Renalia's Tale: Monster Huntress

What if on everyone’s birthday, they got a skill card encapsulating their past year? And what if it was [Resist Hunger] seven years in a row? Renalia had dreamt of gaining new abilities and lifting her parents out of poverty with her new Deck. But none of her skill cards help the family peat harvesting business. Her Deck interests others though, as the Baron recruits her into his entourage. In a bigger town, she finds ways to make money, aided by her Deck’s hidden ability to loot skill cards from monsters. The money helps but she has to learn that it does not wipe away all debts nor buy the happiness that she wants. - Slow-burn coming-of-age story with a deck of magical skills. - Slice of slice, occasionally interrupted by either moments of horror or emotional catharsis. - Young and weak protagonist, but proactive and not whiny. - Very light game mechanics with skill cards. No hand management and usage is only tracked when the plot calls for it. - More focus on characterization, rather than the deckbuilding and LitRPG elements. No system messages, stat boxes, experience points, health, stamina, etc.
