In the void between worlds the Gifter, a being of ever changing form and personality, drifts.
They are always on the lookout for lost souls. Ones that have managed to escape the confines of their universe, whether by chance or purpose, in order to gift them another life.
It has done this many a time before, creating false scenarios or reasons for why a soul receives the life they do, even giving them the choice of the circumstances of their new life at times.
Here it yet again spots another soul, so as it drifts closer it begins to scan the memories, origin, thoughts, feelings, and fate, of the soul before coming to a decision.
It first empowers the soul, finds a suitable universe, then sends it on its way, disappearing into the void, this time with a destination set and the strength to survive the journey.

In an abandoned church in Japan an culmination of negative energy coalesce as a solid form starts to take shape. During this process another strange phenomena occurs as an unusually strong soul is born making what was once a being of pure negative energy into a mix of positive and negative energy.
Those aware of the reality of this world would call this situation impossible, but against all human understanding, it was happening. It is possible in part thanks to the strength of the soul that was born and the feelings it was born from.
Though this is not without consequence, as the form solidified, it became apparent to the newly born being that it was fragile due to the nature of its existence, an inherent knowledge.
It looked around, decided it was safe, then sat in the pews. It sighed before closing it's eyes and began contemplating all that has happened and its circumstances.
It then spoke for first time, addressing itself,
"Well I'm almost certainly in for a bad time."
