Five tabletop gamers suddenly and without warning find themselves thrust into a series of dangerous and terrifying scenarios, forced to adapt and act like characters in a role playing game. They struggle to stay sane and in touch with their humanity as they try and figure out exactly what's going on and how they can stop the endless cycle. The twist? They are characters in a game, being played by the author as he writes the story. Survival Mode is a narrative solo roleplaying game Let's Play presented as serial fiction. Call it a LitsPlay, or a LPFic or something. * This is a solo RPG. It's me, using GURPS and some sort of GM emulator. Likely one that'll change as time goes on. I roll dice to decide what happens according to the game mechanics, and then write it up like a story. * The PCs were created randomly using the RPG supplement Central Casting: Heroes NOW and written up as 75 point characters in GURPS. That makes them somewhat capable but ordinary people unsuitable for a life of adventure, but they have to do it anyway. * The game is written in a narrative third person style. You can ignore the mechanical footnotes and just read it like a story. * We're using pre-written RPG scenarios as our base, but will divert as our GM emulator dictates. This is an Actual Play (simiar to a video game Let's Play) report of a game in progress, one that I play while writing, using real published RPG materials from different companies.

Hello, Logan here. It is 2021, and this is the first book that I ever wrote. It's shit. I'm publishing it back on Wattpad again so my friend can read it. It is unedited and as I left it in 2017. I am currently published with three books out, and this is so funny to look back on. Enjoy reading my shittest work to date. Lots and lots of love, Logan Beadnell-Davies The overarching theme for this first book is a theme of rage and hatred. In the words of a great philosopher; there is no limit to the gruesome and grotesque things we are willing to do in the name of survival. While reading this; Remember that not everything is as it seems. Remember that loved characters will die. Remember that the world will gradually get worse as the parts go on. Take a moment to ask yourselves these questions: What would you do in the name of survival? Would you steal to survive? Would you kill to survive? Would you lose your mind to survive? If you lost your mind, do you think you'd kill more, steal, injure, backstab, rape or any other atrocity you can think of? If you can think of it, then maybe you would. The characters and situations in this book are very real, if gore or horrific mental images scare you, then I wouldn't recommend reading far. DESCRIPTION: The Infection claimed the lives of over 3 billion people before the TV's went off. But it would claim many more. The problem didn't arise when those people got up and started walking again, or even when they started eating and infecting others, it began when people got desperate. In this new world, the true evil that humans are capable of gradually becomes more apparent, and a part of everyday life. Normality doesn't exist, people don't help other people. Friends aren't a thing anymore. All anyone truly has is themselves, and the burdens they carry.
