You smirk. "Try not to catch a cold when you lose."

He laughs, grinning ear to ear at your acceptance. "I'll go turn the heating up. Go ahead and make your character, I've already done mine."

You give him a quizzical look as he stands up. "You already made a copy of yourself in the game, complete with the exact clothing you're wearing? Were you scheming this from the beginning, or are you just really unimaginative?"

"Yes, that one," he says with a coy smirk, before turning away from you and heading over to the thermostat.

You shrug it off, and pick your controller back up. Navigating to the character customisation menu, you hit new character, choose female, and are immediately taken aback. Unlike the game you're familiar with, where new characters start in their underwear, this version seems to have stripped away such censorship. The blank avatar is completely nude, with nipples and vagina clearly rendered in as much detail as the rest of her body.

Adrian flops back onto the sofa, draping his arm around you once more, and notices your look of surprise. "Ahh yeah, I was surprised when I first noticed that too. It's one thing for the pamphlet to tell us that censorship laws of the outside world don't really apply here. But it's still a surreal experience to pick up a game or movie you're familiar with, and be blindsided by a dick you swear wasn't there before."

"Pretty sure that'd be surreal if one popped up in real life, too," you joke, as you start tweaking your character's physical settings to more closely resemble you.

As you do, Adrian leans forward and picks up the cider bottle again, pouring an extra serving into both his & your glasses. The second glass doesn't seem anywhere near as intimidating as the first, so you're happy to casually sip yours as you continue working on your character.

You get your face, hair & body are as close as you can to your true self. Without even looking at him, you could feel his eyebrows raise when you set your pubic hair to "none." Not that he'd have known the reality whatever you set it to, because you aren't planning on losing your clothes to him.

Clothes are what you still need to set, however. You start with the panties. Plain, black, simple. Then you exit the underwear menu, and move to tops to equip a simple grey t-shirt. Once again, you feel him subtly react, and can sense his gaze on your breasts as he realises you aren't wearing a bra.

Finally equipping a pair of glasses & some loose martial artist trousers as the best example of sweatpants, you select the sword & shield as your weapon choice, and hit save.

Adrian puts his half-empty glass down on the table, and picks up his own controller. "Let's do this."

You quickly set up a match, and notice that his character is weilding the bo staff. Its range could be annoying to deal with...
