Earthen Contenders

Millions of humans are abruptly transported from Earth to a perilous new world, destined to become 'Contenders' in a grand, system-driven game of survival and power. For Thaden, however, his transference goes disastrously awry, ejecting him into a forgotten dungeon with no gear and a seemingly useless support class: Assistant Healer, completely devoid of any offensive capabilities.

Thaden is an ordinary man from Earth, suddenly thrust into extraordinary circumstances. Resourceful and intelligently adaptive, he possesses a quiet determination and a surprising depth of character that drives his relentless pursuit of survival and understanding in a hostile new reality.

Across this fast-paced progression fantasy, Thaden's journey is one of redefining what it means to be 'weak' and cleverly challenging the very rules of his new reality. He must cunningly leverage his unique situation, forge unexpected alliances, and navigate a world teeming with both existential threats and incredible opportunities, all while rapidly evolving his unexpected power from a discarded role. This epic adventure spans dangerous dungeon-diving, strategic system exploitation, and the formation of a loyal found family, all without the distraction of romance.
