The Founders were the first marked, and they used those powers to build kingdoms, subjugate the land, and enrich themselves. They will not suffer another to join their ranks. Lost in a world with levels, stats, and monsters, Hal fights to survive in an unforgiving land, and to escape execution from its rulers. Ingenuity and courage won't be enough. With marked powers he doesn't understand, he's easy prey for all the goblins, bandits, aberrations, and foul monsters that plague the realm. He'll need to abandon his humanity by embracing the beast within. To fight monsters, one has to risk becoming a monster...if he can survive long enough to level up. Freedom and safety cannot be achieved alone. Only by forging bonds with fellow adventurers and monsters alike do Hal and his would-be kingdom have any chance of surviving the hazardous realm. Beastborne in an isekai litRPG adventure series full of dungeon crawling, spell-slinging action, and deep magic systems.
