Chapter 100 AMA
So, I just did a little bit of math and realized that, not counting bonus chapters, this last chapter was the 100th chapter of Emrys’s story. I’d like to thank all of you so much for supporting me, reading my crazy ideas, and enjoying my work.I only started writing a few years ago, and when I did, I genuinely didn’t ever expect things to go this far. I’m now on book 2 of a series that people really seem to like. I’m flattered and faintl...
Startup 43a: Linu

Not as strong in a straight fight as the Puppet, but they get their own set of actions and can operate independently for a bit if he feeds them a spell point. Given his style of magic, they will all take the form of shadowy silhouettes.This one will in fact be an actual drow soul plucked from an evil aligned afterlife. Curtis gets a sem...
Startup 40: Sexual Harassment
In which Curtis does squats, as the gods intended, Mih’Tzi has the world’s least satisfying sexual encounter, And Curtis observes his own dick. A bit of a shorter chapter this week, but that just means I can get started on next chapter slightly sooner.

So, what’ll it be, boys?Bleed For Your Master- redirect an attack to a subservient ally, such as a familiar, puppet, summon, or cohort. The target is automatically struck, but you are not. Can be used even after knowing the results of the attack.Anthropomorphic Animal- Transform an innocent animal into a furry for 1 hour per level. Wh...

You Never Saw It Coming
Our boy has managed to get himself one hell of a buff, gestalt into another serious class. ThePhantom Thief, also known as the Gentleman Thief, is an archetype of the Rogue class focused almost exclusively on the use of skills. It does this at the cost of the Rogue’s signature Sneak attack ability, but hey; Emrys is mostly a mage.

Ultimate Sex Perks
Emrys is going for it. He is going to sleep with 100 women in one day (or at least give it his level best). What will he get for it? In the event that the dice do not favor him, he will only get the first part, but he’s reasonably likely to get the 4 perks version of any boon.Mind Blowing Orgasms: after Emrys makes a woman cum, she must make a secret will save or be affected as if by the spell Hypnosis, allowing Emrys to make one request of her...
