Flight 0 – The Creation of the Universe:
On a large, sandy planet a lone figure riding a flying motorbike races towards the edge of a large cliff around 5 miles away. As he glances at the small countdown at the edge of his vision he notes the time, 400 seconds and counting down. Revving the engine up, and increasing the speed the Flyer roars towards the cliff at break neck speeds. With 34 seconds remaining on the countdown the rider gets off the bike and looks over the cliff towards the setting sun. When the countdown hits zero, bright spots of light appear, one popping in after the other until the entire sky is lit with thousands of different colors all trying to dominate the crowding sky. Then in a flash of searing light everything turns black, as if the world shut off all light. A box appears in front of him,
You have Died.
One level is lost.
Skill proficiency has decreased
Due to your death your last 5 stat points have been removed,
You can earn them back when you next level up.
Over this box another quickly appears,

When he logged out and removed his Unicorn VR headset, the young man got up and washed his face, as he thought of the last month of game play he shivered with excitement for when SPACE AGE would be released for real.
The next day the long awaited video came up. As a man, around 25 with a strong steady look, walked into the field of view suspense built, “Hello,” the man said in a deep voice, that was calming but authoritative,” I am Charles Gouth, CEO of ViviTech , and lead developer of Space Age, We are happy to announce that in one months’ time the second ever V.R. game will be for sale, The Space age team is happy to see the public’s response to our endeavor and can’t wait to see you all enjoy the game we have created.” With a slight grin appearing at the edge of his mouth and a small chuckle the screen fades to black and the words ‘ Space Age, The Greatest Adventure, come on screen. Then the clip ends. When this video first come online social media blared, the Space Age website was so overloaded that the site was shut down, and the video had to be re-uploaded to YouTube and other video sites in order to be watched.

Everyone was waiting for the next V.R. game after Royal Road came out three years ago, and ViviTech was the first to answer. Space Age was in fact ViviTech’s only game, the Companies history goes as this. When Royal Road first came out Charles Gouth was only 22, board with his college classes Charles and his two friends, Vanessa Gibbs and Josh Manns, and after a year of work they made a program suitable for sale, and presented their products to Unicorn, ending up in a partnership that allowed Charles and his friends to create ViviTech and start the production of Space Age. After a year and a half of production and refinement the closed beta was released to 300 lucky individuals who played in 30 groups of 10, each group testing different aspects of the game so that they didn’t have complete knowledge of the game before it was launched. After a month, and countless interviews with developers and beta testers, passed 200,000 Americans coast from coast held their breath.

Lawman.
Lawman follows the exploits of Relovan, a Human Police Enforcer stationed on the BlargonianPlanets – a series of small planets on which pure Essence is mined, and refined into fuel. On hisday off, he finds himself and his fellow Enforcers caught up in a fight between two Void Lords,beings of immense power, who answer only to the Council, after the pair of Void Lords touchdown on the Station, seeking to refuel their respective Void Walkers. In the ensuing clash,Relovan punches above his weight and subdues a number of Void Knights – those in the serviceof the Void Lords – before becoming directly involved in the confrontation between the VoidLords themselves. His performance during the incident catches the attention of the current PoliceChief, Nura, who essentially takes him under his wing, and assists him in various ways,including when he is summoned to answer before the Council for getting involved in the spatbetween the two Void Lords. The book ends after the conclusion of the Hearing.Relovan is a stickler for the Law – something that prompted him to learn not only the laws ofvarious territories and planetary systems, but also the native languages and customs, so as touphold the law as best he can. As a highly trained, and immensely skilled former soldier,Relovan’s abilities along with his latent talent regarding the use of Essence, allow him to hangwith beings infinitely more powerful than him. Lawman is a full length manuscript that I will likely self publish once I have the artwork for it.
