Abyssal Horror

A smart Isekai with a smart protagonist - who just can't stop making everything worse. Half the disasters in this dungeon? Oops. His mistake.

"A wildly complicated ecosystem within an underground dungeon? And I can't just burn it all down - else the world will both figuratively and literally come collapsing down on top of me? I didn't get Isekai'd for this!" - Nameless Abyssal Horror

Think you can navigate this catastrophe? Neither can this formless, hive-mind, reincarnator, sarcastic genius.

This is a dark fantasy-horror story about survival, the extreme lengths a person will go to achieve it, and the terrifying lines they cross when they mistake their own paranoia for necessity.

There are no blank-slate characters. People other than the MC have overpowered abilities AND know how to use them. No gamified story elements. Just him, his clones, and a fragile, complex ecosystem waiting to break at the slightest touch.

Abyssal Horror will be a long form story that seeks to be somewhere in between Made in Abyss and most Isekai. And as hard-science as realistically possible.

I plan to flesh out many different elements that always irritated me about other works and shows. And hopefully entertain a few people while doing so.

Content Note: Features occasional fantasy violence, sci-fi body horror elements, and themes of existential dread.

Feedback appreciated. Enjoy.
