《Dungeon's Ascension》Announcement - The future of this story and other fun topics (Preemptive Q&A)

Where I want to go and why it is not like that right now
In the beginning there will be chapters of dungeon building. That is unavoidable, but I try to mix it up as best as I can. In the beginning I will write how the dungeon is created in relative detail and then I will go to an invader POV. Later on I plan on more invader POVs or dungeon inhabitant POVs to get to know the dungeon in detail while the general structure will be explained from the MC's point of view. I also plan on focusing on the outside world for quite a bit of the first book, as the main players of the nearby sect and the general surroundings of the dungeon will get introduced.
The dungeon building will always be part of the story, but since it is happening mostly natural in this story as opposed to the dungeon placing all his new toys on each new floor, it will be not as extensive as in other stories. Another point is, that the cultivation of the dungeon really slows down as he gets more powerful and I want to fill the time gaps with something different then: 'After training for 50 years', so I'll have to come up with interesting and engaging stories.
Your writing is shit!
Well thank you for your insightful analysis dear reader.
On a slightly more serious note, this is my first time writing a real story. Even in my mother tongue, german, I haven't done so and this naturally means that this is a learning process.
If you want to help then please point out any weird sentence structure or grammar that you can spot.
I also tried using <> for important terms to highlight them. Is that helpful or just annoying?

Will there be many POVs?
Yes. If you have a problem with that I'm sorry, because this story will never be one for you. Better to quit now then to torture yourself. I will say though, that I plan to keep certain characters for frequent POVs while others might only get 1-2 chapters. So at this time the plan is for characters to have many chapters or next to none and not many characters that get 5 chapters and then disappear. There might be some but it won't be frequent.
Will you take reader input for the story or is it already fixed?
If you have any new races or plot ideas you'd like me to introduce just post them. I have a general idea where the story will end up going but most things are not yet fixed and I'm grateful for any input.
Will you rewrite everything after a few chapters?
No. I don't plan on rewriting everything. I'm sure there will be changes as I come up with better ways to introduce story elements or badly worded things. I will make a change log post after this where every major change will be catalogued so you don't have to reread any part of the story.
I have a question! *raises hand*
Ask away and I might answer.
I drew something for you
Send it my way and i'll be sure to feature it somewhere.
I require your update schedule
Since my chapters are fairly long and I'm not the fastest writer around I promise one chapter per week. Everything else is an extra.

The Hawkshaw Inheritance
The Hawkshaw Inheritance is a completed story, with twenty chapters in total. For as long as almost anyone can remember, a small percentage of people have possessed fantastic gifts. Superhuman strength, speed, and smarts are just a few of the many such abilities on record. Some choose to exploit these powers for personal gain, but most use them for the benefit of their fellow man. Thanks to these people, who we call superheroes, the world is safe. The reality is a little more complicated. Most heroes are content to stop the supervillain and pose for the cameras. But it takes more than a few costumed cops and superpowered celebrities to save the world. Humanity is in danger from forces that ordinary heroes are woefully unequipped to handle. But neither they nor the public will ever be aware of the danger they are in, thanks to the efforts of the Council. For more than twenty years, the world's most powerful, influential, and intelligent metahumans have worked tirelessly in secret to protect the world, and subtly steer it on a better course. Six months ago, one of their number, the infamous vigilante detective known as Hawkshaw, disappeared without a trace. Now it falls to his protege to take up the mantle of Hawkshaw, learn the truth of his mentor's disappearance, and uncover the secrets of the most powerful people in the world... as well as what they're willing to do to keep those secrets buried.

The Great War: Saturn's Factory
The Great War has ended. But the bloodshed has only just begun. The largest conflict in all of human history has just ended, with Europe at the center of the carnage. For fifty long and hard years, billions of men died each month for no gain. Not even the slightest of centimeters had been gained for some nations. While others struggle to hold on to their hard-fought victories. In the midst of all of this is The Second Roman Empire. At the center of the Middle Eastern world, the empire finds itself struggling to keep Eastern neighbors at bay while old enemies stir up trouble from within. When documents pertaining to the identities of the many men working to undermine the empire show themselves in domestic waters. The Empire readies itself to slice off the many parasites draining the government of both wealth and unity. If only the documents didn't also happen to end up on The Dotted Isles. Dozens of man-made islands, some even hundreds of miles large. And currently one of the most unstable areas of the entire empire. As Roman agents rush to the document, Italian forces move in tandem to set up Insurgencies to wrestle control away from the Romans. And as all this goes down, the common citizen remains, either Vat-Born or Birthed. As it turns out, sometimes the greatest players of these conflicts happen to be the men and women who know least about them. The Image is not mine and comes from the Alternative History Channel Monsieur Z, I'll take it down the moment I can make an image of my own.

Sage ▸ Stiles Stilinski [Book One]
"You do realize that I'm supposed to tell you when you're throwing yourself into a dangerous situation and that doing this will probably get you killed, right?" "I don't need you to take care of me, Sage." "Says the werewolf that fell into the floor." Sage Connelly was notoriously known for the fire that killed her entire family when she was only ten years old. Granted, that name held importance for an entire year before people eventually forgot about the Connelly's and the other family involved in the fire, the Hale's. Nearly six years later, when the little girl is not so little anymore, Sage comes back with more than just a leather jacket hanging on her shoulders. She comes back with a personality distinctly different from what her old friends remembered, not only stunning Jackson Whittemore into silence but efficiently taking away Scott McCall and Stiles Stilinski's ability to talk about the dead body found in the woods the night before. Even more, the bite on Scott's body that held an importance only two people in town could help him with: Sage, to her dismay, was one of them.When Derek Hale calls upon her help, giving her the title of Scott McCall's personal babysitter, she's inevitably forced to tag along with the boy's trusty side-kick. The introverted and overly, well, intimidating qualities that the blonde had lead Stiles Stilinski into an unfathomable struggle of convincing himself that Sage Connelly was just a crush, and that Lydia Martin would forever be the one holding his heart. That lasted as long as the one-way conversation the boy had with the strawberry blonde in the middle of a hospital. His downward spiral leads him directly into the arms of a stubborn, damn blonde that was confident she didn't need a boy in her life that was still tripping over an elementary school crush.
