<p> Carey Walsh is guilty of trolling people online to pass the time, alleviate loneliness, and relieve the pain of his best friend's death, for which Carey blames himself. </p> <p> One day, he trolls the wrong person—the son of a billionaire scientist who has built a massive virtual reality game housed on a tropical island. Inside this simulation, known as <em> Luminether Online </em> , the scientist and his son trap bullies like Carey in order to perform highly dangerous experiments on neural plasticity and the brain's empathy regions. </p> <p> Forced into one of the facility's VR pods, Carey soon finds himself in an epic fantasy world inspired by Ancient Greek legends and full of magic, monsters, and myth. Hopelessly lost, armed with only a basic dagger and some leather armor, Carey must level up, overcome his antisocial tendencies and band together with unlikely allies to "win" the game and make it out alive. </p> <p> But there exist other players—desperate, toxic people picked for their history of bullying, also trapped inside <em> Luminether Online </em> —who will do anything to win, even if it means exploiting a software glitch that could fry the living brains of players unlucky enough to become their victims...players like Carey Walsh and his new friends. </p> <p> Can he join an army known as the Forge and fight back? </p> <p> <strong> What can you expect inside the fantasy world of Luminether? </strong> </p> <p> - Demigods </p> <p> - Tons of stats, leveling and progression </p> <p> - Flying horses known as "levathons" </p> <p> - 5 races of humans infused with abilities/traits from the gods, representing strength, agility, spirit, intelligence, and magic </p> <p> - A deep RPG system inspired by classic games like Skyrim, The Witcher 3, Baldur's Gate, and Fallout </p> <p> - An original mythology consisting of vanished, ancient gods and their legendary demigod children </p> <p> - Small villages full of interesting people, as well as huge, sprawling cities full of inns, guilds, armorers, weapon smiths, and everyone's favorite - taverns for sharing gossip </p> <p> - Characters who undergo dynamic and realistic personal transformations </p> <p> - ...while battling one-eyed giants, evil mages and hellish creatures from another dimension </p> <p> - Tons of vivid, cinematic magic spells and acrobatic superabilities </p> <p> - Adult-"ish" content, including profanity, fantasy violence and offensive humor (no sex or sexual scenes) </p> <p> - 500+ pages of everything mentioned above, with a sequel already in the works </p>
