Author Description

It's a Battle Royale!Vash Daniels was born without arms or legs, and his family is a dysfunctional mess of outcastes in a post-war corporate-authoritarian society. However, he still loves life and living, and he wins a high-end cortical modem in a contest. With it, he's able to enter the MetaVerse and have fun with his otaku father. But when tragedy strikes and his already precarious life falls apart, Vash must enter a guerrilla battle royale-style eSports tournament known as the Tournament of Titans just to survive. As a first-timer, he must progress through the Noob's Tournament: the lowest tier, but one which still rewards the winning 3-person teams with $10 million, more than enough for Vash to save his family and himself.This won't be easy, for ToT requires all entrants to be level 80-- and he had only started playing a few hours prior. Even worse, he has less than a month to meet the challenge, which will require him to sacrifice all his time and energy during a time when his mother is weakest and the corporate-run state hounds them for every last penny. And even if he achieves this titanic goal, he will face off against players who have spent years practicing to pass the Noob's Tournament, who have mastered the ways of the game and are just as eager to stake their claim to riches.To the world, he says, "Bring it on."As part of an experiment, several passages totaling roughly 4,000 words (out of 112,000 words total) have been generated by OpenAI's text synthesis network, GPT-2, but have been edited for greater unity and clarity with the narrative
