The Bathrobe Knight

Darwin, a dedicated video game addict, finds his Christmas night shattered by a home invasion, only to then be inexplicably transported into a sword and magic RPG world he’s never encountered. This isn't a game he can simply log out of; it's a harsh new reality where he must fight for his life, armed only with his wits and an unexpected set of circumstances. He quickly learns that adapting to this perilous new existence, alongside newfound companions, is his only path forward.

Darwin begins as a relatable, somewhat lazy gamer, more accustomed to virtual achievements than real-world dangers. He’s an utterly unlikely hero, thrust into a fantastical realm still in his bathrobe and slippers, making his initial struggles both endearing and hilarious.

This Progression Fantasy saga chronicles Darwin's evolution from an unprepared player to a reluctant leader, navigating a dynamic virtual world teeming with political intrigue, desperate refugees, and powerful adversaries. Across the series, themes of found family, responsibility, and overcoming immense odds are woven through a humor-heavy narrative, even as the universe expands to explore the perspectives of other compelling characters and the broader implications of this virtual reality.
