Noah, an overweight 20-year-old engineering student from New York, wakes up one day on Prixa, a world with agile feline warriors called the Feka battling the evil Shadowalkers, a werewolf colony bent on eliminating the Feka to strengthen themselves. Noah is granted a 'Blacksmith Apprentice' class and can 'Create' with items gained from killing creatures in battle. When he stumbles upon the Fekan settlement, he learns that humans in this world are actually non-magic users and slaves to the Feka masters. He gets out of breath just walking up the stairs, and he's never battled anything in his life. The only experience he has with weapons is an old slingshot, shooting pigeons outside his apartment window in Brooklyn. Can he survive in this hostile world with only his crafting powers and slingshot? Can Noah learn to create items to help the Feka? Does he want to free the human slaves from the cat overlords? Or does he want to rise in power and join the evil canine warlords?

Imagine if you could fully enter a game and play as you are, fully experiencing everything as you would in the real world. That is the dream of the full dive system. The only problem is there is currently no idea what that may do to the human psych and body. Well for Scion this opened a new door of opportunity. Dieing from an unknown disease he is given a choice. His body will be frozen allowing time to pass for a cure to be developed and although the body will be at rest the mind stays active. Thus making him the perfect candidate to be a test subject for the new full dive system. Or die. For Scion the choice was simple, with nothing left to live for and no relatives to worry about, he'll become the first test subject for the new full dive system. The only catch is, the system might kill him itself. Join Scion as he travels an unknown world, tempting fate as the new system is developed.

The Alchemist is considered the most useless of all the 5 classes offered in the Virtual World of 'Hell's Gates'(Warrior, Archer, Mage, Cleric, and Alchemist). Having little to no Combat Skills, and relying on real-world Chemistry Knowledge (a Lost art of sorts,) to make anything more than the most basic potions, they are very rarely seen past the first or second level, because most people change their class after seeing its uselessness. Still, this class allows Sam to spread her literal and proverbial wings as a Chemist and Inventor in a world where such a skill set is actually very valuable! Of course, with the rarity and value of their skills comes a plethora of problems, and most don't last very long at all, but Sam is determined, damn it! Hopefully, being stubborn and lucky in equal portions will be enough to survive and thrive in the world of Hell's Gates? (((Complete!!! Perhaps there'll be a Book Two if this gets enough attention???)))
