《Dungeon's Ascension》Announcement - The future of this story and other fun topics (Preemptive Q&A)

Where I want to go and why it is not like that right now
In the beginning there will be chapters of dungeon building. That is unavoidable, but I try to mix it up as best as I can. In the beginning I will write how the dungeon is created in relative detail and then I will go to an invader POV. Later on I plan on more invader POVs or dungeon inhabitant POVs to get to know the dungeon in detail while the general structure will be explained from the MC's point of view. I also plan on focusing on the outside world for quite a bit of the first book, as the main players of the nearby sect and the general surroundings of the dungeon will get introduced.
The dungeon building will always be part of the story, but since it is happening mostly natural in this story as opposed to the dungeon placing all his new toys on each new floor, it will be not as extensive as in other stories. Another point is, that the cultivation of the dungeon really slows down as he gets more powerful and I want to fill the time gaps with something different then: 'After training for 50 years', so I'll have to come up with interesting and engaging stories.
Your writing is shit!
Well thank you for your insightful analysis dear reader.
On a slightly more serious note, this is my first time writing a real story. Even in my mother tongue, german, I haven't done so and this naturally means that this is a learning process.
If you want to help then please point out any weird sentence structure or grammar that you can spot.
I also tried using <> for important terms to highlight them. Is that helpful or just annoying?

Will there be many POVs?
Yes. If you have a problem with that I'm sorry, because this story will never be one for you. Better to quit now then to torture yourself. I will say though, that I plan to keep certain characters for frequent POVs while others might only get 1-2 chapters. So at this time the plan is for characters to have many chapters or next to none and not many characters that get 5 chapters and then disappear. There might be some but it won't be frequent.
Will you take reader input for the story or is it already fixed?
If you have any new races or plot ideas you'd like me to introduce just post them. I have a general idea where the story will end up going but most things are not yet fixed and I'm grateful for any input.
Will you rewrite everything after a few chapters?
No. I don't plan on rewriting everything. I'm sure there will be changes as I come up with better ways to introduce story elements or badly worded things. I will make a change log post after this where every major change will be catalogued so you don't have to reread any part of the story.
I have a question! *raises hand*
Ask away and I might answer.
I drew something for you
Send it my way and i'll be sure to feature it somewhere.
I require your update schedule
Since my chapters are fairly long and I'm not the fastest writer around I promise one chapter per week. Everything else is an extra.

Black Core Summoner
He remembered that it hurt. Gaining power hurt. No one ever warns you about the pain that comes before or after. The blinding torture that racked his body for centuries was nothing compared to losing — well ... everyone. He supposed he should have known things wouldn’t work out in the end — things rarely do for Gods.

If slay or subdue 1000 mark bearers, you shall become a successor of mine. This is not a destiny you can escape, so fight in the name of my glory!” At this moment the memories belonging to this body merged with his own.

A thousand of the survivors are sent to Raylia. A planet that is on the outskirts of the system, as The System was trying to send as many survivors to as many planets as possible. Thoren flies headlong into action...literally. What equates to skipping the tutorial, Thoren finds himself stuck in a level 50 instanced dungeon. no food no water no weapon only the company of an imp. "I'm Screwed" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This story uses the system derived by Puddles4263 in Randidly Ghosthound. I've incorporates the Path's system into the leveling of this story. Some of the beginning paths will be similar or the same as I thought that the starting paths were very logical on how a system should start. The stories will be completely different as the characters and story arcs will be completely different. Again, thank you Puddles for allowing me to use your system, really appreciate it! I also wanted to thank ProFound Magician. Has a lot of insight into a story development and as his system is based on Ghosthound, I saw a some beginning stage skills that should be thought of in a character just starting out. If you haven't yet read Ghosthound or Genesis System you're in for a real treat when you do! Thank you both I hope my use is seen as an homage in the beginning. Hopefully my story can live up to the system.
