This story is just to explain various powers and anatomy of different characters that appear over time in my other stories. Let it be clear that although there may be different characters with the same powers, they will have different limits. In other words, I can create two characters with fire powers, but only one of them can use that power to its fullest capacity.... more>>

(Author's Notes: As more characters appear and gain power, they will be added to an existing chapter. An example is Jean Gray and Charlie Xavier where they both have telepathy but until this very moment only Xavier has appeared.) <<less

In a world where hunters are ranked based on their abilities, Arlo, an F-Rank hunter, has been living a secluded life as a shut-in. However,... more>> his mundane existence takes an unexpected turn when he stumbles upon a mysterious Grimoire on his way home from the store.

Stabbed to death by the hands of his own wife, Lunar got reincarnated into the world of a modern fantasy novel written by his deceased girlfriend. ... more>>

The protagonist of this world was a reincarnated cold-blooded 'Winter Sword Goddess,' and humanity was nothing but a mere pawn of gods. 

The weak were at the mercy of the strong, and they had no control over their fate.

But Lunar, who was reincarnated as a weak villain in this world, refused to accept his fate and be trampled upon.

"Fate is weak before the courageous and strong before the coward. I will be the one in control of my own fate."

"No law or morality shall bind me in this life. My only goal and obsession is to become the Eternal Sovereign, rising above the universe, living an eternal life, toying with galaxies, and doing exactly as my heart pleases."

"For this goal, it didn't matter if I became the enemy of the world. I will be the true villain on the evil path, merciless and cruel. I will stop at nothing to achieve my goal."

In this world where the awakened were called heroes of humanity, Lunar would be an evil villain, wearing the mask of a righteous hero—the mastermind hiding in the shadows, using his wits and future knowledge to rise from the bottom, manipulating even the gods to his will, and stealing all the opportunities for his own benefit.

For himself, in this world, which would soon face a cataclysm and an invasion of the Abyss, he would even swallow the World of Trials given to humanity for their survival.

But at the end of his journey, would he be able to achieve his goal of becoming the Eternal Sovereign?

Let's find out.

In a world plagued by the Carrington Event, where communication collapses and chaos reigns, a select few individuals find themselves bestowed with extraordinary abilities, each represented by a tarot card. Among them is Eros Hermes, a determined seeker of truth, whose quest for forbidden knowledge leads him to unravel the mysteries of the hierarchy of the universe. Guided by his insatiable curiosity and the allure of power, Eros embarks on a perilous journey, navigating the paths of both the physical and metaphysical realms. As he delves deeper into the secrets hidden within the fabric of reality, he discovers the existence of 21 contract holders, each harboring their own ambitions and agendas. With allies and adversaries... more>> alike vying for control over the fate of humanity, Eros must outwit them all. Bound by knowledge yet freed by silence, Eros's fate becomes intertwined with the very essence of existence itself, leading him on a thrilling odyssey of discovery, danger, and ultimately, godhood.

In the wake of the Carrington's cosmic sway,
Lost are the voices that once guided the day.
Gifted with might beyond mortal ken,
Each soul marked by a tarot's golden pen.

How shall humanity dance in this twisted fray?
Will they hold fast, or scatter away?
Amidst the chaos, the contract holders stand,
To wield their power, or with a higher purpose, band?

Enter Eros, seeker of truths untold,
Bound by his quest, his ambition bold.
Through realms unseen, his path winds and twirls,
Yet shall he emerge, or be lost in the shadows' swirls? <<less

Ane—is a telepath. That's not surprising however, since everyone in the world is born with psychic abilities. Normally, a birth ability is something simple or underpowered. Telekinesis for instance, with the strength to maybe lift a carrot. Or perhaps Control of time, but the best you can do is haste yourself by a tenth. Ane on the other hand was born with the Phantom ability, a passive connection to the senses of those around her. Sight, Smell, Taste, Hearing, Touch, and Kinesthesia; she felt them all. To infant Ane, her mother is simply an extension of her body, one she cannot control, but still a part of her, nine months of natal life taught... more>> her that.

Lia—Highly skilled Biokinetic healer, priestess of the Hidden Moon temple, holy prostitute, and mother to Ane. Little time or interest in children, and never expected to raise one. All holy prostitutes send their children to the temple orphanage, that is expected. Those children are loved, and raised by all of the priestesses and acolytes of the temple. However, once Ane was born it was found that she could not be separated without trauma. This is troublesome, tiring, and not at all what Lia had expected to do with her life, she had patients to heal and lords to pleasure.

This is the story of Ane, her friends, her family, and their struggles. She is a troublesome child growing up with even more troublesome abilities. Her struggle is to define who she is while being unable to separate herself from those around her. With no sense of boundaries and no proper fear, she walks through life tossed on the waves of feelings, sensations, and thoughts inflicted upon her against her will.

The world itself is a realm of power struggles; physical, psychic, and political. On the verge of technological renaissance while also on the verge of another awakening nightmare. As the population grows along with their powers, so too do the dangers that lurk in the wildlands. Old lessons from the age of mythology have been forgotten and must be relearned.

Notes:
Updating every weekday.
There is a power chart I'm working on, though unfinished and needs to be reformatted a bit. Will post the powers in the glossary as they come available in the story. If I forgot one leave me a note please!

Hunter has always been a little different from everyone else. You wouldn’t know it just by looking at him, but those who do know have always looked at him with fear and even disgust. It isn’t his fault. He was born this way… born as a psychic.... more>>

Throughout his life, he’s helped several trans women hatch from their eggs, using his powers to figure out just the right way to push past their denial: his best friend from high school, a college roommate, a rival co-worker… it’s almost become a hobby for him. He isn’t sure what it is about him that attracts eggs or what it is about them that compels him to help.

Into Hunter’s life now comes Mark, a perfectly average kindergarten teacher who has always lived his life dealing with intrusive thoughts, strange mood swings, and inexplicable sudden changes to his habits. When Mark gets kicked out of his home, he ends up taking the first available room that he can find, becoming Hunter’s new roommate and fast friend.

Hunter knows an egg when he sees one, or at least after he’s read their mind. Although Mark’s thoughts are chaotic, they definitely aren't the kind of thoughts that a normal cis man would have, and when Hunter dives deeper into that mind he’ll find out just how right he is about that.

There’s an entire world inside that mind, full of people that his roommate isn’t aware of, and for Hunter, this might just become the ultimate egg hunt. <<less

I was invited to Inkitt/Galatea.
I will be discontinuing the series here and continuing it on Inkitt.
https://www.inkitt.com/stories/romance/1212820/chapters/1... more>>

A dark romance series with an injection of giants, demons, legend and lore. A radicalized re-telling of the purged stories from the biblical hinterlands that echo forward to haunt Earth in 2023 AD. An echo, that may compel a return to the past.

Deep Dive:
The ancient plains. A unique crack in space and time cracked forth a charismatic "man" so amplified in hunger and stature, that the Great Scribes purged his evils from the Great Books. But this would be in vain. Because, centuries later, he would resurface; convincingly normal.

To violently intersect with a modern woman.

Stories of antiquity and stories of modernity interlace as he begins devouring her world. But, these horrors provide vital clues to his erased story --

-- a story that travels down the threads of many lives, leaping across epochs, generations, continents - *and* timelines to horseshoe with the Great Books.

A story she must demystify, in her bid to slay him. But before she can, she must romance him first.

Lest he lustily eat her, too.

But, he *is* charismatic. And not a man; not entirely.

...and he may have greater designs at play.

Author Note:
All art is mine!
Let's graduate from vampires to.. hungry epochal demons -- with complex story canons. This perilous overlap can create rich grounds for supernatural horror, biblical mythos and even dark romance.

Physics-Breaking, Telekinetic Elemental Teenagers KICK ASS AND FIGHT DRAGONS!... more>>

The focus of the story is Mmanuell Ezenha, a ridiculously egotistical delinquent that hails from a family of Dragon Beacons: traditional mage-warriors who live and fight to fend off recurring plagues of ice-wielding dragons known as "Random Wyvern Events" and prevent these Events from spreading beyond the Cryotian Tundra.

The threat of another Event looms, and Mmanuell must train to live up to the prestige of his ancestors. Once he gains the ability to use Magic, that is. Even then, he'd probably only take the potentially world-ending disaster seriously if he can use it as an excuse to show off...

He's...kind of a difficult boy. We'll see how he does though.

King's Agency has been described as:
"Akame ga Kill if it was good"
"Genshin Impact meets Monster Hunter"
