《PJO Truth or Dare》Percy
Advertisement
I was extremely annoyed.
My socks weren't that bad.
Nico couldn't have been sick because of them.
Well, that's what I thought.
The son of Hades was sweating and his face looked clammy. Will was cooing over him like a hen, occasionally directing glares at me. I shrugged.
"Percy," Hazel said, snapping me out o my thoughts, "truth or dare?"
"What?" I whined. I looked at Annabeth, but she was gossiping with Piper. Her dare was going well. "You guys all just insulted me!"
Most people just glared at me. "Fine," I sighed.
"Dare."
Hazel grinned. "Flirt with the naiads."
My eyes widened. "N-no way."
"Yes way," Leo cackled. Calypso was snorting.
Annabeth looked thoroughly unimpressed.
I got up out of the cabin. Truth was, I couldn't flirt that well, as I was oblivious to girls for ages.
That seemed to be my downfall.
When I came back, I was soaked and my mouth was full of mud.
I spat it out and sat next to Annabeth again.
Leo was going to regret laughing.

Nero Zero
Monsters plagued the lands for too long. No matter if one had fangs, beak, teeth, skin, fur, or feather, or was tall, stout, or diminutive, the people suffered. Until the Gadgeteers came with a device that could allow people to fight back. Powered by one's own magical power, feeding off of monster Essence, the Arbitrium bracer turned the tables. It also changed society. Strength of one's level cap was all that mattered. The strongest were Kings and Emperors. The weak or those too poor to afford the marvelous device, destitute. And so it has been for millennia. All that mattered was one's level cap. High, low, a fate decided the moment the strange contraption came alive. Too high and you were a threat to those interested in keeping the status quo, a weed to be nipped before it could grow and take root. Too low and you were nobody, fated to be a bit more than a simple farmer. What if someone, somewhere, came up with a zero for their level cap? Unable to use Essence, unable to level up. On all of recorded history, it never happened. Until it did. In a small village of fur-less and tail-less ape-beastkin, a boy found out he was uniquely handicapped. Nero's level cap was Zero. But he'd never let that stop him from reaching his goals. ------------------------------------------------ All stories have already been told. We merely reuse elements from them. From Joseph Campbell's Monomith to Stephen King's advice, and that encyclopedia of tropes you've visited, fiction has been dissected and reassembled countless times. One will surely find elements inspired on other works here. Just like cooking from basic ingredients, the recipe and presentation is what really matter. This is a fantasy adventure, of someone that goes from a zero to a slightly bigger zero. It will have romance but no harem. Cruelty but with hope dimly shining ahead. Lightweight where it can be, heavy where it must. Thanks for reading. Cover Credits (The cover is CC-BY-NC-SA): Steampunk Spider Bracer, by Daniel Proulx.

The Hand That Guides
The rust colored lands of Osnein are rich with artifacts and old-world technologies highly valued by the various empires and kingdoms inhabiting this distant world. Though many individuals make a living off what they can scavenge from ruins above ground, the true wealth lies beneath them in a iron labrynth known to all as 'The Network'.

However, entrances to The Network are far and few and rarely explored as metallic entities known as the Jötnar, guard its very depths. In order to defend themselves against such threats, humanity employs the use of Seidr, also known as sorcery. It is the foundation in which gives power to the incantations invoked from the realms beyond the veil... and through the blessing of 'Ljoss' bestowed upon humanity by the Goddess Oracle, the time may yet come for humanity to claim The Network for themselves...
