What if a sysadmin got isekai’d into a fantasy world—and discovered reality was running on broken legacy code?
I’ve always wondered what would happen if the person transported into a LitRPG world wasn’t a warrior, mage, or chosen hero—but an exhausted systems administrator who immediately recognized that reality itself was running on broken legacy code.
That’s the premise behind *The Debugger*. Ethan Vance is pulled from a server room into Aethelgard, a glitched fantasy world governed by a failing System. His class assignment returns NULL, the System recommends terminating him, and then discovers it doesn’t have permission to do so.
Instead of gaining conventional powers, Ethan learns to inspect corrupted abilities, exploit permission errors, repair broken rules, and uncover who originally built the world.
I’m the author, and I’d be interested to know whether readers here enjoy technical problem-solving protagonists who win through logic rather than raw strength.
