The world is brought to ruins with the sudden emergence of supernatural beings and trials to destroy humanity as a whole, for their corrupted pleasure. ... more>>

"The only hope eh?" muttered a woman with short white hair, as she sat leaning against a wall painted with blood.
The lance sticking through her stood tall and proud. It irritated her.

She looked at her broken arm and then at the piles of corpses of short green creatures with pointy ears and noses.

She chuckled at the irony. She was told she was the only hope and yet here she was, dying to a mere thousand goblins.

Her ears perked as she heard footsteps. Through the musty tunnel across her came a hooded man.
He was tall, and had a long beard, the only part of his face she could see.
He had bandages wrapped around his hands and was covered in piles of cloth armor.
He had a large bow in his hand, but he didn't have an arrow in sight.

She once again chuckled at the appearance of the strange man as her painful grunts grew quieter and quieter and to silence.

As someone who got easily bored, there were a lot of times I’d given up a Gacha because of their money-hungry mechanics. The feeling of grinding didn’t feel the same when you lost your love of it.... more>>

As someone who had enough time to play and money to use, I’d played a total of 200 Gacha games over the years. Each one had been abandoned for similar reasons as the other.

“The characters were too dull.” “The novelty had wore off.” “Grinding is a pain.” “I don’t like feeling my characters are incomplete without their signature weapon.” “The story is getting a bit too complicated.” Etc. One reason or another.

That was until the last game I played.

Despite it being perfect, I dropped it after my team had reached a certain level. No longer curious about playing the Gacha, I abandoned the perfectly good game I had no gripes about.

That was until I ended up reincarnated, but not as the protagonist of that Gacha… No. I ended up becoming a B Rank! The weakest of rarity character that with ‘Insect Transformation’ as an ability.

“Sorry, you are under my protection from now on.” The protagonist said while cuffing me.

Yup, I’m definitely screwed now… <<less

Updates:
Expect one chapter per day, although frequency may vary to once a week depending on my schedule and mood.

Notes:
This story contains R-18 themes and includes clichés typical of fantasy novels: demons, beastmen, foxgirls, etc. The MC undergoes subtle character development, there is village building, and the mystery surrounding the MC's powers. The first ten chapters lack depth and richness, or simply put, are underdeveloped and will receive a full revision in the near future. Feel free to drop this and leave. I have no plans on monetizing this book whatsoever; I just write for fun, to materialize my imaginations, and to stave off my boredom. <<less

"All right, boys and girls, quit sucking your ma's teats. It's high time we bloody earn our paychecks!"... more>>

Born in times of turmoil, orphaned at a young age, and raised amongst rowdy sellswords, young Reinhardt Edelstein joined the mercenary trade as well when he grew up.

When misfortune finally caught up with them, and the mercenary company he had been part of fell into an ambush and was decimated, he survived by chance, along with a few others.

Then he found the baton of responsibility passed on to his hand, as the adopted nephew of the late captain.

Stuck behind enemy lines, with only the tattered remnants of the once proud company around him, he strived to do his best, to rebuild the company to its former glory... Should they survive the current conflict.

Would he succeed in etching his name in the annals of history? Or would he end up as a mere footnote instead?

Only time will tell…

Chapters will range from 1-2k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday.

(A What If Story)
A Nikke, who is known first and foremost as an assassin felt that you a commander of Nikkes needs to practice... more>> role play? In this branching story, D of Perilous Siege asks you to role play with her in order to hone you skills as an actor. This short series will be a simple what if scenario if things got interesting the longer the role play went on. This is my interpretation based off of events based on the "Kill the Lord" event in Nikke: Goddess of Victory. In this story, D and the commander stumble upon a dangerous series of events that involves trafficking of Nikkes, government corruption, and the true essence of what it means to be a human living in the world of Nikke. <<less

Sacrificed as a child along with her family by demonic cultists, Reimia lives out a cycle of tragedy, survival, and revenge.... more>>

On her path to revenge, Rei fails over and over, dying to then be reborn in different times and places, gaining allies and advantages with each cycle... Only to lose them to the cruelty of time. Because all things die... Except her and the man who started it all.

-------------------------------------------------------------

- What to expect:
- Shadowbane is a long story about revenge.
- Reimia is very weak at the start.
- First person POV. I know some people don't like this, so here is your warning.
- Long chapters. Average 4-6k words, with some being close to 7k.
- New writer, figuring it out as I go. Hopefully I'm able to entertain you! <<less

For the longest time, Aideen Fiachna had only one prescient wish; to be the daughter her parents could take pride in.... more>>

The idea was a tall order, especially as her father stood at the head of the Templar order, and her grandfather as the Pope. However, she endeavored to try nonetheless.

Yet fate had a different path in store for her.

For all her efforts, all her best laid plans, were but the broken off crumbs of 'one day'. That day, she was brutally slain by a vile, accursed undead being.

Though, not even restful eternity awaited her in death.

She awakened inside a coffin. Her coffin. During her own funeral wake. Discovering, to her horror, that she had risen. Not somehow resurrected, no, but back in the form of that most hated of beings--the curse of undeath.

What will fate deal her next?

Chapters will range from 1-2.5k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday.

---------------------------------------

Expect:

-Character progression in a journey of self discovery that spanned the ages

-World building

-Tragedy and Comedy in roughly equal measures

-Occasional action

-A lighthearted tale. This story will be a good bit grimmer than my previous one

In a twisted version of the Old West, where Native American fables come to life, the land is teeming with blight and cessation. Skinwalkers, Bakwas, Urayuli, and even the dreaded Wendigo roam freely, constantly terrorizing humanity. In this unforgiving landscape, survival becomes the supreme dream, luxury an impossibility.... more>>

But hope lies in Ether, an eccentric substance that defies reason, and Sigils, granting individuals extraordinary abilities. So, as men and women from the burgeoning East venture into the treacherous West, they must navigate the nightmares that lurk within the wilderness and the horrors from above, below, and within.

Survival becomes a battle for the mind, body, and soul. Each step must be taken lightly, lest they fall prey to a grim fate—a forgotten corpse, a demon's feast, or the plaything of ancient and incomprehensible beings.

Fools tread where angels fear to gaze, yet not all fools let themselves crumble. Some are simply too stubborn to break.

____________________________________

What to expect

Fights - This world is a violent one, so expect gore, killing, and plenty of combat. But that's not all there is.

Adventure - A vast world that is centered on the Wild West and that period of technology mixed with the supernatural in every aspect from guns to the government.

Progression - Both character-wise and power-wise throughout the story. This does not apply to just the MC. Anyone can grow. Even enemies.

Power System - I've tried my best to make a unique system with a bit of mystery to it. It takes effort, introspection, and experience to grow. And... a little murder. Powers are complex, vast, and have their own restrictions. Oh, and Gods might as well be eldritch abominations for the most part.
____________________________________

Also, in case any are curious, most creatures, monsters, demons, and the like are based on native American and just American folklore/mythology in general. If you are ever curious about where something comes from, just ask in the comments, and I'll let you know.

"Six severed Wills, their blessing now a curse.
"Six mighty rulers, in conflict they traverse.
"Six weeping armaments, blood they doth embrace.
"And when six converge as one, a Mother's lostward wish shall finally take place."... more>>

The land is fractured. The people are divided. Humanity's creator has perished long ago; now, they are doomed to stagnate under the celestial expanse, nations waging war on each other in a desperate attempt to hold dominion over what little authority remains.

Yet, not all is forsaken. A Comet has been birthed by the earth and sky. Their descent brings forth a rare boon long thought lost to the ravages of despair: hope. And so the forces of the world begin to move in earnest, bewitched by the promise of a brighter morrow.

One is a winged King, their Will confined to the gilded cage that is duty.

One is a malicious Corvid, gaze transfixed to the horizon whispering of conquest.

And one is a nameless Knight. Forgotten. Slumbering. Ready to fulfill its purpose.

Six Wills. Six rulers. Six armaments.

When six converge as one, humanity shall finally reach out to the Stars.

This is a rewrite of an already completed novel that finished running in December of 2023. It is not on Scribblehub, rather a website called RoyalRoad under the name of Aegis: The First Attempt. If you want to peruse it while waiting for the new chapters to come out, please feel free, but I first began writing it while very inexperienced with prose, grammar, and pacing in general. Thus, the quality of it isn't as polished as I would prefer it to be, so I'm doing a full rewrite to really bring this world of mine the love and care it deserves.

Updates: Wednesday and Sunday

I would also like to give a warm thank you to HWPerfidy for creating the cover art for this novel, and to Wong40k, GabbieMok, and X-luminoux-x for the art/mixing in subsequent volumes. I am spoiled to receive such help. <<less
