In a universe where some civilizations thrive and others struggle to survive, a hunger for power and dominance has long driven the Manskligs, or humans. But when their reckless pursuit of progress leads to their inevitable downfall, their xenogenic neighbors learn a valuable but misapprehended lesson: adaptation and innovation are essential for survival.... more>>

As technology and genetic mutations give rise to near-omnipotent embodiments of science and pseudoscientific theories being researched, a young alien-hybrid named Miya Yuna will soon discover unfathomable powers laid dormant or just now coming into creation.

Join Miya, a newly inducted Patroller of Gala Fol, on her journey through a universe of interplanetary growth, while also learning the dangers of unchecked progress where the impossible becomes increasingly possible.

The land of Gemeinplatz is a land filled with fantastical creatures, adventurers looking to slay them, and heroes looking to distinguish themselves from the adventurers. The most common of these heroes are those who come from Earth, who enjoy a most leisurely time with their cheat skills. It’s a perfect world, the utopia of those who wish to become overpowered and get their own power fantasy, where even the most everyman of the everyman can pull themselves by their bootstraps and become a hero.

Yet, underneath this “Gemeinplatzer Dream” is a disgusting truth.

To satisfy the needs of heroes who can’t find function like a normal human being (which most of them can’t), the lucrative Gemeinplatz slave trade crushes the dreams and ruins the lives of hundreds every day. These slaves endlessly labor, in the harems of so-called heroes, at the mansions of the landowning “heroes”, and as rare materials for various dubious magical spells.

In a world that looks down at them as demi-human, where the ruling class has no incentive to end this profitable trade, in which their oppressors are overpowered as all hell, what hope is there for the slaves?

What hope is there, is named John Brown. This time, he’ll finish what he started.

“Bring Hell From The Heavens, For The Throne Of Volk” -motto of the Volk First Royal Airborne as of M31.004... more>>

The Volk System is mired in conflict as embers from the Burning of Prospero make their way to its relative sanctuary. A humble standard bearer risks their life to accomplish an impossible task and is rewarded with lifetime service to the Crown of Volk and its soon-to-be wearer, one Freya Foxway. It's a long way to have come for an orphan raised by the proprietor of a bar in the seedier parts of Sokarin, but the gods' favour is always earned and this soldier will not yet reach Valhalla. After all, they still have work to do.

While this is fanfiction for Warhammer 40k/Warhammer: the Horus Heresy (it’s a whole thing ask about it at your own risk), I like to think that prior knowledge of the universe is not required for full enjoyment. If you'd like to learn more about something I mention ask about it in the comments!

Note for Warhammer nerds: this fic does take place during the Horus Heresy, however, I have never read any of the books and I do not intend to. If I commit a lore crime, you are welcome to call me out, but note that I am not bound by the cannon. (For example: I will include female space marines. If you don’t like it then please keep that to yourself! Thanks!)

psst, if you're here for the Mecha tag, you gotta wait until chapter seven. <<less

"I hurt, human children."
"I can take it from ye, if ye want."
"You cannot. He took them, and crushed them into blood. Take my hurt, you say? But it is all I have left of them."
Healer Yuen Sou Yuet has somehow found themselves saddled with a travelling companion, a gender-shifting, trouble-making necromancer. They're stuck with each other - Sou Yuet must undergo a trial to prove their worthiness as successor to the Yuen Mei School of Healing, whilst the necromancer essentially requires a parole officer after committing multiple crimes and continuously escaping imprisonment. 
And so the unlikely duo travel from country to country, investigating the disappearance of legendary creatures across the world. The farther they go, the closer to home some of their revelations are.

Zaina Quin is an ordinary young woman working her father's farm when her life is turned upside down by the impending end of her world.

In the vast and volatile lands of Tepr, the Jabliu and Alinkar tribes, long-standing enemies, have forged an uneasy alliance. The price of peace? A union through matrimony between Naci, the fiery and ambitious daughter of Jabliu's chieftain, and the elusive heir of Alinkar.... more>>

From the windswept steppes to the towering peaks of the Tengr Mountains, Tepr is a realm of contrasts, a mosaic of tribes, each fiercely guarding its identity and territory. While the alliance is a political move, for Naci, it's an opportunity. She doesn't just see a marriage; she sees a stepping stone, a path that might lead her to the ultimate prize: the unification of all the tribes under one banner.

But the path to power is fraught with challenges, and the distant Moukopl empire, perched high in the Tengr mountains, has long held an iron grip over the region. <<less

The last time humanity had seen the natural white light of the sun was a few millennia ago. Left with no other choice but to adapt, countless sacrifices paved the path to survival. Their new lives were filled with daily tests and tribulations. The word 'humanity' had lost meaning a long time ago.

Trials were placed before them, trials that they must overcome to gain the bare necessities for survival. If they want food and water, they need to solve the puzzle. If they want to gain weapons to fight back against the lingering monstrosities inside, they must complete the trial awaiting them. If they want to escape, they need to keep moving forward. Unfortunately for humanity, they weren't here alone. <<less

Some clarifications and notes:

- While this is a School Life/SoL Novel, it contains dark and traumatic content. I advise you to be aware, as I won't put warnings to spoil avid horror readers.

- Multiple characters with some exploration, town-building, and politics. There's something for everyone and I never write a perspective without you knowing something new afterwards.

- The Game World of Callixtus has an entire map, along with special ranking, magic systems, races, classes, and commands/spells. I'll make a list once enough information is given.

- This book contains Drama and Romance aspects, though they'll be naturally occurring and won't be the focus of the story.

- There are a lot of characters both in Callixtus and in the real world. At some point, I'll create a fandom/wiki so you'll be able to visualize them all with art, along with a ranking chart of the different academy brackets. <<less

Karla is a simple girl of simple needs. All she wanted in life is to have fun in peaceful luxury and maybe go on trips and adventures once every year. Destiny says otherwise, and chains her with ever-increasing responsibility. Born as a princess in a highly competitive and ruthless imperial court, it took all her powers and wits just so she can protect herself.... more>>

Her actions to protect those she cared about are perceived by many as her intention to inherit the throne, sinking her deeper into the murky waters of imperial politics. Will she be able to save everyone? Or more importantly, will she manage to be happy while doing so?

“I have no intention at all to become Empress” Karla said with unshakable resolve.

“Why do my most capable children like this? It's like a curse” The emperor shakes his head in dismay.

“Lucius and now you, not even a speck of ambition can be seen.”

Lucius? Karla wondered, her brother received the same treatment too? While she is thinking about that, the emperor proceeds with his complaints.

“My most foolish children, on the other hand, are fighting tooth and nail for the throne.” <<less
