A nerfed Dingir in Final Fantasy 9, seriously?

Early concept (updated 11.04.2020)

The author (Mark) who created Dingir, (based upon himself) is thrown into the real life world of final fantasy 9 by one of the game's creators, who is actually a god who bases games upon real worlds he oversees. Mark isn't the first to be thrown into that world as outside forces seek to change the events that exist within the game. But they have failed. It is Mark's turn now, dropped in without warning and nerfed as level 1 despite being strong in real life, he must now survive the monster and villain filled world of Gaia and see the game through to the end. However Mark's story begins two years before the events of the game. Set in Alexandria, he joins the Pluto Knights for work due to money issues and the scarcity of monsters, while waiting for the day the Princess escapes/kidnapped and the game to save the world begins.

However the world is not a kind place, can he survive until the very end?

Rated M for death, torture, and casual romance.
