《In Your Dreams: a Harry X Voldemort|Tom》The Council and the Challenge...
Advertisement
Narrator's POV
The next day, Severus Snape, the Carrow Twins, and twelve random members of the Outer Circle showed up for the challenge.
They waited for several minutes before the Dark Lord entered the room, "Seems that only fifteen of you dared to attempt this challenge, but only one of you will come out on top."
Bellatrix LeStrange and Lucius Malfoy entered the room.
"Your challenge is to defeat Lucius and Bellatrix. If two of you defeat one each, you will duel each other for the spot. Good luck and try not to kill each other." Lord Voldemort informed, sitting at his throne
As soon as the words left his mouth, curses were thrown and the fighting began.

While Death Eaters fought for the chance to be his protector, Harry held his own meeting.
All of his friends, including the Weasleys —except Ron, Arthur, and Molly— and his foreign friends, were there.
Harry explained the situation to them, and asked his friends who had no familial connection to the Dark to join him and offered Oblivation if they refused.
They looked offended at the Oblivation offer and assured him of their choice.
"Then you guys will have to swear loyalty to me." Harry informed
Theo went first: "I, Theodore Tadeus Nott-Krum, pledge my body, magic and soul to thee, Harry James Potter, my chosen master. I pledge to uphold your beliefs, to fight for your goals, to live and die by your word. So I pledge it, so mote be it."
"I, Neville Rodolphus LeStrange, pledge my body, magic and soul to thee, Harry James Potter, my chosen master. I pledge to uphold your beliefs, to fight for your goals, to live and die by your word. So I pledge it, so mote be it." Neville swore

"I, Luna Elizabeth Lovegood-LeStrange, pledge my body, magic and soul to thee, Harry James Potter, my chosen master. I pledge to uphold your beliefs, to fight for your goals, to live and die by your word. So I pledge it, so mote be it." Luna swore

Once George finished his pledge, the sixteen people felt their left forearms tingle, they lifted their sleeves and saw it marked.
"You guys will be referred to as Mercy's Council as a group. There won't be any codenames or anything for you guys because you'll never be singled out and your identities will remain a secret. Unlike the designed masks the other Death Eaters wear, you guys will wear a plain black face mask to keep yourself apart but completely hidden." Harry informed them
***
As the fighting raged on, the twelve randoms were defeated by Bellatrix and Lucius so only the Carrow Twins and Severus remained.
Severus was deterred to be Mercy's Protector since he cared for Harry and wanted to be sure of his safety, while the Carrows only wanted it for the rewards.
While Bella was fighting Alecto, Severus sent a "Stupefy" at her and Bella fell unconscious.
Before Snape could send the knockout spell to Lucius as well, Amycus knocked the Malfoy Lord out.
Within seconds, the potions master threw "Stupefy" to Amycus before the other male could react.
Severus won the challenge and he was now Lady Mercy's Protector...

A Titan's Crusade
Erik Thayne spent most of his life being brutally ridiculed and tormented for his weight and physical appearance, among other things. A social pariah and diagnosed with an eating disorder no one has an explanation or treatment for, Erik spent years trying to overcome his issues with his personal image and escape the ridicule and vicious torment of his peers. After years of dedicated effort, and a fresh start in a town away from his childhood and adolescent tormentors, he had finally begun to truly realize what he'd been striving for all along. Only, fate apparently has other plans because in the blink of an eye, Erik found himself snatched from Earth and taken to another universe, another world, where he is offered the chance to be more than he'd ever imagined. Now, he has to fight to restore the Balance between Chaos and Order on a world of swords and magic, in a universe governed by the System's laws, which resemble those of RPGs from Earth. Erik learned to embrace the things about himself that others taught him to hate, using them to reforge his physical identity into something more removed from his old self-loathing. But can he learn to embrace the darkest parts of his mind just as he did the reviled aspects of his body and become who he needs to be to succeed in the task set before him? It might just prove easier to stalk in the dark as a monster than to walk in the light as a man... *This is my first time publishing anything I've written to a public audience. Due to formatting issues, I forwent traditional stat-screens for something a little less problematic, delineating stat screens by separating them from regular text with horizontal lines in a lighter-grey coloration. Let me know if you like them or not. Criticism is entirely welcome, but please don't hate on my work after only reading 1 chapter. This is a writing project I intend to complete but I have committment problems so we'll see how long this goes on. Also, fair warning, as the description implies, the main protagonist is intended to be someone who has been treated cruelly, developed antisocial tendencies, and ultimately has to question his own humanity--or lack thereof. This story is not intended to be brutally dark but I will definitely be trying to follow a darker theme. It is intended to be violent and some scenes later in the story might be...alarming. There will likely also be some light, non-graphic (think more implied with crude jokes and conversation than actual details, there will be no full-blown sex scenes)relationship scenes planned later and if you're opposed to either a bisexual or gay main character, stay away. I haven't yet decided which way he's going to swing but the odds on him being straight are relatively miniscule, and I've always wanted to write a story about a gay man who basically looks like a lumberjack because who doesn't like giving conventional stereo-types the middle finger? This will NOT be a harem story, and I have no intention to focus on romance over action--it's a consequence of character development where I'm concerned, not the be-all-end-all of the story. The cover-art does not, in any way, belong to me. It was an image titled the Druid King (by duskanmarkovic according to the file name) which I found on Google Images. Until I can get something commissioned, this is the best stand-in image I could find.

A Dungeon Tested
Its a hard life balancing all the things a successful dungeon should be doing. Will our newest addition to the dungeon race even survive let alone make it to the top where dungeons such as the megafauna roam? Or will our main character suffer in the dust till some inauspicious and ignoble death at the end of some F-rankers sword? Note this is me having some fun while I wait for new releases of dungeon stories. Feel free to comment on that basis. I will be keeping the first few chapters slow so as to give me plenty to build upon later. I have tentatively given this the gore tag for now. With that in mind "Let the games begin".
