Welcome to Ludus

Henry and Jason, two friends from Seattle with martial-arts training, are abducted to Ludus, a strange world run by the god Dolos. Dolos gives them a vague task and a few magical tools, but no clear path home.

Stranded in a hostile fantasy landscape, the pair learn the rules of Ludus through a mix of survival, dungeon delving, combat, and information from other trapped inhabitants. As they adapt, they gain magical abilities, meet companions, and begin to understand the world’s factions, races, and game-like systems.

Their journey becomes a struggle to stay alive while building power and trying to complete Dolos’s challenge. Along the way they face monsters, violence, social conflict, and complicated relationships, all while inching toward a possible route back to Earth.
