I was very interested in this ‘identify’ and ‘character sheet’ but was too insulted by the ‘very dumb human’ to pay more attention to them. Angrily, I demanded to know why I was listed as ‘very dumb’.
Congratulations!

*Now stop being a baby. *
How was that friendly? I pushed all the thoughts away and instead tried to focus on my surroundings.
I was on a rack. It was made of wood that was half rotted. The rack was in a large room, though I could only ‘see’ five feet in all directions. Accept through the wall at my back. I tried to move but couldn’t.

SHAPE CHANGE ACTIVATED
Advised shape change;
Arms, Legs and Mouth
Because of your skill, (mana sight), you have no need for eyes.
Do you wish to change shape into this form?
(Y/N)?
Excited at the prospect of being able to move, I thought yes.
Pain.
It ripped through me. I felt the whey being extracted from my every pore. It felt like I was being melted down into fondue, pulled into strings, and then... Nothing.
I tried to move again, and this time I did. I sat up and instantly felt dizzy. Which was weird, since I had no head.
Congratulations!

'Intelligent cheese'

I held where my head should be with my new hands. What did that mean? The system responded to my question almost immediately.
Skill; Voice Box - Rare
Allows the user to learn any language quicker. This is a passive skill; there is no need to activate it. You may choose or choose not to learn a language.
That was useful. I waved my arms and legs around as I pushed myself off my flat side.
Excited, I brought up my character sheet.

Congratulations!
You have gained a title!
Your new title is;
'The Cheese Lord'
You have been crafted by a 'God-like' cheese artisan, you have a big ego and therefore view yourself as perfect.
*Which increases my likelihood of cursing you. *
I was aghast!
How dare the system question my beauty!
The System detects high levels of sass; -1 health point
Pain shot through my beautiful body. Not as severe as when I had grown arms and legs, but it still hurt. I felt it right between my legs for some reason. How rude!
I slowly got to my feet, then stumbled and fell. Which wouldn't be that bad except that I landed on a rotted plank and fell to the cheese rack below with a thud.
*The System thinks you deserved that. *
I glared at the broken rack I’d been in just moments before.
"Will you stop being an a -" Before I could finish my sentence, I was interrupted.
*The System does not think cheese should swear, since cheese should be enjoyed by all ages.
So please take that potty mouth somewhere else. *
I decided that I should stop arguing with a being that might just be in my head and instead think about what I should be doing. I needed to find a way out of there and find the person who owned the cellar and find out if they could help me.
*Before anything the System would like to say that it is very rude to say that he is only in your head, though he can't tell you that you're not crazy, he assures you that he works very hard to help Adventurers and is diligent in helping beautiful women.
Anyway…*
Congratulations!
You have earned;
Quest Log!
You may now log quests!
Three new quests added;
- Stop being weak. (The System has added this for your 'Benefit')
- Get out of the Cellar. (Get out of the Cellar)
- Find the owner of the Cellar. (Find the owner of the Cellar)
I scowled, my wax wrinkling. That just proved that the System was a douchebag. Weak? Just because I was level one did not make me weak!
On the contrary, the System assures you that for a level one you are particularly weak.
For instance;
Most people when they reach level one; 10 of 50
You; 1 of 50
That is the point and case.
I couldn't help but wonder what kind of lunatic had created the System. Probably someone who enjoyed torture. All forms of it.
Trying not to think about it, I started to look for a way down.
