Hey guys! This is officially the remake of an old story of mine that was basically an off-brand chaos gacha in Hazbin hotel. It was my first real fanfic, but also the shittiest since it was my first. I personally don't recommend you read it, but I'm not your daddy.
Also this isn't a female protagonist story, it's just the intro.
Enjoy the show!

Love, let me tell you how much I've begun to LOVE since I became human.
Someone, no, something like me isn't very common. It is not very often at all that any sort of God gets bored and wants to live as a human, let alone an old one like herself. Yeah, it turns out that H.P Lovecraft was surprisingly accurate with how her species was portrayed, but he never captured the loneliness they felt.
I myself am an old one, only about 120 million years old, very young for one, but still an old one. Gods like me, no, eldritch beings like me were never normal. I distinctly remember being in a state of unconsciousness for the nascent years of my life, drifting and floating throughout space without any rhyme or reason.
It was then that I discovered a place called Earth.
Earth was beautiful, life festering it and making all of these wonderful things with all of these wonderful people that had these spectacular connections. But, it was bad too. War, genocide, famine, hate, it all circulated around as much as the good.
For the longest time, I wanted to go down there and experience it, experience what they felt, experience the life of a…Human. For millions of years, I tried to psyche myself up to go down there, but I was too scared about what I may do to the planet even unintentionally. I've wiped out species just floating adrift, what if I mess all of this up?
It was only after a few million years that I came up with a plan: I would reincarnate myself.
I would choose the body of a still-born child and put an infinitesimally small piece of my soul in there while my main body goes completely asleep.
So I did it, my wonderful parents being frozen in amazement at the miracle that happened and I, myself, truly becoming a human. I made it so that I forgot what being an old one felt like, my way of thinking being much too alien for a mere child to grow up well-adjusted.
I grew up like that for 5 whole years until I found my best friend. He was just sitting in a sandbox by himself, looking out in the distance before I introduced myself to him.
Alicia Lichenstein met James Richardson.
James was very weird when I first met him. His bravado was immense and he talked like an action-movie star, but that was never how he truly felt. Apparently his parents died only 3 months before I walked to him, James being the only one to survive the car crash.
Eventually, we became the best of friends and he confided with me two things: his dream and the truth about his parents.
His dream was that he wants to be strong, so strong that nobody has to die again. He held true to this dream, constantly studying or working out or hanging out with me. He was truly strong.
And the truth about his parents car crash was that he caused it. The way he described it that he was being an "annoying little prick" that caused his dad to look back and scold him, leading to the truck colliding with all of them.
I didn't judge him, just telling him everything was going to be okay and that it wasn't his fault. He didn't believe the second statement, but I could tell he truly felt better about himself…
Until I died.
It was when we were 15. We both lived in a rough neighbourhood, but we could never expect something like a mugging happening to the both of us. One day while we were walking home from school, someone associated with his aunt, who he lived with, accosted the both of us inside of an alley.
We cooperated, knowing he was carrying a gun, but he wasn't thinking straight. James' aunt owed him a great deal of money, so he figured he'd take away her nephew as a sort of warning… But that didn't happen.
Both me and him struggled and fought, even if it only lasted for a few seconds before a loud BANG rang out from his pistol. James was unharmed, but I… was shot directly through my throat.
My last moments as Alicia were James looking down at me and just shaking my as hard as he could, crying at me to get up while the man swiftly ran out of the alleyway.
When I died I came back as my old self, but I decided to do something. I decided to watch James' life.
There was a funeral, the man recieved the death penalty, and everyone close to me grieved horribly, especially James. The wonder he had, the fire within himself had been extinguished like a candle and it was only made worse when he was diagnosed with lung cancer at 18.
He could extend his life into his 30's with chemo, but he decided not to, wanting to die as early as possible. He got into anime and became a shut-in, consuming every anime he could to attempt to give himself that spark of adventure again, but…Nothing happened.
And today on December 15th, James Richardson died at only 20.
I didn't even think twice on what I was about to do. I grabbed his soul before it went anywhere and brought it to myself, deliberating on what to do with him. I knew he loved living and he wanted to really get strong so nobody had to die like me or his parents, so I decided to reincarnate him somewhere fictional.
Although I said it like that, it really isn't easy. For me to reincarnate him I'd have to sever a large amount of myself, put it inside of him and throw him into the void, a place where everything in almost every multiverse that serves as a bridge. The only way he could even make it through was by absorbing me.
…I'm pretty fine with that.
But, I have to make sure he doesn't die again, I must make sure he survives. So instead of just placing a large chunk, I decided to place all of myself inside of him. This would no doubt shred a human's soul, but as long as I do nothing but act as a gateway to the void to give him things, he could survive.
So now, all I must do to get through the void is give something up. With James' soul in boot, I accessed the void, being met with infinite darkness that required a sacrifice.
…I give up all of my power, all I would be able to do is help this human soul through random luck.
The void shivered, but eventually found my sacrifice as worthy as it made me able to access it. I slowly pushed one of my tendrils into James' soul, feeding myself into his soul and assimilating myself into him.
I wouldn't be Alicia anymore, or even have an ego… But I'm okay with that. I feel strangely at peace with it.
By the time this is over…
[Honesty]
|Severity 16|
You are an honest person, way too honest. You cannot communicate with the intent to deceive someone, no lies, no lie by omission, no clever wording, whatever you say, you say what you mean. So either don't talk or tell the truth.
|Resolve: Acquire a Lie Detector ability or a Deception ability or acquire Adept rank communication/Persuasion|
You might not even be able to hear me.
[Loner]
|Severity 2|
You have the aura of a loner around you, making you often left out. It is more difficult to get people to pay attention to you, and it is harder for you to get recognised for your actions. Your parents probably forgot you at the store too often.
|Resolve: Perform a feat that gets a large range of attention on you, such as publicly defeating a well-known enemy.|
My soul and mind are probably nothing but dust in the wind at this point.
[Cursed Remix]
|Severity 12|
The world you are going to is different from the one you remember, not so much that the flow of fate is completely changed, but enough to make your life harder. Maybe some people have different parents, more monster varieties exist, some people aren't dead, some people are, who knows? There might be more beneficial changes for you, but they are definitely more than balanced out by the bad.
|Resolve: No resolve, one and done deal|
Maybe I'll manifest as a distant memory, a shadow on the wall, or maybe just a random feeling in your heart.
[Curse of Arms]
|Severity 14|
You cannot wield weapons; the moment you try to hold a weapon or try to utilise it to any extent, they will be ripped out of your hands, and you will be shocked by lightning that increases in severity with each attempt.
|Resolve: Roll or acquire at least 5 rare ranked or above weapons and at least one Adept or above weapon skill mastery|
But please, James, all I need you to do is know this…
[Slow Slots]
|Severity 12|
Your ability cooldowns have gone from a 5-minute cooldown to a 1-hour cooldown. Once you swap an ability slot, you must wait at least 1 hour to change that ability slot again.
|Resolve: Acquire at least 5 speed boosting abilities, items, or traits.|
I love you, I love you more than I thought I ever could love something.
[Brand of Sacrifice]
|Severity 19|
You are marked with the Brand of Sacrifice on your neck, which constantly draws the attention of the Demons and Evil Spirits towards you like a magnet. If the world you are in does not have evil spirits, they will start emerging to specifically to target you. Whenever you are near an Evil Spirit or a Demon the Brand of Sacrifice will throb to warn you.
|Resolve: Get yourself cleansed with an Epic Rank or higher purification or exorcism effect, roll a rare rank or higher demon affinity trait, change race to Demonic or get 3 rare rank or above stranger effects|
You are the one that cleared my skies.
[Enhanced Stamina]
|Uncommon Trait|
You have inordinate amounts of stamina, always relative to your current status, so if you were a human with inordinate stamina and became a dragon you would be a dragon with inordinate stamina.
You are the one that helped me truly become a human.
[Expert Kama Sutra]
|Elite Skill|
You are an expert in the carnal, being intimately familiar with picking up signs of arousal and pleasuring your partners in bed. Unless your partner is completely frigid, no one will leave your bed unsatisfied, your skill in bed is unmatched by most. If you were given magic you could probably create Eromancy.
So this is why…
[Incubus/Succubus]
|Elite Trait|
Race Change - You are a dream demon, one that sucks on the vitality of your victim as a Succubus/Incubus. You are more attractive and alluring to your preferred partners. You also possess slightly superhuman stats and increased magical power.

The potency of all Lewd abilities and spells are increased.
This is why I want you to live so badly.
[Altar of Air]
|Elite Item|
HOTA - An altar of fire that collects mana from nature to give birth to spirits of air and lightning, as the owner of the altar these elementals are naturally loyal to you.
It doesn't matter what happens to me.

Your legs are stronger and tougher than average, slightly enhancing your speed and increasing the power behind your kicks substantially.
As long as you can live your dream…
[Racer]
|Rare Trait|
"It was originally going to be -ist". You possess greatly increased agility, allowing you to move considerably faster with your body and increasing your reflexes and coordination to match.
As long as you can love whatever, do whatever…
[Sign Language]
|Trash Skill|
You know how to use the basic sign language of this world as well as you can speak your native language.
As long as nothing can stand in your way and you can keep pushing...
[Shadow Armor]
|Elite Ability|
Allows you to create an armour of shadows around themselves that you can freely alter the shape of, the shadows are very durable and lightweight, while the armour is active your physical abilities are boosted and darkness abilities are more potent.

THE END
So how'd you guys like the prologue? I wanted to shake things up from a traditional chaos gacha story by having the chaos gacha itself already kinda favor the main character.
Anyway, tell me if it's bad, tell me if it's shit, just let me know, alright?
OK bbbbyyyyeeeeee!
