Chang Liam

"Until the very end, he was never able to use his own strength to overcome anything. That was still a heavyweight that pressed him down, forcing him to carry the guilt and shame, holding him back. Whatever he had achieved until now in this new life was all charity. This rebirth was a pity gift that he had received from the heavens. He was not able to protect his sister, he was not able to protect his friend, and even when others sacrificed themselves to let him escape, he had still fallen down. And these were things that he would never be able to remove from his heart. Behind his calm and composed facade, there was only a wild animal that was prepared to devour everything." - Chapter 119
Chang Liam is the main character of Re: Evolution Online.
== Appearance ==
Before the advent of Evolution Online, Liam was small and frail due to being malnourished, described as being skin and bones, one of the factors that made him a preferred torture toy for the neighborhood sociopaths. Following his cleansing within the game, Liam became taller and grew a considerable amount of musculature. His black hair grew longer and he grew into his facial features, becoming extremely handsome.
== Personality ==
Pre-rebirth, Liam was the type to refuse to give in to his bullies, despite not being able to fight back. After the advent of the game, Liam demonstrated great resilience, able to endure the humiliations and tortures of the new world without giving in to despair. Post-rebirth, Liam's years of suffering had made him cold and merciless, being said to possess a deep darkness within his eyes and expressing a willingness to steal, cripple and murder whenever he deems it necessary. He is calculating and resourceful, and also extremely protective of the only person he truly cares about, his sister.
== Story ==
After his parents died, Chang Liam was able to obtain a significant compensation, on which he and his sister Mei Mei were able to live off of through their childhoods, having no relatives to speak of to take them in. From a young age, Liam was a victim of severe physical bullying by a group of his peers, regularly being extorted and violently beaten. Due to his malnourishment, Liam was frail and weak, unable to fight back even though he had wanted to. With the advent of Evolution Online Liam, being wholly unprepared, quickly became a target and was oppressed more than ever as the world came to once again truly embody the law of the jungle. Unable to protect the few people he cared for due to his own weakness, Liam had no choice but to settle for surviving rather than living. He endured endless torture and humiliation to that end without succumbing to despair, including being a slave, until eventually being killed over a scuffle for an elixir. Immediately following his death, Liam awoke at a point in time shortly before the emergence of the game, being beaten by his old tormenters.
With his years of knowledge and experience and his temperament sharpened from years of suffering, Chang Liam resolved that this time, he would not be trampled on, this time, he would reach the peak and protect his family. Quitting school, he obtained a good quality gaming capsule just in time for all of the other VR games to be deleted and replaced with Evolution Online. His first order of business was to obtain gold from a loan shark and use it to hire a crafting room, obtain the necessary materials to create a potion baptism of sorts which cleansed him of some of his impurities and was the first step toward solidifying his foundation.
His next step was to head to the training ground and perform a strange and abstract series of exercises meant to strengthen his body and cleanse it further of impurities. He did this, ignoring the nasty gazes and mockery of the surrounding players, to attract the attention of the instructor and initiate his unique quest, which he did successfully. The instructor entrusted him with a small vial of an elixir.
Work in progress, there's a lot to write. - QuietWinterNight
