    Summary

    "I was right there!" - Astarion.

    Sometimes seeking out new experiences might not what you expecting. After installing a secret mod, I found myself within the Forgotten Realms, for real, fighting for my life and for those adorable companions that we meet along the way.

    It is also said that a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing as events depicted within a video game aren't necessarily going to be the ones you are expecting to encounter. Starting with a heavily modded custom honour mode run might not have been the smartest idea after all. Still, I get to meet and be with the amazing people who just need a little help from a friend.

    A/N ~ if you are reading this you've most likely played the game and will have a good idea as to what happens within the progression of the game.

    This is an ongoing, serialised novel that seeks to cover the majority of the story.

    A first person narrative which I've chosen to create, taking a journey where the parameters of the game no longer matter or are applicable. The encounters and major events of BG3 are mostly the same as you would expect yet circumstances and choices made in the story drastically alter future events and outcomes.

    Enjoy

    Summary

    Sinnoh is a nation held together by controlled violence and carefully managed lies, and Dawn Berlitz has spent ten years mastering both. She has fought the League's wars, buried its secrets, and writ its will across the Pokémon world. As Captain Platinum of Strike Force Victory, she is her nation's most renown warrior.

    She doesn't sleep. She hears things she shouldn't. She forgets things she knows she did herself. Somewhere, a ticking clock strikes midnight, and Sinnoh's hour is at hand.

    Inspired by 'A Game of Champions', by Lamora.

    Summary

    Mahoutokoro doesn't teach you magic. It teaches you how to be a weapon.

    Kieran Morgan returned to Britain as a stranger, bearing the cold discipline of the Jade Halls and the invisible scars of a tragedy he refuses to name. To the students of Hogwarts, he is an enigma—a boy who bows too low, speaks too formally, and moves with the lethal precision of a predator.

    He wanted to survive his final years in the shadows. He didn't expect Hermione Granger.

    Guided by her relentless sense of justice and a memory of the boy Kieran used to be, Hermione is the only one who refuses to look away from his trembling hands and haunted eyes. As the Triwizard Tournament turns the school into a political minefield, she becomes his unlikely bridge back to humanity.

    But with ancient conspiracies stirring and the graveyard calling, Kieran’s deadly skills might be the only thing keeping his friends alive—if his own broken psyche doesn't shatter first.

    What to expect:

    A grounded, psychological take on the Wizarding World.

    Slow-burn, canon-compliant character dynamics (In-depth Hermione).

    High-stakes action rooted in Mahoutokoro discipline.

    No Harem. No easy fixes for trauma.

    Summary

    It is the 33rd Millenium.

    The Milky Way Galaxy is currently in a state of total war.

    For the last ten thousand years, both The Imperium and the Empire of Sororum were at major peace upon their first contact. But by the 22nd Millenium, the Sororium Empire had ruthlessly invaded their long-time neighbors. But defiance ensues, and the Imperium pushes back and is now entering the territories of the Sororium Empire.

    With both fronts grinding to a halt, more chaos erupted across the Milky Way. From threats of alien forces and literal demons from Hell, those who were civilized enough began to question why Sororum invaded the Imperial Worlds.

    Specifically two soldiers began to question their doctrines.

    We follow the story of two supersoldiers: Adrian Solarius and Astrid Schneider; one a Thunder Marine who was born into war, and the other a Shepherdess Ultima Soldier who joined for a purpose.

    With the two proclaimed as either heretics or traitors to their empires, they—alongside only allies they can muster up—must venture across a wartorn Galactic Front in the hopes of proving their innocence against zealots and agents.

    If the Emperor can’t protect them—hopefully their gods can.

    Summary

    Your genetics aren't designed for a citizen's arrest, Mark. They're coded for conquest and extermination. You're terrified of the brutality living in your marrow. You repress it. But the day your people land, that human morality will make you hesitate for a microsecond. And in that microsecond, they'll tear your head off."

    In the wake of Chicago’s ruin and Omni-Man’s betrayal, Mark Grayson isn't found by the GDA. Instead, he is dragged into a rotting basement by Nicholas Greengrass—a youth hiding the blood of a Major Demon behind a mask of marble and onyx. Using ancient sorcery and the alien furnace of Mark’s metabolism as a fission battery, Nicholas rebuilds the fallen hero’s body, forging a tense bond built on cold pragmatism and mutual hostility.

    Mark fights to remain the man his father couldn't be. Nicholas, however, wages a private war against his own corrosive shadow, clinging to the only human anchor he has left: Julian.

    But in a universe of multiversal chaos, normalcy is a fragile illusion with an expiration date. When tragedy strikes and the world corners them, they will discover that the only force capable of containing a monster is the darkness of another

    Summary

    On a frozen front where survival is measured in shared body heat and borrowed time, Imperial Guardswoman Lysa Dorne learns the unofficial rule of the line: find someone whose heartbeat you don’t mind hearing beside yours when the shells fall.

    The veterans of the 212th call it trench marriage—a simple agreement between soldiers to keep each other alive through one more night of cold, artillery, and impossible odds.
    For Trooper Dorne, what begins as a way to survive the war slowly becomes something hard to carry—and harder to give up.
