About this story

A new VRMMO taking the world by storm. A conspiracy at the highest levels of government. A legacy that was never meant to be revealed. [New Player Detected] Welcome, Traveler, to Eternus Online! Darian King throws himself into Eternus Online, the cutting-edge new action fantasy VRMMORPG of 2099, expecting an immersive adventure, some casual goblin shanking, and the odd dungeon dive with his friends. If he plunders some Really Big Chests in the process, that’s just a happy bonus. Instead, his expectations implode before he makes it past the tutorial. The System is disturbingly well-informed, the world seems truly alive, and he appears to have triggered a hidden quest that has dire ramifications for his future. Dark and ancient Powers, warring factions, economic crises, scheming aristocrats, and civil unrest are only a few of the issues he must deal with—all while keeping his only companion from trying to murder everyone that so much as looks at him funny. Among all of this he must find his place in the living, breathing reality of Eternus Online and come to terms with a confronting and unavoidable truth: Darian might just be the Villain of this story. What to Expect: + Slow burn "Average" to "OP" MC + Anti-Hero MC + Politics and Deep Characters + Vampires, Necromancy, Factional Warfare + Kingdom Building and Army Management + Lots of Historical References Update Schedule: 5pm EST Mon/Tue/Wed/Thu/Fri
