Phase 1 :: The Tutorial
"Again, really? Is this all authors can come up with nowadays? 'Oh they used to be a bandit and then they realized it was the worst class and went back in time!' What is so wrong with the bandit class?" Reynard Black pondered to himself after finding books upon books trashing the bandit class. "They just need to figure out how to use it."

"That will be twelve ni-" All of a sudden in the middle of someone buying something, Reynards body went numb and still, and his vision flashed to a pure white room with a translucent blue screen that began to read itself off in a somehow human yet robotic voice.
"Welcome to phase 1 :: The Tutorial! Luckily it's a pretty short phase, and in here you will get to learn a bit about the system and then obtain a class of your choosing. If you are lucky you might get a rare, epic, or even legendary class! But don't fret, a lower rarity class doesn't necessarily mean it's weaker. You simply are incompetent if you can't do at least decent with it, and were probably destined to get a shit class so someone with talent could get a good one. Anywho, this system is mostly just here as a way to keep better track of all of your skills and stats. It doesn't really do much else besides help guide you. It gives you a pretty nice storage space, but that's really about it. You'll figure out the rest on your own time I'm sure. That was a pretty useful guide to the system right? Now don't worry we are not done yet! Time to make sure you actually even deserve to get a class. Those who pass this test will certainly be surprised by the amount who fail. Any of you who do fail will have this next part erased from your memory as it could definitely be traumatic. You all will fight a raccoon! This fight will determine nothing but wether or not you become someone with a class. Good luck and do your best, tata!"
After the voice stopped, Reynard remained in the white room but the screen was gone. All of a sudden a raccoon appeared in the middle of the room and a booming "fight" burst from the sky.
The raccoon charged at Reynard and he began to realize why this fight may be difficult. You get no weapons. Even as Reynard has a pretty decent physique for a 20 year old college student he still got a little nervous as to the results of this battle as he had never even been in a fight. Yet as the raccoon charged at him Reynard swung back his foot and kicked the raccoon sending it flying across the white room.
"I see." Reynard thought. "So this is a test of guts and also wether or not you are too young, old, or unfit to survive the next phases and potential battles to come."
The raccoon started to get up and at the same time Reynard began to run over to it. As he got near, the raccoon then pounced at Reynard who proceeded to smack it to the ground and stomp on it over and over until the raccoon's body along with its blood that got splattered everywhere disappeared, and Reynard's body once again went numb and still. "You passed the tutorial! Now chose your class!"
