Naruto [The GAMER]

Chapter 5: [5] "20 points to allocate, huh?"



Gamer's Body - Your body is that of a Video Game Character… somewhat at least - You recover HP and CP when sleeping - 100% in your bed, 75% in someone else's, 50% in a sleeping bag or tent, 25% on the ground or in the trees

Gamer's Mind - Your have the mind of an RPG Gamer, so keep your calm and make some wise choices… hopefully. You are able to calm yourself more easily, but be careful, extreme emotional distress can still affect you.

Well… that's a thing. Now that a calm was enforced over my mind, I began to consider an important question. 'At what point in time am I?' I questioned myself, laying in the bed completely still. I was pre-massacre obviously, at least… I hoped so considering I heard movement in the house I was in at the moment.

It was at that moment memories began to assault my mind as I tried to sort through them, images of what could only be my parents flashed through my mind, undergoing basic training with my father as he began to teach me the Uchiha taijutsu style, learning chakra control from my mother, starting at the academy, impressing my parents and clan elders by learning the Fire Release: Great Fireball Jutsu.

It all came rushing at me, filling my mind for several moments as a gasp escaped my lips. And just like it started it was gone, the memories remain, just waiting for me to call on them, but the pain from the rush of them was gone.

A knocking on the door broke me out of my thoughts as my mother called through the door. "Yuriko-chan, it's time to get up," she said firmly.

"I'm up!" I call back as I sat up, my covered dropping from me to show the simple t-shirt and shorts I wore to bed.

"Alright, breakfast is on the table, and your father is eyeing it~" my mother - it was strange but not strange to call her that. Weird, right?

"Just getting dressed!" I called in return automatically, letting my instincts take over somewhat as I hopped out of bed and headed out to the dining room.

"Good morning!" I called out to my parents as I came out of my bedroom and moved to the table to eat my breakfast, my memories telling my that eating was the first thing I did before getting cleaned up.

"Good morning, Yuriko-chan," my father greeted, a solid looking man with a wiry build and creases on his face, showing his middle age with the standard black colored Uchiha hair cut short and his onyx colored eyes glinting in amusement.

"Good morning," my mother returned, placing some more food on the table, a motherly looking woman with soft curves and a gentle face, her hair differing from most Uchiha being a light brown in color, although she did retain the typical Uchiha black eyes. "Ready for your test today?"

I quickly consulted my memories, I did indeed have a small written test today that I had spent studying for last night. "Uh-huh," I replied with a nod as I began to dig into the meal before me, bacon and eggs with some toast. "It'll be easy!"

My parents (So damn freaky on an intellectual level!) chuckled in amusement at my eagerness. "Well, when you get home, we can get you started on the next level of chakra control," my mother informed with a gentle smile.

My eyes lightened up as my memories supplied what exactly that was, FREAKING TREE WALKING! "Awesome!" I vocalized my enthusiasm for what I felt was one of the most underrated techniques out there, I mean seriously, you're telling gravity to fuck off and jack it while you RUN UP WALLS! Only thing better was walking on water like some kind of ninja-Jesus!

My mother chuckled in response as she ruffled my hair playfully making me giggle in response (Did I really just giggle!). "Come on, go get a shower you, don't want to show up to class all stinky, do you?" she questioned with an amused grin.

"Right!" I replied as I climbed down from the table and headed for the bathroom, my feet automatically tracing the steps there.

Once I was in the shower with the water running I let my body run on autopilot as I opened the Status screen. "20 points to allocate, huh?" I murmured to myself as I looked at my stats, uncertain what I should go for. "Hm… uhh… help screen?"

A helpful little box popped up for me.

HELP

This is a basic primer on what each aspect of the screen means, refer to this if you are confused or uncertain about an effect or ability of you Gamer power!

Level - Your current level of strength, the more you learn, the higher of a level you gain, with each level you get 5 Stat Points to allocate and an bonus according to any related perks!

EXP - You gain experience with every action you take, this will accumulate to a level up, certain status effects can increase or decrease the amount of experience gained

Age - Fairly self explanatory, how old you are, you age can affect how people act and behave towards you!

Gender - Again, not much of an explanation needed, but certain missions are only available for each gender!

Title - Titles are gained through your actions and behaviors, be careful through, as not all titles have a positive effect on you.

HP - Hit Points, your health, this hits zero and you are DEAD, just so you know, there are NO retries or loading up saved games, so you better not hit zero! Calculated by multiplying base STR and VIT

CP - Chakra Points, a lot of your actions require chakra, and if you hit zero and try to use more, not only will you gain a debuff, but the power will come from your HP instead, so use very carefully. Calculated by multiplying base INT and WIS

STR - How hard you punch people! Critical for Taijutsu and weapon wielder builds as well as your standard Carry Weight capacity!

INT - How smart are you? Intelligence will affect how easily you can memorize things and figure out the complex math and sciences.

DEX - Your dexterity, how well can you aim and coordinate your body, if this is low, you are more likely to trip, hurt yourself with thrown kunai and shuriken and cut your allies with your sword!

VIT - Vitality, how healthy are you? This will help with shaking off poisons and debilitating effects like concussions and illness.

WIS - How well you can make a decision, being smart is one thing, being wise is completely different ballpark. If this remains low, you may very well end up accidentally defecting from your village due to a string of poor decisions!

LUK - Lucky lucky! Has a hand in many different things, a little luck can go a long way, but sometimes, Lady Luck isn't around, so be cautious!
