Paperback. He died fixing other people's locks. She woke up in someone else's body, in a world that grades souls like salvage and marks hers for deletion. The railing gave way. The fall was final. Dane Pell knew the sound a finished thing makes, and that was it. Then she came to face-down in a salvage field that stank of iron and rot, breathing through a stranger's lungs, staring at hands that were too small, too thin, and unmistakably not the ones she died with. She had been a man. She had been good at exactly one thing: naming the parts of a problem until the problem opened. Now she is a young woman in a dying town perched on the lip of a place where the ground simply stops and reality shimmers and crawls at the edges. This world runs on a System. Everything, every person, every door, every street, carries a record and a grade. Climb the grades and you grow stronger, harder to ignore, harder to erase. Fall, and the System scrubs you from the world like skin off a fruit. They call it the Scour. Whole towns have been edited out of existence, every record lifted clean away, as if they were never written at all. She should have been graded like everyone else. Instead, the System rewrote her, dropped a dead man's mind into a body that was never his, under rules nobody will explain. And the only Access she has been handed is the strangest rung on the ladder: the power to hold a record in place. To keep a door a door. To stop a thing being unwritten, just for a little while. It is not much. But someone who spent a life inside locks knows that the smallest mechanism, understood completely, can open anything. Inside Character Creation: - A System that grades every person, object, and place, and can erase them- Visible, earned progression: real Access tiers, real costs, real stakes- A protagonist whose old-world skill set becomes her deadliest weapon- A gender-bender premise played for character and survival, never for shortcut- A buried mystery: why was she rewritten instead of simply graded? To survive, she will have to climb the System rung by rung, BIND, UNWRITE, and the deadly Access above them, learning the rules faster than the world can rewrite them under her feet. To matter, she will have to make herself worth a second read. And to understand why the System reached past death to choose her, in this body, she will have to walk straight back into the kind of power that erases whole towns. Character Creation is a clean, fast, mechanics-rich progression fantasy for readers who devour He Who Fights with Monsters, Dungeon Crawler Carl, and The Wandering Inn, a LitRPG built on a System with real teeth, a hard transformation that costs something, and a question buried at the root of the world. The grades are real. The climb is earned. And someone went to enormous trouble to put the wrong soul into this body. Start the climb today. The System is already reading.

The railing gave way. The fall was final. Dane Pell knew the sound a finished thing makes, and that was it.
Then she came to face-down in a salvage field that stank of iron and rot, breathing through a stranger's lungs, staring at hands that were too small, too thin, and unmistakably not the ones she died with. She had been a man. She had been good at exactly one thing: naming the parts of a problem until the problem opened. Now she is a young woman in a dying town perched on the lip of a place where the ground simply stops and reality shimmers and crawls at the edges.
This world runs on a System. Everything, every person, every door, every street, carries a record and a grade. Climb the grades and you grow stronger, harder to ignore, harder to erase. Fall, and the System scrubs you from the world like skin off a fruit. They call it the Scour. Whole towns have been edited out of existence, every record lifted clean away, as if they were never written at all.
She should have been graded like everyone else. Instead, the System rewrote her, dropped a dead man's mind into a body that was never his, under rules nobody will explain. And the only Access she has been handed is the strangest rung on the ladder: the power to hold a record in place. To keep a door a door. To stop a thing being unwritten, just for a little while.
It is not much. But someone who spent a life inside locks knows that the smallest mechanism, understood completely, can open anything.
Inside Character Creation:
- A System that grades every person, object, and place, and can erase them
- Visible, earned progression: real Access tiers, real costs, real stakes

- A gender-bender premise played for character and survival, never for shortcut
- A buried mystery: why was she rewritten instead of simply graded?
To survive, she will have to climb the System rung by rung, BIND, UNWRITE, and the deadly Access above them, learning the rules faster than the world can rewrite them under her feet.

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.

Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
