In fact, right now what he'd most rather is find his pants and figure out what the hell is going on. The beach he woke up on is empty and quiet.
But he'd better get a move on.
The Trial has already begun.
A village-building, dungeoncrawling, RTS LitRPG - taking inspiration from games such as HoMM, Civilization, ANNO, TotalWar, Warcraft, and others.
May contain: Violence, combat, fights, etc. Sexual humour, references, descriptions, and debatably non-explicit acts. Moral ambiguity and occasional sophistication. Nuts.

The After Effects
After it all happened, the Plague created what feels like a whole new world. Survivors created new lives for themselves and carried on with their lives. Me? I didn't get the chance to create a new life. Thanks to my absolutely wonderful father figure, I was forced to become an entirely different person. Thankfully I was able to escape his peachy influence and take some control of my new life. What I don't know is the Plague brought on after effects. Everything changed eleven years ago and only a few knew what actually happened after billions of people died. That all changes one-day though and I found my life completely flipped upside down. Cheers to The After Effects.Complete

Villain's diary
I died a pathetic death, a corporate drone crushed by overwork. Imagine my surprise when I woke up in a fantasy world, not as the prophesied hero, but as the notoriously weak and despised 'Demon Lord's Scapegoat'-a figure destined to be sacrificed to awaken the true Demon Lord. Except, the 'Demon Lord's Scapegoat' has a hidden ability: 'Absolute Mana Absorption,' allowing me to drain and master any magic I encounter. The original story had me dying ignominiously. My version? I'm going to absorb every single spell, every divine blessing, and every forbidden curse in this world. Let the heroes come. Let the true Demon Lord awaken. They'll just be another source of power for my ascension. This diary isn't just my survival guide; it's my manifesto for absolute magical supremacy.Complete

Into the Madness
The world we knew is no more. It's all started with a strange illness spread through sporadic means, incredibly virulent and deadlier than anything human's recorded history could remember. People exposed to those spore turned into living corpses in less than a minute, instinctively preying over the healthy ones with unsatiable hunger. Quickly overwhelmed by the situation, world governments lost control of the majority of their national territories. Whether by pragmatism or pure selfishness, millions of individuals were abandoned by those who swore to protect them. Authoritarian governments were established to protect the new elites and those useful to their cause. Fortune settlements were built all around the world by those who were abandonned, fighting for the meager resources left behind. Mysterious organizations rose in prominence, aiming to become the leader of this new world order. Amidst of this madness, a man going by the name of Aether unlocked the military system, a mysterious technology capable of changing the fate of the entire world.
Dungeons & Divebars: Staying Alive
Every city has one: some hole in the wall that refuses to die, kept on life support by a few crusty locals. The kind of place tourists avoid like the plague, probably because they're convinced they'll actually contract the plague, simply by walking through the front door. Cheap beer, watered down drinks and, for some inexplicable reason, the world's most amazing chicken wings. A dive bar. The decades roll on, neighborhoods rise and fall, populations ebb and flow, but the dive bar abides. The dive bar also has a secret. Were someone to pay close enough attention, they might just notice that the dive bar only seems to attract a certain kind of person. And every so often, that person doesn't come back out. Within the dive bar's weathered walls, order and chaos are in residence, kept in a state of constant tension by the few who deign to enter. Divers. As the Earth continues to turn and people go about their busy days, they do so ignorant of the war that has raged on for centuries, just down the street. A war for control of the world around them. A war for their very souls. Dungeons and Divebars is a collection of novellas exploring the depths of the seediest dive bars in existence... and the horrors that lie within. It's progression fantasy, litrpg, urban fantasy, and classic dungeon diving tales all rolled into one. And the stakes could not possibly be higher. So sidle on up to the bar, give Bob your order, and settle in for one hell of a night.Complete
