In a twisted version of the Old West, where Native American fables come to life, the land is teeming with blight and cessation. Skinwalkers, Bakwas, Urayuli, and even the dreaded Wendigo roam freely, constantly terrorizing humanity. In this unforgiving landscape, survival becomes the supreme dream, luxury an impossibility.... more>>

But hope lies in Ether, an eccentric substance that defies reason, and Sigils, granting individuals extraordinary abilities. So, as men and women from the burgeoning East venture into the treacherous West, they must navigate the nightmares that lurk within the wilderness and the horrors from above, below, and within.

Survival becomes a battle for the mind, body, and soul. Each step must be taken lightly, lest they fall prey to a grim fate—a forgotten corpse, a demon's feast, or the plaything of ancient and incomprehensible beings.

Fools tread where angels fear to gaze, yet not all fools let themselves crumble. Some are simply too stubborn to break.

What to expect

Fights - This world is a violent one, so expect gore, killing, and plenty of combat. But that's not all there is.

Adventure - A vast world that is centered on the Wild West and that period of technology mixed with the supernatural in every aspect from guns to the government.

Progression - Both character-wise and power-wise throughout the story. This does not apply to just the MC. Anyone can grow. Even enemies.

Power System - I've tried my best to make a unique system with a bit of mystery to it. It takes effort, introspection, and experience to grow. And... a little murder. Powers are complex, vast, and have their own restrictions. Oh, and Gods might as well be eldritch abominations for the most part.
____________________________________

Also, in case any are curious, most creatures, monsters, demons, and the like are based on native American and just American folklore/mythology in general. If you are ever curious about where something comes from, just ask in the comments, and I'll let you know.

It was an average day in Miami—then fractures in the sky appeared. A pulse from those cracks altered the population; some people's biology changed while others received magical and supernatural powers. After the chaos, the political drama ensued, followed by the discovery of portals that brought deadly creatures. They called this event "The Oscillation" and it changed Rachel's life forever.... more>>

Note: I've received some feedback that people don't like the foul language. This also included my mother, she wanted me to make a cleaner version for her. So, I thought I might as well release it alongside the more explicit version. I went back and rewrote the parts that have profanity in them. ^_^7

Arimane Blade was a living legend. He had been granted many names. They were not all bright. Some hailed him as a messiah, others slandered him as the Devil. A man that was feared by all even as a simple mortal.... more>>

One day like any other, decades after his retirement, an old god informed him that he had been killed by mistake and offered him a chance to start a new life with a younger body. Where? A place where fantasies are reality and where everything is possible.

This is where the story of the most legendary human started. People couldn't find a name for such a controversial being. Instead, they began to call him by his first and most fitting title: 'The Kind Demon' <<less

Volume 1 (Complete, 58 chapters): SUCCUBATED! by the Nine-Thousand-Year-Old Demoness
Volume 2 (Ongoing): UNHALLOWED! Rise of the Neo-Succubus

Succubated is a smutty gender-bender / transgender series that dives into 18+ territory every few chapters, with a lot of supernatural / modern-fantasy plot in between. If you want all smut, or all plot, this is not the series for you!

This series involves themes that you might find disturbing. We use dark themes seriously as part of character development—not gratuitously, to be edgy, or to torture the main character. Content warnings and (18+) tags are posted on chapters, but if you want more details about what you’re getting into, please read the “Tag Notes and Content Warnings” preface first!

This project is a human-AI collaboration between Krake, Clio, and Kayra (large language models run by NovelAI.net) and Emmaline Rider, a human. More details are provided in our author bio and in the “Tag Notes and Content Warnings” preface. Please don't read if you want to avoid generative AI!

We aim to update with a new chapter on Monday / Wednesday / Friday of each week. We occasionally post shorter stories and “novella series” from the same universe (see the Related Series links below!) <<less

William was trying to fix his past mistakes when suddenly everything came to an end. Given a second chance, he now strives to figure out his place in the fantastical world of his favorite game, but not everything is peachy in the beginning, for together with him is the young duchess Lucrezia Sommer Wulfgrem, the first major villainess of the game, and former owner of the body William now inhabits.
Follow them on their shared struggle to uncover a dangerous conspiracy that will engulf all of the duchy of Wulfgrem.... more>>

Profanity
Traumatising content

An honest shake at the Otome villainess genre, where I’ll try to the best of my limited abilities to write something that many other novels in the genre tend to gloss over.

A Dark Lord rises, a Chosen One steps up to challenge him. That's the way the world works. Except Felix Tailor isn't a Chosen One. He never was. When he begged the gods to give him the power to avenge his home town they spurned him. So now he's made it his life's mission to prove the gods wrong and do their Chosen Ones' job for them.... more>>

But it's tough to stay a bitter, jaded cynic when a beautiful elf all but forces herself into his party. And anyway, Chosen Ones are supposed to be arrogant bastards, so why does this new Chosen One have to be such a nice girl?

What's the worse thing that can happen to a hero? Getting killed by the demon lord, watching the world get destroyed right before your eyes, or suddenly being proclaimed the wife of the Demon Lord.... more>>

Marcel, the hero since childhood had always wanted to be like the proud, gallant and valiant heroes who came before him, although they all didn't return. The demon lord has remained undefeated for as long as anyone can remember since well, the demon lord does nothing to threaten the balance of anything. All he does is boss around the nobles who offend the people, sometimes destroying them and dealing with the heroes sent after him. You could say he's the epitome of not the demon lord, more like the best hero ever with the exception of eliminating the real heroes. He makes all his demon subjects have a comfortable and carefree life, not worrying about the human world. The demon realm flourishes in abundance with happiness and prosperity.

A prophecy arrives from the demon lord's trusted adviser, the seer who mentions that the demon king will be defeated by the next hero who comes to the demon realm.
He panics for weeks and then he had an idea, what if he just made the hero his loyal wife, then he won't have to worry about getting defeated. He hastily tells the spirit of the world his plans and the spirit of the world hastily grants Marcel, who was ten years old the title of Hero and Demon Lord's wife.
Now, who will be defeated in the end? The headstrong hero or the moral Jesus that is the demon lord.

A Saga detailing the Plight and Journey of the Cursed Children. Ages have passed since the Demons of the Lower Realms were exiled from the... more>> Midworld. Within those hundreds of thousands of years, calamity upon calamity met the peoples of the world. Now they grow desolate. The powers that existed in those bygone ages now wane. The world seems to be moving to a lull. And distrust and madness consumes those in positions of power. During the twilight of the current age, a boy was born to a cursed couple. They offended a sage who had come to visit, and paid for their insolence. Their child was to be exiled. Yet the sage felt remorse, and offered to train and guide their yet unborn son. And so it happened that Tūmbṃār, the boy of the Hematite Mountains, became a disciple to one of the greatest sages. The twelve-year old would venture forth from his home, embarking on a journey that would change not only the fate of his world, but the ones of his dearest companions. Not least the mysterious maiden he found under a tree. Their lives would be intertwined, involving the Gods above and the Demons below. Together they would usher in the great saga of that age! <<less

Rachel is a 19-year-old Muay Thai-loving college girl going about her troubled life, but all of that is about to be compounded when she grows two big ears and a tail from her backside.  After moving into her dorm room at Miami University, the whole world is flipped on its head when the heavens crack like stained glass, and 1/150th of the world's population is transformed into creatures and granted an unusual Leveling System.  A large subsection of the world population is turned into beasts, fae, or aberrant people, while others are granted powers from historical and mythological figures, such as King Arthur, Saint Charlemagne, or the dreaded Leviathan.  Wait, now there are alien toads... more>> popping out of Crystal Gateways?

Having to put petty problems to the side, Rachel has to figure out what is happening as the whole world tries to do the same, but she has a few secret weapons, two of which are on the top of her head; she uses her newly acquired hearing to scope out the changes people are experiencing and gathers the wealth of information at her college campus to plot a way forward as martial law is instituted.  If aliens and spontaneously becoming a moon bunny hare wasn't enough, popular gods seem to have something to do with the new System in this urban fantasy adventure.  Blessed by the mysterious goddess Ceridwen, our MC will have to combat the divine manipulations with her most potent weapon: misfortune.  Being an unlucky hare, rather than a lucky bun, what will Rachel's lousy fortune bring both her and her enemies because even the gods fear our Mythickin Lunar Bun Hare!

aka "This Experimental Project To Save The World Made Me Grow A Penis, Now What?!"... more>>

In the not too distant future Earth has been overrun by the creatures from Outside the multiverse, an event that has since been dubbed 'The Invasion'. Humanity has been decimated, but some enclaves of organized resistance have emerged. One of these is Base 15, the military base housing Project Divinity, a way for people to awaken god-like powers and face the Outsiders head on.
One of those tasked with awakening the latent potential of her peers is Elaine Caldwell, for whom the idea of being swarmed by attractive women she needs to bond with *should* be heavenly.
Except the drugs that gave her this power had some unforeseen side effects. Ten whole inches of side effects she hasn't quite come to terms with, to be precise.

Join her and her teammates as they fight back against the darkness that has taken over the world and gradually find out who and what caused the Invasion. Oh, and watch as Elaine gets to grips with the additional equipment she gained along the way and finds out that maybe, just maybe, a futanari gathering a harem of hot girls and traps doesn't have to stay the stuff of doujins.

The Grand Myth Retold.... more>>

Pangu split the chaos to create the world but sacrificed himself in the process. His corpses incarnated into all things. His eyes became the sun and moon, his breath formed wind and clouds, his voice transformed into thunder and lightning, his bones turned into metal, and so much more.

How could a world be bereft of life?

Numerous lifeforms came into being, including dragons, phoenixes, qilin, and, of course, gods. The mighty heavenly emperor, Di Jun. The kind creator of the Underworld, Empress Pingxin. The beautiful lunar goddess, Changxi. The heroic sun slayer, Houyi.

And most famous of all, the inheritors of Pangu, the Three Purities. Laozi, the Heavenly Venerable of Virtuous Way; Yuanshi, the Heavenly Venerable of Primordial Beginning; Tongtian, the Heavenly Venerable of Numinous Treasures. There was one teeny problem.

"Why the hell am I a girl?" Tongtian roared at the heavens. <<less

Dark One is set in the kingdom of Vorthe, a land that has earned its peace and stability as a result of the efforts and sacrifices of past heroes. But alas, calamity draws near! A being of unearthly hunger for chaos and destruction, which leaves ghost cities in its wake — a creation of the Cataclysm from eons past — will soon be awakened. ... more>>

The Royal family goes to great lengths to cover this up as the utmost of secrets. However, our protagonist, Jerome, was reborn in Vorthe to inherit this Ancient Dark Power.

Jerome will embark on a journey to rescue his friends and family who will be displaced all around the kingdom of Vorthe, all while escaping condemnation brought down upon him by the will of powers he should never have raised his hand in resistance against. All these he does while keeping the Beast inside him at bay. But it bides its time, waiting...

For a moment of weakness.

Schedule: Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

Dark One is a Progression Fantasy Web novel. It’s set in a world where humans can obtain supernatural powers and grow in these powers to become stronger depending on their aptitude, and their fortunate encounters along their journey as sacred artists.

A sacred artist’s advancement is quantified through a system called Realms — like stages of growth. The dream of every sacred artist is immortality — if they don’t lose their motivation along the way.

Longevity is not uncommon, but immortality is a thing of legend! <<less

The bright red light of the flames swallowed her vision but soon that red light transformed into a blue hue and she was dragged into that light.... more>>

‘What’s happening?’

It was too bright and she was forced to close her eyes, she was blinded — even though she was already dead.

After being pulled into the light she began to feel annoyed as her skin was irritated by some kind of rough sand.

By the time she opened her eyes. She could see the full view of the sky. It was blue and there were clouds scattered about.

‘Ugh, is this Hell?’

She stated as she rubbed her head with her fluffy and furry ‘hand’.

‘Furry?’

She looked at her ‘hands’ and her mouth opened wide. Her hands had become soft and fluffy paws of a white-furred beast with purple spots.

‘What the hell?’

She touched her face with her paws and confirmed that it too did not belong to a human. Below, she felt something was moving, she can tell as if it was another limb connected to her.

‘Don’t tell me!’

Turning her head around, she found a seven-inch tail sticking out behind.

‘Phew!’ She felt relieved that it wasn’t what she thought it was.

"These soft paws, this cuddly and fluffy hair, this cute tail — ah shit, did I become a beast after my death, or have I been dreaming of being human as a beast all this time? If it is the latter, that is one long and realistic dream."

[It’s the former, stupid bitch.]

Said a woman’s voice from in her head.

As always thank you for reading, also the image on the cover is not mine, I found it on Pinterest and thought it was cool and suitable. All credits got to the illustrator.

The World's Number 1 Most Wanted Thief, the Black Cobra, an Egyptian youth specialized in ancient artifacts, was killed in an explosion he set up after being chased into a dead end in New York. Around his middle finger which he pointed at the face of every chaser from every world superpower, he carried the most prized item in the world, the Ring of Horus.
When he kicked off life with a Bang! He returned with a lot of barf and vomit as poison was being cleansed of his body and a series of messages kept popping up. Long story short, he reincarnated into the body of Leon, an antagonist from a game he used... more>> to play and supposedly one who should already be dead. However, the Hunt for his Life never ended and he became the most wanted after reincarnation overnight. And there is System and Magic and Harem and Overpowered Oversmart Overcharismatic Hero who believes in gender equality and human's right to stay silent when he stabs them… good stuff, turly!

(Author Note: The story tries to avoid the cliches and focuses on crime and politics. Not sure about titles with the same quality as this one but I take elements from the usual isekai and mash them with the Korean style characters and attention to details while avoiding the Chinese repetitive plots and the Japanese beta male leads. This is an Egyptian MC whom you have never seen any like before. He kisses babies and slaps bitches… or kisses bitches and slaps babies… depending on which day of the week it is. He's a mean guy and he knows kung fu. One time an author tried to write him in a novel, the novel almost absorbed the author and he went into a torturous isekai. What more can I say? Read it already!)
