《The Necromancer Sol (Rewrite in progress)》Announcement/Update
Advertisement
2 Years ago I decided I wanted to write a System apocalypse Necromancer story. I have a personal rule where I don't ever want to write in a genre if I can't add something. I want to have a take that adds something. So I tried and people liked it. It did way better than I could have possibly ever imagined. At one point I made it to top ten trending. It went better than I ever could've hoped. My problem with writing is that I do way too much world building that never makes it to the story. I will write out a plot that wont appear for hundreds of pages. I make character sheets and google docs fifty pages long instead of actually writing. I waste all my creative energy on theory crafting. Over the last 2 years I've had a ton of different ideas and my google drive is filled with prologues and a couple chapters of stories I never posted.
I always stop before I get to the point where I feel comfortable posting it. Back to this story though, so for rambling. I wrote myself into a hole. Truthfully I hate so much about The Necromancer Sol. It has a ton of problems and inconsistencies. Here are some that irk me.
1. Why the fuck is control a stat? literally makes no sense for summons to take up points in your stat sheet.
2. Why do warriors need mana to use abilities? Thats dumb as hell.
3. Different classes giving different amount of stat points. (Ive always hated this).
4. MC gets random bullshit unique skill
5. That weird rogue part I wrote with the first miniboss.
6. He gets his arm cut off and somehow runs a fuckton without bleeding out.
7. He didn't plan his build well.

8. Control Undead is the stupidest skill I ave ever came up with.
9. How does the Big bad necromancer get his undead stolen? I wrote him as like a huge level guy and he gets his summons stolen from a level 20?
10. Greg levels up WAY TOO FAST,
11. The stats I picked for the system suck.
All of this is just to say that I am in the process of rewriting the story. I have a prologue and 3 chapters done right now. I changed a lot, it's a very different story than before. But its finally the story I wanted to write and tell.
I won't take down the original chapters because I want to preserve the history Of what I wrote.
There will be no set schedule for updates this time, I work significantly more than I used to. I am rewriting this story as well as another story that has 2 chapters out right now. (link will be below.) I want to take my time and be happy with what I post instead of rushing to meet a deadline.

An Unwilling Monster
In the city of Kholakel, the highlight of the year for the upper classes is the annual monster pacification of the misty woods. Ostensibly it's a culling of the monster population to prevent them encroaching on urban areas, but it's an open secret that it's actually treated as more of a blood sport, the participants competing to score the most kills. After all, why else would the politicians and elites of the city bother to attend personally? Given the intense competition and high-tech weapons and gear in use, one might wonder how the forest has not yet been completely depopulated. As this year's culling approaches, a group of unfortunate children are about to discover the answer first-hand, but thanks to an unexpected twist of fate, one of them will score the chance to play the role of the hunter instead of the prey. This was an attempt at writing something darker than my usual fare. The story I actually ended up with isn't as mean to the MC as I'd originally planned out, to the point that I'm not sure the story deserves the horror/grimdark tags anymore, but this is still an unfair world with unambiguously evil antagonists. Chapters are short to start with, but get longer once the first act is over.
