“Stole a staff? Me? Pfft. No. This is… uh, family heirloom. Passed down. Very magical. Very legal.”

Meet Vaelira. Ice mage. Adventurer. Definitely didn’t steal her master’s staff. (Okay, maybe she did. But she had reasons.)

She left home to prove herself—and maybe freeze a few things on purpose. So far? She’s frozen her boots to the ground, scared off a rabbit with an ice spike, and gotten kicked out of at least one village.

But every misfire is a lesson. Every awkward success is a win. And with a sarcastic ranger at her side and a dream too big to abandon,

Vaelira is determined to become the great mage she swears she is. One spell at a time. Preferably without freezing anyone else.

The Heart of the Northwind series blends fantasy comedy with old-school adventure — messy spells, stubborn heroes, and just enough sword & sorcery to keep things exciting.

Forced to grow up in the turbulent 1930s, Oliver Evans and his fellow orphans are spared a desperate existance in an overcrowded orphanage when he awakens as a Craftsman while trying to clean a stain in the bathroom. His awakening reveals a secret world in the heart of Manhattan that nobody knew existed.

Time has run out for V, as an outcast goblin she must find her place in the warren or have it decided for her. Pushed from her malaise, she is drawn to and marked by the divine flame. Her nightmare becomes a source of strength. Wielding this strange gift, V takes her first steps into a dangerous world. Goblin intrigue, cruel human adventurers, ancient dungeons and strange magic await. Can a weak goblin survive on hope and pluck alone, or must it be earned in blood?

What to expect:

• Goblin MC who must get proactive and competent to survive in a dangerous world.

• Slow, but steady progression-focused high fantasy

• LitRPG elements not prominently displayed. System based on D&D 5e.

When the System Apocalypse hits, Jane finds herself more and more in the role of a “Mary Sue”. What is going on that makes her that special…or is it really all about her?

Ready to propose to Livia, her long-time girlfriend, Jane wakes up to humanity being digitised into an alien computer system. She seems to be the only person to notice, and when the System starts to manifest for people, the only one to question it. When the System seems to bend backwards to fulfil her every wish, giving her extra powers and surrounding her with a harem, she plays along, ready to grab at any straw to find out what really is going on.

---

“Livia and Me” is a slow-burn System Apocalypse story following the life of Jane, a 21-year-old bisexual. It includes characters from the whole LBGTQ+ “letter salad” (even a straight side character or two), many of whom come with traumatic events (suicide, self-harm, murder, parental abuse, etc.) weighing them down.

Content warning:

• Traumatic events (suicide, self-harm, murder, parental sexual abuse, etc.) in the backstory of characters. These are referred to in the story and in various way, including grapic descriptions.
• Includes characters admitting they weren't virgins when they turned 18.
• Note: Only one character is younger than 18 during the events of the story; she's 17y364d12h when she joins the story. Bonus chapters do include flashbacks, but no depictions of sexual activity.
• Includes themes of mind control, including for characters who engage in adult activities.
• Includes characters who have wrong opinions.
• Includes evil characters doing evil things.

Waking up as a sentient magic crystal buried underground wasn’t on Ethan’s to-do list. One minute, he was an engineer—designing factory assembly lines, optimizing production, and grumbling about deadlines. The next? He’s a glowing rock with instincts screaming at him to spawn monsters and hoard treasure.

System Booting… Warning: Dungeon Assistant Not Present. Compensating… Memories Restored. Bonus Ability Granted.

Oh. Well, that explains why he suddenly remembers coffee, spreadsheets, and why OSHA violations are a terrible idea. Instead of following the traditional dungeon route—traps, monsters, and being yet another EXP farm for adventurers—Ethan has a better idea. Industrialization.

Why summon goblins when you can build an automated ore refinery? Why rely on bats and slimes when you can engineer a self-sustaining magical factory? Who needs gold when you can mass-produce enchanted goods and sell them to the surface world?

Unfortunately, the local adventurers aren’t thrilled about a dungeon that doesn’t want to be looted, the kingdom isn’t sure what to make of a dungeon that pays taxes, and rival dungeons? They just want to eat him.

Armed with a questionable system, an army of quirky golems, and the sheer stubbornness of an overworked engineer, Ethan is about to prove that progress isn’t just for the surface world.

If dungeons are supposed to be deadly, then why not make death an industry?

Sneak peaks of the next story and the occasional alternate ending will also uploaded.

Let's strike some sparks... and break some hearts!

Note on cadence : Initial uploads will be slower than other works on this site. This will allow me to finish an intensive editing process for my full length novel, which is a retelling of the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice.

Note on content warnings : Content warnings are general guidelines and may not be applicable to every story.

Admiral Stonefist has served the Emperor faithfully for 30 years, keeping the galaxy safe and expanding the Imperium's borders. A grizzled veteran with a lifetime of war behind him, he is dour, cynical, and angry-- long disillusioned with the ideals of the Imperium.

His new assistant, Kinnit the Kobold, is overjoyed to be the first from her planet to be assigned to the coveted Ninth Fleet. She arrives filled with hope and energy, eager to rise through the ranks of the Imperial Navy and earn all Kobolds the right to become full members of the Imperium.

Admiral Stonefist hates that his new assistant is not human and is alarmed as his slowly growing respect for her begins to develop into something else. He is determined to drive her out of the Navy for her own good. However, with her help he discovers an insidious conspiracy which threatens the safety of the entire Imperium.

Can the Admiral and the Assistant cooperate long enough to disrupt the vile machinations of the Imperium's reluctant allies and stop the Insectoid menace? And can the Admiral grapple with his newfound feelings, which fly in the face of society and the law?

(Space Opera with romance elements)

In the world of Galae, where the gods are dead or have abandoned their creations, the Gilded Era is over and the balance of power is as unstable as the land itself. In this tumultuous world, Aster discovers that he is more than just an unremarkable young man in a small village when he becomes one of the Attuned: individuals with extraordinary abilities and near limitless paths of progression. Before he can grasp the true meaning or power of his attunement, the invasion of his secluded hometown of Karipos launches him and his sister Phaea into a journey to find their true paths.

Armed with resilience and instinct, Aster navigates a world that was shattered and reformed, relying on the strength of his bonds with others and a cautious curiosity to overcome his trials. In order to claim agency over the vast world of Galae and build a new home for Phaea and himself, Aster must harness his celestial connection as he forges the Path of Constellation, drawing on echoes of the fallen pantheon. In his journey, he will gather allies, confront formidable enemies in the race for power, and unlock the limitless potential that the gods once constrained. In this new age, free from the imposition of divine will, the paths before mortals are as boundless as the stars.

Bratty kids. Overbearing parents. Unsupportive administration. To Basque, it's all part of the job. As a teacher, he'd seen it all.

Or so he thought.

Psychotic students. Emotionally devoid parents. An administration that measures success by survival rate? That's what awaited Basque at Dyntril Academy, a place where the "retention rate" isn't the number of dropouts, but a body count.

A renowned hunter in his own right, Basque is also a brilliant teacher, churning out master hunter after master hunter, which made him an excellent candidate to evaluate a potential ally's education system. But when he arrives, Basque is told that he'll be teaching the lowest level of students for the next five years. Now Basque must juggle his responsibilities as a foreign ambassador while trying to keep his students alive until graduation.

Oh, and let’s not forget the Yani: monsters that flay and devour anyone unlucky enough to cross their path—the very monsters the school claims to train students to fight.

Just what sort of hellhole was he sent to?

CelestOS: Thank you for choosing Celestitech, where your survival is our third highest priority!

Ethan Cross wasn't supposed to be on this mission. He snuck aboard the doomed vessel, desperate to find his fiancée, Maria, only to crash-land on an uncharted alien world. Now he's got nothing but a basic omni-tool, a shredded suit, and the sarcastic company AI, CelestOS-4-2, whispering performance evaluations in his ear.

The official mission was simple: find the Veslaya research team—the team Maria was on—and recover valuable data. But the world has changed. The environment is hostile, the wildlife is worse, and the remnants of something ancient—and dangerous—ripple beneath the surface.

To survive, Ethan must rebuild from scrap, fight evolving alien threats, and uncover the truth behind the mission that was never meant to succeed. With every base he constructs and every battle he wins, he inches closer to finding Maria—the only reason he risked everything, and the only thing that still matters now.

Time is running out. Resources are scarce. And something is watching.

Starting June 18th I will be posting to Royal Road under the same pen name. Posting this here so that Royal Road knows I am not stealing this book to post on Royal Road.

As well, as Patreon.

My current plan is to be five chapters ahead for free here. 10 ahead for $5 on patreon and 20 ahead for 10$ on patreon as well.

Congratulations! Due to your great feat of combat, you have qualified for evolution! Would you like to evolve into the war evolution [Orc]?

NO! Risha’s denial echoed through her as she refused the question with her entire being.

The screen disappeared, leaving nothing but the bleeding corpse of the spider behind.

The overseer’s look of expectation turned into confusion, then disappointment as he shook his head.

“It seems that the fates have decided that the tiny servant is unworthy of becoming one of us.” The overseer spoke fluently, and Risha only understood a few words, but she knew that he was wrong.

She refused the fates, the fates did not refuse her.

****

Risha is the smallest goblin of her village, but she managed to survive through her intelligence and cunning. That is, until she is thrown into the pit by an overseer.

The overseer has no need for a weak goblin, and would rather use her as food for her village's warbeasts. When she comes out on top against the monster of the pit, the overseer is only more disappointed to see her remain in the weak form of a goblin.

Risha does not wish to become an orc, and she will forge her own path. Together with the spiderlings she is forced to raise, she will find freedom for herself and her people.

What to expect:

Empire Building

War And Military

Cute Goblins

Lots of action!

System Shenanigans

Unique evolution path

Lots of cool stuff!

The Redsong Saga tells the story of Saga Rose, an adventuring Bard who is caught up in the return of an ancient evil. Inducted into a secret order tasked with stopping it, she must travel the world of Chorana, making friends, gathering allies, and increasing her own power, all in the hopes of being able to end the growing threat before it's too late. Along the way she'll encounter monsters, bandits, cultists, and more, and she'll need all of her strength, magic, and wits to overcome the challenges they present and solve the mystery of the Voidsong.

What to expect:

1. Traditional epic fantasy inspired by the likes of The Lord of the Rings, The Wheel of Time, The Stormlight Archives
2. Action, adventure, comedy, and a touch of romance
3. Themes of hope, determination, and forgiveness
4. A slow burn, introducing a carefully crafted world to (hopefully) fall in love with

Once a famed noble and considered the jewel of the Sky Empire, Asterin “Eri” Kishpu-La’atzu is now sleeping in piles of trash and working for criminal overlords in order to afford a new life away from the only home she’s ever known. But fate, ever a cruel mistress, threatens her at every turn until she’s falling into the arms of those who hunt her in the hopes of some form of salvation.

Follow Eri’s journey as she goes from underworlder to warrior, and from warrior to… something more, something worse, something that fate itself beckons her towards.

All of humanity received the same warning, about seven magical challenges that it will have to survive or go extinct, but modern man is not alone in that. Arthur Pendragon emerges from beneath Glastonbury Tor, Francis Drake fulfills his ancient oath to serve his nation, and in Ulaanbaatar, Genghis Khan rules once again.

However, there are others still, throwing an already chaotic world further out of whack. Can humanity stabilize itself and continue on when even the very world itself seems to have turned against them, only having ancient legends to rely on?

The hourglass breaks, the debt comes due—will fate claim you, or will you break through?

Cassian’s days were filled with petty quarrels and quiet moments with his mother—until the doorbell rang. What should have been another ordinary evening turned to horror as her laughter twisted into a desperate scream. In an instant, her life was stolen. And with it, his own.

But death is not the end. In the silence that followed, an ancient voice called out, pulling Cassian’s shattered soul from the abyss. With it came a second chance—and the means to claim power. But power never comes without a price. And soon, Cassian must decide just how much he’s willing to pay.

Now bound by time, every second is a countdown to his end. The clock ticks away his borrowed time, forcing him into a cosmic game where he is mere entertainment for higher beings. But if he survives, he may gain untold powers—enough to take back what was stolen and make them all pay.

Life was stolen, time was rewound—will you rise or stay Timebound?

What to expect:

❂ Deckbuilding LitRPG with Time ticking down

❂ Third person

❂ There will likely be some romance in the future. No harem

❂ Complex Worldbuilding (Multiple Story levels)

❂ A Tapestry of Characters (Main focus on MC)

❂ A Competent MC

❂ STATS and unique Deckbuilding system with references to MTG

This story is a healthy blend of ORV, The Devils Cage and MTG

Dane always knew the System played favorites, but he never thought he’d be blacklisted. When his integration fails, leaving him statless, skill-less, and one bad decision away from freezing to death, he does what any reasonable person would do.

He makes a deal with a demon. Now wielding a Warlock class fueled by sacrifice, he needs to survive the Incursion - a war for dominance over a newly integrated world. The Imperial Army, led by Prince Xeroc and his High-Blood nobles, are here to claim the land for themselves. The Aji-Abami, a brutal race of dog-like warriors, don’t plan to let them. And the native telepaths watching from the shadows? They’re playing a game no one else understands. Dropped into hostile territory with enemies on all sides, Dane must fight, adapt, and outthink everyone just to stay alive. And with the System’s final activation looming, the battlefield is about to change - permanently. His mission? Survive. Gather enough Deeds to solidify his place in the System. Avoid signing any more contracts with demons. Easier said than done. For fans of gritty LitRPGs, dark fantasy survival, and main characters who refuse to die quietly, Incursion is an unforgiving, fast-paced adventure with no respawns and no second chances - only the cold, hard grind toward power. War is coming. And Dane? He’s might just emerge from the shadows stronger than them all.

The world is dying, and everyone knows it. But is the alternative worse?

In rust-choked streets and hollowed-out cities, there is only one way out—Terra Mythica, a virtual world so immersive that time warps, hunger vanishes, and even the most broken can live like kings.

Jace wasn’t supposed to make it in. He cheated death, and now it’s catching up to him. As the reluctant protégé of Hades, Jace finds himself thrust into Mount Olympus University, where gods manipulate Travelers, and the line between real and digital blurs with every step.

Here, survival is about more than just staying alive—it’s about clinging to your mind before it slips away, lost in this strange never-never land.

In this mythological LitRPG, follow Jace as he battles deadly trials, navigates treacherous alliances, and uncovers shocking secrets. His fight isn’t just for glory—it’s for his soul.

If you crave epic tales of battling impossible odds and finding light in the darkness, Terra Mythica will pull you in and never let go.

"The real treasure was the friends we ate along the way."

♣ ♦ ♥ ♠

A world about to fry.

A dead man on his last dime.

And a whole lot of unfinished business.

Who could ask for anything more?

♣ ♦ ♥ ♠

Just your classic tale of an undead detective with nothing left to lose, risking it all to find something worth dying for... again.

It kicks off with me—half-dead, dripping in demon guts, and trading jabs with Death himself. I used to be a washed-up detective, more of a sideshow freak than a hero, until I found myself pulled back in. A dame, unlike any other, shows up: moonlit eyes, a damn curse, a city-crushing demon, and a leather jacket that doesn't know when to shut up.

And that was just the start. Now I’m revived, barely stitched together, and fighting to stay one step ahead of the underworld’s darkest secrets. This city is a demon-lamp-lit labyrinth, and every corner hides something hungry, broken, or both.

Demons, undead, and a bad case of the end the world. What could go wrong?

Grab a drink, strap in, and hold onto your fedora—because this story isn’t for the faint of heart.

♣ ♦ ♥ ♠

Welcome to a world where noir meets the supernatural—a dystopian city drenched in shadows and soot, where the rain never stops, and magic lurks in the corners. Jack, our hard-boiled protagonist, is a private investigator with a knack for pissing off all the wrong people. Guided by Frank, his demon-possessed jacket, Jack tackles cases that blur the lines between the living and the dead, unraveling conspiracies that threaten to end reality itself.

Monsters aren’t the problem - adventurers are.

Eric runs Beast Be Gone, the last pest control business in a world obsessed with XP, loot, and fireball slinging. Where others see quests and prophecy, Eric sees fire damage, unpaid invoices, and terrified slimes who just want a quiet life someplace damp.

Work is drying up fast, and with no jobs, gold, or patience left, Eric’s future looks grim - until a young, perky inventor with mechanical gadgets and zero filter insists on becoming his apprentice.

What starts as pest control turns into a chaotic quest of their own, as the two uncover a plot that may finally answer fantasy’s greatest mysteries:

*- Why are there so many Chosen Ones?

• Are goblins evil or just in the wrong PR department?

• Why does every sword merchant claim to sell the “best swords in the land”?

• And what are the socio-economic consequences of having a sword shop on every street corner?*

Somebody wants a world overflowing with adventurers… but why?

Jerry had once been told by a fortune cookie that his life would take a “bold new direction.” At the time, he had scoffed, because he was working a dead-end job at Perky Beans Café, living in a studio apartment that smelled faintly of wet socks, and the boldest decision he had made that week was whether to buy name-brand peanut butter or stick with the generic stuff.

It turned out, the cookie had been right.

It just failed to mention that his bold new direction would involve intergalactic smuggling, highly combustible espresso, and what was—technically speaking—an act of war against an advanced alien civilization that took its beverages very seriously .

Now, armed with an ever-growing skill tree of questionable utility, Jerry has to grind his way up the galactic leaderboard before he’s permanently roasted .

The customer is always right… except when they’re trying to kill you.

Johnny had won the most recent championship in Banzai Bangers and was thinking of calling it quits after the current season. That all changed when he was given an opportunity to use his skills testing a new prototype vehicle, from his main sponsor D.R.I.F.T.E.R.S. to explore new worlds. Unfortunately, things wouldn’t go to plan.

Johnny ends up trapped in another world. With no way to get home. He is at the mercy of this new world. That is until he is saved by the mysterious Radiant Alliance. With their help and his AI assistant. Johnny will face a new threat at every literal turn. Whether it be void portals, rift eaters, The Devouring Darkness, or old rivals. He will need all the help he can get, if he hopes to succeed in defeating the ultimate evil of the Loathing One, once and for all.

Follow Johnny and his allies as they fight and race there way across the universe. As he attempts to thwart the plans of the Loathing One from getting more powerful.

(Author's note: Im currently rewriting this story as my fourth draft. I upload as soon as a chapter is done).

Book ideas were inspired for my passion of racing. A video game i played as a kid called destruction derby arenas and still play, and other likes and interests.

There exists a sentient, telepathic, and deeply empathetic sword of unimaginable power—Hazahnahkah.

The sword has a soul, and his powers to reshape spacetime, transform his wielder, and even revive the dead are as simple to him as breathing.

But there are many humans, monsters, and things which can test even these godly abilities… Will Hazahnahkah solve the mystery of who was powerful enough to make him? Can he save the humans he encounters on his journey from themselves?

The world of Serpent’s Ramble is vast, and Hazahnahkah will face trials of all kinds, from hellish abominations to enslaved gods to haunted space stations. His first trial will begin with a wielder unlike any other—someone just like him—a blind and naked orphan, drowning in a river.

Warning - Not Kaelin's POV For The First 12 chapters!

Kaelin, at 17 years old, is well past the age at which most people unlock their affinities for the threads. Any combination of: Nature, Mind, Essence, and Time. And yet, despite this she hopes: she hopes and she works in order to be ready once it does appear.

Kana on the other hand, can't understand why she does this, why put herself through the pain for something which is obviously not going to happen. Until it does.

In a world filled with magic, some spells have been lost to time, the strongest kept quiet by the high mages, and the most evil - forbidden - techniques locked away in the annals of history, only known to those who look. Their use is worthy of a punishment no less than death.

But what happens when someone ignores the rules? Those spells were forbidden for a reason. How can people resist without breaking the rules themselves?

After having found one such spell, Kaelin is put in an impossible position; forced to choose between using it, or losing a friend.

What to expect:

• A Unique Magic System

• Characters Have Depth and Distinct Personalities

• Combat Based Around Strategy

• Expansive World Building - Heavily Researched

• No Harem or VR

Bored Jeb finds himself on a sabotaged mission, crash lands on Earth. The ensuing adventure, without any means of transferring from one body to another, puts Jeb into true peril. His AI Jeebz thinks it's all funny of course. In the end, what will he find out about the planet earth? And even more important, is he going to find out who he really is?

Magic exists within us all. Not all of us have the mettle to mold it.

All his life, Jasper dreamed of being a manasmith. To take up the family business and exceed even his father's great heights. It was a good dream, one that promised comfort and prestige. A fate he'd gladly subject himself to.

But fate rarely follows the whims of mortals.

When an accident places his family in harm's way, Jasper does what he must, even if it means serving House Peregrin.

They've tasked him with one job—pass his exams and serve the lord's daughter at one of the most renowned schools in the world.

In six months, the academy opens its gates, and he has no choice but to be ready. Pass, and he'll gain three years of unparalleled resources, tutoring, and connections. Fail, and his family falls with him.

The Deadly Touch Series:

1. Healer's Touch
2. Warrior's Touch
3. Magician's Touch (this one ... a WIP)

Four years ago, the System arrived and rewrote the rules of survival, progress, and technology. Humanity adapted, unlocking passive skills, reshaping society, and reaching for the stars. But with a hard level 60 cap and only TL8 tech, the Solar System has become a cage.

Now, for the first time, humanity is stepping beyond it.

Luca Rossi and his young, ambitious crew board the Triumph of Darron, one of Earth’s first FTL ships, bound for Alpha Centauri. Their mission? Explore the uncharted, document its mysteries, and uncover what the System hasn’t told them. But beyond the mission log, it’s a chance to break free; to discover alien worlds, ancient secrets, dangerous portals, and maybe even themselves.

This isn’t just about space. It’s about twenty-somethings on the edge of the unknown, navigating life, love, and survival in deep space. Expect messy relationships, hard choices, and a journey where every discovery, out there or within, has a price.

What to Expect:

-- Disclaimer: The story builds very slowly as our main character eventually matures. He is portrayed for what he is, a young, hormonal tween experiencing freedom for the first time. The story is meant to be raunchy at the beginning. If this is not your cup of tea, then it may be worth skipping. --

🚀 Slow-Burn Progression – The story builds up, but trust me, it gets good.

🌌 Exploration & Adventure – Alien ecosystems, volatile portals, and deep-space survival.

📖 A Personal, Raw POV – Told through Luca’s unfiltered, messy, and emotional lens.

🛠 Lite LitRPG – Passive skills that shape survival, combat, and life aboard the ship.

💡 Slice of Life in Space – Crew bonding, relationships, and figuring out adulthood at FTL speeds.

🔥 Fluid Relationships – No harem, just playful dynamics in a tight-knit crew.

Inspired by: GURPS, X4 Foundation, Eve Online, MOO, Stellaris, No Man’s Sky.

Join the crew of the Triumph of Darron. Humanity’s greatest adventure is only just beginning.

"From my lips to the ears of the gods..."

In the shadow of the Ivory Tower, Siomha Sinistra, a maiden granted Insight tries to put her troublesome comprehension to good use. Whether solving mysteries for a few pieces of gold and food or breaking into the mental realm of other Awakened to pull them back from the brink of madness, there were always jobs for her to pick up.

While her life was never normal, it was shattered through a simple unforeseen action. His Gaze was upon her now and she could feel his direct touch upon her soul and mind.

She had been chosen.

Unfortunately for everyone, 'he' had picked the worst (or best perhaps) person for the job. Even worse, she was not alone to be blessed so.

Atlas Zeb has lived his entire life in poverty. It's hard for an orphan to make ends meet, but his one out is the Mantle Trial where he could be bestowed with the power to become an Adventurer and fight the monsters in the dungeon instead of just picking up the crystals left behind for others. But the world of Adventurers is not the easy life that he'd thought it was. Can he navigate this new world or will he be another casualty for history to forget?

What to Expect:

[+] First-person perspective of a male MC

[+] Weak to strong VERY slowburn progression

[+] Atlas is a guy who starts with nothing and has very little initial agency. This is a series about finding a voice and coming into power without becoming a monster like the ones who currently rule.

[+] This is a HAREM series. Specifically a fade-to-black one. Also, don't expect every woman that's introduced to join Atlas' harem.

What to Expect

1. Emotionally diverse characters that are 30+.
2. A rich dark supernatural setting that sets an eerie tone.
3. A tactile magic with a unique system that focuses on sewing and fabric.
4. The “system” that is concrete behind the scenes and integrated into the story seamlessly.
5. Relatable yet complex characters that deal with personal loss, tough choices, self-discovery, authentic relationships, and moral ambiguity.

In Pittsburgh's shadow-filled streets, Ezekiel Cross hunts the monsters others can't see.

Half-human, half-celestial, Ezekiel struggles to pay his bills while keeping the supernatural darkness at bay. Armed with an ancient revolver called Judgment Call and the ability to see beyond the veil of reality, he takes cases normal detectives won't touch.

When nurse Sarah Matthews seeks his help to find her missing brother Michael, Ezekiel uncovers a terrifying pattern. People undergoing profound personal transformations are disappearing, leaving behind only their most cherished possessions and strange frost patterns. The mysterious Renaissance Path organization promises spiritual rebirth but harbors dark secrets connected to an entity known only as "The Collector."

As Sarah develops the same mysterious mark that appeared on her brother before he vanished, Ezekiel races against time to unravel a conspiracy woven through Pittsburgh's supernatural underbelly. To save Sarah and the others, he'll have to confront not only ancient entities hungry for human transformation energy, but also the monster inside himself.

Some covenants are meant to be broken. Others will break you first.

Fen is a young princess in hiding from the murderous rage of her grandfather. Tamberlyn is a poet of no particular skill or talent. Taliette is an indolent psychopath who spends her days tormenting servant girls.

But the old king is coming across the great divide, trailing giant monsters in his wake. Coming to burn Fen in the flame everlasting, and who will stand against him?

I died at eighty-five, surrounded by family. I figured that was it: lights out, game over. Instead, a glitchy afterlife spat me into a new world of magic, and I landed in the last place I expected: the body of Renette, a spitfire of a girl with a death wish. Only problem? Her soul got ripped out seconds before I arrived, and I’m the sorry bastard stuck wearing her stolen skin.

I’ve got no name, just memories of a lifetime of fixing what’s broken. In this world, that's an entire laundry list, since whoever built this system abandoned it and left it on autopilot. Mysterious, automated voices promise apotheosis: power to bend the world. Good. I’ll use it to put the kid back where she belongs, then find the afterlife I earned. An old soul’s got no business here, but I’ve got a few tricks left, and I’m not stopping ‘til the job’s done.

Su Lan Yi was this close to ascending to the Heavens—one step away from eternal power, divine mastery, and proving every rival wrong. Then a chicken ruined it.

One thousand years of cultivation, gone in an instant. Now she’s trapped inside a fractured multiverse of badly written books, forced to play the role of a supposedly-dead villainess with her soul scattered across multiple worlds. Worse? An overly enthusiastic System is screeching at her to "fix the plot."

Her response? Maximum chaos.

If fate wants her to follow the script, she’ll rewrite it. From clawing her way out of a coffin and building an apothecary empire to staging a dramatic return and toppling entire power structures, Su Lan Yi is done being a pawn—she’s playing for the throne.

She’s not here to be a hero. She’s here to break the cycle, burn the rulebook, and maybe, just maybe, get revenge on every bird in existence.

⚠️ CONTAINS: Shameless villainy, reality-breaking world-hopping, a cutthroat mastermind who always wins , a System with too many opinions, and the most adorable familiar ever.

Something is wrong with these worlds, and she’s going to fix them—

in the most gloriously villainous way possible.

Bloodfyre

Awakening in a deadly dungeon with no memories and three lives to survive, Jackson Grey discovers his hidden vampyric nature. As his thirst for blood grows, so does his power—but so do the dangers that hunt him.

When all is lost, Jackson must embrace what he truly is and unleash abilities beyond imagination. But power always comes with a price, and the hunger that drives him might be more dangerous than any monster lurking in the shadows.

Some thirsts can never be quenched. Some hungers never satisfied.

Will Jackson escape the dungeon, or will he become the very monster he fears?

A shattered past. A stolen future. A prince reborn in the shadows.

Kyle Darkstone grew up believing he was just the son of a village healer—until the day his mother was accused of treason and sent to die on the frontlines. Helpless to stop it, he swore he would bring her back. But fate had other plans.

Visions of past lives flood his mind, granting him skills no one should possess. The blood of a fallen monarchy runs through his veins. And the power slumbering within him should be his to command—if not for the Contract. A bond between men and the women who tether them to sanity, the only thing keeping their abilities from consuming them.

But Kyle is different. The Contract rejects him. No matter how he tries, the bond will not form. Without it, he is powerless. So when he stumbles upon a dying Spirit—a rare and monstrous being—he makes a choice. If no bond will take him, he will claim something else.

One Spirit. Then another. And another. Each one he hunts, each one he devours, makes him stronger. The nobles who conspired against his family, the Arcana who thrive on chaos, and the monsters lurking in the abyss will all learn one truth:

A wolf does not forgive. A wolf does not forget.

A progression dark fantasy filled with brutal intrigue, deep conspiracies, and a protagonist who refuses to be a pawn in anyone’s game.

Welcome to Metem; an elaborate world of danger, magic, and mystery. Where adventurers whisper of shadows and slay monsters for levels and loot.

With a broken interface and an unresponsive log out phrase; Cory has decisions to make. Decisions like: is this real life, is this just fantasy? Queen lyrics aside, our MC sobers up in an empty stone chamber with four mirrors, simulating pre-game character selection. In the hopes that the system will correct itself and let him exit, Cory sets out to explore this new land.

After enough bumps, bruises, and self-deprecation Cory needs to accept this new reality in the hope that he can make his way home.

Follow Cory as he is pulled into Metem and starts his journey with the familiar taste of rock bottom. Reluctantly, he moves forward into a deluge of unforgiving encounters, dynamic personas, and formidable quests; all in a vain attempt to survive.

Is he competent? Mostly. Is he mature? Kind of. Will he be able to complain his way out of this one? Probably not, but dammit he’ll try.

What to Expect:

No Murderhobo

Often described as a gateway drug to litRPG—well, eventually... hopefully

Has an ending. I told my wife and she cried; I promise.

A lot of world building for the first 30 chapters or so

Relatively slow-burn

Expect stats to grow with story

Middle-aged, weak-to-strong MC. Sorry, no teens.**

Author’s Note:

Book one is complete: (TBC) The Blind Chemist

Book two: (BCB) The Ballad of Cici Beo

Most skeletons guard treasure. Tim got stuck with a baby.

Tim was enjoying the simple afterlife—patrolling his dungeon, scaring adventurers, and dealing with his idiot zombie sidekick, Garth. But when a cursed infant with mismatched eyes is dumped on their doorstep, everything goes to hell.

Now, instead of stabbing heroes, Tim’s stuck stealing cow’s milk, dodging sword-swinging adventurers, and explaining (again) to Garth why babies aren’t snacks. Worse, the kid’s curse is attracting attention—dangerous attention—and if the wrong people find her, it’s game over for all of them.

How will the powers of a god compare to the indomitable human spirit?

Tartarus is a dangerous place, every child knows that. But when a new soul finds his way there with no memories and no name, he gets to learn the harsh truth firsthand. Who is he? Why is he there? Why are entities beyond his understanding taking a personal interest in him? And why does everyone have a level? He doesn’t know, but he’s going to find out, even if it kills him.

Monsters, gods, and more are at play. Thrust into events far beyond his ken, our protagonist has to learn how to fight and use the strange abilities at his disposal if he’s going to protect his newfound family. If they’re going to survive, however, he can’t be the only one who grows.

Heavily inspired by Greek Mythology, Project Tartarus is a gripping tale of LitRPG fantasy and adventure. Featuring a found-family cast of characters who work to forge a shining light of hope in a cruel, dark world. This Sword & Sorcery story has elements of horror, romance, and striking imagery, but is also a story of courage and fighting for one’s friends against all odds.

**The family that quests together, stays together. **

Blaine gave up his old glory days of playing MMORPGs with his buddies for the wonderful job of being a solo dad. But, some days, he would rather slay some goblins, destroy a boss, and feast in a tavern - without having to do the dishes later.

What better way to get back into gaming than with family? A brand-new game comes out on the market and it’s perfect to play with the kids: Seconds-Over. A VR video game unlike any other, where every moment matters. Even just sitting and breathing can level up stats in the game! But like reality, you can’t sit and rest while your kids are running around and stirring up trouble with every monster's nest.

When his six-year-old collects a cute, little flower crown, it triggers a boss that sends Blaine and his family on a timed quest to unlock a legendary class. If Blaine can get it, he can relive the excitement of his old streaming and PVP tournament days. Back to when people recognized him and recognized his name and wanted to watch his fighting skills. But to earn this class, he and the kids, with their unique problem solving, will have to uncover the truth of the guardian who once held the class.

With the clock ticking, other guilds fighting them to have this epic prize, and real-life parenting to do - Blaine will have to rely on his family and friends to achieve his goals. Not just building a community, but building up his kids and using the world of the game to prepare them for the harshest world of all - reality.

If you want to see gods, they're not up above... they're on the battlefield.

The year is 2848, and wars aren't fought by armies, they're fought by companies. A.R.M.S. Pilots: men and women who sacrifice their citizenship to chase fame, fortune, and glory in the territories of Free Space stride through the battlefield as gods among mortals, commanding towering mechs with weapons to rival the heroes of the old world. For some, it's a life of adventure and riches beyond imagination. For Cameron Pellyn, the exiled prince of Ketris, it's his only shot at redemption. Caught in the political crossfire, betrayed, and stripped of his birthright, Cameron's thrown headfirst into a mercenary's brutal life. He's got a new name, Cam Ket, a new purpose, and a mentor who refuses to let him quit. Logan, freelance mercenary, and one time Guard Captain of Ketris, sees Cameron as more than just a prince; he sees a warrior in the making. But to survive, Cameron must adapt...fast.

Training under Logan's relentless guidance, piloting outdated A.R.M.S units, and battling more experienced enemies, Cameron's forced to find his own path to power. He's no hero, but when an old enemy threatens his home world, Cameron will have to lead the charge. The enemies of Ketris are closing in, and only by embracing his new role as a pilot can he hope to protect the people he loves.

What to expect:

• Mechs! Towering war machines with the power to change the fate of planets.
• Weak to strong MC: Watch Cameron grow from a reluctant exile to a formidable A.R.M.S. Pilot.
• Sci-Fi/Space Opera adventure with progression and light LitRPG mechanics.
• A slow burn progression system that will become more apparent and utilized beginning in chapter 24.
• Intense political intrigue with real consequences.
• A protagonist who faces hard choices and makes morally complex decisions.
• A lovable, ragtag group of mercenaries, each with their own secrets and motivations.

The Hounds of Orion are just getting started, and Cameron is ready to make his mark. Will he rise to the challenge, or be left behind in the dust of Free Space? Strap in, it's time to find out... Did I mention mechs?

Amar wakes up somewhere he's never been, in a body that's not his.

That's the least of his worries.

Stuck in the body of his MMO game character, a max level Aether Mechanic, he finds himself in the world of his game, a hundred years before the timeline he knows. This is before The Order destroyed the Empire, before The Academy closed its doors, and before the crossing of the Boulders.

Using his knowledge of the game's future, he will have to decide if he wants to stop The Order, or whether fighting is a fool's errand that will only bring him death.

This book has:

An OP MC

A mix of a summoning and a crafting class

Academy Life

Cool Steampunk Stuff

Book to be launched soon.

“I’ve discovered a certain plasticity to the concept of right. And you, my man, are not it.”

Note: Spoilers for Healer's Touch contained in blurb

Once upon a time, the last Immortal lost his powers to an Aenuk Healer and her tree.

Nine hundred years later, he learns that an Immortal child is going to be born, and with it, the chance to regain his lost magic…

The Kara and Aenuk races have been enemies for centuries, but for Llew and Jonas, love won out. Now Llew faces an uncertain future: one nation wants her to breed their future army, and the other wants her dead.

Her Healing talent also means she is feared – and the child she carries makes her a target.

Jonas has returned to his people, but he is torn. The woman he loves is being kept away from him, his superiors want him to carry on his bloodline with an appropriate mate, and he’s being expected to fit back into a role he doesn’t want. He is meant to be a hero, but the only champion he wants to be is Llew’s and their child – a child who might change everything.

But for their enemy to regain his powers, Llew’s child must die; and in order for him to retain them, every Aenuk must be destroyed.

[Epic Romantic Fantasy]

Deadwood meets The Vampire Diaries in this tale of brother versus brother and blood-magic set in a gaslamp fantasy world.

Llew has a gift. Her body heals itself from any injury, at a cost to anyone nearby.

Llew’s father disappeared when she was eleven, leaving her orphaned, as far as she knew.

Since then, Llew has learned to survive the streets of the gold-mining town of Cheer – full of opportunistic men and desperation. It’s a hard existence made tougher when Llew's so-called friend accuses her of murder, sending her to the gallows.

Llew’s Aenuk ability to absorb life means she doesn’t stay dead for long, but she does leave a trail of death behind her.

Escaping the hangman’s noose sees Llew fall into the hands of Jonas: the man with the knife and the Karan power to kill Llew’s kind. If Llew can nurture the attraction he develops for her, maybe she can keep that knife from her heart.

But lurking in the shadows is Jonas’s half-brother, Braph: the man who has learned to combine Aenuk and Karan powers into infinite and addictive magical potential.

Healer's Touch is a fantasy novel flavoured with a wild west setting, steampunk-like technology, enough romance to draw you in, horror to keep you hooked, and just enough sex to keep things spicy.

The Deadly Touch Series:

1. Healer's Touch
2. Warrior's Touch
3. Magician's Touch (WIP)

In a world on the brink of annihilation, power is a choice—and every choice has a cost. Who will rise from the ashes, and who will fall into ruin?

Greenhaven burns. The once-thriving town crumbles under the onslaught of monstrous creatures, their roars mingling with the desperate cries of the dying. Across the fractured lands, humans and orcs wage a brutal war fueled by dwindling resources and ancient grudges. The elves watch from the shadows, silent and calculating, while goblins seize the chaos to forge machines of war and grasp for dominance.

In this maelstrom, Lady Lyanna Mirrorguard strives to outshine her older sister, Karina—the celebrated Champion Dragon Rider. Driven by ambition and a need for recognition, Lyanna vows to claim a dragon egg, the ultimate symbol of power. But the rivalry between sisters threatens to splinter their family and upend the fragile alliances holding their people together.

Kael, a young outcast scarred by a tormented past and his father’s scorn, discovers a secret that could reshape his destiny—and the world’s. In the ruins of war, he unearths not one, but two dragon eggs. The power they promise could redeem him or destroy everything he holds dear.

As war consumes the land and ancient forces stir, choices made in desperation will ignite rivalries, forge unlikely alliances, and reveal the true cost of ambition. Will heroes rise to bring light to the shadows, or will the world be swallowed by fire and blood?

Important Information:

1. This is an epic dark fantasy and has multiple POV. The first three chapters are all from different POVs before the POVs start repeating. The world is broken and suffering; the characters are suffering so do not expect a cozy fantasy but there will be happy moments.

2. The magic system does have cultivation themes and progression , but the magic system is semi-hard. No stats or gamelit elements.

3. A chapter a week!

4. The story will have a lot of action in starting. But there will be slower placed moments, character growth [Both positive and negative]. Characters will die, be broken and forged anew.

Expanding a chain of shrines to the Goddess of Love while building a harem of quirky beings and enjoying a surprisingly active love life? Not exactly what Nora had on her five-year career plan as a software developer racing toward another deadline. But everything changed when her dreams filled with vivid, enticing encounters that felt impossibly real.

In just a few weeks, she finds herself transported to a magical world complete with a flirtatious foxkin companion and an entire settlement of people looking to her for leadership. As if that weren't complicated enough, she's apparently the Chosen One of the Goddess of Love—whatever that means.

One consequence becomes clear immediately: her lengthy dry spell of romantic seclusion is definitely over!

But what does the Goddess truly want from Nora? And where will this journey lead the Chosen One and her growing circle of devoted followers? That's a path we'll have to explore together!

What to expect?

• Slow release. This is one of the projects I'm working on. So, at least for the foreseeable future, there rarely would be more than one chapter per week.
• Female MC
• Chapter length: 2,000—3,000 words
• Reverse harem, why choose, polyamory, multiple relationships
• Many characters besides the MC. And there will be romantic relationships between at least some of them
• Explicit content (FF, FM, MM, FFM, fantasy races, etc.). Only consensual. If you feel uncomfortable with any of that, there are many other books worth reading :)

After a lifetime of adventuring, reaching Level 100 should have been Aira's crowning achievement. Instead, it hurled her into an alien world where she's stripped of her powers, transformed into an undead, and forced to rely on strange tech just to access a fraction of her former abilities.

Now, with a reluctant alliance of locals whose loyalties remain uncertain, Aira must navigate competing factions and elemental powers beyond her understanding. As she discovers the connection between her mysterious rune and the ancient sources of this world, one question haunts her: was her arrival an accident, or has she been thrown into a story far larger than herself—one where the price of returning home might be higher than she's willing to pay?

Release Schedule

The adventure evolves every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with an extra interlude whenever the paradoxical powers of the multitude of worlds allow.

At the beginning of her journey home, Aira isn't even sure if she's going to regain her powers. But of course, besides that, she'd be happy to get back as soon as possible. But each step deepens her connection with this strange new world she has to explore. Through encounters with ancient beings, ruthless enemies, and mysteries, she gathers the Shards of Power, slowly realizing that somebody may have decided to use her as a pawn in their big game.

Worlds of Ascension is a journey that will take you to multiple realities with different Systems of magic. It is an adventure that explores strength, survival, and a profound path of self-discovery. Aira's path is paved with powerful magic, cosmic events, and the harsh reality of wielding forces that alter destinies—starting with her own.

What to Expect from Worlds of Ascension?

1. A Reluctant Heroine: Aira is powerful but conflicted; she's not here to save worlds—she's just trying to survive in them and move on.
2. Chapter length: 2,000—3,000 words (with 1,000-word interludes from time to time)
3. Female MC
4. Epic Fantasy in Multiple Realms: expect mind-bending magic, elemental forces, and worlds as varied as the Systems governing them.
5. Strong to weak (sort of) to OP (eventually). MC will spend a lot of time initially without full access to her powers.
6. Introspective Adventure: Follow Aira's journey from a reluctant survivor to a figure who must confront the weight of her growing power and its influence on friendship.
7. It may get a bit dark sometimes, but not too much.

Young orc warrior Jorak is elated to finally marry his beloved boyfriend Varog. To make sure everything is just perfect, he makes a deal with a devil for a charm that allows him to try again, and again. When that charm breaks, the young lovers find themselves trapped in a timeloop, hunting one another for sport.

Hey there!

Just a heads-up—this isn't a serious web novel. Instead, it's a collection of short stories, poems, songs, experimental writing, worldbuilding snippets, and other creative odds and ends. Think of it as a mix of ideas, styles, and stories, all gathered in one place.

I'll do my best to label each piece clearly—[POEM] for poems, [STORY] for stories, and so on. Hope you enjoy all these wierd bits and bobs!

Stranded on a new world his only option is to go full Genghis Khan.

Ray took to working as a killer-for-hire after he left his army days behind but he didn’t think of himself as an evil man. His code made sure he didn’t get caught and could sleep reasonably well at night. Discretion and professionalism were his watchwords and he had become very good at his job.

When a mission goes awry he finds himself alone and forced to start life again on a facsimile of ancient Earth. He has to kill to get stronger and the system doesn’t care if it’s animals or people. However many Souls he gains there are only six that truly matter.

His goal is to be the last one left alive of the six people exiled from Earth for the amusement of the gods. Whether it's terrifying beasts or savage tribes standing in his way, he can see only one path ahead of him:

Five people have to die so he can win the game, go back to Earth and take his revenge against a god.

What to expect:

System is introduced in Chapter 2

The story is an exploration of a new world so the main plot is a slow burn but Ray is constantly expanding his horizons and gaining strength.

There will be some empire building and technological uplift as Ray shares advanced ideas with the peoples he rises up to lead. The MC will eventually take his nomad horde south against the more civilised territories.

The system is loosely based on Dark Souls in terms of spending Souls on levels and stats or upgrading his magic. The magic and shop system is potent but limited. He’ll need allies if he is to stand a chance of winning.

The style is inspired by classic adventure stories like the Barsoom series. No harem, minor romance, intimate scenes are handled in a fade to black fashion.

It is entirely written in 1st person POV from Ray.

Chapters are 2.5k-3k words on average. Book one is complete. Book two is ongoing on Royal Road.

Release schedule M/W/F

Read up to seven weeks (21 chapters) ahead of Royal Road on my Patreon.

**School is out, and no one is going home. **

The game's rules are easy: Lamb or Wolf, the decision made by anyone but yourself

Hide from teeth unwanted, little Lamb, lest the Wolf find you.

A school twisted into a hunting ground, students changing into malformed creatures, all just to hunt those designated as prey.

Ezra was meant to be one of those creatures; somehow, having broken free from the process of being turned, he must now find his own way to play this twisted game, but above all else, he must try not to lose himself to the beast within.

What to expect.

-Psychological and Body-Horror.

-Progression, borrowing heavily from a tabletop system I created, with just enough of a slow burn until the system kicks in.

**-Action with a focus on handling limitations, outmanuvering, and being crafty.

Trying to have at least 2 chapters out every week.

An ancient game, held once every millenia, between champions of different worlds.

Matheus never had a chance to enjoy his first life. Known as the “King of Losers” after a video that went viral, he did his best to survive against increasingly meaner pranks.

When he starts his second life as a Champion in a contest among Gods, he is determined to create a different story for himself.

Getting cursed right at the start and not receiving any useful abilities kinda messed with his plans.

And why does the System never seem to take anything seriously?

What to expect:

How is a level 1 blacksmith supposed to kill five elites strong enough to slay a legend?!

Bound by an unusual Core that only allows him to use gear he crafts himself, Tristan must fight to survive in an ever-expanding magical world filled with legendary loot, dangerous dungeons, omnipresent oozes… and all-too human gods.

Born in the slums, Krollas crawled free and established himself in the city proper. His job as a detective is dragging him back and into depths he wishes he was unfamiliar with.

Krollas, the only true Mage in Kormos not bound to one of its ruling Families, has made his place in Kormos somewhere between the underworld and the upper crust. For the first time in years, though, one of his assignments has his life in danger, and the deeper he digs, the more corruption and Corruption alike he finds. Will the corrupted of the city be able to continue their plans, or will the light of Krollas's investigations reveal their twisted hearts?

When your daughter has the houserot and the Photomantic Guild won't help you, when Corruption is leaking into your water and the Cleaners' Union puts you on a three month waitlist, or when the Arcane Guard doesn't care about your missing family members, you hire Kormos' only Unbound Mage.

In a world where only the gods are immortal, Elias is the exception.

Immortality—coveted by all who have dared to dream. Wars have been waged, worlds have burned, and entire cultures eradicated for a chance to attain it. Elias never wanted it. He’s had it from the moment he awakened.

For years, it didn't affect his life. He learned sculpting from his father and enchanting from his mother. He lived as any mortal would. Then, everything fell apart. His family, friends, and his entire world—wiped out in an instant of random violence. But Elias saw the truth.

This was no accident.

Now, Elias must confront the darker side of immortality. For there are much worse things than death.

Fire devours wood. That is the law of the world. But what happens when the wood fights back?

Pinaka was an ordinary man. One moment, he was enjoying dinner with his family. The next, he was reincarnated as an Elf.

The Elves—once rulers of Gangnea—have lost everything. Their cities have fallen. Their power has faded. Their connection to the World Tree is slipping away. But while his new kin cling to the past, Pinaka sees a different path.

His first goal is simple: escape.

His captors believe the Elves are broken. That they can be controlled. That there is no fight left in them.

They are wrong.

Trapped inside a prison designed to keep Elves weak, Pinaka knows brute force won’t work. If he wants to survive, he needs to master the Authority of Wood, outthink his enemies, and shatter the system from the inside.

He doesn’t need an army. He doesn’t need a war. Not yet.

All he needs is one chance.

What to Expect:

A Non-Restrictive Power System – Creativity matters more than raw stats. Build, adapt, and break the game. A Cunning, Patient MC – No blind rage or reckless fights. Every move is calculated. (Give him some prep time early on!) No Harem, No Romance – 'Nuff said. A Game-Like World with True Build Freedom – Every decision affects growth. No preset paths, only custom power development. A Dark, Strategic Uprising – Slow-burn, high stakes.

Archie Gracefield was an average computer engineer, who was just about to head to the gym on a Saturday afternoon when the integration of the 72nd cycle began. Introducing Archie's universe into the multiverse, where power is a necessity to protect your freedoms from those who wish to take them. And take it they shall.

Archie delves headfirst into the multiverse, choosing to forgo the Group Tutorial over the Solo Tutorial. Now, he must fight tooth and nail to survive in a world where roided-up squirrels are a common sight, and gargantuan creatures are deemed as juveniles.

Hello! I've been a lurker on RR for a long time, well before making an account. During my years of reading on RR, I was inspired by many novels, including The Primal Hunter, The Runesmith, Path to Transcendence, and many more. As such, I've decided to write my own LitRPG epic.

Join the Discord here: https://discord.gg/ajB2wHjfY7

“Hey. Wanna buy a dungeon?”

Kai looked up at the human salesman. He looked down at himself. At the salesman. At himself. At the salesman. In a tone that clearly asked, ‘Are you stupid?, he stated, “I’m a gremlin.”

Kai was reincarnated in a new world as a gremlin for…reasons. He hasn’t figured that part out yet, but he sure as hell is going to punch whoever’s responsible in the frickin’ face one day.

When a super shady salesman appears out of nowhere offering to sell him a magical dungeon core with no down payment and no money upfront, a deal seemingly too good to be true, he’s more interested in the edible signing bonus. But when he finally gets around to planting the core, he truly is the proud new owner of a dungeon. Well, the start of one. He’s gonna have to level the crap out of it.

Follow Kai as he races against the clock to build the coolest, deadliest, most fun dungeon ever, filling it with traps and treasures, monsters and mayhem. And along the way, he might make a few good friends and maybe even fall in love. With a little faith in himself and a refusal to give up, anything is possible.

What started out as a simple mission to negotiate a trade deal with the reclusive Gray Elves for their amber concession turns into much more for Tendil Bascombe. Quickly finding himself in over his head, he is swept up into a world of magic, adventure, fantasy, romance, war, palace intrigue, and the meddling of the gods themselves. There is but one path for Tendil Bascombe to prove his worth to himself, his family, and to the woman he loves; he must rise to rhe occasion by whatever means are necessary.

This three-novel story arc follows our protagonist as he navigates a world well outside his comfort zone, learns who he is, finds his hidden talents, and grows as a person and as a man as the story is told.

Volume One is complete. Volume Two will be released in early spring 2025. Volume Three will come in early summer 2025.

Adrian decapitated the first thing he met. An orc. Then was a vital part in the cleaving of a second. The rest were either slaughtered, most brutally, or cut down during retreat. All under his command. He knew instinctively that murdering anything remotely green was not right. But it felt holy in some odd dystopian way.

Plus, there were endless numbers of them. So a few thousand that went missing wouldn't be a problem. Right?

Stuck as a noble son within the frontiers of a distant colony of the motherland. Faced with endless hordes, political scheming, and an angry neighborly baron who was dead set on conquering them. Knights answer his call for war. The powers that be above them stay lackadaisical and unwilling to help. Famine. Disease.

Did he mention ancient abominations planning world domination? Yeah. That too.

2. Litrpg Numbers (Light)

Grumpy Old Man Isekai'd to a Fantasy World.

In a future where martial arts are outlawed, Arthur, a grumpy, 65-year-old, washed-up martial arts master who once trained a multitude of students, takes a desperate gamble. Strapped for credits, he agrees to a radical consciousness transfer experiment.

He awakens in the fantasy world of Atheria, inhabiting the frail body of a librarian named Aren. This new world is brimming with magic and danger—a fact Arthur discovers when he inadvertently saves a Duke's daughter from attackers.

Drawn by an obsession with dangerous adventures and battles, he chooses to remain in Atheria as an explorer. Now hailed as a hero and thrust into the nobility, the once-celebrated martial artist, trapped in a weak body, must navigate treacherous political intrigue and blend his advanced Earth techniques with the mysterious power of Ether to survive in this perilous new world.

Release Schedule: Monday, Wednesday, Friday.

A soldier. A machine built for war. A man who never knew love, joy, or sorrow—only duty. His ruthless efficiency earned him the title Killing Machine. But when death finally came for him on the battlefield, he felt something unexpected.

Fear.

Then, darkness. And after that… rebirth.

Now, in a world of magic, swords, and adventure, he is reborn as Kael Ashford. Given a second chance—not just at life, but at something he never had before: emotions. Raised by a loving family, he slowly begins to understand the feelings he once thought useless with instructions from the mysterious system. But the scars of his past remain, and the road to becoming human is not so simple.

Without mana. Without overwhelming talent. Kael must carve his own path. With nothing but his system, ability and relentless discipline, he trains to survive in a world where the strong reign supreme.

But whispers of war stir in the shadows, and an ancient threat looms over the world. Kael will soon realize—emotionless or not, he may be the only one capable of standing against the storm.

A tale of growth, battle, and the struggle to find meaning in a second life.

Tantra always wanted to be a merchant. Her father had other plans.

Sent to the Serpent's Fang because of the dreams of a dying man, Tantra is forced to train and acclimate to the cultivators ways if she ever wants to make it back home.

Unfortunately for her, the journey is never so simple.

Release:M-W-F

In the kingdom of Rivenna, power flows from magic. The realm’s stability and military strength rest on the Gifts of its mages.

Quinten, the only child of a noble family, has always dreamed of the Gift awakening within him. But that dream fades with the deaths of his parents and the weight of being branded a traitor’s son. Fate, however, has other plans—and Quinten soon discovers his powers are far greater than he ever imagined.

When a mysterious sickness brought back from a failed campaign sweeps through Rivenna, devastating the mage population, Quinten’s hopes for a quiet life and escape from court politics begin to unravel. As tensions rise with a warlike neighboring kingdom and societal shifts unsettle Rivenna’s noble ranks, Quinten must decide what he’s willing to sacrifice to protect those he loves—or if the cost is simply too high.

As duty and power collide, the fate of a kingdom lies upon the choices of one young mage.

Tyler Smith wanted to kill a girl but fate had other plans.

Trapped in a broken body with a lost mind, he finds himself in the world between worlds, where he is offered a choice by the mysterious figure known as The Gamesmaster. Return to his body or fight for redemption in Cytheria, a game-world where levelling up meant survival and victory meant a new beginning.

Tyler chooses redemption. Thrown into the advanced tutorial, escaping death in one world to only face it in another, he is rescued by the Princess Alina, Leader of the Seven Sisters of Retribution and the most beautiful woman he had seen. She also happened to be the only woman he had seen.

As Tyler trains to become as powerful as he can be, dark secrets emerge and when Alina comes to him with whispers of betrayal and a call for aid, Tyler must risk everything to save her. Racing to save Alina from forces that wanted her dead and him just as much, and armed with an artifact that would as likely kill him as his enemies, Tyler needs to become the hero he never could be on Earth.

Everyone has a plan until death is staring them in the face. Ray found this out the hard way when he was given a choice. Save the granddaughter of the man who condemned his parents to death or get run over by a shrieking tide of fangs and claws.

Getting eviscerated by an army of living steel seemed more palatable. If only it was a real choice.

Stuck with a system that had only partially awakened, causing him more trouble than it was worth. He now had to navigate the world on hard mode. His only saving grace is the ability to empower his weapons. Despite everything working against him, he was determined to be the one to defeat the hordes once and for all.

All that and he still hadn’t mentioned the madman kidnapping and blackmailing literal dragons.

When cursed by Fate, embrace damnation.

In the magical world of Salvatica, Sins and Virtues are more than concepts of morality, they are given corporeal form.

Jules was born a Sin — the deadliest of them all. With his System set to unlock, he will soon learn if he is demon or saint.

Alongside his fox familiar Rukia, Jules will fight off cultists, militaries, other Sins and Virtues, and the many Factions of Salvatica. Will he fulfill his destiny as a Sin and summon the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, or will he rebel against Fate?

On second thought, why not both?

In the frozen streets of Halmstadt, Vidar, a disgraced young scribe, finds himself cast out, with no allies and nowhere left to turn. Forced into the city’s impoverished depths, where desperation runs as deep as hunger, Vidar experiences a bleak existence. Then, everything changes in a single, desperate moment when he taps into the forbidden power of a rune.

This one act sets off a chain of events that will alter his fate forever.

Rune work is the realm of the rune scribes' guild. Only trained scribes know their secrets, and for anyone else, using them is a death sentence. But what power do such laws hold over a man with nothing left to lose?

When an ancient beast from legend spreads its wings and rains fire over the city, Vidar realizes that his forbidden discovery may be the key to saving Halmstadt. With only the knowledge he’s scraped together and an unbreakable determination, he must master the runes and unlock their power to bring the city back from the edge of ruin.

Can Vidar uncover the truth behind the runes and forge his own destiny, or will he become just another forgotten name in Halmstadt’s bloody history?

"In this world, wherever there is light, there are always shadows."

Kaoru Takime is reborn into the brutal world of Naruto, not in Konoha or any of the great nations, but in the Land of Water - a place where violence decides everything. He remembers wathing Naruto series in his previous life, but in this one, he’s inherited something far greater than mere memories: the lost Kekkei Genkai of the Takime Clan.

With war and betrayal everywhere, Kaoru refuses to be just another tool for someone else’s ambitions. Takime clan has a goal - to create a new village, a place where outcasts and survivors can live free from the control of the great nations.

But the world won’t let them build without a fight. If Kaoru wants to change anything, if he wants to protect his clan and new family, he’ll have to cut down anyone who stands in his way.

❗What to expect:

1. 7-14 chapters releasing weekly! At least one every day. Each 2000+ words.
2. Slow Progression.
3. Lots of Fights, Drama, and Bloody Scenes.
4. MC isn’t heroic but forms deep bonds.
5. Romance may develop naturally over time, but there will be no harem.
6. The starting universe will already have slight differences from the original. For example, the Senju clan isn’t wiped out in my story. These changes make Azure Awakening a slightly AU version of Naruto.
7. There will be politics, intrigues, schemes and also clan building elements
8. I’ll respect canon characters and their personalities, but as the story progresses, I’ll introduce original elements and may alter or remove key events. The MC won’t be focused on preserving the original timeline.
9. I’ll involve readers through polls, letting you vote on key details.

The Tuscanians—a once prosperous race—are now an isolated tribe, cursed and exiled.

What they believed to be a mere witch hunt brought them a deadly, irreversible curse, pushing them into hiding. To protect their dwindling numbers and shield them from the world’s hatred, Chief Nelius Tuscan relocates his people to the new Tuscanvalle, near the mythical Lavalthon Lake—a paradise shrouded in wilderness. Before leaving to undo their curse, he entrusts his brother with preserving their bloodline and assigns a mysterious task to a young girl named Calla—one known only to them.

Generations pass. The world has forgotten its magic and the supernatural, turning a skeptical eye to it all. But Calla remains—now a wise elderly storyteller—when a chilling prophecy emerges: a child born at the start of winter will spell the end of the Tuscanian race. Desperation sets in as the tribe decides to sacrifice the child before their doom is sealed. But not everyone agrees. Lines blur between saviors and executioners as some fight to kill, and others fight to save the child.

And amidst it all, a stranger appears—unconnected to the Tuscanians, yet destined to become their harbinger of doom.

Times change, stakes rise, people come and go—but evil never rests. It grows stronger, more insidious, waiting to strike.

What to expect:

✅️ Rich lore and mythos with a fresh take on Gods and mortals

✅️ slow burn storytelling

✅️ immense world-building

✅️ multiple intricate arcs spanning multiple timelines

✅️ various perspectives, and plenty of drama.

Expect a long, slow build, but when it hits—it hits!

Content Warning:

This story contains disturbing graphic depictions of ritual sacrifice, extreme violence, and the ruthless cost of power. Magic in this world is far from harmonious or mystical—it is crafted by blood, suffering, and the consumption of others. Some wield it through purpose, others through sacrifice, but none without consequences.

If you want a story that does NOT shy away from the darkest aspects of ambition, survival, and control, read on. If not, this may not be for you.

A LitRPG that’s perfect for people who dream of an MC that’s just as confused as they are.

Ah, centenarians. The one demographic where you’re the likeliest to find mysterious figures with mentor potential and mortality risk aplenty.

Fortunately for the reborn Malwine, she likely got that status revoked the moment her spaceship to the Moon decided to take her on a trip to the next life instead, and now she understands her surroundings even less than the average toddler.

Once a family historian of great renown—in her head—she has been reduced to a confused child in an unfamiliar world, and for all she knows, the curse she’s inherited from her absent mother might be lying in wait to put her back in the grave. At least her extended—if erratic—family will ensure she survives long enough to do something about the ever-growing list of concerns hounding her… probably…

It’s any family historian’s dream, really. She’s overqualified to recover her new ancestors’ Legacies—which definitely exist—, even before accounting for how the system and this whole cultivation thing will undoubtedly aid her…

So long as she takes care of that whole ‘staying alive’ business first, of course. But that’s child’s play!

All she has to do is figure out why that ominous feeling keeps coming back. Is it the -99% attribute debuff? The gatekeeping elves? A bonus third option?

Wait, why is the sea above them?

What do you mean, her step-mother’s parents got eaten by the wav—?

What to expect: a nerfed-to-strong progression curve featuring a heavily modded, perspective-based system, and cultivation that takes the word’s connection to trees a bit too far.

Content warnings: Use of profanity, poorly described violence, mediocre parenting, and a cast afflicted by various degrees of moral myopia.

Reader warnings: MC reborn as a child, and roughly 30% of chapters follow alternate perspectives.

Alken is the Headsman of Seydis, an executioner tasked by the divine powers of his homeland to hunt traitors and warmongers in a war-afflicted land haunted by demons and the restless dead.

Once a paladin, this role ill suits him. Torn between principle, knightly oaths, and a tangled web of loyalties, Alken seeks an elusive redemption through his penance of blood. During his lonely battles through a broken land inhabited by time weary elves and brooding demigods, his journey becomes increasingly strange and personal.

________________________________________________________________________________

This is my first web serial! I hope everyone enjoys it. For trigger warnings, readers should beware that there are some heavy topics in here. When I think something might upset certain readers, I’ll put a warning in the author notes above a chapter. If I miss or overlook anything, feel free to let me know in the comments!

New chapters are released three times a week, usually after midnight CST on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

When the day of the apocalypse comes, Ashtoreth betrays Hell to fight for humanity.

After all, she never fit in with the other archfiends. She was always too optimistic, too energetic, too... nice .

She was supposed to study humanity to help her learn to destroy it. Instead, she fell in love with it. She knows that Earth is where she really belongs.

But as she tears her way through the tutorial, recruiting allies to her cause, she quickly realizes something strange: the humans don’t trust her.

Sure, her main ability is [Consume Heart] . But that doesn’t make her evil—it just means that every enemy drops an extra health potion!

Yes, her [Vampiric Archfiend] race and [Bloodfire Annihilator] class sound a little intimidating, but surely even the purehearted can agree that some things should be purged by fire!

And [Demonic Summoning] can’t be all that evil if the ancient demonic entity that you summon takes the form of a cute, sassy cat!

It may take her a little work, but Ashtoreth is optimistic: eventually, the humans will see that she’s here to help. After all, she has an important secret to tell them:

Hell is afraid of humanity.

Is it aliens? Demons? Alternate dimensions?

Black holes are rippling into existence around the globe, and Lee Castillo’s panic attacks are back.

Just this morning, he’d been practicing how to tell his ex-best friend and flatmate Axel that he was potentially thinking about maybe moving out sometime soon or something.

And then the world as everyone knew it ended.

~System Loaded. Dungeons Active~

Now, Axel's personality has flipped on its head, all comms are down, and there's a foreign desire compelling Lee to enter the Dungeons despite his overwhelmingly lacklustre system stats.

As he delves into the secrets of the Dungeons alongside his growing party, Lee must confront both his past and future to divine what he truly wants.

Inspired by ORV, The S-Classes I Raised, SSS-Class Suicide Hunter, Survival of a Sword King, Doom Breaker, and Dungeon Reset, Dungeon Hunter is basically my response to other MCs and their ride-or-die besties never canonically falling for each other (as well as realising I can make all my character queer as hell).

Seth is transported into a world of Chaos and Order. Blessed with the Blood mage and Shepherd classes on his first day. He's soon swept into a prophecy to lead the Satyrs to new pastures. But the path is long and treacherous and Seth must protect them from beasts, daemons and worst of all, his fellow man. Slavers, that wish only to take his tribe and profit from their suffering. With his flock of tamed monsters to help him and the blessings of a Goddess, he might just make it.

The Unusual Shepherd is a ferocious struggle through a sadistic fantasy world. Light on the stats, no Harem, slow burn progression.

This is my first novel, which I mostly pants, so be gentle with me.

Jin-woo woke up strapped to a bed like a mini Hannibal Lecter. It wasn’t even his body. Now he was stuck inside an abandoned hospital, twenty five stories tall, without a single other building within sight of the massive forest. His only source of companionship were the denizens of an F- ranked dungeon.

Except said denizens were four feet tall at the shoulders, massive claws for legs, fangs the size of daggers, and a proclivity for extreme violence at first sight. And also rats. Surgically enhanced rats!

He couldn’t blame anyone, it was his fault he was here. Attempting to mentally connect to the strongest self-reasoning, self-aware Ai to ever exist might not have been the wisest decision, but he couldn’t let Demina turn into a genocidal monstrosity. He had to do something! Right?

[Congratulations!]

[Battle Concluded!]

[Experience Gained - 5xp]

[Experience required to reach the next level - 2000!]

Did Jin-woo mention it was nearly impossible to level up? Fighting four foot tall giant rats by the boat-load should be worth more than 5xp!

What to expect

- M/W/F Schedule.

- Litrpg Numbers (Light).

- Dungeon Diving (Think Daggerfall, Massive)!

- Character Interaction and Party Building.

Dania Ellis has faced warzones and Emergency Room chaos—but nothing prepared her for Drop Night.

Once every ten years, the gods give a deck of cards to a chosen few. These new “deckbearers” are capable of great magical feats, and are the top of every food chain, both metaphorically and literally.

As a combat veteran and ER nurse, Dania knows what it takes to fight for a better life. She’s worked tirelessly to build a future for herself and her orphaned nephew, Jake. But everything changes on Jake’s fourteenth birthday when he receives a Drop Night deck—straight from Nyx, the goddess of night.

The deck grants Jake power, but it also paints a target on his back. Suddenly, he’s a deckbearer hunted by forces that would do anything to possess his special deck of cards. But those hunting him and others like him failed to consider one important thing: Jake may be orphaned, but he’s not alone…

Because Dania will do anything to protect her kid. Survival isn’t just an option—it’s a promise.

Fast-paced, gripping, and full of heart, this story is in the same universe as Demon Card Enforcer, and perfect for fans of All the Skills and Goblin Summoner.

Completed Story Coming Soon!

When an older boy is lost in the forest, Oli is the one who gets the blame. Though he is truthful about what he saw, it’s hard to make others believe him when they are lying to themselves. His parents want to hide their own secrets, and his tribe wants to protect itself by rewriting the past.

Oli strikes out alone to find Ingo and put an end to the rumours whispered behind his back. He embarks on an adventure that forces him to question everything he knew. As he unearths the secrets of his family and his own life, he finds they are connected to the history of the forest and the future of his tribe.

Meanwhile, beyond the borders of the isolated forest, the cunning leader of a godless republic has designs of conquest. Advocate Demetos has waited his whole life for an opportunity to defeat the Western King. The final ingredient he requires lies in a mysterious forest of magical creatures and primitive tribes. But as he arrives to claim his prize, something else is stirring at the heart of the ancient woodland.

What to expect:

A large fantasy world with multiple POV characters, but rooted initially in one familiar setting which gradually broadens out.

Character development which sees young characters grow in confidence and strength.

Relationships and friendships which evolve as the story moves forward.

He Brought a Gun to a Sword Fight.

A life was tempered in the forge of struggle—an orphan fighting to survive, a soldier battling an alien plague, a protector who gave his life for those too weak to defend themselves.

But death wasn’t the end of his war.

Reborn in a world of immortal cultivators and ancient secrets, Jin Shu finds himself as the eldest son of the Jin family, masters of runesmithing. Armed with his modern military knowledge and an arsenal of runic-enhanced weapons, he’s ready to take on anyone who dares threaten his new life.

This second life offers more than just battles. It’s an opportunity to experience parts of existence he never thought possible: the warmth of family, the joy of raising an adorable tiger cub who sees him as her father, even love.

Now that he has felt the warmth of love, nothing in heaven or earth will stand in his way. Be it God, Buddha, or Demon, all will come to know the wrath behind the smoking barrel of his gun.

Jack thought he’d finally escaped the life of monster-filled dungeons and high-stakes magic. After spending his youth in the Otherworld - a realm of myth, danger, and boundless magic - he clawed his way home to Earth. But what he returns to is far from the world he left behind. Earth has changed, and so has he.

Now, dungeons are invading his world, tearing through reality itself. Over his first quiet cup of coffee and a slice of his favorite pie, Jack realizes that his fight isn’t over. Earth is in the crosshairs of the very forces he thought he’d left behind, and only his hard-won skills as a legendary Dungeon Master can keep the encroaching apocalypse at bay.

Armed with his custom-built deck of cards and a pair of enchanted dice, Jack has to navigate Earth’s new reality - a game of survival where ancient powers and modern threats collide. From scratch, he’ll forge alliances and reclaim his strength. After all, he’s a veteran adventurer, an Ex Dungeon Master. And no one knows the art of dungeon-crawling like Jack does.

What to Expect: A fast-paced, GameLitRPG adventure where dungeon incursions turn Earth into a battlefield of monsters, loot, and perilous quests. With RPG mechanics, strategic deckbuilding, and a gritty yet humorous tone, Jack brings his otherworldly expertise to Earth’s defense - with every skill earned, dice roll counted, and ally forged under fire.

This Story Is About: Jack - a seasoned Dungeon Master torn from one world and thrust back into another, forced to defend a home he barely recognizes. His goal? Master the dungeon apocalypse and reclaim the world he sacrificed everything to return to.

Additional Info: For fans of reverse isekai, RPG mechanics, and an anti-hero who’s seen it all, Dungeon Ex Master offers relentless action, tactical deckbuilding, and a protagonist with a dry wit and deeper resolve than he’s willing to admit. Prepare for a dungeon apocalypse like no other.

A description, huh? How do I even do this?

...

Fuck it. I'll improvise.

The Sayama forest, birthplace of mystery and folklore. No one who has ever trespassed into these unholy grounds has ever returned...

So, of course a dumbass child will try their luck there!

Follow Stella as she has to survive and make a life for herself through an entire civilization of monstrous creatures. She might find friendly canines, a superhero, or a snake-fox creature who's a total drama queen!

Of course, it's not all flowers that will pave her path...

The entire world has been taken over by hordes of zombies. Of course there's no profit in that. So why do heroes keep getting summoned to this world to try to save it anyway? Their money is worthless.

At least that's what Finley, the roving tinker sales elf* finds out when the pantheon keeps summoning heroes into his path to save the world, all he wants is the quiet life. When the horde comes calling, you had better have an escape plan.

Heroes?

In this economy?

"In a reality forced on him twisted by fate, redemption comes at a deadly cost."

Alexis watched, powerless, his friend killed by the devil's claws. Above them, the sky shattered, revealing a monstrous, titanic eye and the world plunged into darkness.

Alexis awoke in a pitch-black cave, his past just scattered fragments of pain and half-remembered faces. Worse yet, a monstrous creature snacking on him, gnawing at his flesh as he struggled to remember who he was.

Now, haunted by fractured memories of a distant past and family which came back every time he battled to death, Alexis stumbles back into a grim reality drenched in blood, death, and monsters, all for a way back.

What to expect:

[+] Slow-burn dark progression fantasy, with an awesome diverse power system.

[+] Strong MC that slowly finds his way to absolute power.

[+] MC is male. There are no romance plots planned for the first few books and ofc no harem.

[+] Most Important of all he has a kitten overlord later in the story.

Welcome to the island of washed-up weirdos.

Russell Murphy, a professional mascot with a history of bad decisions and wild nights, wakes up stranded on a beautiful island wearing nothing but an oversized pair of purple mascot leggings and a strange gadget strapped to his wrist.

Unable to remember how he got there, he racks it up as drunken escapade gone wrong. But when the gadget on his wrist introduces game-like mechanics to his very survival, complete with crafting, leveling up, and deadly wildlife, Russell realizes he’s got bigger problems than his hangover.

Armed with zero skills, questionable instincts, and pants too fuzzy for their own good, Russell must fight off vicious animals and even more vicious castaways to uncork the island's mysteries and get the heck out. The tides are turned against him, but thankfully, he's got SPUNK!

Raku, a battle-hardened mercenary, never expected a rescue mission to save someone from a sinister cult to lead them to a succubus—wingless, broken, and starving. Bound together by fate, the two must navigate a volatile connection built on trust, desire, and vulnerability.

As their mutual hunger—both physical and emotional—pulls them closer, Raku and the succubus explore the transformative power of intimacy while battling the scars of their pasts. Wingless is a sensual tale of love, healing, and rediscovering yourself in the arms of someone just as broken.

A gilded palace. A forbidden truth. A kingdom in the realm of Interia trembling on the edge of revolution. Born into the role of a delicate princess, Adair knows he is anything but—and his family’s crushing expectations ignite a rage that soon engulfs the royal household in blood. Forced from the palace and presumed dead, he reemerges as the vengeful leader of a growing rebellion, bent on toppling the very throne that once held him captive.

Inspired by Vladimir Cauchemar’s EP “ORATORES, BELLATORES, LABORATORES,” this sweeping tale of identity, upheaval, and grim triumph follows Adair’s bloody path from banished prince to crowned king—at a cost that will haunt him forever.

Staff Sargent Hudson didn't know what the hell an " isakai " was, but he already hated it.

He and his team of elite Delta Force Special Forces operators fell through the cracks of reality into a world where they shouldn't be. A world of magic, spells and the deepest of darkness, the Americans have arrived.

They do not come bearing fig leaves. They come bearing the flag of the United States of America.

The right man at the wrong place can make all the difference in the world. In a world of secrets, where nothing makes sense, the damned must march on. The duty of a soldier. Welcome to Task force Wizard.

When a Great House falls, chaos follows.

Rowan watched as a betrayal from within destroyed everything he’d ever known, and there was nothing he could do to stop it. His home burned as an Archdemon ravaged their lands, summoned into the very seat of their power by forces unknown. Unawakened—without access to the System and its boons—Rowan was left as the only survivor of a magical lineage spanning millennia.

Resigned to a life of obscurity and bitterness, he could only watch as the other Great Houses carved up their lands and fought over the carcass that was once his home. Yet in the end, that obscurity saved him.

On his twentieth name-day, Rowan finally Awakened.

Granted a [Trait] of unknown power, a [Title] of unimaginable weight, and an [Item] of untold worth, he leaves the dangerous north and takes the first step on his Path. But even on the other side of the Kingdom, the echoes of his past linger. The passes his family defended were left unguarded for too long. And now, the ever encroaching Wilds threaten more than just the north.

*Follow Rowan’s story as he attempts to master his magic, fight against the largest monster surge in generations, and hopefully, uncover the truth behind the fall of his House. *

A fantastical portal-fantasy for Progression fans!

Ben Crawford never expected to wake up in total darkness, trapped in a universe where runes shape reality and knowledge is the most dangerous power of all.

Magic isn’t just energy here—it’s history, war, and something far older than the factions battling for control. The Strikers wield raw might, the Arcanists master forgotten spells, and the Guardians enforce ancient laws. But the real secret? Runes hold the key to something greater, something no one fully understands.

Thrust into this dangerous world filled with deadly monsters, Ben stumbles upon a power he can barely comprehend. One tied to an ancient legacy humanity was never meant to remember. With every step, every challenge he faces, he unlocks more than just magic—he unravels the truth behind his own existence.

From deadly spirit realms to a grand tournament where the strongest claim their place in history, Ben is forced to fight, learn, and adapt. But as his knowledge grows, so does the threat that lurks in the shadows. Someone—or something—wants the past buried, and if Ben digs too deep, he might not live to uncover the final secret.

Because humanity was never supposed to be part of this story.

Runebound: Rise of the Paladin is a gripping portal fantasy where courage unlocks power, runes reveal lost truths, and knowledge itself can shatter worlds.

He’s going to inch his way up to the top, gods be damned...

Reincarnated as a worm!? Taka was about to graduate university, excited to live an easy life until he was unceremoniously summoned to another world to become a hero, but was instead turned into a worm after he pissed off a god.

With mysterious forces working from the shadows and danger lurking at every turn, will he be able to live his best life as a worm in this wonky world?

Out of Retirement. Out of Options. Out of Fucks to Give.

Retirement was supposed to be simple: a quiet apartment near the Saginaw River, maybe a hobby or two. Blake Connover survived decades of military and mercenary work to earn that peace. Too bad it only lasted two weeks.

When a mysterious wormhole tears open above the river and drags Blake into the unknown, retirement becomes the least of his worries. Stranded on an alien world and fused with an advanced bio-tech suit he barely understands, Blake has to adapt fast. The suit's real owners want it back, the locals aren't exactly friendly, and the universe is a lot bigger—and stranger—than he ever imagined.

From starfighter dogfights to cosmic cultivation, Blake's retirement plan is officially out the window. Good thing he never really liked sitting still anyway.

I am rewriting this baby. Please come back later .

The story i will write will be about airships, mechanics and pilot school, and boring social/politics with some adventuring going wrong.
