Runeblade: A Delving & Skill Merging LitRPG (B2 Stubbed, B3 stubbing Nov 3rd NZT)

by Bacon Macleod · Royal Road

Book 1 is available on Amazon/Audible! Paperbacks too! Book 2 is available on Amazon! Audio to follow in a week or two (or maybe three)! Kaius just wanted to unlock his class - instead, he restarted the apocalypse. After years of training, Kaius has barely acquired the first two of his family's legacy skills. Powerful and vanishingly rare, the method of creating them is a secret people would kill for. Now they might be the only thing that keeps him alive. Narrowly surviving a bandit ambush, he gets trapped in the Great Depths- a world spanning dungeon. To escape, he will have to slay one of the Guardians that defend the exits; a feat no one without a class has survived. Ever. If that wasn’t bad enough, if he succeeds he will reignite a forgotten trial that nearly ended civilization. Posting Schedule: 1/day 9:30 am NZT (2:30 pm PST, subject to daylight savings kerfuffles) -My love letter to classic litrpg adventures. The kind with long arcs, gratuitous fights, fast paced progression, and a focus on worldbuilding. -Runic-Tattoo Wizard/Spellblade in a world of sorcerers -Exceptional MC, with some initial Slow Burn elements -Large scope, inspired by epics such as Azarinth Healer, BTDEM, PH, and more. -Third Person POV, with a 99% MC focus -Numbers go brrrr -Attack Badger (Friendly?) -Battle maniac MC who is not a murderhobo -No harem, romance, or VR Hi everyone! After being a RR reader for many, many years, I have decided to throw my hat in the ring. This isn’t the first litRPG i’ve ever written, but it is the first I’ve decided to post. I hope you enjoy and leave plenty of comments and feedback :) Patreon is 50 chapters ahead
