Hush now little ones, I have a story for you. A story of a man who became an entity.
Beta's story began with a wanderer, not unlike you my friend. This man, 25 years of age and about 6 feet in height, was Beta. Beta was hit by hard times in The Frontrooms and was on his way to sell some of his possessions at a pawn shop nearby when he tried to lean up against a wall to take a rest. Emphasis on the 'tried' as, upon putting his weight against the wall, he noclipped through it, therefore starting his tale.
Our real story begins long after that, when Beta wandered his way into Level 54 and saw some Wolven. What are they? he thought, and then answered himself with; Whatever they are, they're built different and I'm built different.
With these words, The Giver made him built different, giving him the same powers as the Wolven, but amplified to a degree that made him nearly invincible. Beta was then forcefully thrown into Level 230 with a parting message of; 'Stay out now, that's all you get!'. After spending some time in The Library and fighting off a few entities, he meets one of The Phoeni, Crystal.
She appears to him in her human form and he asks her what she is. "Don't you mean 'who are you'," she asks. He shakes his head and at that point she realizes that he's not just a normal wanderer.
