The background.
It's the distant future. Humans have traversed the nearby planets. On Jupiter, we found a unstable element called skilltonium. It's atomic structure changed to fit with any other element put in the nearby area, so it is highly valued. When we surfaced the first batch of skilltonium, it bonded with the dirt and iron, creating fiends, who were deformed and presummed brainless. But then it caught sight of the skilltonium, and consumed the first miners and the first batch. From then on, we've been in a war with these creatures, utilizing the skilltonium to bolster our own abilities.
The tech.
When earth's natural resources started to dwindle, we found a way to convert earth to data. We did so, and now earth contains portals in and out of this data world. Only things not created by the data can travel through these portals, because anything made of data dissipates into the portal itself, destroying it. Because everything on earth is data, anything is possible on it. As such, it became a "Hub world" of sorts, for humans to come back to, to relax, sell treasures found on other planets, and to socialize.
The planets.
Mercury - fiends traveled to this planet, overtaking the human population and enhancing their fire related abilities.
Venus - tamed by humans, but inhabited by fiends here and there, this world has become a new earth of sorts. Most human here dislike the data world of earth.
Mars - dubbed, "the discovery planet," tests of all sorts are done here by scientists, because it offers a wide variety of habitats. Fiends here have been tamed, and occasionally work with the scientists.
Jupiter - Battles rage day and night here. Fiends and miners do war continuously for the precious skilltonium. Only for the brave of heart or dumb of mind.
Saturn - only inhabited by fiends, due to the fact that the rings somehow block out portals. No one knows what happens here or beyond this point.
The skilltonium.
Skilltonium had an interesting effect on humans. It bonds with them, and changes their abilities, their skills, based on the personality of the bonded human. Small doses slightly enhance anything, but large doses tend to cause insanity, giantism, and rage. These behemoth humans are forced to leave earth. If they retain any brain function, they tend to become rulers of fiend clans.

You continue down, and in your attentiveness, you see the evidence of large footsteps on foliage. They're slow, and light, but still there. Suddenly, you hear the beat of ginormous footfalls behind you. What now?

You wake up in your room, a little groggy, but awake. You get up, and just like everyday, notice that the room is too small for your liking. It's fine though, so you dawn your equipment and head out of this tiny apartment complex. You check your mail, but it's still empty. There's a group of punks guarding the portal to other places, seems like a movement recently. Around town, you walk across the same posters about jupiter's troops, the capture of Mars, and the upcoming tournament; before you realize that you never had a plan for this walk in the first place. Where to?

I'm giving you a lucky coin (fail 3 coin flips in a row.), for use whenever you want. To use, say,"move x, lucky coin= output". Use wisely.
You manage to do so, and you end up dealing 16 dmg (2d6+6). The chieften proceeds to kick you, sending you tumbling down the mountain for 21 dmg. You: 52/100 chieften: 14/50

You were close to the bottom, but not the quite. Now you are at the foot of it.
You do so, Headshot. He's down. The simulation fades away, and you're back at the recruitment center. It's night, you were in there for a while. You enter the line for evaluation, and get to the desk. "Congratulations, you're in. A little training could make you a valued soldier in any situation. You're first day is two days from now," He adds," if the punks give you trouble, slug the ones with bright pink caps, they're the 'leaders' of the small groups. Just something I picked up on my way to my nearest portal."
You leave, back into the fray of flashing colors and signs that is Athien. You look around, but there's nothing notable aside from a small tourney host, a couple independent skill set stores, and an open portal with more punks around it. What now?

You enter the small building. A man is relaxing in the back. "Hey. Next tourney's in an hour. We've got training bots though, if you want to practice for a real fight." He says, almost as though he read your mind.

That was not what I expected. Kudos to you.
The punks stand there dumbfounded. "S-sure. You can... Go through..." You walk straight past all 7 of them, as though they weren't even there.
You're transfered through the portal on to Mercury. There's a small base set up at this portal, ensuring that fiends can get to it. As you walk out toward the hot Mesa world, you're stopped by a man who looks to be in charge of things around here. "Hello sir, I'm going to have to ask of you're intent and rank. Because it looks as though you are not part of this unit, you may spar with me to prove your worth. If you do not wish to, please exit back to earth, because it is dangerous out there."
