DARK BEGINNINGS, BLOODY TURNING POINTS

ROLL OVER AND DIE follows Flum, a girl marked as useless by a divine prophecy and thrown into the hero’s party despite having zero combat stats. Her only ability is "Reversal", a mysterious power even she doesn't understand.

Bullied by her companions, sold into slavery by a corrupt mage, and eventually thrown to monsters for sport, Flum is given a horrifying choice: surrender or wield a cursed blade that will surely kill her.

She chooses the sword.

That decision marks the beginning of a new life, one where the weak fight back and the rules are rewritten.
