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.

Reality is not so rigidly defined.... more>>

Yuki Hayashi was a normal high school student with too many books and a few more quips about clichés. His meeting the strange teenage soldier, Ayumi, reveals imagination is a power they can wield to alter reality. Now faced with assassins and political machinations, he must learn how to control his wild power before something far worse happens.

Inspired by battle manga from Shounen Jump, Shift is a serialized long form story with a large cast of unique characters. Genre hopping, Shift is a battle adventure that pays homage to the classics while also breaking away from common tropes. <<less

Everyone has a story to tell, made from the moments in the lives we share. Consequently, every person has their own perspective, their own subjective experiences, and thereby, their own subjective realities. Even if the exact same story is told by two people, the details from one will differ in the other.... more>>

Reed and Lumina share their lives together, but each of them came from different backgrounds; each of them went through their own unique experiences. Reed is a human being like everyone else on Earth. Lumina is an Altiri, like every one in Genosis. Both are aliens to their own world, and both have seen their own source of immense darkness in their time.

The other side of the same story might sound similar at a quick glance, but in the depths of every personal reality, very little is ever the same. Welcome to the far side of the universe, in a safe corner of the world you've probably heard nothing about. Welcome ~ to Genosis. Welcome ~ to The Other Side. <<less

Dave died and surprisingly reincarnated with all his memories.... more>>

Unfortunately, it seems to be earth. Japan to be specific. Naruki City. Hmm sounds vaguely familiar. Maybe it was on the news or something. Oh well. Worse yet he has to learn Japanese from scratch, he has no special powers or system. What kind of lame reincarnation is this? No isekai, no powers, no system? Why even reincarnate. Also it seems to be the past, no smartphone and computers are backwards as all hell. Things just can't be worse.

That is until he unfortunately dies again. However as he lay there bleeding out and slowly dying he finally realised he wasn't reincarnated on the real Earth. This was the world of Bleach and he was attacked by White and infected by his hollowfication poison. Can't he catch a break? He doesn't even get a chance to become a regular spirit and maybe a Shinigami. Just a mindless hollow.

A Steampunk/ Gaslamp Fantasy Romance set in the industrial revolution era of a fictional world.... more>>

Magic, mad science, multicultural ambience, and political intrigue all tightly laced up into one corset and powered by the steam of two romances - one F/M and one M/M.

Intended for mature audiences, 18+.

~~~*~~~

All creations carry a trace of the maker's ethereal energy, whether deliberately placed in the magical Artifacts made by the Alchemists, or unwittingly left in the handiwork of ordinary people.

Kazia can feel that energy, in both machines and people. She may not be able to do any of the grand magic other Alchemists can, but give her a damaged machine and she can trace its energy to the problem, and know precisely how to repair it. She does have one other ability. One far more dangerous. One she will never acknowledge, and will never use.

Fleeing her villainous father rather than becoming his pawn, Kazia finds a peaceful life on a farm in a neighboring country, where no one knows that she is the daughter of Prince Gorvan Devratha. But with war looming between her birth country of Valesk and her new home in Caedra, how long can that peaceful life last?

She can be safe in the Caedran capital, among the Queen's Alchemists, but will anyone there trust her – especially the handsome but embittered Lord Kelvaran Meratha, who suspects Kazia's father of murdering his family?

Abrizhen is Kazia's older brother. He does his best to play the role of the Prince's good son and heir, but when tasked with retrieving his wayward sister, he must return to the city he'd called home for many of his youthful years. There he'll have to reckon with his past, and finally choose between the life of a dutiful prince, or the welfare of his sister – and the rekindling of an old flame.

~~~*~~~

Content/ Mature warnings are on for:

Gore: Nothing terribly extreme. Some bleeding wounds and broken bits, but all limbs remain attached and all innards remain inward.

Sexual Content: It's not all smut all the time, but there is some. I aim for not vague but also not overly lewd. Smut chapters are labeled NSFW. Chapters with very brief smut or just some torrid making out or somesuch are labeled NSFW-ish. All on-screen depictions are consensual, but there are a few passing references to noncon having happened off-screen (not to any MCs).

Strong Language: One character really loves to swear, and could probably construct an entire monologue with just various inflections of the F word. So, yeah, that's on too.

Other CWs: Dark themes (abuse, trauma, ptsd, depression, unhealthy coping mechanisms). Mostly in discussions of past events, but there are a few scenes that may be troubling to some readers. <<less

Root finds himself in a cultivation world- Hey, at least he has a system!... more>>

[What to expect?]
Time skips, fast cultivation, slice of life (a little), lots of kids, some cliff hangers, and defying of cultivation rules and logic- This is cultivation in a post-apocalyptic world, with changes to the world and those who live in it.

Like, a lot of it.

Cringy cultivator bullshit and talk.
[Romance?]
Maybe, if i feel like it.

[Volume 1] Rosalie Edgeworth: the queen bee of Lassen Academy and Janet Fleming’s two-faced nemesis. Why does the school seem to revolve around Rosalie? How can Prince Blaise not see her for the bitch she really is? And why won’t the Prince even listen to Janet’s side of it? In the aftermath of Rosalie’s latest schemes, Janet finds the answer in unexpected allies: ghost-clones of herself, a weird little-sister shop owner, a bespectacled folklore otaku, a sluggard knight, three ghost-obsessed girls, and two former saintess candidates, among others. Meeting these people leads Janet to the truth about Rosalie’s identity and a dangerous conspiracy surrounding her.... more>>

[Volume 2] Lady Lilian Dorian has been impersonating Rosalie Edgeworth to keep control of the Prince and Classroom 1-3C with rumors, sex, and spells. After uncovering the truth, Janet and her school mates find themselves outnumbered and in need of allies. So they keep a low profile amidst a school investigation as they train their powers with more allies: three talking statuettes, the talking bust of a former knight-at-arms, a talking suit of armor, a duke with a cousin complex, and an overprotective marquess father. Despite the hellish training, Janet plays Lady Dorian’s two-faced game a little too well for Lady Dorian to take things lying down. <<less

I've fallen into another world. A world of monsters. The worst part is, I have become one myself. One dark night, I was hunted by those glowing white eyes. After narrowly surviving, the hunted has become the hunter. I woke up in a dungeon, a mysterious place with its own strange logic. Now I hunt, kill, and FEAST on the flesh of monsters as I struggle to adapt to my new instincts. The hunt, the Umbral Feast, begins.... more>>

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.

Auras. The embodiment of one’s soul. A power that can only be used by a certain few. They grant the user an unique ability that personifies what they are. Some use it for good, others use it for their own gain. No one knows their origin.... more>>

Ymeno is a man who quietly lives his life, going through the motions. He's a 25 year old gardener without an aura who used to be the vigilante known as Ray. The rich but friendly Kane Qur is his newest client. While working for him, he meets two orphans. Magnolia, a little girl with big dreams and a bookworm named Zeki, who's obsessed with the story that every person holds.

What he doesn't know is that accepting this job would start a domino effect that would change his life forever. One that will confront him with the demons of his past. A past he'd rather keep buried forever.

Will the echoes of the past tell him to quit, or will the flame of justice that used to roar inside him be lit once more?

Don't forget the golden rule of this city's wretched underground: the gods are always watching. <<less

In a world teeming with countless continents, races, kingdoms, and empires, only the great lineage clans wielding power and the successors of gods leading religious... more>> factions held sway. Darkness was the enemy of this entire world. But what about a seed cursed by darkness? That's Rauf. A seed cursed by fate, a child that should have never existed. Because in fate, there was neither a path nor a future written for him. Yet even fate had to yield to a mother's defiance. The seed that was never meant to be born grew into a sapling. Now, in this harsh world, he carves his own path, proving that talent isn't everything. His curses, instead of hindering, became a source of power for his purposes. Remember, if you give a knife to someone with a purpose, that knife will achieve its purpose. <<less

Raptured from her normal life, Sally finds herself in a new world of fantasy and adventure. There's just one problem - she's undead. Due to an error, she has been split between Monster and Player, crossing the line between the soulless System-created and the people brought here by the mysterious Architect.... more>>

Her flawed awakening comes a little over three weeks late to the game. With no proper Class, she must use her smarts and guts (not literally) to level up and best the onslaught of Player Parties who see her as nothing more than experience gain and bounty to plunder (literally).

A spurned Cleric out for revenge. Numerous Parties hunting her down. The Adventuring Guild tethering the System in place. All obstacles determined to put her back in the ground. Gathering her own Party of the glitched and the rebellious, she intends to break the System down piece by piece until she can demand answers from the Architect themself. <<less

The Slayer and The Vixen. The world's greatest monster hunter and bounty hunter, respectively. Through their combined efforts, the world has been able to enjoy an era of peace for nearly a decade since the end of The Drazah War. But when their identities and the source of their power is revealed, all of their admiration turns to terror and they're deplored as the worst Fiends alive. Wanting nothing more than to service the world they feel responsible for, the pair must find new ways to help those who fear them. These Fiends are For Hire.... more>>

Fiends For Hire is a Modern Fantasy that is a blend of Action and Slice-of-Life with Anti-Hero leads. The series is currently over 3,500 pages long.

What to expect:

-A lot of Slice-of-Life. This series could be also be known as 'The Daily Lives of Anti-Heroes.' There is still a lot of Action, Comedy, World-Building, and Conflict, but Slice-of-Life is the main focus.

-A slow burn main plot. Not every chapter may seem like it's building towards the ultimate end, and some are just for fun. But virtually every chapter has new lore, world-building, character development, and/or subtle clues hinting at the mysteries of the series.

-Overpowered and Eccentric Characters with a lot of unique abilities. As the series progresses, OP vs OP fights and conflict become more common.

-Some very wholesome and some very dark moments. They are Anti-Heroes after all, so you get the good and the bad.

This series is NOT:
-Progression Fantasy -LitRPG -Cultivation -Isekai -Harem
