《Rise of the Paragon - A Post-Apocalyptic LitRPG》Foreword
Advertisement

Just a little about myself, I am twenty-four years old, I have a bachelor's degree in Political Science, American Government & Pre-law with a minor in History. I am also planning on a master's in Cybersecurity. I lived on the East Coast in Boston during my late teens and early twenties for three years, inspiring my decision to base the story in the New England area. So why write Genesis though? Because I have a reading addiction. Which apparently has now led to a writing addiction.
Reading LitRPG's has always been a fascination of mind. Among the numerous books, I have read several aspects have always caught my eye in a series, namely world-building, kingdom-building, as well as a strong protagonist and large-scale world. Even further along are my fascinations with what would happen if an RPG system were to become integrated into the real world. While I have read many stories dealing with the concept, I have yet to come across one that had fully achieved the potential I saw in such a story. Most of the time humanity would be extremely debuffed and left without the use of its technology. Perhaps the main advantage that humanity could ever achieve over any sort of Fantasy-oriented foe. Think of anime series such as Gate, where modern society clashes with fantasy ones. What if though, A Demon King, just like the ones many of you have probably seen in countless anime's, succeeded in world domination. Even further, what if that same Demon King was not satisfied with the domination of their own world, but moved to dominate hundreds of others. What if, Earth became that Demon King's next quest for domination?
This formed the basis of Genesis, the first book in my Rise of the Paragon series. My goal seeks to encompass some of the best concepts of a multitude of LitRPG's stories, and animes, to form a grand-scale LitRPG multi-world apocalypse where the battleground has now centered on Earth.

So as such, I can’t thank anybody for choosing to pick up the book enough for their love and support for my work! At first, it was a thought experiment, and then after some time, it became a passion. So for everyone who has been with me all this way, I can’t help but provide a humongous thank you!
Enjoy the book!

Polyrhythm Time -- A Bard's Tail
Have you ever met someone who loves what they do so much that they'll skip sleep, food, love and safety to pursue it? What happens if that kind of person encounters a different dimension, yet holds on to their love of music, and specifically of rock drumming.When the world ended at the end of 2057, Kevin Snackenbridge slept through it. He'd been drumming all night. tl;dr-- System eats world -- Monsters and magic ---- LitRpg -- Practice, not levels and stats ---- MC Bard -- support class -- low power ---- MC chooses music over survival skills --tl;dr Kevin trips into the Internal Strength Dimension where Thaumaturgy is king. With the help of a talking plant and several vicious monkeys he learns that the rule is "Change or die." Kevin changes, but remains firmly a drummer/Bard in this high fantasy setting. This is Kevin's adventure, and that of the friends he meets. Kevin has the soul of a real musician. He loves music, specifically rhythm and drumming, and would give his left nut if it would help him drum better. He's a rock drummer, and his language is that of a rock drummer: slanged, duded, and frequently laced with profanity. He focuses on music, and makes decisions that even the author doesn't approve of. However, that means all his decisions are Kevin's decisions, not those of a system-optimizing power-gamer. There's points (All of Arc 2) where he wanders aimlessly. Goals seem foreign to him at points. What would you do if you were a musician, and the world fell apart and you no longer had an audience or band-mates. You'd be kinda lost. Kevin is. Arc 2 is a lot of Kevin not knowing what to do, going with the flow, and not being articulate enough to know that he doesn't know what to do. 1. Chapters start short near 500 words, and grow to 12-1500 by ch.100 2. Chapters daily
