Pactmaker

Abandoned - rewrite coming! Vittorio Merchant has grown up under the control of his demanding, abusive parents. When the time comes for him to see a Class Guide and gain his class they make their expectations clear: Get a mercantile class and come back to start working off the cost of raising you. His friend Gloria begs him to leave them and their town behind with her. When given the chance to gain a strange class Vittorio does just that. He leaves his past behind to try and find his own way in the world - but little does he suspect that his past will come to open his eyes to something wrong with the world. What do you do when faced with foes you can never match and a wrong you cannot right? Sensitive content: Talk and vague descriptions of violent child abuse in the first two chapters. Nothing explicit. What to expect: Male main character who seeks to find himself once out of his abusive home. Medium-hard system without numbers or details but with clear rules and consistency. Clear overarching plot with defined goals. Adventures and exploration in an expansive high-fantasy world.
