With his father dead and his brother inheriting the earldom, Braydon sets out to inherit the family’s neglected title, Viscount of Cliforge, the only land of the Kingdom on the other side of the Brimstone Mountains. ... more>>

His new lands are on the border that is held peaceful by an uneasy truce and the same lands that claimed his father’s life on the battlefield.

With no reputation in noble society and no military might to speak of he will be a long way from challenging his brother whose land is some of the most prosperous in the empire, and has the backing of their younger brother, who has the smarts to raise their position even further.

Will he become another casualty to the lands that have already claimed his father, or become something more as he climbs his way to prominence?

At least he can be sure that his brother would never see him rise peacefully, and the neighbouring Grand Duke desires the last territory of the kingdom on the eastern side of the mountains. His position is anything but stable, he will do anything to change that and build his realm.

A prince sent into exile, without the means to fight back.... more>>

A young man trapped in an unfair world, without the status to bring about change.

Combined, they will have both means and status.

Armed with advanced knowledge from a strange world, will Prince Corco be able to cut through the injustice, regain his birthright and bring enlightenment to the country of his ancestors to create a paradise of true peace, equality and prosperity?

“Okay, first step: Let’s make some brandy.”

…that’s a maybe then.

Hermit’s Note: My take on the kingdom building genre, which often suffers from weak characters, low stakes and contrived challenges. Buildup will be slow, with Book 1 focused on business managment, Book 2 focused on a battle for succession and only Book 3 getting into the depths of kingdom building. There’s plenty of inventions before that point though, so if you’re here for the clever use of modern tech you’ll find quite a bit even early on.

Garth Daniels is a down on his luck handyman in a quiet little town in the middle of America when our universe is co-opted into a war between an unstoppable race of reality-hopping monsters that feeds on the flesh of living creatures, and a conglomeration of thousands of realities, nested inside each other like a matroska doll.... more>>

We're the new layer.

These monsters, the Kipling, can only be defeated in a reality with very specific physics, otherwise they are unstoppable, and so Earth's universe has been assimilated to give us a fighting chance.

Garth must set aside everything that he knows, and think fast to adapt to the new laws of nature if he wants to survive.

What would you do if you got summoned to another world without your consent?... more>>

How about... Getting summoned by a dark cult and at the same time, losing something within you that will make you question if you are still yourself?

Casimir Kismet is just your regular weeb who has a hobby of cosplaying, has a loving adorable little sister, supportive parents, and friends with a common hobby as him.

An ordinary but content life if he must say.

But, not anymore.

Everything changed when he got involved in a disastrous dilemma of getting summoned to another world by a federation of dark cultists and turning him into something he never had imagined he would become. At the same time, he obtained a skill that gave him the ability to copy skills by just seeing them cast.

Changing his life forever.

Every coin has two sides, there is no such thing as pure evil or absolute righteousness. And if one is evil or righteous, it cannot be easily recognized.

But, the real question is, which side would you let come out the most?

His CONQUEST is about to begin.

This is not a story of a hero. You have been warned.

Not everything is actually what they seem. Do not be fooled.

And most of all...

Don't show him your skills. <<less

Going into beta phase, Jack Hunt strangely receives an invite from an old friend. Not knowing what he’s doing, he gets absorbed in the virtual world as he founds his own village, meets new people and kills mystical beasts. Slowly he unravels the truth about this so-called ‘virtual world’...

This is a story that I'm working on after getting inspiration from reading 'The Lords Empire' in particular, then various other Wuxia/Cultivation novels I have read previously.

This will be a novel that takes quite some time to get anywhere, meandering in a way with little direction and, I'll state this now as some people have commented on it, will not feature sex.
Sex will be present eventually, but there's a reason I do not have it tagged with smut/adult/sexual content. (Lord's Empire didn't have any until chapter 500ish)

My first proper attempt at writing a long story and learning/feeling as I go so expect a rough story, not high in quality nor much having editing, so if you can read it thank you!

Amara stood upon the fields, watching the dust rise as the demons made their advance in the distance. Behind her stood the mortals, whom she for the last millenium was told were nothing but fodder. Just like herself.
A smile grew on her face as the wind cooled her lips, wetted by the only one who thought otherwise.
And Amara was going to prove to one and all that her support had not been a wasted effort.
She raised her arm, giving the command she had waited a thousand years to give.
The blue sky began glittering, and like falling stars, her hidden ace made their arrival known.

Born into prestige and gifted with talent, Pascal was a promising officer cadet whose deeds caught even the King's gaze. At the mere age of twenty, he had everything a young, ambitious man could need to begin a promising career.... more>>

Except his habitual arrogance had destroyed every opportunity of a close friendship outside his political marriage.

Seeking a companion who meets his protracted list of requirements, Pascal decided to craft the 'perfect spell' for the upcoming familiar ceremony. If those around him were not fit to accompany his genius, then he would summon a best friend through his own hands -- one that was mature, intelligent, knowledgeable, bright, and cute as well.

He received far more than he bargained for... and in turn, so did the shifting geopolitical power balance of his world.

Disclaimer:

This is not a power-fantasy or the usual 'feel-good' story you might find on this site. If you feel that a protagonist should never lack agency (especially in early story) or make compromises due to difficult circumstances, then this fiction is probably not for you.

Daybreak is a story that delves into real world sociological/psychological subjects and explores many topics of gray morality. I wrote it because I like stories that makes me think more about the world around us, not to detach myself from reality.

Some aspects you can expect based on the tags include:
- [Kingdom Building]: political drama, geopolitical/geoeconomic strategy
- [Army Building]: massive battles featuring in-depth planning, combined arms, and operational logistics
- [Magical Technology]: how magic changes the sociotechnological evolution of civilization in a high-fantasy world
- [Genderbender]: exploration of gender identity, gender role, and discussion of social expectations
- [Identity Crisis]: someone translated into a whole different world having to rebuild their identity and life aims

38 years old and divorced. No real friends. I had been working tirelessly day in and day out in a logistic company to forget about my lackluster life. ... more>>

I was working in the office until late night when I fell asleep on my desk. Suddenly, I was in white space. Weird. It was not a room. It had no wall, ceiling, and floor. I couldn't move my body. The image of my body was projected in front of me in 3D. This looked like when I was creating and customizing a new character in my Playstation 5 games.

"Hello? Is anybody here?" I was able to shout but no one answered. To my surprise, words appeared beside the 3D image of my body like a game tutorial. It said, "Please adjust the physical traits of your body". This was exactly like the games I often played. But how to adjust? I raised my hand but my edge of my hand went through my 3D body. It appeared the image is 3 dimension but it had no physical form. When i touch the "Tutorial words", a list of parameters appeared beside my 3D body. It really looked like a PS2 game!

Skin
Height
Weight
Hair
Eyes
Eyebrows
Mouth
Nose

I was an Asian with light brown skin and average height. Could i alter my physical appearance with this? I touched the "Nose" feature, my nose on my 3D image became more pointing like an European. The more i touched, the longer it became until my face looked like some weird foreigner. How to shorten my nose? Using my finger, I tried to scroll to left like when I playing game. That nose became shorter. So that's the mechanism!

I didn't want to substantially alter my appearance so I just altered my nose to be just slightly pointing but still looked Asian. I then brightened my brown skin to lighter brown. My height was originally 176cm, I altered to 186cm as I had always wanted to be taller. I raised my weight according to my new height. In overall, my 3D body still looked Asian.

Now, my hair. As 38 years old, I had a balding hair escpecially at the top. I touched the 'hair" word. Every time I touched, my hair style changed. From long curly black to long straight blonde hair. I choose the long black hair as that's my appearance during my teenage days. Finally, I touched the "Age" word. Number "38 appeared with "Minus" sign at its left and "Plus" at its right side. I touched the "Minus" until the number turned to 14. My 3D image became youthful ! <<less

What to expect:

This story has slow progress at the beginning. You can expect to see multiple points of view from different characters. While it has elements of kingdom-building, it takes time before we see this happen. The early 100 chapters aren't focused on magic. The main character starts off weak but becomes stronger over time. The plot may contain some cliches. <<less

Blood for the Blood God! For the Dark Prince! Rot and Ruin! Plans within plans!

A man gets thrown into the original world of his favourite game as his Day 1 bug-exploit character by unanimous agreement of the Four Chaos Gods who, in their boredom, demand little more from him than entertainment.

Now Erik must survive in the unforgiving northern wastes of Norsca where the tribes will as gladly fight each other as work together to raid their southern and western neighbours to obtain food, supplies and thralls. All for surviving the bitter winters and to earn the favour of their Dark Gods.

He must fight, kill, raid & conquer, for the God of Blood & Honour is never at peace.
He will seek excitement, pleasure & perfection, for the Dark Prince of Pleasure is never satisfied.
He must persevere, bring stability to his realm and bring assured destruction to his foes, for the Plague Father is inevitable.
And he shall hunt for artefacts of great power and learn the wisdom hidden in ancient tomes, for the God of Change hungers for power.
