《The Abyssal Dungeon》Chapter 1: Fumbling
Advertisement
An automated message to answer some of the confusion. “What am I? Dungeon Core.” “What is this? The world”. Two answers, two new concepts to deal with. The first, in particular, awakens something in the small blue creature. Memories it hasn’t had, ideas it hasn’t thought, and an instruction it has never heard, dig, grow; birth, eat. And so, it digs. From being completely incased in dirt, silt, clay, and sand a small pocket around the gem begins to form. And as the instinctual joy of growing sets in, the creature remembers its’ second piece of instructions.
“Birth?”
Spawn Creatures
Creatures Available: None
Would you like to select your starting creature?
“Select Creature…?”
Slime
The most basic enemy, formless and weak, with near limitless options to adapt.
Beast
The most myriad of selections, any beast has a chance to be selected should you choose this option
Fungus
Fungus is stationary, or moves at a glacial pace, but the options for toxins and trickery should not be discounted
Plant
Plants are stationary, or move at a glacial pace, but the options for traps and trickery should not be discounted
Goblin
It is said the blood of the Titans runs through the veins of the goblins. The truth of this statement is unverifiable at best.
Kobold
It is said the blood of the Dragons runs through the veins of the kobolds, and while true, it is rare that it will ever awaken.
“…What?”
Of course, this is a monumental amount of information to be dumped onto a young consciousness not even a day old, one who only managed to navigate to this menu out of coincidence to begin with. Thankfully, sheer coincidence has been thought of.
Selection “…What?” not recognized. Would you like a selection to be randomly assigned to you?

“Randomly assigned?”
Random selection has been chosen…
Kobolds have been randomly selected!
Congratulations! You have earned the common title “Randomizer” All future evolutions now have a random chance to become variant creatures
And thus, the young gem has its’ first creature, and first title, granted due to the lack of understanding. What it does understand, however, is that it can now “birth”, though it has yet to understand how one “eats”. Settling back into growing, it decides to wait and see.
And so, the little gem continues its dig to the surface, feeling an excitement stemming from a part of its mind not quite its own.

Everyone was going to suffer and most were going to die, unless they took some serious steps to prepare themselves for what was to come. Diagnosed with Schizophrenia, he was hospitalized for several months until the proper medications could be found to help him control his inability to distinguish reality from fantasy and could return back to a normal school life.But...What if it was the world which was actually insane, and not him? What if he was right? What if it really was time for everyone to get their "Game On"?Warning: Rated M[18+] for language, sexual themes, gore, violence, adult situations, and too much awesomeness.
