All I wanted on my day off was to get some new ink and see the pretty tattoo artist who had been flirting with me during my last few sessions. I definitely didn’t expect to get teleported to an fantasy world filled with berserker zombies, fairies, and shapeshifters that lived in futuristic cities while oppressing the other races. I also didn’t expect my tattoos to come to life. And since most of them are weapons, it seems I am uniquely suited to fight. This world has already had an apocalypse, but maybe it’s time to start a revolution.
