Marcus was a rising star in finance, until his boss's petty revenge left him fired, and near broke. The woman he loved was gone. His future was a joke, his life adrift, and with nothing left to lose 

His only way out was Dominion, the world's first true VRMMO, a game that promises to become humanity's second world, where in-game gold translates to real-world wealth. For Marcus, it wasn't a game; it was a desperate last chance to rebuild his life and support his sister.

But on the day of character creation, the system glitched.

While other players were assigned random stats, Marcus was given the impossible: Maxed-Out Base Attributes and a legendary, unchangeable Luck stat of 20.

The system tried to fix him. It failed.

Now, Marcus doesn't play the game. He exploits it. Armed with a broken skill that reveals every secret and a drop rate that makes him instantly rich, he is the statistical anomaly the developers never accounted for.

Marcus pulled up the leaderboards to get a feel for the current landscape.

The level ranking hadn't shifted much. It looked like everyone was putting in the work, but his own level was still holding strong, more than three full levels ahead of the guy in second. Grinding against higher-level monsters deep in Black Rock Spire was definitely paying off.
