Arachnomancer

This LitRPG story follows Sarah on a crazy and hilarious adventure into a new fantasy world, where she learns to swear, kill cute monsters, and fight for her survival. Sarah snuffed it, expired, breathed her last breath-also known as died, if you need it spelled out-in the most unlikely of places...the library. But do not fret! This is perfectly normal. What is not normal, however, is the persistence of one's soul after shuffling off this mortal coil. To break the Cycle is strange and wrong and perverse. It goes against the very nature of existence: lives must eventually be recycled (responsibly). Lucky or unlucky, Sarah finds herself Cycle-broken and very much alive, depending on how strict you wish to be with that definition. Turns out, heaven has a return policy better than Costco. And souls are terribly expensive. So, if Sarah doesn't win some forthcoming contests, she is to be flushed back to the Primordial Sea of Souls, back to the Cycle to eventually be reincarnated as whatever the RNG gods have in store for her. A slug, most likely. Join Sarah on her crazy and hilarious adventure into a new fantasy world, where she learns to swear, kill cute monsters, and fight for her survival. Dying in the library is only the beginning.

Join Dhane, our underdog, as he learns what it means to be an Arachnomancer in his new GameLit series that balances comedy with serious themes. Dhane kicked the bucket in spectacular fashion, every bone crushed, every organ popped against the full force of a 40-ton garbage truck speeding through a red light. The only part of him intact-whole-entirely unaffected by the grisly affair was his soul. Souls are durable things, you see, like kids: they bounce. And bounce he did, into the abyss between worlds, drifting until one excited soul watcher fished him out and found him a new home, a heaven for gamers and nerds and everything in between. It was all he could have ever wanted in the afterlife, down to choosing his class, killing mobs, and exploring a beautiful fantasy world chock full of mysteries yet to be discovered. At least...it would have been those things if that first day had gone a little tiny bit differently. Instead, he now finds himself locked in the middle of an eternal conflict between Light and Shadow, humans and monsters, potentially being the enemy to all. “Wrong Divinity” is the start of a new GameLit series that balances comedy with serious themes. It's an isekai-a portal fantasy-to the spirit realm. Join Dhane, our underdog, as he explores his new world, a world full of unique characters, RPG mechanics, and spiders-ugly, terrifying spiders-while he learns what it means to be an Arachnomancer. Join Dhane, our underdog, as he learns what it means to be an Arachnomancer in his new world.

Join Dhane on another wild adventure as he continues to fight for the Cobalins, meet whacky new friends, and find himself in the most bizarre of situations. Heaven sucks. It most definitely, undeniably did not live up to the expectation of a paradise in the clouds, not with the talking spiders, evil priests of Light, and war, lots of war. Those of Light simply wouldn't leave the fledgling village, Dedu Tedu Novus, alone. Peace was not on the menu. The seven declarations of war made that point crystal clear. Worse, in a series of unfortunate and escalating events, our stray King of Shadows finds himself where he really ought not to be. But maybe... this is a good thing? Probably not. Dhane, Dhane, Dhane... what ever will you do next? Uncover forgotten truths? Form alliances with monsters? Take a stroll in the most dangerous places a Shadow can be? Probably. Join Dhane on another wild adventure.

In a village of lazy, good-for-nothing Cobalins, one manly man, a true studly stud, stands above them all: the great, the powerful, the King of... Knock. (Desley palms her forehead. You no be King of Shadows! Now we have to start over. /Cobalins groan./) The terrible Army of Light knows the secret location of Dedu Tedu Novus. War is here. There's absolutely no avoiding it. Or is there? Naturally, Dhane does the most unthinkable thing: employs an impromptu plan, his favorite type. It's dangerous, it's crazy, and it embarks them on a new adventure where it rains every day and the problems don't stop. Can he save his village? Can he convince Challenger Sarah to help? Or is he only putting off the inevitable, the point where the Changed Reditai turn all those of Shadow into stone for their mysterious plans? Travel to a new zone, see the world, and eat spider tacos. /Octoralis glares./ Or... umm... don't. Don't do that last thing.
