Penance is a relentless descent into madness, mystery, and monsters.
Rod never expected an afterlife, much less one where survival is a numbers game. But when he wakes up in the sewers of Aerlyn -cold, confused, and ankle-deep in something unspeakable- he quickly learns that Penance isn’t just a myth. It’s real. And it’s hungry.
The rules? Unclear. The exit? Uncertain. The company? A snarky, omnipresent system that insists his only way forward is to play along. That means scavenging gear, dodging death, and making sense of a dungeon that twists itself into new horrors every time he blinks. It means fighting creatures that don’t stay dead and solving puzzles he barely has the patience to finish. And worst of all? It means confronting a past he doesn’t even remember.
Rod’s always been quick on his feet -too quick, if you ask anyone who’s ever tried to pin him down. His mind moves fast, a whirlwind of half-formed plans and instinctual leaps, making him as likely to outmaneuver death as he is to stumble headfirst into it. But in a place where trial and error is the only way forward, sometimes a restless mind is exactly what it takes to break the game.
