Aria, old grand-mage, enters seclusion to bring her spells to the next level. She gets interrupted by her grand daughter. A short story.

(A What If Story)
A Nikke, who is known first and foremost as an assassin felt that you a commander of Nikkes needs to practice... more>> role play? In this branching story, D of Perilous Siege asks you to role play with her in order to hone you skills as an actor. This short series will be a simple what if scenario if things got interesting the longer the role play went on. This is my interpretation based off of events based on the "Kill the Lord" event in Nikke: Goddess of Victory. In this story, D and the commander stumble upon a dangerous series of events that involves trafficking of Nikkes, government corruption, and the true essence of what it means to be a human living in the world of Nikke. <<less

(A/N) This is a small story inspired by Pr1vateLime's series on kingsmouth island challenge (made in the game project zomboid) and a "what if" about the reaction of some normal dudes in front of Claudette's insane achievement.

Tyra Blood-Fire didn’t want just any crew.... more>>

Bandits never built Great houses. They have no structure, organization, nor legacy. They had few tactics in the field and little design for the future. Worst of all they had no loyalty beyond filling their own pockets. A bandit clan was a pack of stray dogs fighting for scraps, willing to bite the hand if it dared to feed them.

Growing up in Balmora, Tyra knew that the Great Houses of her world were built on blood. Yet as an orphan child and a Human amongst Dark Elves, her concept of family was one forged from experience. It wasn't the bandits and cutthroats, but the loners and outcasts she identified with most. So when she picked out the crew that would become the Crimson Dirks, she sought out the qualities that best defined herself.

What she wanted were survivors. <<less
