villain protagonist

Today my mother died. It was almost a relief, in a strange way. There was no going back; why fret over what was already decided, then? There had to be something at least a little screwed up, though, about technically breaking into the study of an ancient evil wizard uninvited bringing a sense...

For a moment, there is darkness, and nothing but darkness. Darker then even the cold between stars. There is nothing, for you are nothing. And you are nothing, because you fell. It was a worthy death, someone might say. Perhaps you could have said it, when you were something, when you were...

This is going to be a viking quest where your character goes around raiding and pillaging places so he can get loot and gain prestige to grow stronger. He will be something of a villain protagonist or at least morally grey because people are complex and I'm aiming for the Norse in this quest to...

=== Introduction, The General Election of 1948 === It was Spring 1947 when the guns finally fell silent across the world. The hammer and sickle flag flew high across Europe. From Moscow to Paris, Rome, Stockholm, and Istanbul, and everything else in between. The Axis laid dead, defeated by the...

I've been sent to Hell, which is weird, since my people don't even really believe in it. It's not your Aligheri-esque sort of hell, with the fire and brimstone and ironic punishments -- though with enough HE, you get the former in the game, and I suppose it's ironic that I go from my day job of...

Arc One - Apéritif I roll the dice, and they come up all sixes. The room erupts into jeers, but I smile a crooked smile anyways. “YAHTZEE, BITCHES!” I holler, grabbing a pen and jotting down fifty points on my scorecard. Witty -as we all usually call him, as a jab at his lacking wit- speaks...

For generations, the twin cities of dawn and dusk have stood on either side of the sunlit river. Dawn City has been a place of prosperity and wealth while Dusk City has been a dark place, where the less fortunate strike out a living. Now a new era is coming to two cities and the rest of the...

You are the End You are Hungry You are Manifest You appear in a swirling vortex of magick. Solidifying into a rough mass of energy with a serpentine body. Before you there is another creature, some sort of rodent? Hard to tell without any vital organs for senses. Never the less, you are...

I will do a minor rewrite of the chapters on SpaceBattles before posting them here. For the millionth time, I turned to stare at the door, expecting someone to jump out and scare me. But instead of a boogeyman, it would be a hero tackling me down and arresting me. I sighed. I took another wad...

Noah finally made it past the mind detectors, bio detectors, and other portal station security measures. Most people would feel relief at being done with the whole tedious process, but not him. He felt a deep hopelessness that overshadowed his other emotions. After all, he was one step closer...

CW: This work deals with many mature and potentially triggering themes, such as slavery, abuse, transphobia, mental illness, fascism, assault, gaslighting, mental illness, torture, and sexual assault. Readers are advised to take care of themselves as they enjoy the story. First of all, if...

Introduction I watched the pale winter sun set over Boston. Slow, but inevitable, until it finally dipped behind the city and the rays of sunlight caressing my cold face were filtered through the massive skyscrapers dominating the background. Sunlight reflected off of the pristine snow covering...

Ever since you were a child, crammed in your room reading the weekly comics, you had always dreamed of becoming not a paragon of virtue, but a SUPERVILLAIN!!! (CRACKATHOOM!!) Why? You don't really know, but those fine details don't really matter in the long run, so you can ignore those for...

We know the story of the heroes. They do good things, save people, and the person anyone count on. But this isn't about the heroes, this is about you. Your name is Ventus. And your the underling of the bad guy. Your boss is: []: The Queen Of Darkness Eclipsea: she's the classic magical girl...

D'un ton criard, Dai, le petit nom de Dawid s'était exclamée; - vous n'avez aucune preuve contre nous et nous sommes riches, la loi interdis l'arrestation des milliardaires... Ils n'eût le temps de finir qu'il se prend une mouche électrique sur la plante du cou, faut dire que c'est pas une...

Fate turned out to be cruel and merciful to me at the same time, for it chose the fate that I dreamed of, but measured out a huge time. I saw and remember how the bombs fell. How the last remnants of civilization in post-war America died. How the few survivors died of disease and radiation in a...

Hello, and welcome to the first piece of fiction I've ever posted online! My name is Pen Pirate, but you can call me Penny. I'm an amateur writer, obviously, so this may not be the highest quality fiction around. You were warned, so don't complain when I write 'backed' instead of 'baked' :wink...

AN: This one is very much a slow burn. "…was right about you, Benjamin! God, I was such a fool for not listening to him!" A twenty-six-year-old woman, pretty and with chestnut brown hair, desperately bit on her lower lip. With her elbows resting on a shoddy wooden table, she held one hand...

A mere 60 years after quirks began to become ‘normal’… you started to become… understanding of society’s state of being. That the laws had returned, that chaos was coming back down… that people were hopeful again… what a self taught life that society was desperately wanting. You on the other...

—— CHAPTER 1 [Coming up with titles is tough, so I will only name those who I can think of easily] —— Whatever anyone might say… money— is great. Who didn't like to sit in a car whose seats felt more like the most comfortable of sofas rather than normal car seats, where with the press of a...

Jack Spicer was many things. Determined, kind of a loser (not that he would admit it), AN EVIL BOY GENIUS! But he was most proud of being a member of the Heylin Empire! ….At least until he wasn't anymore. Jack had pushed his luck too far, he supposed. Who knew making a Robot Chase Young...

With a bolt of lightning. You awakens. What a nap, so many years has passed since the last time you have open your empty eyes? By the smell of the air… at least 200? 300? You really cannot tell… That nose of yours has been gone for a long time, But that clear smell of flowers and trees... A...

=== Kari === I was seven the first time I saw him. The shy boy sitting out on his porch. I was on the street on my bike. I had biked past where I was really supposed to. My neighborhood had such even streets. These streets down here had bumpier roads, which were always more fun to ride on...

A knight ascends the stairs leading up to the top of the tower, with sounds of cheering and cellabration coming from the glittering silver city, loud enough that he can even hear it from thousands of feet above it all. However he doesn't care about any of that, not now, they haven't won yet.. As...
