"Hey! Are you going to just lay there!" My eyes flickered open. Standing over me was a short young girl with a face speckled with dirt. Dark braided hair laid upon her shoulders, "come on get up!" She yelled. Still a little dazed I sat up seeing the new thick world I came upon. "Who? What's going on?!" I tried to remember as I rubbed my head. "Welcome newcomer" she swayed from side to side on her toes, "Your lucky I came along. You would have been dead if I was someone else." The new acquaintance said exaggerating the word, "dead". "This here is The Arena." She was quite clam for the most part but she frequently was looking over my head as if waiting for something to jump out. "I must say this quick so... First; there's no way out of here. Second; Find a weapon. Third; stay away from everyone and everything. And fourth; well survive."

Identity crisis? What's that? ---- An earthling's soul was born into an incompatible, human body. Their muscles misbehaved, their skin and body felt like a rigid shell, and their weak constitution left little options for any activities outside of paperwork, books and anything on a screen at home. Then the divine beings tried to correct the mistake and removed the mismatched soul from its unfitting body, slinging it to a distant world with a new body to control. The human flesh-prison replaced with the unlimited options of a shapeshifter, the soul has now a magic-filled world to explore. Grow fur for a mountain hike, grow gills and fins for a deep dive. It's time to catch up on decades worth of missed travels and activities. But who wants to deal with the flesh-craving predators called shapeshifters? Another global purge could start, if the freshly transferred soul shows its abilities too much. ---- The rankings are a mystery to me - especially after this story made it to No. 1 under the shapeshifter tag (and others). Welcome to fantasy amateur hours! This is my first time writing that kind of novel. Hopefully there's a bit of improvement along the way. Feel free to tell me what works or not! Occasionally drowning in irl-work, so chapters will be published semi-regularly, whenever I find some time to write. (Usually updated at least once per week.) If it wasn't obvious already: Cover art made by yours truly.
