Skull and Fangs: A Furry Pirate Litrpg

What happens when you take everything away from an NPC? You will leave her with nothing but vengeance.

Lucy Longsilver lives in a virtual world of Skull and Fangs Online as an NPC bartender at the Backwash Tavern. She dreams of becoming a pirate like the players, but the system never allows her to step out of her role. Without warning, a ruthless pirate player attacks her town and leaves no survivors. After losing her home and purpose, the player leaves Lucy with nothing except vengeance. When she mysteriously receives the ability to level up and receive new skills, Lucy realizes she has the power to avenge her town. But to avenge her town, Lucy must build her own crew of pirates and tame a ship. On their adventure, they will hunt the murderhobo player as they fight monsters, loot treasure, and discover unknown places. Being a computer player might be fun, but the stakes are still high.

Author's Note:

[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

I am writing this series for NaNoWriMo this month, up to 55,555. Each chapter will go up between 1,000 to 2,000 words and will be posted each day during the week. There might be multiple chapters posted to keep up with the writing marathon in the afternoon. After this month, I hope to get this novel self-published, maybe next year. If you enjoyed my other furry litrpg, Sword and Claw, you might enjoy this one.

I decided to change the book cover since the other one turned a few people away, So I grew a dog skull and crossbones to match the title instead.

The original title was Skulls and Crossbones, but I changed it to Skull and Fangs because there is going to be a game called Skull and Bones. I don't want anyone to think I stole the title. If you find the original title in the draft, don't be confused.
