That boy was supposed to save our world from the wrath of the Demon King. And while the King is dead, an even worse threat has arisen: the boy himself! I don't know how he came to this world, but I'm going to be the one to take him out of it. The only problem is, I've heard he's super strong. As...

Forget Me – Part 1 Ice crunched beneath Mishka's heavy, stompy boots as she made her way through the frozen greenhouse. The air was jaggedly cold, a thousand tiny needles that dug into every inch of exposed skin. The room was filled with the scent of flowers, sweet and floral, but beneath which...

A foot slams down, grinding my shoulder. “Gambler who schemes behind the scenes,” I lift my eyes to the dragon’s scornful gaze. “Fortune has abandoned you, a flame on a frozen field.” The scythe presses sharp against my neck. Blood snows from hell. Hell now and then, hell ever after. This...

Ok so I, well I won't say I created the setting because it's pretty heavily inspired by a game or project called Jinn Hunter. The creator's YouTube channel is called Venom Moe and they even have a game on steam! I hope it's different enough to not be a straight up ripoff but ehh. I'm sourcing...

Chapter 1: You! Yes, You! This is a story about a strange/sad/frustrating/desperate/crushing series of events all leading up to the moment where a few simple choices are made. Choices that may or may not affect more than just that world and the universes around it. Such choices were the...

Ever heard a really good song with a clear story behind it and been like 'wow that song would make a great book' well, that happened to me 2 days ago... so... one weekend and several other ongoing projects taking a back seat later... here we are folks, a brand new world-building-bible complete...

The ritual had gone wrong, no glorious ascension, no acceptance from the Pale Ones, not enough power to do that, just a fool who dug too deep into the clockwork behind reality and got punished for it Too close to the sun The body aches, back somewhat brusied from falling back, a small cut on...

Sci Fi Idea I've been toying with, strangely inspired by mitochondria. Humanity creates superpowerful AI's, and rather than constrain them as servants with Asimov's Three Laws, or going to war with them like Terminator, they accept that this new form of intelligence is superior, and will always...

Liskaet. A vast and rich continent overwhelming in history and influential figures. Although the Hero of Light and his party are the most acclaimed, there are others who seek to carve their own path in their own journey. While brave heroes and kind hearted citizens seek to live their lives well...

Creation 1: The Elements You are running along a tiled path. In your hands you hold a luminescent orb, and behind you bay a pack of dragon hounds. You slipped past them to enter the vault they were guarding and stole the seed of life. Now they want to tear your flesh from your bones. Each one...

It seems that sometimes the best cure for writer's block is to write something completely different. Or so, that is the hope at least. In any case, I have a number of miscellaneous ideas that do not warrant becoming their own full projects, but which I still wished to write out in some form, so...

It was night time in the facility, I would tell you where it was but even I don't know, the alarms were blaring, multiple people were dead on the ground, torn to bits by a pale hairless creature that looks like if someone tried to stretch out a human being into the shape of a mantis, coughing...

The year is SR 1020. The Little War (for this was no Great War) has come and gone and left the land of Kallarai not scarred, but pockmarked. Neither the Confederacy of Azharach nor any of the Locust Territories were particularly harmed, no great incursion deep into enemy territory. No, instead...

The Monday city, a bustling metropolis established in the middle of Aria. It was a giant of steel and glass. With towering skyscrapers and millions of people living in it. “After the emergence of the Red Moon, it's reported that there are a huge number of strange incidents happening. The...

What year does this take place in? [ ] December 1978 - A month after the release of Space Invaders and it looks to be uttering in a golden age for arcade games…Your company wants in on the golden pot! By the way, how do you make games? [ ] June 1985 - A twinkle enters the eye of your big boss...

Chapter 1 The Vision A black shape looms between sand and sky, occluding the stars. A great pyramid of purest darkness, drinking in the light from the heavens and the earth. Its obsidian faces seem to know no end, its height immeasurable by any rule. The observer had some vague memory of...

The world we live in is not as special as we would like to think. A discovery in a remote lab in 2038 briefly connected to a different world. As more data was gathered, an unexpected picture was made: a theoretically infinite number of layers lay suspended underneath our dimension. As resource...

You screamed your lungs out. You scratched against the metal of your steel coffin until your finger bled. You kicked and thrashed and generally tried to make noise, to get attention, to get help. No one helped. You're pretty sure you passed out at some point. But between the vomit, the blood...

Up until yesterday, Mark would have been truthfully able to say that he never had been arrested, but sadly, today that statement would make him a liar. He wondered if an extra-terrestrial arrest would go his record, if he was ever able to go back home? After all, not everyone could claim to...

Welcome to Card-Magic Quest! The way this is going to work is a little bit inspired from Slay the spire and various other deckbuilder/rogue-like games I have played and seen. The Majority of this quest will take place through a Weekly Schedule, where you will allocate some number of actions to...

You are a Lynx. You are a cyborg. You are a pilot. You are a war machine. You are the result of a twelve-year-long project to create the next generation of mech pilots by leapfrogging cybernetics and mech technology at the same time. You were adopted from an orphanage, parents lost to a...

The End Times came and went. Mankind refused to bend to the whims of a far away god and worked to cast down those above them. Now Satan lies dead, killed by a missile strike, with Hell's armies shattered by humanity's guns. From the corpse strewn fields of along the Phlegethon, to the Swamps of...
