In the town of Marston, Virginia, six protagonists find a coin that, when flipped, can let them take anyone's appearance. Over a series of robberies and heists, they grow up together, find themselves and each other, all from the perspective of their future selves, looking back to how they got to where they are now, and why they haven't spoken in half a decade.

Terrianis Julitae Elhyrissiar, the current Emperor of the Elhyrissian Empire, receives the ominous warning of the Almodo, warning him of the Shadow that envelops the world slowly. His task, to find and guide the Chosen of Almodo, to defeat this new evil before it roots itself, and most importantly before it finds the Chosen and alters the Dream of the Almodo.... more>>

In a world where the lines between hunter and hunted blur, Callista navigates the treacherous waters of the Celestial Academy, where supernatural beings and secrets collide. Armed with her trusty blades and a healthy dose of snark, she finds herself entangled in a web of mystery, murder, and a romance that's equal parts sizzling and deadly, and enough twists to make your head spin. ... more>>

With a cast of characters that includes a vampire roommate with a penchant for trashy novels, a Watcher resembling Mr. Darcy who sighs more than breathes, a brooding werewolf with a tragic backstory, and a nymph who may or may not be the world's most adorable third wheel, Callista's journey is a rollercoaster ride of emotions, action, and questionable life choices.

Imagine Hogwarts meets Wednesday Addams on a bender in Buffy's world, with an R-rated twist so dark it'd make your grandma clutch her pearls (don't ask). Are vampires the real villains, or is the Queen of the Damned playing a deeper game? World domination? Uncovering her true identity might be the key to stopping the apocalypse... like, yesterday. <<less

When your heritage as a dragon is the least of the secrets kept from you, danger and adventure are close at hand.... more>>

Drenar and his best friend Julia found a magical creature bestiary that revealed a startling truth: they're Awakening into their draconic forms, and their latent powers tied to it are slowly kicking in. While grappling with this revelation, a mage insurrectionist organization responsible for their changes rears its head, tries to coerce them to help them tear down the current mage government, and threatens both worlds of consequence.

Those rebels made a BIG mistake, threatening a bunch of teenage dragons who don't want their world to fall to pieces. They band together, along with others they find along the way and forge their own path to defend the world against the rising evil of the Talons and their leaders. Foes that include the deadly and enigmatic CEO Valosterla, a maniacal dragoness who sings as she slaughters her enemies.

Prepare for a journey of daring heroes fighting for what's right, while they shine a light to guide the way...Witness the rise of the Luminaires!

Riley Murus. An adventurer who has traveled all over in just five years, he is notorious for saving others with his incredible constitution and strength. However, many are unable to connect his face with his name or presence. Why? Because that’s simply his curse. In exchange for a strong body, he is unable to feel, to be felt, to be noticed, or even to taste. It often makes others underestimate him. In fact, this has led to the downfall of many. Still, will his strength and toughness be able to withstand the beginnings of this new era? Conflict is on the horizon. In the years to come, what will happen to this world filled with... more>> conjurings, blessings, curses, and chaos?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This series will not solely be centered on the MC, as I intend to have it focus on a few characters depending on the arc and situation at hand.

Simultaneously, once I get far enough into the story, I intend to add in side stories. Once I am that far in, I intend to add in side stories. Furthermore, once I add enough side stories, I will add a page with a list of side stories apart from the main story. I will add a link to it once I’ve reached that point.

Fair warning!

"If you are young and don't dream of space, then toil on your soil forever", the legendary Hopkins II once said. And whether you are a rebellious cat or an orphaned human, you dream of jumping between worlds to see the wonders of the galaxy: the space elevators, sunsets on resort worlds, or exotic foods. These dreams usually don't involve run-down ships, strange passengers, being shanghaied, or freshly mutated or meeting old civilisations. The reality is all this and more.
 
A slice-of-life story of two young jump pilots, one cat and the other a human, alternating told in volumes. The first volumes are mostly world-building the action starts in mid-volume 4 (around chapter 37)... more>> so a slow build up. The science is as hard as FTL travel can be, restricting the action. However, the focus is on the soft side (character interaction).

When one wakes up in a world destroyed with rot and overtaken by the undead, survival should be one's number 1 priority.

However survival is no longer an option.

As he awakens one day, Marcus finds that he is no longer alone in this world.

Ever.

[It is only through experiencing death and destruction... that you will truly know the meaning of suffering.]

It was supposed to be a night spent with friends, chatting and enjoying the great outdoors. Exploring a forest with a silly little myth around it. Unfortunately, the lives of Temate's friends had other plans, but so did most of Toni's friends. The two strangers decide to take a chance and camp together instead of abandoning their trips altogether. When the myths of the forest turn out to be not so mythical, the two find themselves facing down a Hedgeling, meeting the Harvest King, and travelling to a new world. Left with no way home and only each other to rely on, what will become of these two strangers?

There IS sections of smut/erotica occasionally these will be given their own "chapters" and marked with a <3 heart. They can be skipped, though if you don't mind erotica or smut, or if you enjoy it, there will be further insights into the characters in those sections. Erotica isn't *just* about getting off for me, it also lets me poke at deeper, rawer parts of people. The kinds of things that even the more impulsive people tend to control and hide.
Oh also CW for potentially upsetting kinks at the start of each erotic chapter. Also potentially for normal chapters if I remember/think to.

For the most part though I aim to create a fantasy isekai story which twists what we know enough to be unique, without making it unidentifiable. All the classic stuff is there but with twists, it'll be a blast! Sometimes literally ;)

Chapters are not, and will not likely ever, be uniform or consistent in size. I mostly just write as I can and end the chapter when it feels right. Some will be short, some will be long, some will be in between.

~~~Shedule~~~
Mon/Wed/Friday if I have a chapter to go up

I exist on a series of hyperfixations and hyperfocuses. Right now that is this, I hope to continue to do this to complete the story in my head but who knows when my attention will drift. I promise I will always come back to this but there may be times when I don't post for weeks. Right now I just write when I get home and will post as mentioned above.

Any questions feel free to reach out, feel free to shit on my writing or compliment it, but say something if it engages you!

Post your suggestions, idea's, theories. I love seeing that type of stuff and may feel compelled to tease you about your idea if you're right (or if you're wrong, it's just fun to theory craft).

Also if anyone's an artist and wants to make a skeleton boi marching, or do any other work, hmu. I can't pay much but I will pay something.

The dissolution of Lady Ein's engagement to Prince Lochlann in favor of a foreign commoner threatens to plunge the kingdom back into civil war—but Ein is more concerned about losing her access to the kingdom's best medical practitioners; her mysterious illness is only getting worse, and time is running out.

Prince Finnian, the youngest—and grumpiest—member of the new royal family, has always known that something inside of him was different. It's not until a near-fatal accident unlocks hidden memories that he realizes what: he's been reincarnated into the world of an otome game as the tsundere Romanceable Option, and he's on route for a deadly Bad End.

Now, he must work carefully to steer the story in a different direction and eliminate the game's villainess, Lady Ein—even if it means giving up on his desire to transition.

Well, except being trapped in a 'system' governed, jungle hellscape instead.

See... Calvin lived an incredibly average life.
