A Soul Sorcerer in RWBY

Reincarnation

'What the fuck just happened?!' I thought to myself. I remember walking down the road and then... Ah fuck, Truck-Kun got me. I began to become a bit, depressed. But then I became thankful.

In science, there is no proof that souls existed, that everything that made up your 'soul' was just neurons communicating with each other. And that when you die, all that remains is your slowly decomposing body; your mind and what makes up your 'soul' would cease to exist.

While I believed in science far more than spiritual things and religion, I was happy that I would be able to experience the afterlife. If this even is the afterlife, as darkness just surrounded me on all sides.

Just an endless void of nothingness. I just stared into it for who knows how long. I expected myself to become bored with this, just staring into the abyss, but for some reason I just felt... Neutral.

This confused me, there must be something that's stopping me from feeling the dreaded emotion that is boredom. But boredom never came. After a while, which is who knows how long, the pitch black void turned into a divine white.

"SEAN CALLIHAN!! You have been chosen by the supreme will to reincarnate into a fictitious world of your choosing for divine entertainment!" What the absolute fuck! After processing the sentence, excitement began to well up deep inside me. Isekai here I come!!

"You will have the ability to create your own equipment in the form of a family heirloom. As well as the ability to make your own form of magic! Even a new body for yourself! I shall leave you to your work!" The voice left me in the white void.

But I was happy as ever. So much so that I performed the forbidden dance of salt.

 I got to choose which world I would go to first. And I chose Remnant. While I haven't even finished season one, I chose the RWBY universe BECAUSE of my lack of knowledge about RWBY, so I'm not spoiled about the plot.

Now, what should I create? A glowing blue screen appeared in front of my face. On the screen was character creation, equipment, and magic creation. I started with my new body first. Where I chose my old body with a few tweaks, like perfect back posture, pale skin with sunburn resistance, a lot less pubic hair, an 8 inch dong-a-long, and a couple other things.

I was six feet and four inches tall, which will make me dwarf everyone around me. I had brown hair and eyes and a handsome face. I honestly looked pretty good in my arrogant opinion. 

There was also an option there to make it easier for women to fall in love with me, which I unashamedly turned on. If I was going to reincarnate then I don't want to be forever alone. I also got the option to change certain appearances of the people in the world. I, this time with a bit of shame, made all the girls breasts bigger, like anime big. 

I chose magic next. I decided to go with a soul theme, like Hollow Knight, as the world I'm going to has a lot to do about souls. I called it "Soul Sorcery," catchy eh? I decided that the 'mana' for this kind of magic would be called "Soul Energy." 'Wow, what a great name.' I thought to myself sarcastically.

I then could choose the different 'aspects' of my Soul Sorcery. By aspects I meant the type of spells that could be casted with it. I chose 'Arcane Weaponry' which allows me to summon different kinds of weapons with varying abilities, like a spear which allows me to break straight through an enemy's guard, or an axe that sets things on fire. The higher tier weapons I can summon the more abilities I will have.

I also chose the 'regular' aspect, which is just normal elemental-less spells. Along with the 'platforming and battle' and 'elemental' aspects, as well as 'Charms,' 'Enchantment,' and 'Higher Powers.' The platforming and battle aspect allows me to better use my environment to my advantage, and elemental allows me to cast spells with certain elemental damage.

The Charm aspect would allow me to create different charms to alter and enhance my fighting style. The enchantment aspect would allow me to, obviously, enchant certain things with my magic, giving the item enhanced abilities or just making it overall better.

And finally, the higher powers aspect creates two 'arcane powers' in the universe where the magic resides. Each power would get its own leader, or god. I decided to go with two simple powers that are in almost every fantasy game, The Light, and the Void.

Since I was the 'creator,' so to speak, I would get to be the god of both of these powers. But before I could truly call myself a god of these powers, I had to fill a requirement before that. Which was that I had to find two containers, which I called the hollow vessels, and fill them with the light and void and 'consume' them.

   I then got to choose how one gets and cultivates Soul Energy. I decided that Soul Energy just replenishes over time but stops when you've reached your maximum soul energy limit, and to get a higher limit on Soul Energy you just have to cultivate your soul. And if you unlocked your Aura you get a boost in your maximum Soul Energy limit and regeneration speed.

Now, on to my equipment! For my weapon, I decided to make it a black great-sword with a shining silver trim. And since I'm going to RWBY universe I decided why the fuck not and also made it a fucking auto-cannon.

I also noticed a compare world-to-world option on the corner of the screen. Before I chose my auto-cannons ammo, I wanted to see which was better, dust or gunpowder, seeing that I'm going to have an auto-cannon. I found out that in overall power when it comes to guns, dust and gunpowder are equals.

Dust obviously does more elemental damage and has more recoil, but gunpowder has more impact and less recoil. I decided to go for gunpowder. And thankfully, I would be able immediately 'know' how to make gunpowder, which would be good, as I don't want to run out of ammo.

For my outfit.... I made it a combination of black plate and chain-mail armor, a good combination of protection and flexibility. Since I made my own magic with the enchantment aspect, I could enchant it.

But what to enchant it with? After a moment of thought I decided to go with the enchantment 'Seal of Protection,' and also another enchantment 'Seal of Maintenance.' The 'Seal of Protection' enchantment would basically be Aura for my armor, as it would summon 'shields' made of soul energy to protect me from harm when it detects an attack.

The 'Seal of Maintenance' would probably be very useful, as the armor would automatically repair and clean itself over time when outside of combat. I also decided to put a comfy skinsuit underneath the armor, so the chainmail won't pinch me as I move around.

And finally, I decided to top it all off with a white cloak with the enchantments 'Seal of Levitation,' 'Seal of Maintenance,' and 'Seal of Attunement.' 

The 'Seal of Levitation' would basically allow me to fly like superman while wearing it. The 'Seal of Maintenance' was the same as before, and the 'Seal of Attunement' increases the maximum soul energy limit, as well as soul energy regeneration, along with increasing the power of my spells.

That was everything. I did a couple little tweaks here and there until I was satisfied. Whomever that voice was called out to me again, sensing my completion. "SEAN CALLIHAN!! You have finished your preparations for this new world you wish to explore! Are you ready?!"

Oh my fucking god it's happening! With excitement in my voice I answered. "Yes!"
