Gates of Seattle
Fifteen years ago, dimensional gates began tearing open across Earth, flooding the world with monsters and awakening humans as Hunters with game-like powers ranked E through S. In Seattle—the Pacific Northwest's gate-dense epicenter—you are E-rank, the weakest of the weak, trapped at the bottom of a system that claims your power is fixed forever, even as the gates multiply and ancient forces stir in the shadows.
