Warframe: Earth-Bet Protocol by W_InhumanMan

01 May 2026
Tags
Summary
When a routine mission through the Void takes a disastrous turn, a lone Tenno finds himself stranded in a universe not his own—one without Orokin tech, without allies, and teeming with unstable powers called "parahumans." Cut off from the Origin System and with no way home, the Operator must adapt, infiltrate, and survive in this fractured new world. But Earth-Bet has secrets of its own and not all of them are eager to stay buried.
Caught between old instincts and new rules, one Tenno walks the thin line between Warrior and Hero, searching for a path back while leaving a mark that won't be easily forgotten.

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
[Dark Slavic Fantasy | Grimdark & Gore ] WEEKLY UPDATES: THURSDAYS
Nayden's fingers slipped on his slashed side, blood leaking between them.
"This is only... a test," the boy rasped, staring at the ash-choked sky. "The Light will..."
The Whisperer stepped back, avoiding the sticky red cobblestones.
"The puddle beneath you has a different opinion," he noted dryly. "Your god is silent. With a hole in your gut, you have minutes left. Try not to bleed on my boots."The Gods didn’t just abandon us. They left us to be eaten.
When a failed ritual summons the Zmey, prayers to Perun become worth less than gutter mud. The age-old war between the Solar Order and the Whisperers fades into the background.
Nayden, a soldier who survived by a "pathetic error," must ally with his enemy. The cynical Whisperer, hiding his magic's toll behind a mask, sees the boy as an anomaly to be ruthlessly used—or broken.
Surviving this rotting world is merely the beginning. Within their forced alliance lurks a darker psychological game of sadistic devotion and toxic manipulation, ready to devour them both.
Or: Body horror, collateral damage, and heroes who are just monsters with better PR.

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.
