Dungeon Life
Khenal
After a fatal run-in with a runaway semitruck, a man is reincarnated in a strange new realm as Thedeim, a small run-down living dungeon. Starting as barely more than a house, he gathers mana, builds his core, spawns scions and minions of every creepy-crawly sort, manages delvers and adventurers, and grows from a lowly hovel into an expanding, legendary force — while rival dungeons, evil entities, guild reps, and the System overseer Order take notice.
Progression: Dungeon-core progression: Thedeim grows by accumulating mana, expanding and upgrading his core, adding floors/rooms (including a hedge maze), spawning and evolving scion/minion tiers (animal, insect and other creature lines), and rising from a low-level dungeon to a regional power. Advancement is explicit and central — each volume marks another level of core growth, territorial expansion, and confrontation with higher-order system entities (rival dungeons such as Neverrest, the Maw, the Harbinger, and Order, overseer of the system).
