There's a hierarchy, places among all lives in the universe.... more>>

Primitive animals, intelligent mortals, their kings, and then their gods. Then there are their gods' gods, being so powerful that even they can’t touch.

However, to all of these being, there’s one thing they know, but don’t remember. One thing they all fear and respect, but will inevitably forget.

The white shadow in the corner of their eyes, the whispers behind their ears, the tiny voices inside their head, guiding them, manipulating them, leading the course of the history of the universe to its desired destination.

The All-Knowing One who always watches over the whole of existence.

Ever since the beginning of time, a grand library has a record of every action, every thought, every emotion, every intent and every word ever spoken by anything. Every feat ever accomplished, every failure, every concept that has ever been conceived and every second of every life is in there.

The archive of books that has reality recorded onto its page.

And the recorder, its elusive master, the watcher of fates and the writer of destiny who has been observing all life from the very beginning—is a human.

Welcome—to the Conceptors Grand Archive.
Everything you know and more is in there.

(A certain [Self-Aware Fictional Character] recruits the help of an 'ordinary' failed author from Earth in the 21st century to help him create a new version of the universe. But as the Protagonist and the Antagonist continue to argue about how the story should end, the grip of [False Entropy] grows ever stronger.)

After accidentally hitching a ride atop an airship while repairing it's engines, Kooky finds herself disembarking at the town of Barling, having to assist in... more>> repairing it's engines again due to a bandit attack stealing it's fuel source; Spirit-Ore. It isn't all that great of a material to Kooky, but some people find it's ability to imprison non-native beings of Del-Atar within itself to be well worth it's price. Along with it's use as a fuel source. As such, Kooky joins arms with Elves, Half-Elves, Warforged, Gnomes, Tieflings, and even a mutant Changeling in an effort to take back the stolen fragments of Spirit-Ore so that the airship can be repaired.
Granted, Kooky at this point never realized the future devastation she is about to prevent with her journey.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The world of Del-Atar belongs to my friend and Dungeon Master of the Dawn of Cataclysm campaign.
I play as Kooky the Artificer, along with two of my friends who play various characters throughout the campaign. Yes, I am the only one thus far who has not had to make a new character. One reason why they even have new characters to start with is because resurrections have severe penalties in our campaign. Anyway, do understand we are still going through our campaign, and that at some point I will have to stop updating this for a while. <<less

This story tells about a boy who meets a lone girl in the library under the dusky weather

In a vast multiverse where Luminai and mortals coexist, Aeon, a being who becomes a luminal of extraordinary capabilities, embarks on a remarkable journey of self-discovery and enlightenment. Along the way, they encounter beings of immense power and knowledge, forge deep connections with fellow Luminai like Elysia, Zephyr, and Lighthouse, and unravel the secrets of the cosmos.... more>>

Aeon's path is filled with awe-inspiring adventures, from confronting the malevolent Tenebris and protecting their luminal kin to venturing into the realms of dreams and quantum immortality. They explore the boundaries of existence, create utopias, and become an influential teacher, sharing their profound wisdom with all who seek enlightenment.

Driven by an insatiable thirst for knowledge, Aeon's quest takes them to distant planets, mystical realms, and ancient libraries. They transcend the limitations of their own existence, gaining mastery over cosmic forces and becoming a guiding light for Luminai and mortals alike.

Throughout their journey, Aeon's character evolves, as they learn the art of sleep from Snoozelord, indulge in the joys of life, and embrace their role as a cosmic sage. Their teachings ripple across the cosmos, inspiring countless beings to seek truth, challenge boundaries, and unlock their hidden potential.

As the story progresses, Aeon's influence spreads, and they become a revered figure, shaping the destiny of civilizations and catalyzing revolutions of thought. Yet, despite their vast knowledge, Aeon remains humble, acknowledging the vast mysteries of the universe that lie beyond mortal comprehension.

With each step forward, Aeon's connection to the universe deepens, as they continue to explore the unknown, push the boundaries of understanding, and unravel the secrets of existence. Their story, intertwined with the fabric of reality, becomes a timeless tale of exploration, growth, and the boundless nature of curiosity.

For generations, Christian’s family have had a natural ability to see beings that are usually invisible to humans and to do magic. They aren’t, however, the only witches in the world or even in the area. When his Scottish-born mother wants to return to her family, and her husband and his widower father decide to go with her, Christian inherits the responsibility for their house and its hidden library.... more>>

Not alone, however. His family leave him with a roommate, Mark, an apparently normal human around his own age. But appearances are especially deceptive in this case.

Christian builds a reputation, first around the New Age bookshop where he works, then beyond that, as someone to turn to when things go bump in the night. Whether it's lingering negative energy, a lost ghost, or a dangerous infestation, he'll solve it. Sometimes, that's with the help of a powerful, sensual, and often bloodthirsty lamia who is still perplexed about how she has come to genuinely care about a human.

Throw in a group of witches called the Fellowship, who are firmly convinced that all witches should come under their authority and above all else stay below the radar; a subgroup within the Fellowship who feel that the ends for the greater good justify any means; a few supernatural threats; a friend from another independent witch family, who has a very close past history with a kitsune who says less than she does; Christian’s Dungeons and Dragons gamer group; a young black cat in dire need of a home; a colony of feral cats inherited from his great-aunt; and a couple of non-witch friends, and life gets complicated in a hurry.

Two characters in this are significantly transgender, in different ways, and orientation is mostly not a consideration. Oh, and it's set in 1998, which was when the very first, very rough draft was written.

** Trigger warnings **
This one does have more explicit sex and violence than my usual, and that's primarily all about the titular lamia herself. It's going to be difficult to be comprehensive without spoilers, but feel free to ask if you have questions, I completely understand. Broad strokes: lamias are a form of energy vampire/succubus (sort of) and actively hunt men to feed, usually without killing but also without consent - if you're okay with the typical vampire/succubus morality this should be okay. (Consent is different with humans she knows!) Lamias tend to have a very direct and physical approach to removing obstacles and annoyances; most of the violence is towards aggressive supernatural creatures (one scene came out particularly gory), but not all of it. One minor character who appears briefly late in the story endured some abuse that ends at that point. There's no harm done to children or animals with the single exception of a cat hunting a mouse. Please be careful with this one if you're prone to triggers!
