Wood. Stone. Iron. Gold. Crystal.

For the fortunate few born under a Champion's star, these five things are all that's necessary to shape the world to their liking. Capable of constructing buildings out of thin air and leading mighty armies, these blessed beings vie for power and control across the world.

Among their ranks is Aster, but even heavier than the ancient sword he carries is the secret that haunts his every step.

He is not a true [Champion].

If he wants to keep his stolen power, he'll have to gather materials, build synergistic stacks, overcome wandering monsters and ambitious peers on the battlefield, recruit others to his cause, and build a Kingdom worthy of a real [Champion].

Author's Note:

Born Under A Peasant's Star is a Kingdom/Citybuilding LitRPG fantasy adventure that draws inspiration from turn-based strategy gems of the past and modern autobattlers. I think of it as medium crunchy in terms of the LitRPG elements and would rate it PG-13 (mostly for fantasy violence and swearing).
