《New Paris [a Modern-day LitRPG]》[Bonus Episode] - Meet the Players

Laura

She is the protagonist of this story, despite not always being the bravest or smartest cookie in the box.
Laura was not originally from this world. Before getting stabbed and dying she’d only read about this world in fantasy novels. Thanks to her meta-knowledge, or rather despite not being born here, she knows a fair bit about the System.
However, her assigned skillset does not allow for a life of adventuring as she doesn’t have any means of properly defending herself (not counting the cursed sword). Thankfully she can respawn upon death, so at least that’s not an issue.
Laura’s true problem isn’t her lack of combat Skills, or the family name attached to her which so far has mostly brought trouble, but rather her unwillingness to connect on a deeper level with those around her.
Etienne

He is the love interest. Laura and him have been flirting with each other almost since their first encounter. He also works at the coffee shop ‘Chez Manon’.
He has electricity-based powers, and that’s about all that Laura knows about him.
He also likely likes cycling, since that’s how he gets to and from work every day, but there’s no knowing for sure in the current economy.
Manon

She is the manager and owner of the coffee shop ‘Chez Manon’.
She is stingy with her money and cuts corners with her business, but has an authoritative presence which prevents anyone from speaking up or against her.
Alex

Alexandra is another employee at the coffee shop. Unlike Etienne and Laura, she only works there part-time.
She is shy and somewhat awkward. The consensus on why that is that she has telepathic powers and can read people’s mind ‘by accident’.
Cain

Of the birth-name Thebes, he is one of the most powerful characters in this world. Although he is still very young, he can easily kill dozens of people. Well, in theory at least. In practice he hasn’t quite figured out how to use several skills at once, or how to efficiently predict the next movement of his opponents.

He has been kept in a secret testing facility for unknown reasons for several years, and has been raised in a cult before that.
Despite all that, he is still somewhat of a blank slate in terms of allegiances and beliefs.
Alan

Acalan “Alan” Michaels is another OP character from the original novel. If he weren’t a pacifist at heart, and if his skills weren’t slowly being taken away from him by the one closest to his heart, he would have been a force to be reckoned with.
None of that explains what he’s doing in Paris though.
Huáng Yǔháng Fú

Or simply Huang, is a young, handsome and somewhat successful, accountant at a Chinese firm. He would have lived and died as an average man if not for his unique class and even more unique ambition to achieve immortality.
Good thing he has yet to realise the true power of knowing exactly what every single skill does; or the fact that he is the main character of a certian collection of novels.
Theodgar Müller

A German man with a penchant for art and a distaste for European politics.
He has, somewhat accidentally, found himself in a radical cult after the death of his closet friend Nathalie. But, he has left those circles after some recent events which made him regain hope in his and Nathalie’s common dream of world peace.
Nathalie

A skillfull (pun-intended) anti-mage who can, and on many occasions has, deactivate all magic within an area.
After the end of the War, she quietly retired from her job in the military and got married to a French billionaire. Together they had two children, and lived happily for a while.
However, Nathalie did the mistake of travelling by plane in an era where teleportation was not only easy, but also affordable. She and her children paid the price, as the three of them perished when the plane crashed at sea.
Solomon

A man of a single face but many bodies, David Solomon was the one to hold Cain captive, and subsequently pay the price for it.
To this day, a cure to his sadism has yet to be found.

The Book of Hickory
Now why did Hickory go and punch that Angel? Sure it spooked him, popping up right there at lunch, and yet, it wasn't fear that balled his hand into a fist - Cause wouldn't you? Wouldn't anyone - with a sick Ma at home, Da long dead, buried, all them prayers piling up on bruised knees, unanswered? Hickory was angry, all right. He was fierce, now - cause that Angel didn't show up to give no help, that Angel came by asking for it - with all that power just plain to see, the power to fix the world and all that ails it! And now look what poor Hickory has to do - to save the world? Now how is he supposed to do that when its taking near everything he's got - just to keep them chickens safe, Ma fed, and himself out of trouble - All he wanted was maybe just a dance with May, maybe a bit more, to hold her close? That she's sweet, now, a voice like an angel, but now she's over there lookin at him like he's more than a man. And that's not to say Hickory is bad, not all the time, not ever on purpose - just there are things a man has to - That drinking and fighting ain't wrong just as long as the chores are done proper first, that those parts of life that make it worth living ain't no sin, that loving a lady is proper and Hickory just has so much love to give! And May is special, right, sweet and soft, now she's sophisticated. That she wears her passion like a pearl necklace? That certainly Hickory would notice, naturally - that she's already spoken for, perhaps taken? That ever since Hickory came back, that all she can think about is swallowing - those strange feelings, because it wouldn't do, would it? For a Lady? But certainly she can worship him and still be seen with Weston Covanger? Because Weston needs May, that what happens in the Study is only half the battle, the Men's Business, and he's far too proud to settle for half of anything. That if he wants to move up the ranks of his family, to be more than a Covanger, to become the Covanger? He's going to need a woman in the Kitchen as well - he's going to need May. And if that seems a bit old fashioned? A bit too much like the Wild West? Well the West is starting to get wild again now that everyone starts to Drink. A different take on LitRPG where answers aren't given - they must be earned, discovered and fought for, one at a time. An orator style, a long read, filled with magic buildings, crafting, alchemy, but most of all - This is a story about the human spirit. About understanding what defines a person, their morals, their beliefs, and also faith when everything they understand becomes challenged - changed. So do they. People can change. They will. Just not always for the better, not always - sometimes. Sometimes that's enough. Sometimes that's even everything.
