At sixteen Razavan wasn't sure what he wanted to do in life, but selling himself into service to keep from dying was definitely nowhere on the list. Oh well. So much for that plan. Now, years later, he is dedicated to Lord Vennir, Patron Power of Wit, as a Dusk Knight, champion of all who call on his lord for aid, which mostly involves dealing with counterfeiting, contract disputes, embezzling, goods retrieval, death threats, and the occasional high risk repossession. Vennir is also the Patron of merchants, playwrights, comedians, and really clever thieves, after all. To make matters worse, he didn't even manage to steer his class into something awesome like mage or warrior. No, far from it. Who's going to be afraid of a dancer? And now they've assigned him a Frigidi as a partner, a woman from the race of demons famous the world over for how uptight they are. He can’t even figure out what name to call her. At least the bard might make things fun. What to expect:  This story is a shot from the hip into a fantasy-flavored LitRPG world that I’ve been working on for two or three years now. This isn’t the first thing I’ve written in this world, but it’s the first thing I’m releasing, and it’s coming in live. I have a decent idea where it’s going, but I’m not sure how I’m getting there, which matches pretty well with Razavan and his approach to life. Update schedule is whenever I can, as this story is fighting with paying bills, children, and sanity for my attention. Takara, the City of Cats, is a vast trade city populated with cat folk and a whole ton of other races. It exists as a fairly stable early-industrial economy with a mix of tech and magitech powering things. The world of Agona where Takara is located is fundamentally governed by science with the System overlaid on top of it. Magic enhances or alters reality in predictable ways, but does not supplant it. There ARE numbers and pretty complex character sheets, but they will not be popping up often. The writing style is character focused, primarily focused on Razavan, who is a character. The plot isn’t going to be as important as the people, though sometimes important events will take hold. The main goal is fun, with the primary means for achieving that being to throw Razavan into situations he’d rather not be in. There will be romance. Razavan doesn’t get a vote in this. There are harems as a cultural element, treated realistically. Razavan has no interest in them, and doesn’t get one. Razavan’s primary focus in life will be on surviving his job, however, so don’t worry. There will be plenty of bloody excitement.  Razavan is not OP. He WILL get stronger, but Agona is a @(#&$ world where leveling is hard. Expect him to solve problems like a Paladin of the God of Wit should: by out-thinking, out-dodging, and out-talking them. Okay. Time for warnings. May contain: Any of the horrible things that are conceivably possible in life. I aim for PG-13 on the visualization level, generally with fade to black on sexual things (NO graphic sex), and possibly R-rated gore if a scene needs to get serious. Takara is not a nice place, and it’s fairly polite as far as all of Agona goes. I write dark things because I like to put them next to extremely light things. Heroic things. Think nobledark.  That said, I’m pretty sure the MC I’ve picked is going to keep things fairly lighthearted.   Soli Deo gloria.
