Dungeon Crawler Carl: A LitRPG/Gamelit Adventure

Product Information

Carl rips Quan Ch's arm off, after Quan almost gets hundreds of people killed by interfering with their quest toward the end of The Gate of the Feral Gods. Bait-and-Switch: Borant definitely gets concerned about Carl's stated plans to release a feral god on the under-prepared armies of the Skull Empire, but they think can handle it. Donut and Propotente became intelligent crawlers in their own right, both with a spot in the top ten. It Amused Me: The system AI has constraints, but within them, it frequently acts in a way that's clearly just for its own entertainment.

But if the origin point was inside one of the indestructible bubbles on floor 5, then the god is trapped and harmless. Crapsack World: Imagine a darker, more nakedly cynical version of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. As it turns out, she knew about Bea's plans to sell her, and she flies into a rage when Hekla does something similar to Katia. Due to the biscuit and realizing that her life beforehand was nothing but just laying about doing nothing special, Donut was rather rude towards Carl.On the fifth floor, he actually becomes a different subspecies of his native race, the Skyfowl — which he's happy about, but as he's in a form that can only fly short distances, he's also disappointed. Oh, and the repeated "at least one of them" is because there's something hinky about one of Lucia's dogs.

Crime of Self-Defense: Carl lays a trap for two people who tried to murder him without cause, which kills their daughter, who he was unaware even existed. Alien television programs can also (for a fee) pull them out of the Dungeon temporarily for interviews. When the castle is transported to the ninth floor, all the Crawlers and hunters are left behind, along with a pack of velociraptors, falling out of the sky into a bloody free-for-all. The crawl's intended structure starts to break down when Carl prematurely kills off the supply lines for the faction wars (and kills a considerable portion of the armies, too). Killed Off for Real: On some of the floors, Syndicate tourists can enter the Dungeon and safely participate, for a fee.He repeats it on the fifth floor during a specially designed battle that goes beyond the typical scripted boss battles. Donut's Former Child Actor class lets her pick a class to emulate on each new floor, with some limitations. Falling into the dungeon and somehow entering into the Tutorial Room before Carl, she was cleaning herself when Carl pulled out the Enhanced Pet Biscuit. If you are injured, or poisoned, or if you get a hangnail, you will suffer the ill effects and pain of that injury until the moment your prey is killed. This makes the creature descriptions of Krakaren and her minions in the early floors (about how the Krakaren gets stupider as it grows and its minions are all brainwashed idiots) significantly less funny and more uncomfortable, as it becomes less a stupid joke and more blatant propaganda.

Carl's "Surprise Three" is for her to make a hole, drag something through it, and cancel the spell so that the mob is cut in half. And naturally, each floor contains stronger monsters and hazards than the one before, so going straight to the stairwell immediately will leave crawlers underpowered and unprepared for further floors. She was so broken up over losing Carl that she left her vacation early, came back to Seattle, and survived the Collapse. All is not lost; it was a carefully constructed fake, while Katia took the real Gate to the aquatic zone.Gotta Kill Them All: Before descending to the sixth floor, Carl promises to kill every single hunter who participates. After he gets The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook in The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook, he just gets more effective. The third floor struggles with this, clearly in hindsight there were possibilities to distribute solution of the puzzle to more crawlers and make it more like a team effort.
