Unending ocean Riding the waves forever Who will I become? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1JjOpXsJ7A To Whomever Finds This Message: I do not know who I am. I have given myself my own name: Nathan Farman, a generic pseudonym well suited for the multifaceted being I have become. And yet it...

Once in a Blue Moon Chapter One The year is 3025. The streets of Sturgis shimmer under a harsh desert sun, its once-proud skyline now standing as a stark reminder of the Inner Sphere's decline into barbarism. The shattered remnants of industrial districts serve as shelter for the planet's...

Prologue: Part I Date: December 27, 2766 Location: Unity City, Terra Terran Hegemony She blinked at the screen in front of her, a heavy breath leaving her lungs as she fought for the letters to stop blurring together. Rolling her chair back a bit, she laid her head down on the handbuilt...

This is a story written back in 2020-2021 out of the unrestrained whimsy of my heart, now crossposted to SV out of the realization that I never got around to that. Also I made the executive decision to de-silly the kerbal appearance just a little bit here back innaday. Originally beta'd by...

You step out of the Asagi trim '88 Shebi Frigate, closing the door carefully as the 32-year-old limited edition sports car settles, the skirt resting gently on the ground. It's a 32-year old classic with a rarely-seen indigo scaling pattern and bright orange skirt designed to mimic a rare and...

Space Neo-Feudalism, Ho! Chapter One Recette grinned deviously as Tear laid out their latest haul from the Dungeons. With her debts to Terme Financial finally paid off, any profits going forward would go straight into her coffers! Speaking of... "Gasp!" Recette shouted, pointing at one of...

Prologue; Haunted in Memory The dreams haunted him once more, flashing through his mind, fire, thunder and the sight of an entire Choir levelled before him, the memories flashed back and forth, the coral eruption cleansing so much from his memory that it was difficult to even piece together...

------------------------------------- Nexus of Fate Volume I - Prologue ------------------------------------- Again... she could do nothing but watch as it all happened again — a helpless captive of her own subconscious... The crimson light in her eyes flickered in a desperate attempt to keep...

So this is a companion piece to Die Rettungsaktion, and was one of the best-written parts of the Shattered Sphere 2020 game IMHO. Most of it was posted for that game but there's a bunch of threads in that subforum, plus the thread itself included minor bits to reflect upon in-game mechanics and...

So I figured I'd try to get something done and start posting more Concertverse stories. As a foreword, while I have done some new scenes and editing, most of the content in this short story is from almost three years ago, written in August-September 2020 by myself and Fulton for the game that...

A/N: Should I be doing this instead of updating... Literally  any of my other neglected Quests? Probably not. Am I doing it anyway? You bet your Timber Wolves I Am. In the year 2440, Mankind is at war. For decades now, the Great Houses—powerful dynastic empires which control hundreds of...

Some of this material was already posted in the story thread for "Emergence". Since that story's done I figured I'd compile things in a new thread with the appropriate sourcebook presentation. Because I am a nerd. This includes some new (if briefer) fluff accounts of events in this timeline...

"..ake…" Pain encompassed his body, a burning sensation that suffused his body with agony. Consciousness was a curse, not a blessing, as the only thing he could even be aware of was the fire in his blood, in his cells, as writhes in pain. Worse than the accumulations of old age, worse than...

Edge of the Inner Sphere A BattleTech Quest Camila couldn't help but shudder in disgust. While this was merely the latest in a long line of dilapidated hellholes ROM had sent her to... it really did hurt the soul to see people living in such conditions. She clapped her hands on her cheeks...

So back in January I was in a story-telling mood in Discord, and in a private message chat with a friend who'd participated in the GSRPG that gave rise to the Concertverse AU I've been bugging you lot with, I related an incident I'd previously touched in brief when doing the histories of the...

The clock has struck one minute past midnight, and the 31st century sees the eternal war between the vainglorious and sneering lords high in their ivory towers continue ever onwards, ever more brutal in the lives destroyed, ever more horrific in the weapons deployed to snuff out the innocents...

There were rumors, as there always are, of top secret Terran Hegemony programs that produced advanced AI which could pilot BattleMechs that could compete against even the most elite Mechwarriors. Some spoke of drone mechs following the lead of the SDS Caspar program, allowing the Terran...

Castrum Keep, Priori Kerensky Cluster, Clan Homeworlds 12 June 3046 The bite of cold air stung against Chris' exposed face as he left the cabin, closing the door softly so as not to wake his mother or Dane. Not that the bottles that had accumulated on the table suggested that either was likely...

Cordia City, Coromodir Aurigan Reach, Aurigan Coalition 1st January 3020 My father had been hit by a hover truck literally and I had been hit by one metaphorically. Though Tamati Kalani had technically been my stepfather, he was the man who raised me and so I considered him my father. He had...

Three years ago the Federated Suns made an attempt to attack our world with three regiments. Thanks to preparations, fortification efforts, aid from the Taurians and our allies, and long standing military formations, they did not find the immediate victory they sought. Battles in the void broke...

This is not a fix fic. Well, it is, but we're not here to fix the political machinations of the Great Powers of the Inner Sphere. No. We're here to fix the engineering and technology of the Inner Sphere. Have you ever noticed how a lot of the early designs are less capable than 21st Century...

The Dance of Empires [A Battletech Empire Building Quest!] The Rise and Fall of Empires are predicated on the strength of their people. The ability of its Economy and the Will of its Leader. The Inner Sphere is no stranger to the rise and fall of powerful men and women and the states they...

Order from Chaos Chapter 1.01: Arrival and Settling Down. Edited: 11/26/23 ————————————————— "Where the hell am I?" A young voice asked into the vast world. If one were looking in this snow-covered plain, one would see a teenager dressed in an orange overall with safety equipment on his belt...

I've written a few things. Some good, some not-so-good. But what I do know is that before I can write about a setting, I need to have a decent idea of said setting- and while I have a fascinating idea where to put a story, I don't know enough to simulate the setting correctly. Specifically, I...
