Abyss Descension: I Perform Rituals to Evolve In The Apocalyps

The Great Human Civilization has crumbled apart, falling into the Abyss. A hell with no escape. To survive there, some rules must be followed blindly. 1: Be wary of the dead for they don't rest even in death. 2: Always be on the lookout. Danger lurks everywhere in the Abyss. Nowhere is truly safe. Lastly, if you hear something unusual like a voice that shouldn't be there, do not investigate. Just run. At least then you might get to keep your life. *** Kev's adult life was suddenly upended when he was pulled into a nightmarish world along with countless other humans. To survive he had no choice but to perform a ritual he chanced upon through a series of inexplicable events. The ritual promised great power. He gave in to the temptation, performed the ritual, and stepped into the realm of mysticism. At the same time, he made the worst mistake of his life and put his sanity at risk. Power gained through rituals came with severe drawbacks that could turn a happy go lucky fool into a bloodthirsty monster in a split second and a saint into a devil! By the time he realized it, it was already too late to turn back. {You have performed a Great Ritual} {A pact has been sealed in the depths of the unseen world} Class Obtained: Corpse Collector in the Dark Trait Unlocked: Esoteric Mutation of the Soul Skill Gained: Shadow Manipulation Assimilation Rate: 0% — Collect corpses to grow stronger. — Each increase in Assimilation Rate unlocks new skills.
