Description: [edit] [history]

The Forgotten Man covers the digital life of James Cartwright, a coma patient for 20 years, who is digitised by a mysterious company looking to capitalise on untapped digital resources in the online game Platinum Online. (This is a GameLit/LitRPG story)

Jim will work with the company's AI, 'System' to overcome the grief he feels at his own death and being forgotten by the people he knew, and use the resources he develops in-game to pay for his continued existence while System finds a way to break him out.

The plot has an overarching metanarrative of Jim finding a way to escape the digital world and reunite with his daughter. Jim will attempt to fulfill this narrative by converting in-game resources into real-world money and influence.

This GameLit/LitRPG novel is inspired by games such as Heroes of Might and Magic, Eador, and the RPG and economic systems of various MMORPGs. The story will take a few chapters to get into the action, but you can look forward to small group combat that increases in size to small army combat as the narrative progresses.
