Synopsis

Vivienne has poured so many hours into the massively popular VRMMO The Seven Cataclysms that she has more of a life inside the game than out. It’s a fitting irony, then, when one day she wakes in the body of her maxed-out demon-mage ‘Vivisari’—and finds that now, the game really is her life.

But the world of Seven Cataclysms isn’t what she remembers. A hundred years have passed since the game’s concluding events, and Vivisari is a hero of myth thought long dead. As she meets old faces and new in this familiar-yet-not world—casting spells of mass destruction and slowly reforming the scattered-to-the-wind remnants of her Guild—she starts to wonder if she was sent here with a purpose.

Rumors of a sequel had been circulating just before her unbelievable reincarnation. Did she, perhaps, need to fear an impending Eighth Cataclysm?

If so, it’s a good thing she has firepower in spades.

Cat Girl Evolution [BOOK 1 COMPLETE]

★ 4.74

Bedivere the Mad

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

She’s a puppy. She’s a girl. And she’s going to evolve.

Waking up one day in a litter of puppies, her human life a fading memory, she quickly falls into the flow of things.

Playing and hunting with her pack, taking naps at all hours of the day, and most importantly, leveling up and evolving!

With five brothers and sisters who all have their own unique powers, a protective Dog Mom and Cerberus Dad with three heads, she was sure nothing could ever go wrong in her new life.

That is, until human hunters show up and attack her family and kidnap her brothers and sisters.

Now she’s by herself in a world that is so much harsher to face alone. But she won’t give up. She’ll continue to level and evolve, and become powerful enough to take revenge on those damned humans and get her family back!

Fallen Lands

(This is the primary ongoing fiction page for Fallen Lands. Up to book 3 of the Fallen Lands series has been completed. Please be aware that reading this Synopsis or any portion of this book will be full of spoilers for books one, two, and three so stop now if you want to avoid them! The first three books, Vigilance, West Peak, and Siren's Reach, are currently free to read on Kindle Unlimited, but due to Amazon rules, I can only post a sample of them here on Royal Road at the same time. The rough draft of Book 4, Nightvale, will be posted on this fiction until complete. Book 1 can be found here: https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B0CHR4LFRD )

With the last known bastion of The Fallen in ruins and the remaining Greater Devils isolated from civilization by thousands of miles and a monster-filled ocean, Evelyn and her crew set their course for Vigilance, hoping for rest and a chance to build a new life. But this victory has not come without a price. The memories of those she was forced to kill and the devastation she left behind weigh heavily on Evelyn's heart, casting a shadow over her every step.

As she settles into her new role in society, navigating the complexities of studying, politics, and intrigue, the world begins to tip into chaos. Nations race against each other to reclaim the Fallen Lands, monsters surge back into the continent, and political tensions soar, forcing everyone to adapt to the new norms.

Evelyn isn't the only one caught up in these changes. The shockwaves of Aethabe's rage ripple across the continent, and as storms churn out of the shallow sea, the floodwaters filling Kingsgrove have an unexpected effect on a forgotten soul left behind.

Archmage from Another World: Gaining Administrator Access [LitRPG Isekai]

★ 4.58

Etheric

Transported into a world where just about anybody can receive the prestigious title of Mage, Morgana is equally baffled and outraged. She spent the better part of twenty-two years holed up in alcoves, poring over spell formulae and memorizing the forty-three Primary Astolian Paradigms, all for the opportunity to study at the Ivory Institute and gain access to those primordial, inscrutable powers. And here, they're dropped into people's laps? Ridiculous.

Morgana doesn't know how she's arrived here, why everyone is so bone-headedly ignorant to the fundamentals of magic, and especially what this strange 'System' is, coddling even 'archmages' with the simplest of spell constructions, but she's going to find out.

In the meantime, there's plenty of fascinating things to study. Dungeons, artifacts, classes, skills, and spells—all obviously created by some Grand Architect using a language that, apparently, only Morgana is familiar with. Beyond gaining insights into the arcane, which she's devoted her life to decoding, there might be something incredible to glean inside all these expertly hidden mechanisms.

Something bigger than she could imagine.

Axiom of Infinity: Souleater

★ 4.64

TSeris

"They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. What then are we to think of it when the gods themselves steal our ideas on how the universe should work? Can we complain when they turn reality into a game? Can we get a refund on life itself? The gods claim they answered our prayers. That they built this world with us in mind. That they brought us here for our own sake. Maybe they did. Personally I think they have their own reasons. We're not the players in this game, we're the pieces on the board.

Still... What if it's fun?"

Axiom of Infinity follows the story of several travelers from Earth as they attempt to make new lives for themselves in a world with monsters and dungeons, where RPG mechanics are as innate as the laws of physics, and where the gods themselves seem to be playing a very different game–one with unknown stakes and strange alliances. Blessed by two gods and cursed by another, one man finds himself at the center of their machinations, a pawn destined to become a queen.

This is a LitRPG Novel built on a hard system with a lot of depth and customization, but which tries not to beat you over the head with numbers constantly. In this world finding and reporting bugs and exploits is both encouraged and rewarded, and the gods have found the most qualified testers in the multiverse: Us. Now the unsuspecting natives of Astra are going to have to learn to live with a bunch of min-maxing, power-gaming, spreadsheet slinging nerds and gamers of all shapes and sizes as we do what we do best... break things.

Mirabelle’s Boots – The Cruel Fairy’s Wish [A Shoe-Making litRPG!]

★ 4.77

Razzmatazz

[I was reborn after being murdered because of the true wish that I made for revenge against all human-peoples, but now I’m alive again and I actually just kind of don’t want to do that anymore; so I opened a shoe-store instead!]

After being violently torn from her old life in the natural world after being grotesquely murdered by miners belonging to members of the common races of humans and elves, Mirabelle the fairy makes a true wish to anything that can hear her dying screams, beckoning the old powers of the forgotten reaches to allow her to take her revenge against those who stole all things that were precious from her in life.

Her wish is granted. However, upon being reborn in an age far after when she had originally died, and all traces of her old life having been erased by the unforgiving passing of time, she finds herself alone with a spirit that is now as crushed as her old body had been, as while she has indeed been granted her wish for power, all of the people who wronged her have long since died already.

Finding a new way, the cruel fairy forsakes her true wish to make the world worse than she left it and instead finds a new life in a very unlikely place — the large, nearby human city that hadn’t existed when she last knew the area generations upon generations ago.

Needing a method to survive as the only fairy within the human capital, if not the only one at all in the world, Mirabelle lives in secret within the vibrant city full of magic and adventurers, adapting to the ways of the human-people, as the fairy ways do not suffice to survive within this new, industrious society that is the total opposite of her old one, until she finds her path forward as a shoemaker's apprentice!

Living in seclusion and in fear, unable to reveal herself because of her own anxieties, the fairy practices the art of shoemaking in secret, the old contract of her rebirth not forgotten by her or by the dark stars that granted it, as she spends her days making boots as she tries to figure out what life exactly is for a cruel fairy or a cruel human, both of whom exist under the curious glow of starlight that seems to wait ever so patiently for the old bargain to be fulfilled.

Will Mirabelle succumb to her dark desires to make the humans pay for what they did to her and her people, or will she find a new way forward, breaking free from the spiritual shackles of revenge?

The Phoenix [Cultivation, Reincarnation, Tower Climber]

★ 4.58

The Phoenix

She entered the Tower seeking death. Instead, she keeps finding reasons to live.

In this life, she's Bella, a jaded med student trying to catch up on centuries of medical innovation. Or at least, she was before the Tower appeared. With the promise that she would find whatever she sought if she reached the top, she entered, hoping to find a way to end her curse.

However, even with hundreds of lives of experience to fall back on, reaching the top is no easy task. The Tower is filled with wonders she could only dream of, and what she once believed was the peak of power was only the first rung of a much larger climb. Her foundations are unshakable, but the Tower is deeper, deadlier, and more exhilarating than anything she’s ever faced.

And when she finally reaches the top? She’ll decide whether to end it all… or maybe not.

Inspired by:

- Tower of God
- Hunter X Hunter
- Hell Difficulty Tutorial
- Various Murim and Xianxia stories

What to expect

- Strong to Stronger
- Magic system is Hunter X Hunter + cultivation
- A Tower of massive scale with many different places and races
- No romance
- Long-term character development
- A cat (?)

Beware the Trickster (An Occult Progression LitRPG)

★ 4.77

Mangowo

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.
