The Runic Artist
Ellake
Nate is a graffiti artist from Sydney, Australia catapulted into a new world governed by a LitRPG System. Armed with a penknife and a Legendary runic-art Class, he conquers dungeons, discovers runes, and battles rivals — from Helmfirth's Guild traitors to Silver-Ranked tournament foes, through the Etruan Royal University, the Wild Realms, and finally the Heartlands, where he and Kiri must hide their developing Divine Vessels while defying the artifacts-hunting Arikanvil under missions from The System itself.
Progression: System-governed LitRPG advancement fused with runic crafting: the protagonist bears a Legendary runic-art Class, rising through the System's levels, Adventurer ranks (Silver-Ranked tournaments, Guild advancement) and eventually Divine Vessels / Lesser Divines, while mastering rune discovery and crafting (runic art, crafter-vs-crafter conflict, enchantment-style growth). Verified via Royal Road fiction page tags (Progression, LitRPG, Crafting, portal/isekai), Goodreads blurbs referencing System levels, System Challenges, rank tournaments, and the Etruan Royal University magic-academy arc.
