Every great story needs an author.... more>>

Samuel Bragg was a fairly ordinary human. He lived in a simple home, and he did simple work. Born in a fishing village on the coast, he experienced a good life. But he wanted more. So when his chance came, he leapt for it, not knowing just how much more he was about to get. With a fallen god calling to him in his dreams, and the hint of an unnatural, dark plot forming in the distance, he soon learns that the extraordinary comes with a steep cost.

The story of the legendary traveler, the all-knowing servant of the God of Knowledge, the greatest author, cartographer, and collector of magicks; the story of Samuel Bragg, is a truly extraordinary tale. But it all starts with a normal man, in a normal home, in a normal village, with a normal job.

Note: This story is a re-write of my previous trilogy (Tome of the Body, Tome of the Mind, Tome of the Soul) and will also be available on RoyalRoad and Reddit. <<less

Within a desolate realm, where discarded worlds were stitched together, a rupture tore open, releasing a small child into this fragmented expanse.... more>>

Above him, the sky revealed three eerie moons, while an ominous black mass loomed ominously in their wake.

Disoriented and engulfed by a putrid stench, the child awakened amidst a swamp, its twisted trees groaning under an oppressive haze.

In the distance, the echoing caws of crows intensified the sense of foreboding. To the child's bewilderment, a haunting figure emerged, laboring behind a cart laden with lifeless bodies.

Fear and confusion grip the child's heart as he began to grapple with the enigma of his own existence. Who was he, and what dire fate led him to this grim landscape? The grinning figure drew closer, exacerbating the boy's terror.

Unbeknownst to him, his journey would unveil a profound transformation—an ascent to become the embodiment of fear itself, or perhaps... a beacon of hope amidst the encroaching darkness.

Never underestimate the guy who has so much Mana it should kill him...... more>>

Nathaniel's bus ride was supposed to be just another boring commute. But now, he, 23 fellow passengers, and a corgi named Biscuit are stuck in a "Hell difficulty" tutorial, battling monsters and leveling up.

Easy difficulty, anyone can handle. Normal difficulty, you've got to put up a fight to get by. Hard difficulty is where only the tough ones last. And Hell? That's where you have to be a bit out of your mind!

With his terrifying talent for mana manipulation, Nathaniel decides to invest every stat point into mana. Attribute imbalance be damned. It will either kill him before the monsters and his enemies can, or turn him into one of the most powerful beings within the system.

"It is said he walked through fire and rain"... more>>

Ramor-Tai monastery is the haven of the Wasteland - the place where heroic Cultivators can hone their skills through meditation and martial tournaments. For decades this place has stood as a bastion of humanity against the storms of war that threaten to engulf what remains of the world, though the Disciples of each Sect have agreed to a strict pact of non-interference with worldly affairs.

So when a man made of steel comes to knock at their doors one morning, he is met with shock and suspicion.

Jade-skinned beauties? Godlike powers? The ability to command the heavens themselves? These common dreams were not the desires of the machine-man. All he cared about was learning, understanding, and harnessing his Qi. All he wanted was an answer to the question: "Do I have a soul?"

His name was XJ-V. This is the tale of his legend.

For this cyborg, power is just an upgrade away. ... more>>

Emmett was used to being caught between college and his engineering internship, but when he gets caught between a powerful hero and an even stronger villain, he becomes collateral damage. Instead of dying, he wakes up a cyborg. Turns out his boss wasn’t just an eccentric inventor, and the old man just gave him a shining opportunity to be a hero.

Except that’s just the beginning, and things are about to get a lot more complicated.

His boss has his own agenda. The boss’s daughter has her own power armor. His roommate works for an evil corporation.

And Emmett is small fry. Just a Class 1 hero.

Superheroes aren’t just masks—some work for corporations, or for the government and the military, and even as mercenaries in wars. Shadowy cabals pull the strings of hero and villain alike. The city of Belport might be peaceful for now, but most of the world is in turmoil. If Emmett is going to have any chance at making a difference, he needs to get stronger. A lot stronger.

How much of his humanity will he hold onto and how much will he trade away?

In 2045, with almost everything and everyone connected to the network, the trust in its security and reliability is paramount for the society to function. Many agencies throughout the world spend significant resources to keep the citizens and properties safe in this environment. In Japan, Section 9 of Public Security works to investigate cyber criminals and prevent cyber threats.... more>>

Esaki Purin dreamed of joining Section 9 and protecting people since one of the members of Section 9 saved her in her childhood. But she never expected that her first case on the job would be to investigate her own murder while coming to terms with not being human anymore.

The FF is set in the GITS:SAC universe instead of SAC_2045 (so SAC_2045 AU). So a few years after S1&S2. All SAC S1 and S2 series pretty much left as is, but there can be minor differences in the past events, like Section 9 is already back together. There is basically no plot from SAC_2045 (seriously, sustainable war? 1984? geez), so it doesn’t contain SAC_2045 spoilers (kinda..), but most of the characters are the same, and their personalities mostly as they were. You don’t need to know much about GITS or GITS:SAC to read, though some surface knowledge would help getting into it easier. The main character is Esaki Purin, because I love her. There won’t be any straight ships, only girls (and enby) love! There will be OCs or characters from other GITS.

The cover is one of the official SAC_2045 posters. <<less

Zathaniel was a normal average kid that had no life, no friends, and no more family left to look after him. His Grandparents, the ones that were looking after him -- because his parents had died when he was ten -- had mysteriously died in their sleep when he was just seventeen. ... more>>

Zach, his family nick-name, was taking a trip to japan with his high school class, but on the way there he meets an unknown person asking him to hand over a project hes been working on the past few years in return for another.

Zach suddenly finds himself floating in a dark void, and there was a tablet with a questionnaire on it, so like a normal person, he starts choosing the things that apply most to him, and when he's done, he's consumed by darkness once again...

A second life to atone for the first.
A bracelet to harness the powers of magical cards.
A set of Trials that the mythological gods would be watching. Those who still live.... more>>

Frank didn't know what waited for him as he drifted away to his final sleep. He expected relief. He hoped for it.

What he didn't expect was being given magical cards to defend himself, minutes from waking up into a new world. He was now Champion, among hundreds of others, in some sort of divine Olympics where they had to earn and buy cards that could cast spells, conjure weapons out of thin air, or even summon beasts to do their bidding.

And he would need all the cards he could get. Especially once he learns of the debt he now owes, and once he realizes that he might not be the only one brought back to life.

---------

What to expect

This is a deckbuilding LitRPG, so expect card choices to matter.

There will be a heavier focus on action whenever a Trial is ongoing, and a mix of intrigue, worldbuilding, action and slice-of-life whenever there's downtime.

This story has a form of stats, but they're not prominent and will show up rarely.

And last warning, which I'm including because this type of magic is pretty divisive: This story contains mild mind magics and it cannot cause a loss of agency. The closest is I could compare to is Soothers and Rioters from the Mistborn series. The details will be revealed later on as I don't want to spoil everything, but this is worth the heads up.

Inspired by stories and games such as Omniscient Reader, Slay the spire, Hades, and a bunch of others.

Also, English isn't my first language, so let me know if something sounds awkward.

I hope you enjoy it. I'm definitely having fun writing it.

Harems have become too powerful. Heroes fall prey to temptation and poor relationship development, and no woman is truly safe from a life of emptily yearning for one man. When the Goddess of Reincarnation is taken out of the picture, her sister Vice-Goddess summons a new champion, a man who she hopes will resist the blight of haremhood, emaciate the men of Gaia from their self-deprecating stupor, and overall just be a decent guy for once in this world.... more>>

Watch as he walks into a female companion in the middle of changing, then promptly turns around, apologizes, and leaves without being magicked in the ass because it's not really that big of a deal.

There's only one bed? No problem.
Need some personal space? Gotchya.
Developing mutual feelings? Let's talk it out.

In this tale, the true fantasy is the fulfilling friendships and mutually-assured relationships along the way.

***

This story is primarily slice-of-life, but there will still be sword-and-magic action. I can't say much about how the balance between the two is or will be, but I will always strive towards the path that will grow friendships and strengthen the Platonic Agenda.

Finally, I hereby declare this story completely SFW.
