Now I know this is largely unrelated to RWBY (except for the hero concept). This is a pure text interactive novel which features you - of course - as a newbie hero trying to climb the steps and become a true, world class hero. I actually started with the second game first (Heroes Project) by chance, so I didn't bother backtracking to play Book 1.

Still, you're given the choice to set up the basic background info and story derived from Book 1, so you don't actually feel awkward starting in the middle of things. A very good idea in my opinion.

Anyway the point is, you of course, get to rename your characters and stuff. And so I did.

First, I set the gender of my character as female (male for the first two runs because I'm duh, male. And then I got creative).

Next, I gave her the first name Ruby.

Then, I gaver her the codename Red.

Later, I changed her family name to Rose.

I set the MEChip personality to be sassy diva, and named it Yang. And believe me, she does sound like her. Kinda.

I also changed the family slogan, 'Thus Kindly I Scatter'.

Her ex (or not) girlfriend is called Black Magic (sadly you can't change this, BUT), who looks a lot like the super celebrity named - you guessed it - Weiss Schnee.

But apparently Weiss - I mean Black Magic's super powers (altering reality) drains lifeforce from disabled people, so you may choose whether to be fine and cut away your relationship. Would you?

Later on, somewhere in the middle of the chapters, you'll meet the heroine Lucky that's surprisingly familiar, which you later identified as your childhood sweetheart. Her real name is of course, Blake Belladona. Though of course you may switched it around with Black Magic because it'd probably fit better? Whatever.

The only thing that's lacking is the choice to choose your powers or weapon. But since the MC's Infi power is the manipulation of atoms (effectively creating nuclear reaction or manipulating gravity), you could just pretend that the MC's wielding a giant scythe completely disporportianate to her size because of her Aura. I mean Infi powers, but whatever.

Suddenly the immersion feels a hell lot more fun even though I went through it twice already (even though it was a really good read at the first place).

Wanna try it? =3
