About

In the Eternal Emperor's galaxy, your blessing defines your worth. Pike Albatross got a curse instead. Branded with a mark that makes him a pariah and locked out cultivating his physical stats, Pike has one option left. Get stronger the hard way. Every kilo he carries fuels temporary power. Chains. Axes. Monster corpses. Guilt. The more weight he bears, the more his body can do. The catch? Stop carrying, and it all goes away. Six years on a backwater planet with no memory of who he was before the mark appeared has taught Pike two things: the Empire doesn't care about fair, and sarcasm is a lousy survival strategy but he's committed to it anyway. Now the DAO storms are lifting, the Empire is watching, and the Aspirant's Trials offer the one thing Pike has never had. A way off this rock and a shot at reversing his curse. All he needs is a sponsor willing to bet on a walking crime, the strength to outlast those who've trained their whole lives, and enough stubborn spite to keep standing when the weight should have crushed him. He just has to survive the burden of it all. What to Expect: Weak-to-strong, competent lead.  Unique power progression based on weight. Character driven plot with earned growth.
