Issei stared at the blue screen in front of him, worried; he was not freaking out nor was bouncing around in excitement, this was not good not good at all. Still “O—Okay” he vocalised, a new screen popped up ‘Would like a tutorial’ “OH thank God” Issei sighed in relief, “Yes” he said.

(Info Dump time)

Welcome to the Gamer God [Blank] Tutorial, this will provide you with the essentials to move forward with your story/life. “Oh great the U.I has a sense of Humour joy” Issei grumbled in annoyance nobody likes a smartass. As you have already worked out a verbal command can change the screen though physical actions work as well (But we don’t want you looking weird in public now do we?) Issei grumbled some more Freaking Smartass.

Like an RPG you have a series of Stats; Strength or STR your damage output and cancelation, intelligence or INT your ability to learn and understand things, WIS your [Blank], [Blank] and [Blank], Vitality or VIT how much health you have and how many hit you can take, Stamina or STA how long can you go for, Speed or SPE as in how fast you move, Charisma or CHA which governs how people, mobs and the world interacts with you & final Luck or LUC the drop, encounter and random event rate.

Stats can be raised through levelling up which is slow but allows you more time to understand your limits or through training while faster means you need more time to figure out how to hold back we don’t want to harm someone without meaning to after. Issei nodded as he read the last part not only would that suck he would also need to run as someone would call the cops and things like that never end well.

You also have Skills; these can be created through actions or bought form the store. The store is an ‘App’ on your phone that will allow you to acquire more skills and items (we are assholes not bastards) “Freaking Smartass U.I” Issei grumbled, like all adventurers. To level up your skills you must use them again and again though bright side you will never worry about atrophy or skill degrade now.

Quests are mostly the same as in a game, however there will be Quest you can’t deny and they will result in Your Death if you fail them so be on the lookout we are not joking with you. Issei gulped, that was not a fun thought.

As with all RPG’s there are Dungeons however you are not omnipotent meaning no respawning enemies, so ‘Gamer God’ will scan enemies you kill and Dungeons you clear and make a copy in the “Dungeon Rush Mode” a way for you to grind and farm (Cause everyone loves that aspect of RPG’s) A grunt escaped Issei at that thought though he was not surprised still “Freaking Smartass U.I” Issei grumbled one more, this Mode has two primary features “Singular Dungeon Rush” which will allow you to replay a Dungeon between 3-10 times and with a minimum pre-set level of 5 for non-boss enemies and 7 for bosses and a maximum pre-set level of 10 for non-boss enemies and 12 for bosses with each time you clear a Dungeon it will reset but with a 2 level increase for all enemies.

The other feature is “Clear X Dungeon Mode” this is where you can fight Dungeons in any order you want meaning that you can help weaker party members level up while you grind you’re own skills. Unlike the other mode you cannot control the level only the amount you need to clear which is the same as before, though items drop rates or higher in this for incentive. Issei sighed at least there was that.

You probably notice you do not have MP or Mana Points yet, this is because you do not currently have magic at your disposal “Makes Sense” Issei said, why would he suddenly gain magic when he hadn’t learned it yet, when you gain the ability to use magic it will appear, in the meantime your AP or Action points will allows you to preform skills as a general rule most physical skills need AP to work.

Lastly you can level up through fighting and completing Quests but not through mastering skills or training stats, this means if you wanted to you could be Lvl: 1 but have a hundreds across your stats as you are no longer bound by human limitation. For each level all your stats are raised by one plus whatever stat buffs you have form skills or items.

Would you like to view your status? A blue screen filled his vision with a yes and no buttons available, “well that’s a no brainer” Issei said as he clicked yes, and was shocked by what he saw;

{Issei Hyoudou Lvl: 3 – The Gamer}
Stats:
HP = (10/10) 350/350
STP = (10/10) 350/350
AP = (10/10) 200/200
STR – 20
INT – 25
WIS – 20
VIT – 35
END – 35
SPE – 20
DEX – 20
LUC – ? (Must unlock [Blank] to see this Stat)
CHA – ? (Must unlock [Blank] to see this Stat)

Issei Hyoudou was a small child when he discovered his love for gaming, and later using it as a coping mechanism for accidently breaking his father’s favourite fishing pole when he was 7, his love for gaming quickly grew out of control.

Fast forward to when he as 8 and overweight Issei dealt with a bullying problem leading him to connect a treadmill to his consoles and PC, this practise evolved into a mild work out routine in his early teens that he maintains to this day.

However a dormant power sleeps within him making him a target for [Blank] as there are many would seek his power to use for their own purposes.

Skills:

Gamer Mind – Lvl: Max – Issei Hyoudou is the ’Gamer God [Blank] ’ wielder this means his mind is always calm as most RPG protagonists tend to be calm and rational. This is a passive skill that allows Issei to stay in control when in traumatic and horrifying experiences (you will get these and we will do our best to help you with them) as well as plan and execute incredible strategies. Though this only applies to the video game scenarios.

Gamer Body – Lvl: Max – Issei Hyoudou is the ’Gamer God [Blank]’ wielder this means his body no longer limited human limits due to the fact the video game protagonists can often break and bend substances they shouldn’t be able to as well as hit and cause damage to beings like ‘Dragons’.

Parkour – Lvl: 5 – Issei Hyoudou is by no means a master of Parkour but picked it up during his training, and as such is somewhat able to use it. EXP = 300, Amount to Next Lvl = 300
Basic Fighting – Lvl: 1 – Issei Hyoudou like all boys has been in a fight a few times, though he was not a violent child by any means nor was he a good fighter. EXP = 100, Amount to Next Lvl = 50

Home Keeping – Lvl: 20 – Issei Hyoudou often helps around his home, setting the table, taking out the trash and cleaning up this has given him plenty of experience in this skill. Lvl: 20 EXP = 35300, Amount to Next Lvl = 14700

Cooking – Lvl: 20 – Issei Hyoudou has dishes he has made multiple times for himself and his former best friend Irina, as he sometime dose this cooking for his parents this has given him plenty of experience in this skill.
Lvl: 20 EXP = 35300, Amount to Next Lvl = 14700

With his eye twitching at the fighting skill, Issei took notice of his two passive skills “Huh, guess that explains why I haven’t gone broken down or stated bouncing off the walls yet” he was calm as he spoke. “Still people don’t just wake up with shit like this happening to them so why did I gain this power, is… is it because of the dormant power thing?” he asked aloud.

You have correctly deduced the reason why you have the Gamer God [Blank] INT and WIS rise by one point.

Absently looking at that Issei wondered if this ’Gamer God [Blank]’ was going to get him in trouble or not.

You have correctly deduced that because of this power there will be both positive and negative repercussions INT and WIS rise by one point.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

After calming down after that outburst Issei noticed the brackets around his health, action and stamina points “wait does that mean my VIT & END stats multiple my base health and Stamina?”

You have correctly deduced that VIT and END multiple base health and Stamina, INT and WIS rise by one point.

That made sense but why was his action- WIS, WIS GOVERNED ACTION POINTS.

You have correctly deduced that WIS multiple base AP, INT and WIS rise by one point.

“it said skill were created through actions, so {SCAN}” Issei spoke concentrating on the nearby chair, Through a Special Action you have Created the Skill {Scan} this allows you to see the health/Durability, Level and status of a person or item. {Scan} Lvl = 1, by using {Scan} you raised your INT and WIS by one point.

Checking his new stats he saw that not only did his INT was now 30 his WIS was not 25 and as such his AP was now 200/250.
________________________________________
it had been two weeks since this power had awakened, he had done a few mundane quests, in the meantime; simple things like fetch and escort quests (the latter of which didn’t even have enemies) he had levelled up 2 meaning he was now level 5 instead or 3 but his stats were far more impressive than his level implies. His current Status was:

{Issei Hyoudou Lvl: 5 – The Gamer}
Stats:
HP = (10/10) 450/450
STP = (10/10) 450/450
AP = (10/10) 400/400
STR – 30
INT – 40
WIS – 40
VIT – 45
END – 45
SPE – 30
DEX – 30
LUC – ? (Must unlock [Blank] to see this Stat)
CHA – ? (Must unlock [Blank] to see this Stat)

His summary had not changed yet, which made sense he hasn’t done something or note to change it yet. His skills had also grown;

Cooking Skills – Lvl: 30

Home Keeping Skills – Lvl: 30

Martial Arts Skills – Lvl: 10 – after studding a book on fighting, Issei Hyoudou was able to learn some Martial arts, though he has no actual combat experience with his daily training he has gotten this skill to level 10 meaning any street thug is not going to stand a chance.
• Knee Dash – 5AP
• Power Straight – 5AP
• Curb Stomp – 10AP
• Rising Upper – 10AP
• Dragon Strike – 15AP

Parkour Skills – Lvl: 10
• Wall Jump– 5AP
• Sprint– 5AP
• Scale – 10AP
• Summer sault – 10AP
• Backflip – 15AP

Scan – Lvl: MAX – when Issei first received this power he ‘scanned’ a chair near his bed allowing the creation of this skill, this allows him to view the health/Durability, Level and status of a person or item.

Observe Skills – Lvl: 40 – after scanning many people and objects Issei unlocked {Observe} a deeper and more powerful scan allowing Issei to see the health/Durability, Level, status, stats and remaining Points (Stamina, Action & Mana so on so forth) of a person or item.

Sneak Skills – Lvl: 10 – after sneaking out of his home to practise Parkour Issei developed the {Sneak} skill allowing him to remain undetected.
• Shadow Blend – 15AP
• Quite Step – 15AP
• Quite Land – 10AP
• Quite Takedown – 10AP
• Low-Light Awareness – 15AP

Checking his inventory, he had lesser; AP, HP & Stamina Potions (X20), Ring of Loot Drop boost, Ring of Crit Boost and Neckless of Stat Boost. He also had standard; AP, HP & Stamina Potions (X10) and Bronze Armour. He finally felt confident enough to tackle his first dungeon.
________________________________________
So here is my attempt at a Gamer Issei story, I've tried to create a reason as two why Issei arriving at Kuoh academy will be a bit different as well as try give a reason as to why he will be a lot stronger.

Anyway since this is Highschool DxD it has a Harem, Current list is: Rias, Asia, Akeno, Xenovia, Koneko, Rossweisse, Kuroka & Ravel I won't be adding characters like Grayfia as she is happily married nor will I add Irina she annoys me but I will create an in-universe reason as to why he won't be attracted to her.

Constructive criticism is welcome and flames will be ignored.
