Jesper felt a weird twist inside of his stomach as he entered the shop and saw a double door about six feet wide and with a tall billboard on top that said "point tally 100,000 (starting amount of points, please use within first seven days or you will lose these points)" after reading this multiple times jesper felt depressed because to him, there was a billion other humans who got launched into this mayhem and he only got 100,000 points, he recalled that he was placed number 1 based off potential, so his point tally was the lowest.
After a quick mumble cursing this place, jesper walked forwards to open the doors, and apon his touch the door opened automatically and in front of him was a reception desk with a human woman sitting there with a computer, with large glasses, and in-animate as she stared, unmoving at Jesper. Jesper quickly gathered courage as he stepped forwards up to the receptionist, and then she came to life!
She said "welcome to the shop! this place is your species leg up to the other competitors, after one week, a door will appear to your right where you can buy, sell, or trade items with other humans!" Then she froze and stared towards the door once more.
Jesper sat there and thought out loud "is that all?", pondering about the other humans that are here. when his voice sounded aloud she came back to life and stated "please spend your starter points, and since you are our first customer you get 50 percent off one item of your liking in our catalog." then she froze, lifelessly staring towards the door. Jesper confused said, "where is the catalog" and almost instantly, a huge book appeared before him, With the same binding as the one he awoke with. Only exception was, this book was titled plainly as "catalog".

When opened to the first page, there was a section labeled as "recommended" and beneath had an explanation "based off experiences, potential and estimated likes" and the first item on that list was a pill called "elemental wings (genetic mutation) and a quick description stating "forced gene mutation that allows the host to grow and retract a pair of wings that gains an element based off hosts efficacy towards the element along with the element type, notice only one of these may be bought." but the downfall, the price was 200,000 without the store discount and Jesper only had 100,000.
This was something of Jespers dreams. Moments before he was taken he was in Peru, researching avaians. he was on a bird watcher tour, looking at exotic birds and enjoying their beauty and pondering how it would feel to be free of the economic struggles of the world. But while dreaming he came back to reality, staring at the price before he clicked "buy" and he watched his point sum hit rock bottom at zero and a magical pill appear in front of him, then another pill landed down before him.
looking at the two floating pills he touched one, when he came into contact it was like a voice was whispering in his ear because he knew everything about this item and then he heard a voice sound, "purchase finalized". Curious he touches the second and when the parameter appear in his mind, he gets another voice, "elemental awakening pill received", when hearing this the pills disappear and Jesper's mind leaves the shop and in front of him are two white pills, which Jesper fervently swallows...
Jesper awakens as he groans and looks around confused, apparently he had blacked out, then he stands as he hears a "ding, hosts gene mutation is complete along with your elemental awakening, please check status tab". With this Jesper opens his tab

One release per week [Hiatus in November due to NaNoWriMo] [Changed the Summary based on reader feedback. Thanks guys!] When Mitchel gets a birthday gift from his girlfriend Sandra - a pre-order version of the newest VR game, he is thrilled. Real-life graphics, full-body senses, and a mysterious world that nobody knows anything about seem like a great way to escape real-life for a few months or longer. Two days later, his dreams of a pleasant pastime are shattered. After meeting a rude welcome-NPC, getting a weak starting body, and having a near-death experience, he finds himself sleeping on the ground, cold and filthy. Unable to log-out, he now has frightening dreams where the tutorial-AI is walking around in his body plotting Earth's conquest. If that isn't enough, he slowly realizes that the game might not actually be a game but that he could very well be in another world. Can Mitchel find out what is going on and where Sandra is? Can he regain his own body, and would he still want to when all is said and done? [The Story] What this story is: A LitRPG, portal-like, slow-moving story with a protagonist who has to balance crafting and 'magic' to survive. The books have a pre-thought-out plot and finish. Also, the world is harsh, and things don't always go the MC's way. What it is not: A drama, romance, grimdark, although these elements might appear. I've had some feedback that the intro seems to set up a very rough life for the MC. There is a reason for this, and I hope you give it a try beyond the first few chapters. Do note, this is not an unreasonably harsh novel.

The Lurking Lair - An Adventurer Series Short Story
Charlie had never felt comfortable in their own skin. Enduring the taunts and teasing that echoed from their youth had become all too commonplace. Most adults don't think twice about staring at someone who looks different. They may not speak the insults, but they are felt just the same. This book is a prequel to Adventurer, it is independent and stand alone, but it does contain spoilers that will give away world elements of that work. Spoiler: Nextlife offered the ultimate solution to Charlie's problems. Not only were they able to participate in the development of whole new worlds, they could find the perfect one. A world where Charlie could become the ultimate expression of their desires, dreams, and aspirations. After all, a dungeon isn't confined by the constraints of human interpretation. Join Charlie as they dive headfirst into the world of Elysium! Authors Note: I understand that gender discussions are not for everyone. If gender fluid concerns are an issue for you please consider not reading this story as it may upset you. If you can withhold your judgement, it is not a heavy topic of the narrative, but it is the MC's motivation to become what they become. I hope that this note helps folks.
