers, elite tamers, and master tamers alike, they are permitted to travel outside the boundaries of the region, pursue careers, and establish a home for themselves. But more on that later. You look at your tamer application. What is the name, gender, and picture you used for your application? >___
((For the appearance/gender, I will try to do an average if there is no consensus since there are so many options.))

![]() >1 or 8  Okay, 1 and 8 are as far apart as possible. The average could be any of them. And what about name or gender? >9 That's not even an option, why would you do this?! Time for a coin flip to decide!  Naturally, you already know you are Dawson Faustino, and you are a boy. Or at least a random generator knew. You're here to apply for a monster taming permit, and you diligently filled out your application--wait, what's this?  Uh-oh, you forgot literally the most important part! What is your magic specialty? >_____ ---
((doesn't need to be elemental or anything. get creative if you want, baka))

>sneaky shadow telepathy fighting elemental magic You put down your magical specialties. ==> The professor tosses out this garbage piece of paper.
? : Well, this is only a formality anyways.Dawson: Wait, I do have actual magic! Dawson: I'm really good at finding food and cooking it. Dawson: You know, kitchen witchery and stuff. ? : Mhmm.
? : Well, let's pick out your partner now.
? : We'll give you a high-ranking one, since it sounds like you'll die fast.
? : Consider yourself lucky.
==>
She leads you through the back of the office, opens up a door to a dark room, and then pushes you inside. You see three circles illuminate. She does her best to look invested in the formality, but mostly comes off as annoyed.
Rhonda: Welcome to the world of Aberratio!
Rhonda: My name is Professor Rhonda, and I specialize in the research of other dimensions.
Rhonda: But let's stick to Aberratio for now.
Rhonda: In this place, we use monsters to protect ourselves in the unforgiving wilds.
Rhonda: Some regions call them demons, other places Yokai, or maybe even elementals--but today, you get to call one partner.
Rhonda: Go ahead and pick your first monster!
Thanks to your telepathy, you can tell exactly what kind of monsters they are.
>Inspect Porpolyp
Porpolyp - Beast of Anemone - The anemone on its back helps it stay aloft even while sleeping. It uses its antennae to focus sonar throughout the sea and sky.
Porpolyp: ZZZZ...
It appears to actually be asleep.
>Inspect Troot
Troot - Beast of Scavenging - A constantly excited bundle of leaves, it rummages through detritus for insects and arthropods to munch on. The sheen of its crest and jewel indicate its happiness and health.
Troot: HENLO FREN! Let's go on a good adventure together I would like to look for crunchy munchies together with you and show you my pretty feathers check it out ZAP.
The silhoette of this monster seems to be puffing in and out in a display of...pretty feathers?
>Inspect Harlekindle
Harlekindle - Beast of Mischief - Wildfires follow this frog-like creature wherever it goes. It plays tricks on anything that stumbles into its territory.
Harlekindle: HEHEHEHE...want to start a fire? LET'S START A FIRE.
Yep, that's a troublemaker.
What do you pick?

>Choose Porpolyp You form a bond with Porpolyp, the sleeping Beast of Anemone. The silhoette of the monster shrinks, the spell circle around it spins, and you feel its aura sink into your chest. You feel like you've been struck by a wave. Rhonda: It takes a while to get used to that.
Rhonda: You can summon your new monster at any point in time using your own energy.
Rhonda: If you have too little energy, you recharge by having a GOOD REST and a GOOD MEAL, or the equivalents.
Rhonda: Your monsters have their own energy which they use to sustain themselves.
Rhonda: Even without battle, they gradually lose energy over time, so keep them topped up when you need them in the overworld!
Rhonda: But enough of that.
Rhonda: Give it a nickname or something, I don't care.
Rhonda: Just get out of here and let me deal with the more promising candidates.
>Get kicked out. You are now in your hometown of HIERAPOLIS. The HOT SPRINGS & OPEN BATHS, CHURCH, GRAVEYARD, FARMERS' MARKET, NEIGHBORS' HOUSE, and YOUR HOUSE are now available to visit. For the first time ever, you may leave your hometown by going through the FLOURISHING FIELD or the PRECIPITOUS PATH. The rest of the town lies to the south in RANDOM RESIDENCIES and is definitely populated like a normal town would be in normal situations! Your START MENU is also accessible. You have the options to VIEW MONSTERS, VIEW TAMER INFO, VIEW BESTIARY, and VIEW ITEMS. You have the feeling that your START MENU will gradually expand as you explore Aberratio. >_ -- ((holy shit i'm glad i kept porpolyp in because i honestly thought it was an abomination to nature when i finished designing these three.)) |

>Return home to tell your GUARDIAN about the adventure and stuff. The living room is empty. Your MEEMAW is probably taking her nap. >Do what any monster taming adventurer would do and explore every unlocked building and dig through every trash can.  You start with your kitchen. You already know there is nothing there, but something compels you to look anyways. Because one day...one day SOMETHING will be there... You appear to have a MYSTERIOUS ONLOOKER. ===> You spend your afternoon making sandwiches for your adventure while your very concerned MEEMAW watches. You acquire a parting gift of A LOT OF FANCY SANDWICHES, WAY BETTER THAN WUBSAY MAKES. She also forces you to attune to her TELEPATHIC LINE. This means you can contact each other at any point in time and is somewhat annoying, which is why you never did it before. New START MENU option 'COMMUNE' has been unlocked. During your 'practice at tending to yourself,' you decide to nickname Porpolyp ADORABUBBLES. -- ((sketches bc busy right now. and i'm glad the abomination thing is okay, because it gets WORSE. or does that mean better??)) |

Don't forget to visit the market and stock up on supplies, should be useful even with your food finding skills You visit the FARMER'S MARKET, which has every sort of store you could imagine a certain diagonal alleyway to have, plus a lot of produce. But you've already got sandwiches. You acquire a RAINY SLEEPING BAG, three meters of ROPE, a BOTTOMLESS BACKPACK, a BOX OF 10 MATCHES, a BOTTLE WITH A LIFE FILTER, and a MAGIC LANTERN. You also have no more money.

> Time to find somewhere advertising a job for a monster tamer such as yourself! Why train for free when somebody might want to pay you for it? You find the market board littered with advertisements of all sorts. You squint at the scribbles and decipher the following headlines: GRADE S | MONSTER HOARD | LOCATION WANTED | 90,000 REWARD
SEEKING EXPLORERS | new ruins overrun with rare monsters | NEW MONSTERS
Fortune Teller | 1,000 Each | Look into your future. HEAR YOUR PROPHECY
WANTED | SUMMON THIEF | 100,000 REWARD
ENDANGERED -- WHY?! INFORMATION NEEDED
Monster Swarm! Hunters Needed! Grade C | 5,000 each
JOIN THE FIGHT | COLOSSUS WARRIORS
Yeah, that's probably way too many options, but whatever. You need money and practice. >_
