Chasing sun, napping softly:
Cultivation/Xianxia genre.
Some parts will poke at the ridiculousness of the Xianxia gerne.
We follow the life of a magical fox monster, who doesn't like how the cultivation world works. Said beast seems to have more knowledge than is usual for normal magical beasts.
In it's infinite wisdom it decided to search for the main character of the cultivation world to have a cozy and safe place beside him.
Our fox will act as a "wise beast" to coast along on the main characters rise to greatness, all for peace, happiness and that amazing napping spot in the sun.
The challenges for myself with this story:
Writing in first person.
Comedic effect between talking vaguely and sounding wise.
The cost of heroism:
A story more centered around fights and mental health of hired mercenaries/heroes.
The world is infected with an eldritch corruption. Humans are trying their best to explore and clear out wilderness and the dungeons hiding in them to establish new cities.
Lords seek for hired hands to do the professional work.
Thanks to the setting, the story will show how awful pasts are the norm and how pragmatic people became thanks to that.
People exchange their sanity for riches, fame and gods acceptance. Interpersonal relationships change drastically and quickly.
The challenges for myself with this story:
Writing grim scenes/imparting a feeling of how grim the world is.
Writing fight scenes.
Showing different mental states.
Describing their influence on people during fights, walks or even after successful or failed campaigns.
Who will be the next powerhouse? :
A story about a gaming show, it's host Staan and the different participants.
Stereotype characters, stereotype backstories, silly challenges and quizzes.
The winner of those challenges gets powerups for their power system.
Be it magic, ki, psychic power or anything else imaginable and unimaginable to reach the power of gods.
The challenges for myself with this story:
A softer tone for storytelling.
Making the reader smile and enjoy themselves.
A different try at slice of life story.
I was left behind on earth as my family conquered another world and enjoys riches, but that's okey because I got a cheat too! :
Stereotypical Isekai story parody twisted into an Urban Fantasy story.
The challenges for myself with this story:
Writing over the top and overdramatic scenarios/scenes
Writing in first person.
Walking into stereotypical scenarios and making them more dramatic/giving them a twist.
Different type of humor.

Candor: The Forgotten House
*** Please read note below *** As a 16-year-old mage from a powerful family, Jayce Candor had known from a young age what his future would hold. As the fourth son in his family the possibility of him becoming the heir to the household was very small. But, with his talent as a mage, his potential accomplishments in the military could lead to titles of nobility and political power. However, on what would otherwise be an unremarkable night, everything he had ever known, the only people he ever cared for, and all of the plans for his future were destroyed. House Candor, one of the six great houses that helped build the Eldoran Empire had been erased from history. By imperial decree, all those bearing the name Candor were hunted down and executed as traitors of the Empire. With no home, no family, and only death waiting for him, Jayce decided to escape north to the uncharted Northern Territories to begin a new life. Forced into situations he was never prepared for and trying to cope with his past, Jayce tries to find safety in a place spoken about only in legends. There for the first time, he will make true friends and find people he will come to see as family. He will encounter strong enemies, build powerful alliances, and become a person his ancestors would be proud of. But surrounded by creatures he thought only existed in tales and pressed by the Empire’s constant expansion, Jayce’s safety may be only an illusion. To survive a world fraught with danger Jayce will need to grow stronger with each new experience and rebuild his once forgotten house. ********************************************************************** Note: The story starts slow. Although there is more action as the story progresses, there is a fair amount of introspection and character introduction in the first 30 chapters. Jayce is the main character, however, other characters play a large role and the story is seen through multiple POV's. This is a draft, it is not a finished work. This is not a story that focuses on an OP MC who beats up on weaklings. At times there can be a fair amount of internal monologue. Some of that may be edited out when I rewrite the story. I decided to keep it in the draft because I think it is better to have too much material rather than too little when I edit. Constructive criticism is appreciated as it helps in the editing and rewriting process. Check out my other story Shattered Mind here
