Chapter 6 Influence
Gained 1 State
Patito walks over to the dead goblin. I watch as the body disappears and all that's left is a stamina potion.
Patito: Hey Alex how did I use hand smash when I didn’t have the skill for it.
Alex: well the system said I was considered armor when equipped and usually when equipment has skills their owners can use the skills so I thought maybe you could use hand smash since you equipped me.
Patito: I wish I knew that in the beginning.
Alex: Yeah I should’ve asked the system if I could do that but it slipped my mind.
Alex: but more importantly why were you being pushed back, even if the goblin had higher agility than you, you should’ve been able to destroy the club.
Patito: Well remember that skill Magic Aptitude
Alex: Yeah why?
Patito: Because I have another skill like it called Poor combat it decreases my combat abilities 25%.
Alex: That’s quite a serious debuff
Patito: yeah it is
Alex: can’t you, you know to delete the skill
Patito: I already tried but because it's a race skill it can’t be deleted.
Patito: “There was another reason” he said a bit scared
Alex: That would be
Patito: When I was fighting the goblin it felt like it was real like it's actually gonna kill me
Alex: But didn’t you already fight with a goblin?
Patito: Yeah, but that was with a weapon a spear to be exact so it only took a quick thrust to kill it.
Alex: …………
Patito: ………….
Patito: Anyway enough with the somber atmosphere how was it like being a gauntlet
Alex: “it was pretty cool being a gauntlet I could see everything so I could always warn you of a surprise attack,” I said with an excited smile on my face forgetting about the somber atmosphere from before

Patito: You’re right that is pretty cool
Alex: We’re done here let's start the next part of the tutorial
Patito: You’re right
Alex & Patito : System We’re ready
Are you sure
Y/N
Alex & Patito: Yes
To begin the next phase pick up one of the weapons lying on the ground.
Patito walks over to the spear he used to kill the first goblin he fought
Patito: “This should work,” he says while picking up the spear
You have gained the skill Influence
Alex: I gained what
Once you have chosen your weapon Excel would have gained the skill influence
Influence is a skill that costs 20 mana to use and has a 1 min cooldown
It adds a percentage added to your weapon for 30 seconds.
Alex: Show me Skill influence
Influence Lv 1 Beginner
Adds a 5% bonus of strength, intelligence, or defense in whatever excel is currently touching.
Alex: System Skills can have levels too? Also, what do you mean by beginner.
Skills can have levels too only skills such as mana sense or walking wouldn't have a ranking or level because they serve only one purpose. Beginner is the first ranking out of 4 rankings, the rankings are Beginner, Intermediate, Expert, and Master.
To test out the new skill Influence Say Influence and say what you made you want intelligence, defense, or strength.
Patito: Influence, Strength
The wooden Spear changed in front of my eyes the shaft became a dark gray and the wooden blade had a dark blue light reflected in it.
Alex: That's why we don’t take drugs kids
Patito: Alex really
Alex: What I couldn't resist.

The Rocky Shore
This is a LitRPG series. Every story you read here takes place in the same virtual world, with the same rules and limitations. Characters will travel, explore vast and dangerous realms, overcome obstacles, meet one another, enter into conflicts with one another, forge alliances, make horrible mistakes, and occasionally just die. A technological singularity has been achieved, and humanity has been trapped in a virtual world by a super-intelligent, self-improving artificial intelligence. This program is not malicious at all. In fact, it desires nothing except the happiness and fulfillment of every human it has copied into itself. If its decisions seem strange to you, that's only because its reasoning is far beyond ours. It recognizes that humans cannot be happy without enemies to overcome and goals to achieve, as well as the possibility of failure and death. The world it has created may be heaven or hell, depending on the free choices of the people it contains. The non-player characters who live in this realm have no idea that they are part of a vast computer system. They seem real enough, but there is no way to tell if they are truly self-aware. Even the system that created them isn't certain. This is world in which all the things that humans are used to dealing with in the abstract: skills, talents, knowledge, reputation, social status, morality, even love, exist as readable statistics that players can see and interact with objectively. This has many curious and complex effects on how people perceive themselves and the world around them. A few quick notes on the system: -Death is permanent -The system interface can only be accessed at certain locations. -Magic of diverse kinds is available and useful, but is not a good substitute for skills, physicallity, or mental prowess. Non-magical characters are common and competitive. -There is no inventory system. Characters must physically carry everything they wish to have on their person. -Healing is slow and difficult. Magical Healing is all but unheard of. Protagonists: Raymond Garrison- A man in his late twenties who used to work as a forklift operator in Idaho. His path leads him to work as a mercenary, protecting a small community of humans and goblins from the Seelie Fae who wish to exterminate them. Patricia Chandler- A elderly British woman who arrives in this new world with her grandson Kyle and her granddaughter Elizabeth. Never having dealt with rpg game mechanics before, she is in for a rough time, but she is determined to keep her grandkids alive in a world full of danger and evil. Jamil Mesbah- An Egyptian woman who once worked as a technical writer. Her path leads into a vast and hostile forest, where she must master both her magical abilities and her survival skills in order to succeed. Enjoy your travels, friends.

Shattered Realms - A Pathfinder/D&D game
Broke adventurers looking for a quick and easy paycheck are thrust together as circumstances around them get weirder and weirder. Authors note: This is an ongoing Pathfinder (DnD) game, which will inevitably contain references to other works due to the nature of nerds. Chapters will be random lengths, mostly as long as a game session and depending on how much I can embelish it. Also, some details may change retroactively to maintain consistency. I'm not going to write it as LitRPG, mostly because that's extra work. I'd rather the flow of the story not be interrupted by numbers. I am aiming for updates within a week or two of the game session, which will usually be weekly. Finally, there is a light swearing, gore and sexual references warning. I will update this warning if needed, but will also not write in anything that's too graphic or irrelevant to the story.
