Beak hounds – The general umbrella term to encompass all types of domesticated bird-hounds on Delmathar. The equivalent of dogs in the magical world and a lesser cousins of demi-Griffs that have been widely and successfully domesticated and the favourite companions of Tamers and Hunter professions. They easily range in natural levels in maturity from bronze all the way to Adamant without training depending on the breed and stock. They all share the common triats of having a beak, four legs and laying eggs.
Sparrow terrier – a breed of Beak hound that is diminutive in stature and naturally peaks at Silver rank when matured. They redeeming feature of this breed is that when in a pack with other Beakhounds the Sparrow terrier is able to buff their packmates with higher Perception stats, otherwise outside of working Beak-hounds they are kept because of how cute and small the breed is in general. The breed normally sports black and brown colouration.
Crow-Wolf – A higher tiered and rare breed of beak hound with the denotation of wolf, without being a true raptorial Beak-Hound breed due to the Corvian subspecies of Beak-hounds having a unnaturally high intelligence stats and commonly having medium to large statures. Crow wolves are naturally predatory and on the higher end of medium Beak-hounds and always in different shades of near-blackness.
Delmar- The local term used instead of earth. Ie, as in dirt.

Nettle-crickets – an endemic species in all local ecologies that contains grasslands and vegetative life. Small tiny insectile beasts that are in the shape of spiny grasshoppers with eight legs instead of the usual six with a range of green and brown colouration to fit into the local environs. In direct competition with Rottwood worms and also not even considered tin ranked. Considered a Beast categorically due to having low stats and the ability to passively envenom its shell with spell of Minor Itching, studies have shown that if they are drained of mana then the Minor itching spell will not be present even if it is stated as a passive spell for some unknown reason. A species that is also able to develop into a nomadic swarm and devastate local vegetation if there is no local predators present. When in the swarming state the Nettle crickets will develop wings and a unbelievably small subset of a few individuals within the whole swarm will develop a cannibalistic appetite and evolve into the slightly larger bronze ranked Butcher Nettle-Bug that is always female self-regulates the swarm and eventually will destroy it from within. Upon death the Butcher bug uncharacteristically explosively release floating pollen-like eggs unlike the normal Nettle Crickets that lay their eggs in shallow hole with their overpositors. Butcher Nettle-bugs always lay eggs that hatch as normal nettle-crickets which has lead many to theorize that the creatures have been created by the Wilder-Queen to prevent overgrowth of plant types.
Manlybird bug – a rarely seen bug monster that can grow up to the size of a fist when fully matured. The namesake comes from the fact that that circular shelled adults have a uncharacteristically muscular exoskeletal structure underneath that is reminisce of humanoid species. The larval state of Manlybird bug is a worm-like grub that is also highly muscular and carnivorous just as the adults are. The species tends to hunt in the lower underbrush with the adults seldom flying about and preferring the stand on their two hind legs and posture with highly developed muscles to deter predators and breeding competitors. Female Manlybird bugs have also been readily observed to participate in flexing competitions with their suitors and forgoing the breeding process altogether in favour of flexing competition. This abnormal musculature showmanship behaviour that is in no correlation to their strength stats is what many scholars believe is the reason that the species is so rare in most viable ecologies. For that they tend to flex instead of fleeing from easily avoidable encounters with larger or higher levelled predator.

Lord Shadow-tongue- Paid the commonly known god’s godhood and common term to refer him to rather than his given name. It is the common term to refer the god too as he is worshiped by spies and the under-races that lives in the labyrinthine subterranean kingdoms of the Under-empires in Delmathar. A God that is majorly worshiped by the Dwarfs, Troggodiths and the Under-Elfains regardless of having the spying profession.
Shield bulwark – a melee orientated tanking class that heavily specialises in heavy armour, passively mitigating damage and retaining aggro. The class is known to rely mostly only on shields due to its heavily defensive specialisation but some individuals sporting weapon and shield combos have been observed. The class has been noted to grant high growths in Vit and End. At MIthril rank the class holder is granted the famous active skill called EverGuard which when activated, can mitigate any form of frontal damage with the use shield by a third.
Pugilist – a melee class that is reliant on unarmed attacks and low armour. A class that is heavily reliant on mobility and dishing out damage with mediocre capability to tank hits. Mainly the growth of the class is focused into becoming a DPS dodge-tank with growths in Per, Str,Dex and Agi but inherent racial growths make this class a liable Dps tanking frontliner. It is famously noted that the Phoenix-King has evolved his classes from originally having a pugilist class.
Gutterswipe – a hybrid class of thief and swordsman that is normally developed by individuals that live in cities. Is famously known for the starting passive skill of Guttermuck whereby the class holder has a small percentage boost to agility and dexterity scores when they are within a city. The class also comes with a minor proficiency in small blades with decent growths in Agi,Dex and Char.
Hebdican skill keen eyes. A racial ability that grants the user double perception stats when it comes to any visual cues perceived by their eyes. The length of time the skill is able to be used and the frequency of uses is dependant on the individual with very talented individuals able to matain the stat up to a few seconds daily.

THIS IS AN OLD 2015 NOVEL AND HAS BEEN DROPPED In a world where fiction becomes reality, the truth lies. In the twenty-third century, privacy has become ancient history to mankind, advertisements had become sentient. Humanity has almost reached its peak, one step closer towards becoming deities. Everyone now lives in a world between reality and fantasy, as corporations gain more knowledge for power, connected by the global cyberscape network surrounding the world. This world order is immediately broken when the perception of time collapses, leading to the inevitable end of this world and to the opening of a new shattered world where the line between truth and lie; reality and fantasy is blurred.
8 216Cheaters Always Win
Chester Everheart knew that life wasn't fair. Some were born in situations where it was almost impossible to succeed, whereas others were born with a silver spoon with everything at their disposal. A scant few were dropped into another world, filled with monsters and magic and forced to fend for themselves. The latter was a rare, somewhat ridiculous trope; but it happened to him anyway. Despite this he followed a motto that applied regardless of the dimension he was in. Playing fair is for suckers, and cheaters always win. Cheaters Always Win is a comedy-adventure that I've had churning in my head for a couple years now. I'd like to think it still has the charm that most LitRPGs have while also being unique in its own way. Every arc of the story will subsequently have a 'Level Complete' chapter that details all the stats, levels, equipment, etc. gained by the main cast of characters.
