Marvel's Phantom
Dying sucks. Waking up in a world filled with Aliens, Gods, and Monsters sucksx2. Learning that I'm technically still dead, well that takes the cake.
8 291Pursuit of Eternal
This Story is about Dev's pursuit of Eternal. We follow Dev as he passes hurdles, one after another to Grab Immortality and control Time. What If you lose everything, but you still have a chance to reclaim everything back. Dev got the same chance after losing everything and left with nothing. This is Dev's journey from nothing to everything. How will Dev achieve his Goal? Join me and we will all walk through this journey of his struggle to the peak. ************************************************ [I'm writing for the first time, so there'll be issues with my way of writing, but as I learn I'll also edit the changes which could be done to the chapter. Please don't give up on me and my book. Please read the chapters, and tell me what I can do to make it better. If people don't like the story then what's the point of writing it.] [Sorry for Grammatical mistakes. English is not my main language. There will be some problems with punctuation. I can assure you that there won't be any problems in understanding what I'm trying to say.]
8 160The Devil's Chosen
Tobias lives the life everyone wants... though that's only on the outside. At home, he faces abuse and awful, unloving parents. That is, until the fateful day when he dies.
8 114Daeniya, My Child
With the birth of Emperor Daurellian, the most prominent empire on the continent of Daeniya, Il Allad, sees a prophecy of destruction in its near future. In seeking out the key to prevent such destruction, Daurellian rapidly advances its arrival. Only a small group of individuals who are members of the secret society known simply as the Ring understand the prophecy, and, as such, do what they must to stop Daurellian before he creates his own demise and ends the world itself. While tensions rise on the continent and people are forced to war, a singular force looms in the background, slowly growing and amassing potential.
8 129The Core of a Factory
An abandoned steampunk arms factory, in the middle of a conflict torn former state of the Empire it served, gains a soul. This transforms it into a Lord, capable of turning land into power. Beset by enemies on all sides it must figure out how to win the war its creators lost a century ago. This is a progressive Dungeon Core novel (which is to say the core will progress and expand in scale, eventually) across multiple dimensions with different characteristics (e.g. steampunk, magic, mythological). It has rationalist leanings (paragraphs of reasoning) and litrpg leanings (there are stat blocks). The core game mechanical idea is something like "what if different flavors of magic power actually did come from controlling land" and then the story is: "what if there was a flavorless (artifact deck) dungeon core". Chapters will be relatively short (my aim is that in three column format each would fit on a wide screen monitor), the first few chapters - setting up the main character and mechanics - are currently the longest in the entire series. I write chapters in blocks, and then release them one a weekday (M-F; 6 PM GMT, unless RoyalRoad's publish thing screws up) until I run out. There may be a few days of gaps here and there if someone finds an egregious error I have to re-write around or if I am behind. In general though one can read this once a weekend. I may do slight retconns and edits, I'll make sure to put it in an authors note if I do.
8 89Velteria: The Thief
(Indefinite Hiatus) Life was fine, if a little harsh, for Liliei, a young thief living in one of the biggest city on the continent. That is, until she stole an old ring, and everything went wrong. One of my goal in writing this is to improve my writing skills, so do tell if you have constructive criticism.
