So, I'm finally crossposting this from Wordpress onto here, in an effort to get more reader feedback. My plan is to, from here on out, post a few parts every day until I'm caught up with where I am on Wordpress. That being said... Enjoy. So. I’ve had one hell of a day. It was a Thursday, of...

A long time ago, the United States was a land of vast opportunity and prosperity. The United States of America is a 50-province strong political entity on the continent of North America, with possessions in the Pacific and Caribbean, and claims dominion over 128 million souls. Depending on who...

A/N Howdy and welcome to a new quest. I am a huge fan of the Xianxia genre and have decided to run a new Xianxia inspired quest. Knowledge of the genre is preferred but not necessary to enjoy this quest. If you read this and have an account, taking a moment to vote would be well appreciated. Any...

Your name is Sugar Honey. This is your story. Your earliest memory is Pink. Pinker than Pink. Like you was drownin' in it or something. But you know what? You fuckin' love Pink. You basically bleed the stuff! 'Cause the world? It ain't pink, its basically the opposite and it sucks wicked...

It all happened so suddenly, really. One moment, you were there at Ace Chemicals, dressed in the ever so ridiculous garb of the Red Hood. Turns out, hehe, that the Red Hood isn’t even one person! What a joke! The next moment, you were falling, knocked astray of the guard rails meant...

Inspired by Sactioned/Calibration/It's Not Wrong by @Alivaril. There was some interest in this being continued, so I'm just gonna make a thread for it and we'll see what kind of update rate it gets(Hint, probably won't be anwhere as fast as PDR was). Not a quest, but there I'll be reading...

The Dead Man never imagined his life would become one of those awful Anime's his roommate liked to watch. But... To be fair he also hadn't imagined his own life ending in one of the same exact 'cliches' that same exact roommate had insisted on lecturing him about despite his insistence that he...

AN: As with It’s Not Wrong, this isn’t an actual fusion. There’s just overlap, similarity, lies, and misinterpretation. Knowledge of @Avalanche's quest BAHHSCQ isn’t required (especially since liberties have been taken), but is highly recommended; it’s an excellent read and you’ll probably enjoy...

I am incapable of focusing on a single project more than a couple of weeks at a time it seems... So... Welcome, I guess! To this semi-SI story set in Avatar: The Last Airbender. I hope it is an unorthodox enough idea to capture your interest, because I haven't seen enough people doing something...

Author's Note: This was originally compiled in my snippet thread, but was getting too large to keep it there. It's also closer to "crack treated seriously" or “crack played straight” than Sanctioned was, but I'm having a lot of fun with it anyway. Feedback is greatly appreciated. Knowledge of...

A change had come to the world and whether they knew it or not, an act has occured and changed the fate of life for all. Yet the first being visible sign of that change was the Fairy Knight. A scion of magic and man, a being of two worlds whose mere presence had been the falling domino. Now...

"A revolution can be neither made nor stopped. The only thing that can be done is for one of several of its children to give it a direction by dint of victories." -Napoléon Bonaparte ||||||La Chanson de la Victoire|||||| Once upon a time, there was a man who rose from nothing to cast a shadow...

Civilisation has lasted for over two thousand years from the ancient days where tribes wandered without a place to call home to the modern era of trade, diplomacy and metal. It was two thousand years ago that Arthryn taught farming to her chosen people and the ancient city of Greenbay was...

I'll make no promises with what I write, no beta reader aside from G-Docs. I remember spying somewhere that SIs can be self-indulgent and set the person up to be all powerful and fix-it Sue's right from the start but that isn't really my aim. This is more of a self-study with a sort of clean...

Introduction In his youth, Opernus Prentigold was one of the mightiest wizards in the Sambian Empire, a hero of numerous wars against barbarian tribes, renowned for his awesome and terrifying magic powers. Even now, though his body has been ravaged by fire and old age, he remains an imposing...

The world was changing and the People were unsure of what to do. The monsters were gone for now, but who knew when they would return? The old lands may be safe for not, but the villages were in ruin and nobody knew how long the safety would last. The old stories claimed that there were times...

***** ***** 'Cases of hidden quirks have, in the last forty year,s dropped by over sixty percent but this raises the question of why? By their very nature, these quirks require very specific triggers to activate and seventy-five percent of reported cases have been traumatic incidents. It should...

The Collapse of the Old World happened twenty-eight years ago. As someone who was born sixty years ago, you have had the misfortunate to live through it. A loyal subject and patriot of your King and Country, you did your best to hold things together since the Collapse, refusing to let the...

“Saiyans. To some, a blight upon the galaxy. To others? An incredibly intriguing case of mystery. Such powerful warriors, so full of pride, and yet? Unwilling to see their own flaws. In some words, arrogant. Hmph. Not every Saiyan I have encountered has been like this, young one. You see, I am a...

Brief Synopsis: The long reign of Stjepan I Držislav was a fruitful one for the Kingdom of Croatia, but the issue of succession had become an ominous threat for his realm, as there were three brothers vying for their chance to shine and continue their father's legacy. Svetoslav, the eldest...

You are a standard hikkikomori NEET; a recluse, spending barely any time out of the house, and instead you spend the time wasting away your days. Your typical day consists of waking up, gaming, surfing the internet, and sleeping. You have nothing special about yourself - no superpowers, nothing...

Victoria Falls As the 21st Century wore on, things got worse and worse for the United States. The nation suffered waves of political instability, was ravaged by powerful new medicine-resistant plagues, and endured runaway hyperinflation on a heretofore unknown scale. This chaos spread across...

QM's Note: I messed up with the first attempt at a Green mage quest several years ago, so this is my attempt at a new one. The following will inevitably be rather dry; since the choice of secondary mana color is going to affect the PC's personality, I'm confined to exposition until that's taken...

Life isn’t fair, you think to yourself. It had been three weeks since your mother died, leaving you all alone in the world. Your mother had raised you all by herself after your dad died. You were little then and barely remembered him. She was all you had. Will you eventually forget her face as...
