Grave Digger Gary Fantasy Action Adventure Supernatural Horror
Where is the last place you want to be when the zombie apocalypse begins?
In a cemetary, digging a grave, of course - which is exactly where Gary finds himself when his world is abruptly initiated into the multiverse. And that's just the start of his problems. Due to a technical error, Gary doesn't get the same character sheet and upgrades as everyone else. Nope. Instead, Gary gets classified as one of the undead. He's a zombie now - except, Gary didn't die. And he doesn't want to, either!
A LitRPG/Gamelit story of what happens when one man armed with a shovel takes on the undead hordes threatening to overrun his reality. Combines zombie apocalypse horror with pen and paper style RPG game mechanics.
Updates are Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at just after 6PM UK time / 11AM PT / 1PM EST .
I've set up a Patreon account here: https://www.patreon.com/gravediggergary if you'd like to support the story and read up to 15 chapters ahead. All support is very much appreciated!
The underlying system on which the story runs is a work in progress (like the story itself!) so there may be adjustments to character sheets etc as the novel rolls out.
Spelling and grammar are British English unless I mess up in which case it's just gobbledygook (please feel free to point out any typographical mistakes or obvious errors, I appreciate it!)
Finally, this story is cross-posted on Scribblehub.
And I think that's everything!
Thanks for reading!

New: The Dark Inheritor
A princess should live her life as a princess, right? Sadly, this is not that story. Oppressed by her father under a sheltered life, a princess is trapped in her cage, yearning for escape. With untapped potential, a strong desire for freedom and exploration, and a hidden fate, she rots behind ignorance. Unknowningly, destined for greatness, a scheme happens behind the scene. One day, a mysterious woman grants her the perk "Defeat Inheritor." From that day onwards, Aisha begins her new life filled with freedom and danger. Corrupted by a madwoman, praised by geniuses, champion of a crazy entity, Aisha travels the vast world of Aelea. Watch this young innocent, ignorant princess bloom into a dignified and fearsome queen. As she ventures forward, she discovers a wider view on the world she was kept away from. She will tackle the hardships and situations that will block her advance. Not knowing how to love, she starts her own harem (unexpectedly). This story is influenced by The Coiling Dragon and Re:Monster. I added some mix into this, revealing some other components that blends fantasy with numerous things. Rating: M 18+ Strong language, graphic content, sexual content, and blood and gore. There will be a lot of lesbian (yuri) scenes. And the cover picture is my own work. I created it. Note: This will be the revamped version of the story, the old one can be found here: https://royalroadl.com/fiction/4699
8 207Bane of Ashkarith
Montelishrian scholar and archaeologist Kaidan Tadegan is working on a new site trying to prove the myth that two armies of the gods clashed there. While digging, he discovers the evidence he's looking for, but he gets more than he bargained for when he discovers a woman's corpse in a section of the dig site where no other corpses have been found. As he digs the bones out, he discovers a journal with the woman's body, which tells a story that---if true---will turn the myths of the old world and the established concepts of good and evil on their heads. Startled by the find, Kaidan sets out to discover whether the diary's claims have any validity.

8 123What We Do to Survive
Orion had never asked for any of this. He would have been happy living out his life in obscurity as son, brother, husband, maybe even father and grandfather. Unfortunately, life and a cruel world had other plans for him. Years later, he joins Avalon Academy, the greatest school of mages in the known world. Unfortunately, Avalon is better known for its incredible lethality and the cutthroat attitude it promotes among its students. The Academy's graduates number among the strongest mages in the world, but only a rare few live long enough to join that illustrious number. Updates every Mon/Fri and some Wednesdays. Absolutely horrible, screwed up things can and will happen, do not read if you are uncomfortable with that sort of content. On a similar note, please be advised that the story contains explicit content. If you do not want to read that sort of thing, then this story is not for you.
