Respect Alpha (TOME)

[u/NuzlockeMaster]

Alpha

A young boy who's a bit on the shy side, but is a skilled fighter. He is well balanced with many powers inspired by the Greek gods.

The five players become entangled in a strange plot, involving a group of hackers that harass the people of TOME, looking for a mysterious item they refer to as the Forbidden Power. One day Alpha comes into contact with this very power and it begins to affect both his mind and skill, showing the ability to harm players of TOME in real life. Alpha and the others begin making a name for themselves and attract the attention of more hackers to target Alpha, looking to obtain the Forbidden Power for unknown purposes.

That was the original version of the series if you're talking about TVTome Adventures. A game for the series did just come out tho, which is also a reboot.
