"IRL, it would make you the maker and ruler of what we call "reality" as well as a part of it, meaning you're basically your own creator" This is exactly why I avoided this point. In addition to the fact that you are still detached from the story and already have omniscience knowing every factor, every event, every contingency, you would'nt need an avatar to guide anything because it would be redundant and a deux ex machina. You're forced to make your avatar faign surprise, fake vulnerability, act as if their blind to a twist, just as a minor element of intrigue. And I wouldn't think avatar is the correct terminology, you are pretty much making an in-universe clone that is perfect or imperfect based on your intentions while you are still transcending that reality controlling the story beyond.
