<p>[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]</p> <p>It's only a month away from high school graduation and Elias Newton's eighteenth birthday. Yet, Eli's whole world is rocked to its foundation when everyone on the planet above the age of fifteen is granted one or more powers from the enigmatic System. Each power seems to be handpicked to fit their new wielders fondest memories... or their greatest fears.</p> <p>Sounds great when your first power is Teleportation, but things take a drastic turn now that everyone has the power to do what they wish for better or worse.</p> <p>*LitRPG system with powers, unique stats, power crafting, merging, evolution, and more.</p> <p>**Coming of age with a fair amount of action and character conflict scenes due to the natural upheaval of events. There is a focus on the MC's interpersonal life as he struggles with events both pre-System and after alongside his family. It starts at a low and gets grimmer before it gets better. There will be bright spots, but most of book one will continue to be fairly dark as it progresses. Book Two will be lighter as he grows and changes. This is a story focused on character arcs, both past and present as events unfold and characters are given the power to grow or regress.</p> <p>***The government makes a lot of bad decisions rapidly at the beginning to try and preserve the past without realizing it's dead on arrival with the Initialization. It takes time for things to get better even as they continue to worsen in other ways. Especially in book one which takes place across the span of only about three weeks.</p> <p>With that said the MC is not a murderhobo. These powers and the events are traumatizing and upset his entire life plans. It takes him and everyone else around him time to adjust to the new world order and go from reactive to proactive, but it does/will happen by the end of the first book. They don't make the best meta decisions when it comes to the System and these powers and it will take time for there to even be a meta.</p> <p>Release schedule is on a two to three times a week basis.</p> <p>As of now Patreon is a week ahead, but will hopefully grow to be two weeks ahead by the time the second book is underway.</p>
