Synopsis

Reality was destroyed. But don’t worry—Reality 2.0 is here!

Built and broadcast by a reality television AI, this new world runs on one rule: viewer engagement.

Meet Gen, a stitched-together soul-cluster known as a generated. She’s got a flair for destruction and a bizarre obsession with iguanas. Oh—and she knows you’re watching.

In this LITRPG-inspired, poll-driven, meta-chaos adventure, you’re not playing as Gen—you’re one of the viewers shaping her fate. Every level-up, mutation, boss fight, or mind-bending twist is determined by polls that affect the story in real time. Gen can see the results. Sometimes she’s grateful. Sometimes…not.

Expect:

– Chaotic powers, cursed loot, and insane side characters!

– Polls that decide Gen’s path—new ones every chapter

– Every other chapter’s polls are free for non-Patreon subscribers

– A deadly world where the audience is part of the show

New chapters every Monday. Polls close Wednesdays at noon EST.

Welcome to the show. Don’t screw it up.

OstensibleMammal

Professionally edited and published versions of volumes 1 and 2 can be found on Kindle and as audiobooks on Audible!

Avo was born to destroy New Vultun. In a twist of fate, he’ll become its only hope for salvation.

The gods were the enemy. The slaver. The chains. With dreams of paradise, humanity slaughtered them and stole their powers, opening the path to become more – to ascend.

Instead, they nearly destroyed the world.

Vast hive cities serve as the final bastions against the crumbling of reality. New Vultun is the greatest of them all, and within its borders, ascenders wage war to determine the laws of existence itself.

The world descends ever deeper into ruination.

Avo was born a weapon, a slave to his instincts and his masters. He and his brothers were made to burn New Vultun to ashes. Everything changes when Avo gains immortality and becomes heir to an impossible legacy.

He must ascend the megacity of New Vultun. He must challenge the very tyrants that usurped the gods.

He must finally free the world from chains.

[A failed Participant in the January 2023 Community Contest: I forgot to fill the form]

The world ended. Bam! The Apocalypse opened the gates of Hell, demons killed everyone. Including me. But I got a second chance of life. Though it was as an apple. Which was eaten by a starving survivor, not that I fault them. But to toss my half-eaten core into a landfill?

To add insult to injury, an earthquake brought the landfill and everything in it a mile underneath the earth. I guess I'm not in uncharted waters, because good luck finding any nearby.

Not that it would matter. I am pretty sure the apple I was reincarnated as was a GMO hybrid whose potential to germinate was as stunted as the empathy of a corporation CEO. So there's that. Also, no sunlight.

Dragonheart Core

★ 4.61

Atenburgh

To take a dragon's hoard is to challenge death.

The greatest of the sea-drakes wakes, curled on his silver throne; but there is no silver. His hoard is stolen. He rises, screaming, and chases the thief to the ends of the world—only to be shot from the sky.

But dragons do not die easy, and never one with such festering hatred. A dungeon core rises from his corpse.

If he intends to survive so near the cove of pirates that slew his past self, he'll need to master his powers—and quickly. For these pirates are dragonslayers; they won't be felled by mere mushrooms or spiders.

Beneath the lawless Calarata, the young dungeon core will have to fight to survive; and one day, he will return death to the man who killed him.

Updates on Fridays at 8 pm EST!

This is a 100% reader-interactive, game-like book, based on my novel Technomagica. It is written in collaboration with the readers - every comment drives it forward. Once there are enough interesting or fun comments on each chapter, various paths forward begin to manifest that you can [choose] to follow.

Summary: Soviet bio-weapons designer Vladislav Kerenski died in 1992. Upon meeting "god" he rejects a continuation of his narrative. It's up to you to help him survive the darkness of the Astral Ocean.

This is the only book on Royal Road where your choice can make the MC become a villain or a hero, to die horribly and quickly, or slowly and painfully, to live out an interesting life, to become god, or to be trapped in a nightmarish loop without an end!

Evelyn "Teddy" Claire is a street kid just trying to make ends meet. That's hard to do when you live in the undercity, a near slum found underneath the foundations of the megacity of Calgary.

Usually, her only concerns are finding a good meal, and avoiding taking a bullet in a gang fight, but that all changes when an Antithesis incursion manages to find its way below.

Empowered by a benevolent alien race, she becomes a Samurai, one of the protectors of humanity. Now, she must work to exterminate the Antithesis stuck below ground. Before the Antithesis exterminate her and everyone else.

A Stray Cat Strut Fanfiction - This is based upon the setting created by RavensDagger, it is not canon, but I AM doing my best to make it consistent. Thanks to RavensDagger for creating the setting and providing me access to some of the public reference material.

Note about lack of fanfiction tag: This story originally DID have the fanfiction tag, but I recieved RavensDagger's permission to take donations. The RR admin wasn't able to open donations without removing the tag. The lack of tag is intentional.

If you haven't read the original story read it here: Stray Cat Strut

I also have a discord where I discuss this and other stories here: Discord

I am not a professional author, this is my first story, written as practice for an original fiction I plan on writing. I will post a schedule once my daily chapters start running out.

Upgrade. Consume. Evolve. Whether it’s cybernetics or mutations, this world demands you be more than human.

Every century, the MALswarm invades — adaptive aliens of blood and steel led by Titans that decimate billions and leave behind raw Warp Energy. Humanity seizes this power, transforming into beings of mutated flesh and cybernetic might. Yet the promised utopia remains a lie, and New California’s underworld schemes to profit from the impending Fifth Swarm.

Amidst the chaos, two destinies collide. Ripley — a cybernetics savant battling to save his dying mother — operates in the shadows of a gang-owned nightclub. Diana, engineered for perfection, fights as an officer of the law to forget her past. When a monster is unleashed, they steal its infinite potential to warp their futures with their newfound powers.

In a city where salvation and damnation are inseparable, Ripley reinvents himself from the wreckage of his enemies' cybernetics as a mercenary who will one day become an architect of ruin. Diana's mutated blood crackles with lightning as she purges corruption, igniting into a storm of change. Against a grand conspiracy of aliens, rogue AIs, shady corporations, organized crime and centuries of forgotten history, their alliance — and conflict — determines if the world will plunge into darkness or embrace the light.

Wrong City? Wrong People? No. This is the right city, and they're the only ones who can save this dystopian future.

In the Clash of Blood and Steel, The Eclipse rises — echoing in Thunderous Omens and Webs of Lies.

What happens when you mix GodClads, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Akira and a dash of Blade Runner into the mix? This novel.

What to expect?

- Two MCs on opposite sides of the law. Crime vs Police. Mercenary vs Investigator.

- Superhero/Supervillain Themes. How far will they go to achieve their goals?

- Two distinct Power Systems. Cybernetics vs Mutations.

- Adaptation-based Progression. Every Powerset is a story of survival.

- A medium-burn story. Fast-action; slow-burn drama.

- Slice-of-crime. Criminal hijinx, cybernetic crafting, conspiracy investigations, and asskicking.

- Both MCs have separate romantic lives... for now.

- Weak to strong to legendary. Power. Fame. Money - they'll get it all.

- A long Sci-Fi Epic. Three Acts Per Volume. Ten Volumes.

- Eventual alien invasion and Kaiju fights.

Author's Note: This story can be pretty heavy at times. T/W's include: Gore, death, profanity, sexual themes (no descriptions), drugs. Honestly, my novel might be a list of war crimes one day. This story was highly influenced by some downer moments in my life as the characters learn that they can accept the darkness in them and embrace the light. As tragic as elements of this story might be, it is about overcoming tragedy. I hope you'll enjoy it.

An Antihero’s Journey: Book One, The Crow [A Cosmic Superhero Progression Fantasy]

★ 4.68

Malaklein

Burton was a good man, if gullible, until his girlfriend turned out to be a superhero who cheated on him with another superhero, who happened to be his best friend. His whole family then proceeds to side with her and that was the final straw.

And in a fit of suicidal rage, something happened to him. He became a wisher.

One thing had changed, and that was his mind. He was smarter now, better than who he was, but still the same. He was still a good person. He was still the kid his grandpa had raised, he was just much more cynical about the world now. So now he lives as a vigilante, not an official hero but some rogue man of the night beating up bad guys and giving teenagers a black eye here and there for some reason.

He has a talking dog and a cat, but for the most part, he’s alone and hurting.

But that’s about to change, because soon, he’s going to be hurting some more.

He’s a cynic. He’s a hero. He’s a sadistic hermit with no love to give.

Watch this twenty five year old man tackle villains, heroes, and worst of all other people!

What to expect:

-Smart Main Character

-Power Progression.

-Complex worldbuilding.

-Animal companion.

-Family drama.

-Moral Dilemma.

-Aliens/Magic and all the other standard stuff that comes with comic book worlds.

The cosmic horror will not come in for awhile as it is a bit of a slow burn.

Author's Note:

It is something that's been bouncing around my head for a bit, a story where I try to make a power system for superheroes and fix all the things I hated about superhero stories. Like how do you hide your secret identity when you bleed all over the pavement. How do you get paid and why aren't you getting paid? If a supervillain kills multiple people, wouldn't the government want to put them down? The Joker is literally a domestic terrorist, how is he still alive?

It is my attempt at an antidote to superheroes without removing all the things that makes them great. Secret identities, moral paragons, and all other tropes can be found here. But I try to make it as real as I can, even if we have caped crusaders who are somewhat confused about where the underwear goes.

This book is now on Kindle!

In the sleepy town of Saint Mary, the Kilborne superhero family's new neighbors are more than just odd—they're supervillains! School would be a breeze for Martin Kilborne if it weren't for Alexa Terranova, his raygun-toting classmate who recruited him as her minion. Martin becomes quickly tangled in Alexa's supervillain plots from stealing an ice cream van, to destroying the Superstate, to bewildering time-travel escapades leaping between his Earth and a dead world 400 years in the future. When Martin is awakened from mundane existence by Alexa, his life transforms from mundane to madcap—an ever accelerating train ride with no breaks, packed with adventure, dark comedy and post-apocalyptic, cosmic horror!
