"Oooh!" That fight netted me three level ups! Wait why is my health full? Does it get refilled with each level up?
Correct
No reward for that one eh? Probably cause too many people figured out before me. But what happened to the injury on my chest?
It's gone! All praise Proficio Healing! Banzai!
Anyway, 25 unused stat points is pretty good. Alright, 'Add 15 to Agility and 10 to Dexterity'
I don't feel much different?
System are you cheating me?
-1 Wisdom
I am sorry oh wonderful system overlord.
Sarcasm aside so the system punishes back talk, quite the dictator there.
Now onto skills. 'Inspect skill Axe Mastery'
Axe MasteryA skill related to your proficiency with the AxePassiveLevel1 [12%]+15% damage while using an Axe
Minor correction on usage of Axe
That's pretty plain, but the minor correction will come in handy.
'Inspect Berserk'
BerserkA skill when activated makes you lose all reasoning for extra damageActiveLevel1 [0%]-90% to Wisdom and Intelligence
+60% to Strength, Agility and Dexterity
-20% to Fortification
That is pretty crippling for Warrior classes who don't have a lot of Int & Wis to begin with. Wis not so much for me.
Wait classes? Do they exist in the system?
Classes are unlocked from Level 10 onwards. Your class is decided from various factors including:TitlesStatsSkillsPersonality
Sweet classes! Personality? So if I'm cheerful I can't become an Assassin? That sucks.
Right. Upsie Daisy. Time to kill some Walkers. With that I can become level 10 and get my class.
The Walking Dead were even easier to kill than the Goblins especially with my 31 Agility. I made short work of them. I was now level 9 with 20% of the XP needed for the next level. I begin rooting through the apartments, I find a large hiking backpack which reminds me is there an inventory? 'Inventory'

InventorySpace Available: 30 Kilo's
So the Inventory is done by weight not slots. Bummer.
I throw preservable food into the inventory along with a pack of bottled water I found. Time for the next floor. My apartment is on the 3rd of 5 floors total. On the second floor I see two Goblin Scouts, 4 walkers, and two slightly thinner walkers.
'Inspect'
Running DeadLevel11Health80/80StatusN/AUnlike the Walking Dead these corpses are capable of running(duh). They don't hit as hard, but are faster.
So we have 8 enemies total. I would prefer to fight them in smaller groups. I take out a can of food from my inventory and crouch at the stair well. I quickly fling it towards the goblins. As they screech I'm glad the Zombies can't hear cause if they could I was screwed. Proving the Goblins were really retarded they ended up stumbling down the stairs in the anger for having food thrown at them. Now this is too easy. 1 chop. 2 chop.
Fatal Hit
Fatal Hit
The Runners and Walkers are too close to lure them so I guess I gotta bite the bullet, since I already know sneak attacks are worthless cause of my fucking aura. As one of the Gob scouts had a better axe than my current one I pick it up, while aiming my rusted one at a Runner.
*Ding*
Gained SkillAxe Throw
Pretty self explanatory, but the throw didn't kill the Runner. It did do sizable damage but now it was just pissed. It sprinted at me after alerting the other stiffs. Hayai! Before I knew it it was upon me flurrying hits on me.

Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit! That thing took out more than a quarter of my health in 4 attacks! Fucking descriptions!
I can't keep up with it's speed I'm gonna have to use Berserk!

"[Berserk]!"
Once I shouted out the ability, everything seemed to become so simple. Blood, flesh, blades, murder, slaughter. All these things are just another necessity, another event on the road of life. All the while thinking this my body tore through the Walkers and runners while screaming for more slaughter. My body ran upstairs while leaking tremendous blood lust. On the third floor was the same as below, more corpses, more targets, more blood .
Before I knew it I had arrived before the stairs to the roof. Through the door I saw a monstrosity of flesh that put Frankensteins monster to shame, it had cracks in it's multicolored skin which oozed blood, it didn't seem bothered by it though. It's body oozed of slaughter and killing intent. My berserk self felt it's blood boiling. As it charged the monster finally took notice of my presence. It roared, angered at me for tainting it's presence, as if I was a lower being. My Berserk self had the bearing of a King like my title said, thus it couldn't tolerate being looked down upon as if it was a slap to it's face. It swung it's axe madly trying to remove the taint of it's pride while the Monster feeling the Aura swelled in size and blood flowed quicker and in vaster quantities through the cracks on it's body.
Thus it began, the axe with no thought behind it's direction swung as the thing was big enough to where aim didn't really matter.
The monster calmly took the hits, then casually swung it's fist down. The axe was raised to block the strike did little to stop it as it shattered under the force, which knocked my body into the wall. That was when my consciousness faded and Berserk properly took control.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Ugh... *cough* *cough* *spurt*" What the fuck happened!? I pass out and I wake up sputtering blood!?
Blinking notifications flash across my view obnoxiously. I'll start with the oldest one I guess...
Level Up
Huh well that's probably from the stiffs I killed on my way here, no surprise there.
Class Selection has begunExamining Titles... Complete.Examining Stats... Complete.Examining Skills... Complete.Beginning analysis of Personality... Error.Because of Skill use Personality is in disarray.
Will make use of previous data on subjects personality and current personality.
Nani?
So obviously I reached Level 10 but does this mean they gave me a class based on my berserk self!?
I'm not gonna always be in berserk and to be perfectly honest I don't really have much blood lust.
I only kill because I need to. I hide behind a mask of cheerfulness like a fucking coward every day. Fuck! FUCK! FUCK! YOU THINK I WANT TO KILL!? YOU THINK I DIDN'T WANT TO GET MARRIED, HAVE KIDS, AND DIE OF A HEART ATTACK CAUSE OF MY BAD DIET!?
FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK!

Magriculture
When Aurum Industries announced the first Full Immersion Virtual Reality Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (FIVRMMORPG if you're hip) Limitless Online, most people saw it as an opportunity to live out their sword and sorcery fantasies. John, however, saw it as the opening of a new and as of yet uncrowded job market. One he was willing, and eager, to exploit. Determined to make money through virtual hard work and effort, John sets his sights not on the heights of magic or the perfection of the sword, but instead upon the tilling of the soil and the sowing of seeds as he explores the wide and wonderful world of magical agriculture all from the comfort of his own bed. Disclaimer: This is, at best, a very rough draft. I have already had to do one major rewrite and several minor rewrites of entire sections of the story, and it is a virtual certainty I will have to do re-writes again. Such changes may be as small as editing a few numbers (such as going back and changing how much mana an object holds) or it may force me to re-write entire chapters (this has happened once already, and I'm really hoping it doesn't happen again, but... life). Minor re-writes will probably never be posted here. Major rewrites probably will.Anyway, what this boils down to is: If you're looking for a fully cohesive story with few to no errors and publisher level editing, this is not the story for you. If your looking for a cohesive plot that's more than "Man farms, man farms, man farms well, man maybe makes money" you're probably also in the wrong place, but I will attempt to entertain you anyway.

A D&D Gamer in Garweeze Wurld
He doesn't know how he got here, and while the trappings are familiar, he doesn't actually know where he is, either. From the perspective of those around him, Duromar is a half-ogre barbarian, an uncivilized brute by any standard you care to use. But from his perspective, he's a character created in a gaming system. From either one, he must live within the rules of that system. This is the story of a gamer who ends up in a game that's just a bit off from what he knows. ---- I wanted to write something a little bit old-school. Most of the LitRPG I've found seems to be based on computer RPG styled stories. Progression through levels is fast, and depending on the game, skills and even attributes can be trained with or without class levels. This wasn't true with the older pen and paper games, and that's the style of leveling I wanted to write.
