“Fimbulwinter” is the first novel in the “Daniel Black” series and was released in the year 2014. The guy that can debate things from advanced space launch technologies and Napoleonic military tactics? The one that constantly bypasses the GM’s carefully laid out plot complications by doing something both sensible and clever rather than just charging right at the obvious plot hooks? The guy that appears to always be overpowered because he carefully min-maxes his characters and reads every single rulebook? This is Daniel.īrown’s debut novel, called “Fimbulwinter”, was released in the year 2014.
William’s inspiration for Daniel Black comes from some of the more capable players that he has met in tabletop RPGs over the years. Gritty urban fantasy heroines that are the cause of most their own problems, and then bitch at the male love interest that has to save them. Whiny beta-boy ‘heroes’ that allow the girls beat them up, then wonder why the princess doesn’t just appreciate their awesome sensitive wonderfulness. William dislikes clueless idiot heroes that survive plainly on pure luck and the mistakes of the bad guy.
Particularly if they must use their brains and so badass level grinding on the way. He likes heroes that go out and solve their problems rather than sitting around whining all about them. William Brown is just a middle-aged American guy that writes fanfictions for fun after a long day down at the bit mine. If you want to read comics, I think would be right up your alley, both main character and future villain.E. Mistborn ( ) has a fairly strong female lead, but I'm not sure if she quite meets the agency/arrogance/etc. Arachne is introduced pretty early, and might scratch your particular itch. There are a handful of female keepers in Dungeon Keeper Ami ( ) that seem to match what you're looking for. Main foil is an attractive biomancer, high status/dismissive of others, also morally gray.!< >!Main character is unattractive, about 80% on the agency front, has an OP soul-eating necromancy power, and is drifting into distinct moral gray areas as the story progresses. The main character and main foil of match some of what you described. You can read about her at the wiki ( ) with minimal spoilers. You might like, not for the main character but for her roommate. The first few chapters are a little slow, but she's similar to what you're describing on the competent/driven/loves-battle front if not so much on the evil front. You might like The Gods are Bastards ( ) for the main character Trissiny. It's basically pure wish fulfillment with a hyper-competent female lead.
My other strong recommendation would be Perilous Waif ( ). It sounds almost exactly like what you're describing, except for the attractiveness aspect. You should 100% read A Practical Guide to Evil ( ).
