In SerialOcean Attuned - A timeloop LitRPG Fantasy Tragedy Action Adventure Slice of Life
In the mids of industrialization, Liana, a girl of almost twelve, awakens her flow and follows her newly awakened calling, the ocean, and thus the path of the last remaining god.
With the advent of industry, one's status and the accompanying skills slowly grow to be secondary as people choose more recreational skills and classes. The clear exception are flow bringers. Humans with an increased affinity towards flow and attunements are the only real remnants of the age of gods and mysticism. Terrors on the battlefield, saints in hospitals, saviours during drought, are just some examples of the wonderous abilities they display.
As civilization grows less dangerous so does the stress that is often associated with the awakening of the flow reduce and only the real talents remain.
Please be aware that this is a first draft at best.
Tag/Genre analysis:
Action: A theme that will appear in the story at some point (probably 15+ chapters in)
Adventure: Yes
Fantasy: Yes Magic, Beasts, and other fantastical elements are totally at home here.
Tragedy: Life is not always fun. For what is fun when there are no downsides. I don't know how heavily I am going to lean into this genre. I want to but don't expect too much.
Loop: Yes, though I will not divulge anything else. Just be aware that there isn't nearly as much looping as in MoL for example.
Female Lead: Yes, Liana is female.
Dungeon: Yes, there are dungeons. Yes, they will get explored.
LitRPG: Yes, read the first chapter if you want an example.
Magic: most definitely because who doesn't like calling lighting down from the heavens. (Disclaimer: No actual lightning will be called down from the heavens)
Mythos: There are gods. So maybe, I don't know if that is enough to qualify?
Progression: yes
Slice of Life: There is plot, and the story will mostly be about that plot, but there will also be downtime because there can't always be action. The first "loop" especially the first 20-30 chapters will be heavily SoL. And afterward there will be a lot less.
Profanity: The ocean (see title) includes sailors and we all know how the stereotypical sailor is.
Gore: Hmmm, some but I will have it be not graphic at all.

The Path of Ascension
The story follows Matt, a young man planning to delve the rifts responsible for the monsters that destroyed his city and killed his parents. His dreams are crushed when his Tier 1 Talent is rated as detrimental, and no guild or group will take him. Working at a nearby inn, he meets a mysterious and powerful couple. They give him a chance to join The Path of Ascension, an empire wide race to ascend the Tiers and become living legends. With their recommendation and a stolen skill, Matt begins his journey to the peak of power. *** Chapters will now be MONDAY and FRIDAY AT 4:00pm EST. This is a mix between LitRPG and Xianxia. It's like a car that looks like a LitRPG with dungeons and skills, but the interior and engine are all Xianxia. So no blue boxes and clicking +’s to get stronger. *** What you won't see in this novel: Bland protagonists. Bland love interests that immediately fall in love with the MC. Murder hobos who kill entire families and clans for looking the wrong way at somebody. Pacifist MC’s who wouldn't kill a single person to save millions. Cartoonish villains who are bad just to be bad. *** What to expect: A MC who acts rationally. World building that has more depth than ‘strong people 'stronk'. There will be no rules only benefiting the strong and no rule changes as they see fit. An empire that actually cares for its citizens. People who act and talk like real people. A magic system and progression system that are logically and internally consistent. Realistic fight scenes.

Throughout the Ages
A new virtual reality game has just been released, different to any that have come before it. Throughout the Ages sees the players guiding a small community from the the stone age onwards, acting as benevolent gods that inspire and bless their charges. The peoples of Lorinas are not mere abstractions, though, but complex AI with their own thoughts and motives, living in a rich and dangerous fantasy world! Follow the tale of John, the uninteresting author self-insert character, and his sexy AI handmaiden Jade, as they pursue success in a game where their decisions can mean life or death! This story is supposed to be a dungeon lord like story in a VR multiplayer setting, I hope people who read it enjoy it. Partially ghostwritten by the incredibly handsome and clever Sniggyfigbat, and edited by the occasionally competent Dosahder.(Warning: this synopsis might not be entirely objective) (Upload schedule is highly irregular due to having to match three different plannings) more tags might be added in the future.Also it is my first story so please point out spelling and grammar mistakes.

The Dawnfire Archives
It begins in the endless wastes, with an unknown man arriving at the bottom of the tallest mountain in existence. A mysterious voice provides few directions, bringing more questions than answers. Regardless, after choosing a name and weapon... the man begins to climb. He will not be alone on this journey. A young individual from a different reality has also made his way to The Climb. But what does their arrival bode for the people of this world? And where does climbing the mountain truly lead? This is my second novel on Royal Road, the first being "Beyond the Horizon's Eye", and the third being "The Card Thief of Culnivar". This story is much more GameLIT than Xianxia, and takes place in a different setting with an entirely new cast of characters. It does, however, contain several ties between the stories. Average post between 1000 - 3000 words.

Player Invasion: The Ember of the Forsaken Throne
Many years had passed when foreign people who called themselves "Players" had arrived in our land... They were all unreasonable and mad and we were helpless... They have unimaginable powers that defy our understanding of magic and faith... The Kingdom's strongest Knight Champion was killed in the final defense at the capital. The Great Sword King together with the Grand Wizard has perished together after attacking the Player's known headquarters. The Priestess who tried to seek help from the Elven and Dwarve's Nation was missing. The previous Tyrant King who bent his knees and surrendered his land was still mercilessly killed. Even the legendary hero, the protector of our continent, the pride of the allied nations, and the last Sky Dragon of this generation was now a slave to these so-called Players... Now... They've set their eyes on me. It's my turn to be hunted by the Players as the last descendant of the royal bloodline. Luckily, the gods haven't given up on us and gave us hope to live on. "The Awakening"
