(«^») Iris Exurrana
Paradox is both strange and dangerous. It's likened to a twisted mirror of your world. It's similar in many ways but at the same time is very, very different.
Paradox is made up of six continents. Sylphyr to the northwest. Sylphyr is mostly rainforest. It's a tropical rainforest in the northern half, and a temperate rainforest in the southern half. It also has a large swath of swamplands to the south east. This land used to house a grand kingdom, but it didn't survive into the seventh era. It's now home to a small queendom of pirates. To the southwest is Dreamyr. Dreamyr is a land best described as ‘bathed in shadow’. The atmosphere is thick, and is deep purple no matter where you go, and you can never see the sky. This continent is dominated by two trading empires, Shaelax in the east and Lylyria in the west. In the midsouth lies Nil Yn. It's cut into two by a man made strait. The entire continent forms a massive U shape, with an island in the middle. The eastern half of Nil Yn is mostly prismatic forest, with a massive savanna in the far south. On the west side the entire landscape is covered with cherry blossom forests. Three kingdoms lie here, Yn Dyr in the east, Yn Sil in the west, and Vaelik to the northeast. In the far southeast is Gyla. Mostly desert with some tropical rainforest in the north. It's home to the kingdom of Nyjula. To the north of Gyla is Alexandria. Dominated mostly by mountain ranges, and red forests, only one queendon makes its home here, which is also known as Alexandria. And finally, in the middle east lies Vyra. It's the only continent that resides within the circles of Neve and Eir, and is extremely cold but still habitable.

Paradox is tilted at 55° which switches the where the cold and hot areas are. On Paradox, the equator is where The Circles of Eir and Neve are, and is the coldest part of the world. The poles are the hottest, and contain The Tropics of Adara and Nuria. Paradox is also overall warmer, which means that the oceans at the equator don't freeze over.
Paradox has two moons, both of which are very large and habitable. Nova is the larger moon, and is almost completely made up of water. It's also completely frozen over, and only has one land mass. Pyre is slightly smaller, and is extremely hot. It's mostly just a massive, sandy desert with little water.
Paradox is about twice the radius of earth. Nova and Pyre are about the same size of earth.
On Paradox we measure time like this XE/XY/XM/XD stating the era, year, month, and day in that order. Paradox orbits very far away from our sun, so its year is 1092 days. Months are all 91 days long, with 13 seven day weeks. A day is 36 hours, and hours, minutes, and seconds are the same as yours. Our seasons run from 10M/1D to 1M/1D (The Ice Spell) then from 1M/1D to 4M/1D (The Flora Spell) then from 4M/1D to 7M/1D (The Fire Spell) 7M/1D to 10M/1D (The Earth Spell)

Mark of the Lash
Born from a precarious relationship between a Drow and his prize, Serena Lash struggles to find her place, and herself, as she fights to persevere through the hardships life throws her way. A story born from a D&D game I am currently a part of. The narrative will follow the events of the campaign as closely as possible, with some events having been tweaked to better fit into a written story. A slow burn, the narrative does skip around a bit due to the nature of the campaign, considering that not everything in the game needs to be written about. This will begin to peter out the further the story progresses, but for the first parts, expect a bit of skipping!

Gemma Summers is unlucky in love. After a decade of bad dates, she's all but given up. Enter: Chase Croft, Boston's most eligible bachelor. Chase does not date. But when a kiss-cam brings the two strangers together, somehow all it takes is one kiss for things to spiral out of control... *****One kiss. Two strangers. No strings attached. That was all it was when Gemma Summers and Chase Croft kissed for the dreaded jumbotron kiss-cam at the hottest playoff game of the season.

But little does she know, Chase is used to getting whatever he wants. As a reformed bad boy, Chase would rather put his energy into taking over the family business than weed through a world of gold-diggers to find the right woman. But after kissing Gemma once, he knows one thing... He wants more.Content and trigger warning: This story contains mature sexual content.
