《Mother's Basement Studios》Major Interviews: OneSteelCalf
Advertisement
Major_Rebecca: Welcome back to another interview, soldiers! Today, our interviewee is OneSteelCalf. This lady gamer here has some interesting things to report about the CSP faction! Calf, can you tell us what happened?
OneSteelCalf: Sure. I created a new character after reading up on the CSP faction. I thought it was really cool - besides the whole, you know, xenophobia thing.
Major_Rebecca: Right, right.
OneSteelCalf: So, um, they’re normally dark-skinned people from living in hot regions and stuff. So I turned Sheba - that’s the name of my character - a kind of lime green skin tone with burnt sienna hair. I gave her a little ‘fro because why not?
Major_Rebecca: Haha! So, what happened when you spawned in the starter town?
OneSteelCalf: Well, I spawned in Jaharton which, in hindsight, is never a good place to start even if you look like a normal CSP Human.
Major_Rebecca: How come?
OneSteelCalf: There’s [Paladins] everywhere. One thing I learned about the CSP is that they’re really big on the Conquest celestial. While they worship all three, it’s clear that Conquest is the favored god of the trinity, especially in Jaharton. They’re ruled by an oligarchy of powerful [Warlords] that put physical and spiritual strength before everything. Sheba was just a defenseless [Alchemist] in a town full of cutthroat zealots.
Major_Rebecca: That sounds awful!
OneSteelCalf: The struggle was real.
Major_Rebecca: How long did it take for the...hostilities to start?
OneSteelCalf: About five minutes.
Major_Rebecca: That fast?
OneSteelCalf: Sheba’s a lime green-skinned character, after all.
Major_Rebecca: I didn’t think skin color would matter in a world of various fantasy species. I guess some hate never dies…
OneSteelCalf: You got that right.
Major_Rebecca: What was your experience?
OneSteelCalf: I was trying to complete my first starter quest - buying ingredients from an NPC shop. I had to make a Lesser Health Potion. I was headed to the shop, just minding my own business, when an NPC child chucked a Sour Berry at the back of Sheba’s head. I took 5 damage alone from that since I hardly put any points into Body. I got some dirty looks all the way to the shop and when I finally got there, the shopkeeper took one look at me and told me to get lost. I left the shop and was immediately attacked by a mob of low-leveled [Paladin] NPCs. It took me about a minute to die. The sounds Sheba made as she was being hacked apart...

Major_Rebecca: That’s...awful.
OneSteelCalf: Yeah...I’ve been taking a break from R&C ever since then. Just trying to, uh, let all that negativity pass.
Major_Rebecca: I see. Will you ever try playing as Sheba again?
OneSteelCalf: Probably not. I’ve had enough of the CSP faction for now.
Major_Rebecca: Well, I hope you have better luck next time with a new character.
OneSteelCalf: Me too.
Major_Rebecca: Um, that’s all we have time for today. Thanks for coming on, Calf.
OneSteelCalf: No problem.
Major_Rebecca: This is Major, signing off!
...
OneSteelCalf: Is that, like, a catchphrase you guys have?
Major_Rebecca: Yeah. Why?
OneSteelCalf: It’s kinda cringe, not gonna lie.
Major_Rebecca: Yes, well, I’m trying my hardest to-Jacobi, why is the camera still rolling?

I always dreamed of being one of the Awakened, one of the heroes that fights back the Insanity on his own terms. They’re always pictured driving the newest cars, wearing the latest clothes, using the best gene-mods and implants. They’re supposed to be more than just human. At least, that’s what I thought until I Awakened. Now my life is a mess of corporate intrigue, shifty politics, cyberzombies and at least one group of revolutionaries whose ideas are sounding better every day. I never wanted to be the punk that brought the system down, but the temptation to just glitch out is growing by the minute. Glitch is a Cyberpunk LitRPG set in a near future where some people are given abilities that allow them to do things that no normal human could ever do.

Thank you in advance, and I hope you like it! The Wilderlands are said to contain many dangers. On most maps the area remains blank and only the bravest of travelers will venture beneath its canopy. For monsters roam these woods, which made it the perfect place for a legendary swordmaster to disappear from the world for a time and raise a child.

You have been warned...

The Dog with a Chair
As of now, this story is dropped. It was an excellent learning experience, but the quality suffered too much from me trying new things for me to continue in good concience. Thanks to anyone that read it. I'm leaving this story up as a record of my first ever attempt at publishing something I've wrote. To any new writers out there, remember that even if the stuff you write is trash, you can still learn a lot from writing it. - November 17th 2020 Guy gets involved in advocacy for civil engineering projects, then gets pulled into an interdimensional war. Third person with a focus on one main character (Stanley) with the occasional point of view from another character important to story progression. Writing style tends to shift early on as I figure out how to write (this is my first book). Still learning, hoping to improve. Current style choice is to have a focus on character dialogue/actions with interspersed internal monologue in italics. No current end is set for the story, with the primary goal of this project being to learn to express myself in a written format. Storyline is kept as consistent as practical while covering things I find interesting. Governmental systems are mentioned, but not explained in extreme detail. Sci fi elements are used to reinforce and guide plot progression as I'm able. Personal goals belonging to each character are in the process of being developed, with the hope that they will support or oppose each other in interesting ways later on. Hope you enjoy :)
