Introduction: "The party is the progression"During a game of their favorite TTRPG, Zach and his friends fall through a portal into a world of monsters and adventure.  When Zach wakes in this new world, he realizes that they didn't all end up in the same spot.  Or the same time.Now he must use his wits — and his connection to others — to survive long enough that he can find his friends and rally them to his cause despite their new lives in this world.  Can he level up, assemble the party, and defeat the Evil Queen?  And what about his burgeoning feelings for his friend?What you’re in for:*A setting inspired by old-school pen and paper RPGs, rather than video games. *A story more concerned with character (and Romance), than heavy progression elements.  Game progression and stats are still key. *A flawed protagonist.  Messy characters.  Good people despite all that.  And bad people too. What to expect:*Scenes of intense violence.*Some frank, if infrequent, depiction of sexuality, but no explicit on page intercourse.  *Lots of strong female characters.  No harem. When it updates: every Tuesday and Thursday.   On a short Hiatus.  Back before end of Summer.  Please check out my other book, Knights of the Eternal Beacon, if you've caught up!Cover I drew myself!...
