Synopsis

A haven for humanity. Factions forming and fracturing. The seeds of a new empire.

Drew and his team are racing to create a system-recognized ‘Habitat’. To make this happen, they must conquer more nodes, deal with an antagonistic superior officer, and possibly worst of all: their own fear.

Freeing the troll’s sacrificial captives was only the beginning. Now the remnants of humanity must find a safe place to call home. But Nat’s Park isn’t the safe haven he was promised it would be. Not only do internal politics threaten to rip the survivors apart, an unknown danger haunts the stadium.

Drew and his allies will struggle to survive in the changed world after the Advent as fate works to temper them.

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.

Myth//OS

★ 4.84

Lost Rain

What’s left when it all falls apart? Where do I go when the path forward is blocked? How do people just move on like nothing ever happened? A change in location certainly helped me.

Bastion, the last hope of civilization. It's bright. It’s flashy. It’s dangerous. There was nowhere else in the world, or any world, like it. With heroic Wardens protecting the city from monsters, rifts, and villainous Anarchs, there’s always something happening within the walls of Bastion. Not to mention the corporations bickering like children even during the end-times.

The existential threats that sought the destruction of the last city were just another Tuesday. The Wardens, with their system-granted powers, kept them in the back of people’s minds. Forged from broken myths, shattered stars, and fractured hope, they're the only thing between the city and total devastation. They were just out of reach for me.

They were. Until the OS picked a wayward Stray who happened to be in the right place at the right time. One rift, job, and monster at a time, I’d claw my way back to the top... just as soon as I found the drive to actually get out there. Picking up the pieces was just too tiring.

This is going to be quite a long story.

SIGILJACK

Progression Sci-Fantasy Cyberpunk LitRPG | Street-Samurai Combat x Dungeon Crawling | Mana + Metal + Trauma

Magic broke the world. Corporate greed broke him.

John Ranson is a washed-up combat engineer with a glitching arm, dwindling hope, and a family to protect in a threadcursed future.

Then came the package. Inside: Athena, a forbidden AGI who downloads herself into his broken mana and neural circuits—wearing the face of a dead friend.

Now he sees the code of reality: mana, monsters, memory, and threadways.

But power comes at a cost:

Corps want what's in his head. Threadbeasts want his blood. And something worse is already watching.

Good thing he's not alone, he's got:

» A forge-running oni who bleeds clan loyalty.
» An orichalcum katana once held by a fallen lover.
» Dog tags that still whisper blame.
» And a voice in his head who might believe in him more than he does.

When ghosts are real, the undercity eats intruders, and a dragon is president, there's only one way forward: dungeon-deep into a world that already gave up on him.

Forge your path. Burn your past.

If the corps or monsters don't kill you, the magic will.

Welcome to New Cascadia.
