《The Apex》Something Extra
Advertisement
Not a chapter. This was supposed to be the original synopsis, but got scrapped since I felt it was too long. Read if you want; it doesn't really affect anything and is more like an overview to the previous chapters if anything.
/////////
In the world known as Aerethin, where monsters and all manners of abominations roamed free, there existed an empire by the name of Imperia. This empire was renown throughout the land as being the greatest bastion of mankind that ever existed. It had riches and strength beyond comparison and guaranteed the peace and prosperity of humanity. At the apex of this mighty empire was a man known to all as Emperor Cyrus Alabast Imperia. Being the founder of the empire and a man of great power and charisma, he had everything man could ever desire. Fame, wealth, and unimaginable strength to dominate even the most vicious of creatures, he had it all. It was he who used his bottomless talent to unite humanity against the abominations of nature and it was he who still stood to safeguard the empire against any and all threats, becoming a hero and a bulwark that continues to protect mankind against any future threats.
But alas, nothing lasts forever, and even this man in all his glory could not withstand the test of time. As he laid on his deathbed, all his thoughts culminated into worry about the future of his beloved empire. Whether it will continue to prosper under his legacy or not was something he may never find out. And so, with such thoughts, the mighty ruler passed away.
His worries were proven true as his empire crumbled and segmented in the absence of his guidance, breaking apart completely. Internal strife and corruption ran rampant and the once prosperous empire of Imperia shattered and became no more.
As the millenniums passed even the name and legacy of this empire faded, becoming nothing more than a mere myth. It was at this time, hundreds of thousands of years after the fall, that an earth-rending quake erupted all across the world of Aerethin, bringing catastrophes wherever it hit. At the epicenter of this great calamity laid an ancient and forgotten tomb.

A Nerd's Wet Dream Come True (Tossing an OC into Marvel)
John was an average man. At least that's what he tells himself at night. He lived in a rented apartment in the decent district, a well-paying job, and more student debt than he cared to think about being steadily paid off. Yet he was absolutely miserable. He spent his days living like a zombie, a slave in all but name to corporate. His only joy these days it seems was reading comics and writing fanfics. SI ones. Choke full of power fantasies and large harems. Yeah, even he had to admit he was a loser. His only redeeming feature seemed to be his photographic memory and the library's worth of comics and books he has read. Yet, when fate took pity on him and had John transported into the Marvel Universe, he was only all too happy to oblige. A second chance to make something of himself. Is he going to finally have the comfortable life he wanted? Will he laze away relying on his past life's knowledge or does he want more this time? Will his ambition and hard work lead to sweet fruits, or will it rot away in the darkness hiding beneath the colorful costumes of the hero's society? Now with crossovers! Be warned if you don't like to see OCs messing up the timeline or DC and other stuff showing up. I swear I'm not randomly adding stuff and there is a legitimate (as far as comic books and fanfics can be) plot reason why. (I'll be honest, I don't know "cannon" marvel really... I watched some movies and animated series as a kid, but I haven't picked up a comic in years. This is just some light-hearted and casual writing for fun. If there are any errors or something you think would be cool please let me know.) I'm also trying to have multiple main characters so that might be jarring for some people while I switch perspective. Sorry in advance, I'm new at this and idk what I'm doing, advice and feedback gladly welcomed!

Condemned
“The human body is a fragile thing. But the soul... The soul is malleable. Easily tainted. All it takes is one drop of blood to dye it all red.” Long ago, in a time remembered only by a few, the seven lords of Syvernia, led by the Great Hero Ludwig, ended the Great Calamity that plagued humanity for as long as time itself. It was the dawn of a new age of man. . . until the thirst for more poisoned the new lords. Slowly, the thread that held humanity together loosened and a thick haze consumed the lands between. Mysterious vanishings, supernatural forces, and silence warns of a looming threat inside the coat of fog. Though the struggle of the realms did not interest Leor, for he was condemned as a Purblight, until he took a seemingly simple job: escort Alden to Lightendale and collect the handsome reward, a reward that would let him live the rest of his life with ease. But it’s never that simple, especially for someone who denounced the Gods. All his life, death followed Leor everywhere he went, cutting down his friends and family. When his first love died at the hands of an agent of light, he was prepared to throw everything away until a mysterious voice promised him a chance for retribution and a chance to bring her back by completing the seven trials. Thrown into the realm's struggle against the approaching haze and themselves, will Leor, a Purblight and an acquaintance of tragedy, use the very power he disdains to accomplish his goals? This is the rewrite of my novel: Condemned; I changed it to past tense and added/ took out some ideas from the original. This is essentially the first draft since I'm writing as I go. Also, there might be or might not be Gore, Sexual, or Traumatizing content. I only put it there for a disclaimer in case I want to add it. I have no set release schedule yet, but I'll try to post once every 2 week. Thanks for your patience.
