[I died and was accidentally reborn as an angelic monstrosity, so now I’m building a holy dungeon-tower that is tall enough to reach the gods; so that I can complain about it! But the humans think that I am trying to destroy the world.]
The senselessness of so much of the world’s death and suffering is made apparent to the dying paladin, Isaiah, in his final moments before he perishes and is, shortly thereafter, reborn into a comparatively quiet and peaceful existence as a simple blackbird.
However, the powerful magic of the god whom Isaiah himself had served in his prior human life upends this latest existence, as a spell goes awry, turning the entity instead into a strange, angelic monstrosity that is neither man nor animal.
Isaiah, desperate to return to its simple life as a blackbird, sets out to build the tallest tower ever seen by the eyes of the world in order to reach the reclusive gods who reside in the heavens above and make them undo the transformation in a bid to allow itself an escape from the complex suffering of intelligent, self-aware mortality.
[Dungeon-Core] [litRPG] [Base-building]
A wise man once said all roads lead to Rome. He didn’t know how right he was.
Ripped away from the battlefield, Tiberius and his six thousand Roman Legionnaires unexpectedly find themselves stranded in a foreign land of magic and witchcraft. With no way home, their path forward is obvious: conquer everything in sight.
Much to the chagrin of Marcus—the poor, unsuspecting bard who summoned them.
But taking over the world is not so easy. In order to stake their claim, the Legion will need to learn how to navigate the strange magics and abilities this new world has granted them. Abilities which, upon closer inspection, may prove the seed for a legend in the making…
The dawn of a new empire looms on the horizon. Rome will rise anew as they seize cities, battle armies, and expand their territory across this strange and fantastical world. All the while, Marcus will need to figure out how to mitigate the force of nature he's unleashed upon his woefully unprepared world. That, or simply enjoy the front row seat to an epic in the making. Someone will need to tell the story, and who better aside from him?
The die has been cast. The aqueducts are being built. And Rome will once more see glory.
Follow Nero’s journey through a world filled with every fantasy imaginable, while being stuck in a city filled with only humans. Watch as he struggles to understand how magic works, and what reality looks like when it’s based on fantasy instead of physics.
He’ll have to face a society focused on self-improvement and cooperation. Suffer the horror of competent administration. Persevere through the indignity of living in a world where people’s opinions are based on rational arguments.
Although Nero’s past life hadn’t prepared him for the challenges he’ll face, he won’t face them alone. He will find allies to assist him, mentors to guide him, even a few fans. There will be villains and threats, heroes and training. But mostly, it will be Nero trying to ignore what’s going on around him while focusing on learning magic.
The world is big, and there are characters aplenty. As time goes on, the story will grow. The leveling system may seem simple at first, but it's soon revealed to be so complex that our hero will do everything he can to ignore it, regardless of the consequences.
If you enjoy watching an internet troll with a heart of fool's gold be forced to grow up by circumstance and the influence of those around him, then this story will be worth your time. Just don't get your hopes up, our main character isn't ready for that kind of responsibility.

- Cliche villains and heroes
- To read the whole book without chuckling
Book 1 [Formerly Gilgamesh] is now stubbed and available on Kindle Unlimited and Audible: HERE!
Torn from his life by gods capricious and cruel, he is thrust into their Divine games in a strange new world.
His name stolen, he resolves to call himself after the first and greatest of all heroes—Gilgamesh. However, corrupted by his new powers, he slowly walks the path of darkness and damnation as he kills for pleasure and power. The more he kills, the more willing he becomes to continue the slaughter as he brings the evils of his old world to the new.
For his dark destiny, long foretold, leads down a path of darkness and horror.
Such is the fate of the Watcher of Deep Places.
[An Epic LITRPG with an unrepentantly evil MC]
**Very slow-burn with genociding, godslaying payoff**
[Warning: An unpleasant and very flawed MC who slowly gets worse. He is NOT a hero.]
Do not expect;
*A main character who does not need to struggle for anything.
*A meaningless leveling process.
*No bags of holding, instant inventory, telepathic party chat, instant fast travel, and a helpful system (or a fairy guide that explains everything).
*LitRPG elements that are so complicated that they distract from the story.
*Artificial mercy.
*On-the-nose political or social messaging.
*Harems.
*A main character who can do everything and is loved by everyone.
Expect;
*An introduction to a beautiful world steeped in the influence of the steppe, middle-eastern, and Asian cultures.
*A hopefully subtle discourse on the nature of evil and the corrupting influence of power.
*A realistic depiction of how a person would react to suddenly being transported to an alien world to fight at the behest of the gods.
*A magic system with a very real and dangerous cost.
n.b The MC is slowly going cuckoo. He is a bit all over the place and is definitely one tomato short of a salad. This is what happens when magic and the divine mess with you [at least in my mind!] This is a feature, not a bug. Enjoy the story.

She’s a Cat. She’s a Girl. And she’s going to evolve.
Yona wasn’t always a cat, but she is now, and she’s living her best cat life. No silly “Quests” or “Systems” are going to get in her way!
…Until they do. Unfortunately, time waits for no man, and it certainly waits for no cat, and Yona finds that out the hard way. Now, stranded alone on an island surrounded by monsters, she needs to fight for her life to survive and return to the mainland!
…Or just pig out and nap and sometimes slap some fish people around. Either works. But there’s one thing she’s not going to do: swim. And that makes escaping the island a bit more of a challenge than it needs to be.
Meanwhile, the gods are brewing up… something. As gods tend to do.
What to expect:
- The MC is a cat, both in body and mind
- Gluttony powers done right
- The only romance is Yona X Fish (can’t get enough fish)
- A System that is sassy only in self defense
- Numbers go up (a lot)
- Somewhat unhinged MC
I tagged it with graphic violence and sensitive content, but it shouldn't get too bad. Just wanted to be safe
Ryan Robinson had one dream: to be an adventurer.
Quests, skills, quirky teammates and streaming on Realmnet. What’s not to love?
Instead he’s broke, working at a Manaburger, and System slots cost more than his paycheck times ten thousand.
Then he gets shot.
Then the Trial System chooses him.
Then he ends up in a Trial, with hostile Earth soldiers—from his own country no less.
Ryan just wanted to play adventurer. Instead, he’s fighting with every authority figure, stabbing a sword prodigy in a deathmatch, and… immediately getting blacklisted from the Adventurer’s Guild?
Suddenly Ryan's no longer just a fry cook. He's a rare Destined, tasked with figuring out how to save not one, but two worlds. It just doesn't seem that way to anyone else.
But hey, in a world ruled by Tyrants, what’s a villain but a hero adventurer with an attitude?
What to expect:
+ Ryan is a lovable [Rogue]. Weak to strong to op.
+ Power and choice, choice and power. Progression in both skills and character.
+ arrogant mages, intelligent monsters, guns, drones, selfies, [Meteors], covens, cults, shitposting epigraphs and a Gamielle.
+ World hopping between The Realm and Earth through gates/skills. A lot of the initial focus will be on The Realm.
+ A Witch Tyrant who will hex people through the internet for very mean comments.
+ No harem.

Long time reader, first time storyteller. I've been working on Ryan's tale for a while now and it's finally at the stage where I'm proud to share it. There's a lot of inspirations here. From system apocalypses to world hopping to cultivation and just epic fantasy. You'll find elements of all of them here, blended into something that I believe is fairly unique.
A LitRPG progression Fantasy
I am a worthless prince with a useless Blessing in a world where deep running waters threaten to pull even the most experienced warriors under.
Lucky me, I’ve always been a good swimmer.
Life was perfect: naps in sunbeams, stolen snacks and expertly timed "accidents" to torment her favorite human.
So, when licking a strangely alluring gemstone on an old mask suddenly flooded her fuzzy head with memories of her former human existence... well, like any sensible fox would, Clover simply filed it under "list-of-things-to-not-give-a-damn-about" and went back to important business. Like napping.
Fate, however, had other plans.
When the velvet curtain of her pampered ignorance was violently ripped aside, revealing a world steeped in ancient horrors, eldritch hungers, and flesh-warping occult progression... she reacted with remarkable calm. A raised eyebrow (metaphorically), perhaps. Because the real horror was anything threatening her nap-snack-torment equilibrium.
Now, this newly enlightened vulpine has a simple goal: Get Stronger. Not for glory. But purely so she can achieve peace through overwhelming power.
What to expect:
- A tier-based progression system (Body horror optional, but aesthetically likely)
- A terrifying world… seen through the unblinking, mildly annoyed gaze of a fluffy creature primarily concerned with treat distribution.
- OP protagonist → even more OP protagonist.
- Misunderstandings. So many misunderstandings.
- A totally honest, glorious, and helpful trait. Can be trusted with eyes closed.
