You stumble across a strange looking Golden Pen on your 25th birthday. It does not look like
it has any worth on the market given that it's made from cheap-looking brass. However, you
feel a weird urge to keep the pen, so you slip it into your pocket for safekeeping.
On your 45th birthday, you feel the pen shiver uncontrollably in your pocket. You take it
out and the constant shivering suddenly stops. More to your bizarre surprise, you notice
a strange etching on the side of the pen.
On your 65th birthday, you once again encounter the strange, unexplained shivering from your
pen. But this time, it begins to glow. Although terribly frightened,
you realise you do not have many years to live left anyway so you consider clicking the pen
to see what happens.
By clicking the pen, you will retire and have to restart your career, losing all your levels and money.
However, you will gain experience multipliers for your jobs and skills equivalent to: 1 + the max level of the skill or job / 20.
This means you will learn everything again much more quickly than you did in your previous life.
Something tells you that the pen might transform even further after living for 2 whole centuries...
Your gut instinct was right. The moment you hit the grand age of 200, you hear an ominous hum coming from the pen.
It begins to write on its own, spelling out: "So you've made it this far... Are you ready to become a legend?"
If you decide to become a legend, all of your levels, money and even max levels will be reset.
You will be reborn as a fresh slate. However, you will unlock a new line of skills and gain
Fame, which will heavily impact your future lives and book sales.
