The Umbrae Lunae existed before man, beautiful abominations birthed in the nightmares of mad gods. They wait for humanity to misstep, for the angels to look away. For the moment when they can cloak the world in moon shadows once again.... more>>

But even horrors have children. Even nightmares must feed. One child, unlike the others, finds his way to a school for young abominations. Will he be a sheep cast before the wolves, or a terror that wears the skin of wool to entice the wolf close?

The flesh of his body was his only coin, strips cut to pay debts that never ended. Everyone has scars, stories in a life led, lessons learned, and licks taken. Luminous bodies touched by darkness. There are a cursed few that are the opposite, black shadows consumed by scars, twisted minds devoured by diseased hungers, bodies tortured misshapen works of gouged flesh, silver lines of blade thin cuts, ragged tears of teeth and glass. For them, the scars are marks of homecoming, the mangled wasteland the only place they feel at peace.

Hell is a place. It's made of concrete, steel and glass. It's the sounds of starving kids crying themselves to sleep, huddling into small balls as creepers come and take their due of innocence and tender meat. It's eating rotten food and carrying ticks in your hair. It’s having no one and nothing while surrounded by everything. It's the life of a street kid. What abomination was birthed in the corrupt womb of man’s cast-off shit?

Pretty people don't know the power of ugly. They can't see the strength in a broken soul or the power in a calloused heart. Those secrets are for the discarded alone. Only the broken understand the grace of darkness. The blessed folds that hide scars and tears, the protection of its concealing umbra. <<less

Modern Age Online is the hottest new Full-immersion Superhero Virtual Reality MMO. Millions have dived into their Immersion pods to experience the life of a Superhero or Villain in a simulated recreation of Austin Texas. Join hands with other players to do battle with Mutants, Aliens, Wizards and other various denizens of the first Superhero VRMMO.... more>>

Follow the Mutant Werewolf, Shaggy, as he and his friends try to become some of the biggest Villains in the underground city of Under-Town. Using nothing but their limited wits, semi-decent gaming skills and a dream, they will try to create their own crew in the already gang-infested streets. Join Shaggy, Vlad, Ren, Slink and others as they gather a few Lackeys and go head to head with mobsters, failed science experiments, and other players in this story about how the other half lives in a game of Superheroes, Aliens, and Mutants.

A Werewolf In Under-Town is a project I started when I was stuck on the fourth book in my main line LitRPG series, Modern Age Online. It started as a sort of pallet cleanser and grew from there. Where Modern Age Online follows The Professor and his Superhero friends, A Werewolf In Under-Town takes a few bit villains from that series and follows their trials and tribulations in the underground city of Under-Town.

I don't personally think you need to read the original work, (although I won't complain if you do. It's on Amazon's Kindle Unlimited, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CMDVXM2) but I'm sure someone will disagree with that statement. But I would sure appreciate if ya gave it a try.

Who is the true villain in this story?... more>>

Luca Moreno has always been the good guy, forever doing what he can to make sure that justice is not only served, but done so fairly. Which is why he went into law enforcement. However, one day he's assigned to his biggest case yet and he's plunged undercover into the world of the Brooks family and the criminal empire they lead. With his close friend and co-worker Adiv, he plans to destroy the mafia from the inside out, thereby putting an end to the corruption and terror it incites.

Then he meets Raven, niece of the Don, and she changes everything -- his role within the organization, his feelings, his goals, his morals, and ultimately, who he is entirely.

And like the waves of the ocean insidiously erode the shore, something of innocence becomes something else entirely. <<less

- Cinematic action scenes! (after MC's training arc). Moments of visceral violence
- Interesting cast of characters
- Multiple POV (not too many, just within a few important characters)
- Minor political intrigues and mysteries

Do not expect:
- LitRPG

Explicit Language: A few instances, here and there...
Graphic Violence: Some, particularly from one character... <<less

The world is a dangerous place.... more>>

Men and women with power that leaves the world and all the insignificant lives upon it at their mercy. Many choose to exercise that power for selfish means, but a small group, a fraction of them; chose to use their power to defend the weak. They are the heroes of this world, the ones who risk their lives and sacrifice everything they are just to protect those that cannot protect themselves from the villains who would take everything from them.

Yet even these heroes, are flawed. They are not perfect despite their image of such. They are not all-powerful despite their actions speaking to the contrary. They make mistakes, allow emotion to cloud their judgement, and allow pride to stay their hand.

Villains are not born, they are made and often, they are made by the very heroes who fight to defend this world. These villains, in turn, make the heroes who fight them. A constant cycle that seems to have no end in sight, but ultimately, there is always something that changes. The world is never predictable, never simple, and always changes. Outliers and anomalies have come about many a time in the course of this cycle, but from this cycle, one rises that was different to the rest. He breaks the cycle and wades through the world of heroes and villains, forged by his actions and the actions of those around him.

His goals are simple, and the steps he takes to reach them are long and arduous. Each one is a struggle, but one that brings him ever closer to the end. However, often, the road to hell is paved with good intentions and as his journey progresses, the world suffers the consequences. <<less

MIGHT CONTAIN SPOILERS!!!... more>>

NOTE: Everything prior to Chapter 57 was written based on the original game and system. After the 2.0 update, many of the skills and cyberware have changed function and description, so the early chapters will be "out of date".

Basil just wanted to coast for a month before he had to go back to college. Now, he's thrown into the chaotic world of Cyberpunk 2077. At least the powers that be gave him game-like abilities, which he can use to get rich and thrive. The only problem is that Night City is filled with cyberpsychos (and regular psychos), least of which is a certain Japanese megacorp CEO that's hell bent on starting the next corpo world war. Basil has to work double time to avoid such a disaster if he wants a chance at enjoying his second life.

From the author:
There will be sexy time, but the focus will be mainly on the plot. I am NOT planning on Edgerunners having any significance, so I will mostly respect the world as it is at the start of the video game. The setting will be primarily based on 2077, with bits and pieces from the tabletop and other media sprinkled throughout. <<less

Hellam Ryūjin, an ancient Sorcerer, once gathered the powers of 9 Ancient Dragons and distributed them amongst his 8 allies, in an attempt to reign supreme over the whole world. Gathering their mightiest soldiers, the Ancient Clans assembled themselves to stand against the Dragon-Tails, in a battle that forever changed the Sorcery World known as the Dragon War. Humanity's side was victorious, but a new threat emerged centuries later...which saw the Clans' descendants, the Hunters, facing off against their sworn enemies with hidden intentions: to revive the 9 Dragons.

Dragon X Hunter is an original story, based in the Seinen genre and mainly taking inspiration from the likes of Naruto, Demon Slayer, My Hero Academia, a tad bit of Jujutsu Kaisen, and possibly others. Also, this is my first work...ever.

World peace isn’t as great as most thought it’d be. On the continent of Moravia, eight empires have united humanity into a coalition of kingdoms that killed the world’s gods and have sworn to uphold peace amongst mortals.

Even the right to create an independent nation is locked behind a tournament.... more>>

Mattiew and Adriana Nikoliades try their best to live a settled life as a former pirate and a runaway heiress. But despite their efforts, Adriana’s father inflicted his daughter with a debilitating curse that would end in her death.

But as a man without a drop of sorcerous blood, Mattiew has to get old partners in crime on board with a near-blasphemous lie. The young couple have to decide to either save themselves and hand a corrupt noble more power or stick to their principles and try to overthrow one of the most entrenched noble houses in the world. All before Mattiew gets turned to ash by the Sunkiller, a favorite to win the Bellirex, or Adriana's parents catch on to her conspiracy.

I don't know how to write a synopsis, mainly because I don't know what the story's gonna be like right now lol, so I don't know what to synopsise in the first place.

This story is technically a sequel, but you do not have to read my other story, Jester, before this one. I intend for the two to be able to be enjoyed separately, so that once this is finished in the future, people will be able to enjoy it either sequel-prequel, or prequel-sequel.

Oh, and expect some gore, probably. It's a Worm fic with a Tokyo Ghoul based protagonist, so there's gonna be some stuff, I guess...

I have a discord (Invite code: Pj3Dttwses) and a patreon (patreon.com/user?u=41732867), if you are interested, it will have advance chapters, with some other stuff I write that hasn't gone far enough to post yet. Donations would obviously be appreciated, but no pressure, anything on my patreon will end up online for free eventually, I dislike paywalls. <<less
