Pain and loss make us better and stronger people. This is the story of a superhero who started from a broken home and found more. When your powers came from a notorious super villain, does that fact define your future? Who you are?... more>>

Disclaimers: Arc 3 - An Ill Wind through current are loosely edited by myself. Arc 1 - The Dream - Arc 2 - Second Flight are highly edited.

My co-writer isn't with us anymore. I've converted this story into a serialized novel series. I don't consider this to be just any novel, since it has personal and sentimental value. Everything from The Dream to Saucery was co-written by Sureia (Khaizard), my late fiancee'. Let's see where the story goes beyond from arc 6 through 9, where it will end.

Lia was walking between classes when the targeting on a wizard's lightning bolt went awry and the bolt struck Lia, killing her on the spot. And that would have been the end of it, had her best friend not managed to somehow preserve her soul and bring her back...as an entirely new species of monster called a Swarm Queen. And, apparently, she was going to be trying to take over the world, make everyone into part of her swarm. Eventually. When she got stronger.
Well...she already died once, so what harm is there in giving things a second go, right?... more>>

(Main character receives no gender bender. The genre tag remains there because gender bending does feature in the story, but there is no "minor" tag to properly illustrate that)

Series has a strict update schedule of "when it comes out, it comes out". That can mean two chapters in one day, or over a month between chapters. Both have happened in the past. This is something I write on the side while "turning my brain off", so just keep in mind that releases will be inconsistent.

If you want to be notified when this does update, check out my discord, I post notifications there: https://discord.gg/5TuC5ju

READ THE FOREWORD: I cannot stress this enough, this series is different from my usual fare and there come some caveats with it. In the foreword I address a lot of comments and questions I foresee people having. A lot of tags are also speculative, so there is also a brief explanation of them there as well. If you find yourself having questions about a tag, the foreword is the place to look/ask questions.

I'm tired of villainess stories. They all have the same plot, the main character is a girl who gets reincarnated into the body of the villain of a story she read, then grows to realize how poorly treated the villainess truly was.
Then, she vows to make the main character, who is usually the blonde haired blue eyes prince who does no evil, pay. The girl he cheated on her with is forgiven and treated like an angel, while the prince is suddenly despised by everyone and never receives any other punishment.
If I were a villainess, I'd enslave the girl who the prince cheated with and kill him as slowly as possible!

The world is mostly Young Justice but the team won't be the focus.

MC has the memories of a young guy from our universe but she was trully reincarnated and has lived most of her life as Kara Zor-El without any memories of her previous life. It's best to think of it like an amnesiac who has built a new life suddenly remembering his past memories.

EDIT: Fellow beings of refined taste, there is finally SMUT! It only takes 37 chapters! Also, smut can be easily skipped as I'll be putting it in separated chapters and you won't lose much (Just the smut itself) by skipping them.

WARNING! Kara isn't above killing her enemies, but she WILL avoid doing so when it doesn't put anyone else in danger and the villain isn't someone like the Joker.

If she is fighting the Joker and she gets to him before anyone else... well accidents happen. <<less

A story of teenagers discovering magical secrets, gaining extraordinary powers to save the world, and building valuable bonds in the process.... more>>

Flow and Natasha are two troubled teens who can't seem to find their place in the world. After being attacked by a supernatural creature, they find themselves among the ranks of the Enchanters, heroes wielding magical charms to help others. In their quest to protect the city they must face the villainous warlocks, and their enigmatic leader, the Sorcerer.

This is an original series, heavily inspired by Miraculous Ladybug, Toby Fox’s videogames, Warehouse 13, Neverwhere, and many other media.
The main focus of the story is teenagers becoming heroes and fighting magical threats in a fictional city, but heavy topics and real-life issues are also addressed, like trauma, abuse, bullying, social injustice, anxiety and other mental health issues, and death.
Fantasy elements may border on horror and the fight scenes might be upsetting in some cases.
The author and most of the cast are LGBTQ+. Bigots and “I’m not a bigot, but…” people aren’t welcome here.
English is not my first language, but I welcome any constructive criticism.
I hope we’ll have a fun adventure together. <<less

Yesterday, Vayra had nothing. Now, she’s sharing a soul with an Immortal. ... more>>

As a street urchin, she had nothing but dreams—until she was chosen to fight in a war of Gods. She’s the Mediator, a mortal avatar whose spirit can host a God, allowing her to practice a forgotten form of cultivation.

The problem is, she knows nothing. Worse, the Goddess bound to her soul is the weakest of the pantheon, not to mention clumsy and forgetful.

Vayra’s duty as Mediator is to defeat the tyrannical God of the Sea and restore balance to the universe. But first, she must venture across the high seas and to different worlds to save her little brother from a deadly poison.

She must train, earn, and fight for every inch of progress she makes. If she can’t master her power in time, she will lose her brother forever—if she isn't killed by the servants of an angry God first.

A cultivation flintlock fantasy set during the age of sail, where life-energy is absorbed from magic waters, where black powder dominates warfare, and where pirates rule the oceans.

~~~

What to Expect:

- Cultivation in a flintlock fantasy world. It’s not in your typical xianxia setting. This world is meant to have a western, seafaring fantasy feel, despite using a cultivation system.
- Weak to strong progression. A reasonably-flawed lead with immense potential for growth—when the growth is earned.
- An adventure. Characters have goals and destinations that often lead them far from home in the search for power.
- A bit of grit. Characters aren’t invincible and injuries are inevitable.
- Worldbuilding and slice-of-life. Characters won’t always be gaining new abilities and power each chapter.
- 1800-2500 word chapters.

~~~

In an era of gunpowder, cannons, and conflict on a scale never before seen, do immortals and magic still have a place? With the world against her, can Vayra turn the tides in her favour? Can she…even survive?

~~~

Story Milestones (And Rewards):

- 500 followers or 2 reviews: "Art" gallery—I'll make an extra chapter dedicated to posting any extra images in, hopefully for most of the characters.
- 750 followers or 4 reviews: I'll post "Extras" chapters, for lore tidbits and character sheets
- 1000 followers or 6 reviews: I'll make a map for the series
- 1500 followers: I'll commission extra character art to go in the interior of the book when it goes to KU (a while off, still)—but it will be shown for everyone to see, of course.

When his father is killed, Elwin has two choices: One, to live the life of a nobody at a small inn, cowering from the world that’s out to get him, or Two, avenge his father, and free himself from the clutches of fate.

Blamed for the murder of 13,000 lives committed by his father, neither choice is easy for Elwin. Both require sacrifice.

The first choice, while guaranteeing safety, will forever rob him of his ability to dream – it will make him an ant among thousands, dooming him to work as a waiter-boy until he draws his last breath as an old janitor in some dingy cupboard.

The second choice is sure to rob him of his life at the hands of his father's killers, but he has a chance to reforge his own destiny, even if short. Like the Icarus of your world to the Sun, he will fly – but only briefly.

And in the midst of his conundrum, he receives two guests shrouded in secrecy, accompanying with them a mysterious connection to his father’s work.

They offer him a glimpse of a dream beyond his wildest imaginations:

To become a new Sun, instead.

Follow Elwin as he grows up from a little boy to a young teenager, throwing himself into an epic quest to absolve his name and regain his heart. Chosen by a mysterious benefactor and cast into an eminent academy where every peer is superior to him, he must reforge his reputation and prove that he is just as worthy, and just as capable of being loved, as anyone else.

Chapter by chapter, he will learn to control the elements of the world, and in time, even the atoms themselves, eventually wresting control over the very quills by which the cosmos is written. He will forge new friendships amidst the fires and blood of battle, amidst joyous celebrations, and amidst the sky-ringing sendoffs for his fallen allies; they will together become legends with Elwin as their paragon, all for a chance to rewrite their destinies. Every step that he takes will bring him further and further to enshrining his place and legacy in the tapestry of time.

The only question is – how far can he go?

Especially in the face of creatures that devour the Sun?

Hah...

A dating simulator with the elements of levelling up, killing demons, and somehow even trading with aliens of the greater unknown. And for some psychopathic reason, the developers chose romance as the main focal point of the game.

However now that I’m here, how am I supposed to prevent love from ruining the world?

I swear it now-

I will destroy the romance.
