Out-Of-Character: This is a story, written randomly in-game of my current main survival world.
I am using the mod "millenaire". For this story.
In case you don't know what that is, it's a mod that adds cultures, trading, and more villages to the world, as well as quests.
I started yesterday, and I never actually wrote in this style before, so feedback and comments are welcome.
I am also unsure if I posted this in the right section of minecraft. I think so.
I will record this thing in logs. Not in entire days, or specific minecraft days, I might just go 2 minecraft weeks forward in a single log, but then that's mainly because nothing interesting happened in that time
I am also going to assume I look like "Steve", instead of my normal skin, which is a lava golem
Some of the actions described here are my own take on the game mechanics transformed into "reality" for my character.
Same goes for the mod Millenaire, not everything I describe here in this story work as in the mod.

Log 1: "...First, there was nothing. But then, the light pierced my skull..."
I woke up in a forest. The moo-ing of nearby cows awakened me. Grass sticked to my face as I work myself up.
Who is this, talking in my head? Is it me? I have no memory... nothing, as if I just came into existance.
But how did I learn to think, to talk?
Doesn't matter, I will find out later.
I stood up. My legs were shaking. I collapsed against a nearby tree again. Birch.
Birch? How did I know... no, don't question too much. I must survive first. Rest comes later.
I stood up... tried it, at least. Keep trying. And I succeeded.
I looked at my hands. I felt a tingling sensation, flowing liquid power from my head to my hands... my fists became rock-hard. I punched the tree. And again. And again.
Look... now this is something I can use. Euphoric adrenaline rushed through me as I punched the whole tree down, and collected the wood in my... I don't know what it is... looks like a magic pocket to me. Just use it.
I looked at a nearby cow. It was not my cow, just a wild cow. But I needed food. Again a sensation of power from my mind to my fists. I punched the cow, it moo'd in pain, and ran away. I was faster, chased it down. Punched it more. The cow collapsed, and I tore away some of its flesh. I could eat it raw, but I was not hungry yet. No, I would save it for later. I put the meat in my little magic pocket, which could clearly store massive amounts of goods. I wonder... no! don't wonder yet! survive! survive!
I looked around. More cows... I punched them all. Even collected some of this tough skin, looks like it could be useful in the future.
I went back to the tree I was born next to. I noticed the leaves fell on the ground, but also other things. an apple! and some... saplings? I will take them, save them, use them later.
Motivated by this, I punched down more trees. More wood, more saplings... no apples, to my disappointment.
And then I saw some light. Fire and smoke! I ran to it.
A chest, surrounded by two torches. I took the torches, and looked in the chest.
Four axes, a wooden pickaxe, some wood, and... wooden planks? How did you make that?
I looked at my little magic pocket. There was something else, I hadn't seen it before.
I took it out, and it expanded as a small table. I put the wood on it, and it showed me it could convert it to planks.
Interesting discovery. I tried it with everything else I had. With the meat, the skin, the saplings, the apple, the tools. Nothing.
Oh well, I'll leave this for now. I put the device back in my magic pocket.
I began to explore the forest. I started running to... north? Eventually, I reached the edge of the forest, and there were plains here. No trees, just grass, and some other animals. Cows, pigs, and sheep.
I saw a jungle in the distance, but it looked dangerous to go there now. There were mountains next to it, I decided to go there first. Felt safer, and more interesting. I could climb the mountains, and maybe orientate myself. I began walking to the mountains, and then I heard a sound!
Ping! ping! ping!
What's this?!
I looked at the device I didn't know I had in my pocket. A small screen lit up, and symbols and glyphs appeared on it. I could read it.
"New village found, 174 meters to the north-west."
This time I couldn't help myself. Where did this thing come from? No answer. I didn't know.
Not knowing why, I looked up to the sky. It was blue, but getting darker as the sun went down. I heard groaning, and hissing, coming from the forest behind me. I do not know why, but I felt fear. I began to run to the north-west.
I saw some of these creatures... I punched them away. One of them, green and sad, exploded. I was hurt, but I continued running. Arrows were shot at me, and as I dodged them, I saw they were fired by walking bones. And I saw people like me. But... green and rotting. They were slow, but followed me.
I had no time to think. I saw light in front of me.
People! I ran faster, even though I was nearly exhausted. I ran inside the village, to the safety of light. As I approached, I heard screams and yells coming from the village. I knew why... I was drawing the monsters to them!
Some of the villagers looked at me before running on, most ignored me. They were carrying bows and swords to kill the monsters. Their skin was yellow, their eyes nearly shut, but I knew they could still see me.
One of them took me by the arm, he was strong. He dragged me to a large structure in the center of their village. There was someone there, dressed luxuriously. She looked at my escort, and talked to him in a high-pitched language I could not understand.
She looked at me now, with her head up, and a stern look in her face. She began to talk... in my language. How, I do not know.
"A not-so-warm welcome to Ise, Stranger. You can stay here for the night. Tomorrow we will talk again."
"I... I am... so sorry." I replied.
"What is your name?" She asked.
I paused. I didn't know. I looked at the little device from my magic pocket I could also use to transform the wood into planks. Then the name struck me... Xolarix.
I looked up, straight in her eyes. "Xolarix" I answered.
"I am Nana Abe." She said.
She then proceeded to turn around and walk away. My escort left me as well. I was safe... but I was not sure if I was in good company here or not. I would make it up to them tomorrow. Now... I first have to rest.
I decided to wait out this night in a corner of this building. I pondered about the things I discovered today. But, my eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and I fell asleep.

Exaggerated? means I'm doing it right
The character just came into existance, has no clue where he is, what he is, who he is.
He has some basic knowledge, and basic tools... but that's about it.
He's right now only driven by emotions and the need to survive.
This is how I think someone like that reacts to the world of minecraft
