He got dumped. Then he accidentally dumped everything else. Now he's trapped in another world with a party that never wanted him and without any skills. But on the plus side, it appears he's immortal. On the worst night of a breakup spiral, QA tester Dante Lucero ducks into Wargames West to buy a sourcebook he doesn’t understand for a tabletop game he’s played... and after crushing on the pretty blonde clerk bluffs his way into a seemingly special after-hours LARP for over a dozen adventurers run by a guy with perfect cheekbones and main-character energy. Then the LARPers open a real portal. Not a VFX trick. Not an ARG. A genuine, sulfur-smelling, rules-bound doorway into the tabletop world they’ve been playing for three years — a world secretly built from encoded rules in the sourcebooks, charged with XP, and meant only for high-level characters. Everyone else crosses over with glowing armor, upgraded costumes, and full character sheets. But Dante doesn't have a character sheet. He crosses over with: 🙅♂️ zero stats 🧝 a cheap costume that didn't upgrade like everyone else's 📕 an $85 enchanted and unreadable sourcebook with a terrible attitude 🐈 the fat orange shop cat (he's missing) To the party’s preening paladin-leader, Lucien, Dante isn’t a guest — he’s a bug that’s already bricked their first dungeon reward. To Azure, the blonde bard who invited him, he’s a good-hearted accident she can’t quite be mad at. To the good-natured himbo Elric the barbarian, he’s a perfectly reusable damage sponge. And to the talking grimoire in his bag, he’s “an extremely stupid edge case.” Now Dante finds himself trapped in a world that was built on stats and rules - and Dante has none. He can't run. He can't fight. He can't even die. What he can do is find enough glitches and gaps in the rules to survive long enough to get a character sheet of his own - but only after he's discovered this magical world isn't what he or the rest of his new companions thought it was... and the only way out might mean dumping more than a few stats of their own. Welcome to the world’s first gLITchRPG. Expect: comedic LitRPG with plenty of action, talking magic items, rules-made-physical, XP-as-thread progression, side quests that hurt, loot-box satire, found-family dynamics, and a sheetless MC who can’t die but can absolutely feel pain.
