Something I believe I mentioned in the comments before was that this story would have ended right before Greg's first fight, stopping after the chapter with the garage. The original ending for this story would have would have had three paths, a bad end, a neutral end, and a good end.

Bad End: Scene is like the opening from like SVU or something where cops find the naked body of a blond kid shoved in a dumpster in Merchant territory with stab wounds. Greg would have died after his first fight and the E88 takes it as a sign of war from the Merchants and Greg Veder becomes a semi-martyr in the eyes of the Empire. After all, a teenage blue-eyed blond killed on Enemy territory would incite violence among a Nazi-type gang. In the end, a gang war breaks out and ends with Kaiser killing Skidmark personally.

Neutral End: Greg ends up forced into the PRT's hands after getting caught using lethal force on a Merchant. The Wards limit his growth and don't allow him to wound himself to the extent he would like to and nor do they let him fight villains considering he has no training yet. Ergo, he dies fighting Leviathan due to having very little time and means to ramp up to any reasonable level. Think Captain America without the requisite skill against Leviathan.

Good End: The good end actually begins with Greg waiting till the end of the day instead of going out to fight the Merchants, where he tells his mother about his powers and decides to live a relatively normal life. To him, this means dumping all his first few points into WIS and CHA while grinding INT.

Within a week or two, he's finished with his GED and ready to enter college. Come Golden Morning, his mom and Sparky's family have escaped Earth Bet with hundreds of millions of others in a universe-sliding ark he created through researching Professor Haywire's tinker tech due to his interest in Earth Aleph Media.

They land on a new uninhabited earth and with all his CHA, WIS, INT and related perks solely along those paths he was able to gain due to creating advanced medication to fix his problem, Greg Veder basically becomes the God Emperor of Mankind with nearly all that entails.

But all that was before I decided to continue this fic with Tutorial 1.6, so those paths are NOT HAPPENING, if you all couldn't already tell. If you want to write those as Omakes, go right ahead.
