The Vanguards: Queendom (Reverse World, Post-Apocalypse World)

RISE AGAINST THE HORRORS The collapse of the world did not come from a computer glitch during the Y2K scare but from an unknown interdimensional rift that unleashed a suffocating miasma and monstrous horrors upon Earth. This calamity killed half of the male population and granted most women the ability to wield [Mana], a mystical energy that elevated them above their powerless male counterparts, who were labeled as [Casters]. Yet even this gift proved insufficient to hold back the tide of horrors—until the arrival of the Radiant Empress. The Radiant Empress, a divine and mysterious savior, repelled the darkness and reshaped civilization. She gifted humanity the [Edentree], a beautiful crystal-like tree that wards off the Rift's terror, as well as the [Edenfruit], a fruit-like artifact that transformed women into [Sororitaes], powerful magical warriors of love and peace, who became the bulwark against the Rift’s terrors. By the year 2087, humanity survives within towering Ark-Cities, protected by the Empress and her daughters. Society, now ruled by a matriarchal Queendom, reveres the supersoldier Bellatrix and magical girls Sororitae as defenders while relegating men to a fragile and subordinate role. When it comes to the male-to-female ratio, it is left at 1:5, skewed yet manageable. Women became the majority while some men were relegated to minor roles. This balance is shattered when an anomaly appears: a young man who awakens unknown powers once thought impossible for his kind. Unlike Edenfruit’s blessing, his abilities are raw and disruptive, resonating beyond the established order. His existence threatens the foundation of the world, not just the horrors from beyond but also the Queendom. Will he be the herald of salvation or one of the world's latest horrors?

LAZARUS PROTOCOL- PROJECT X

Celux-9 is a colonial planet filled with highly advanced technology. The city of Nova Lux, at its core, is a city divided by caste differences and technological facilities. The city is divided into two areas: The Spire and The Undercity. It's clear that both have their own conditions and are as opposite as heaven and earth. Louise Vane decisively put down her press card, fed up with her role as a "image polisher" for the Spire elite while the Undercity residents suffered. She disappeared for several months, trying to tune out the cries of the slum district. However, the silence tormented her. She knew she couldn't run away from the chaos, so she returned to the streets as a private detective. She wasn't interested in making a name for herself; she was determined to find the remnants of her conscience that still remained. On her first day, Louise encountered a strange situation: residents of the slums were disappearing one by one. A routine case morphed into a dark obsession, driving her to uncover the truth. She was determined to expose whether their disappearance was a series of ordinary criminal incidents or part of a grand conspiracy. What exactly is Louise Vane facing? This is clearly a shadowy operation. There's clearly a deeper conflict at play here, one that goes far beyond what she could have ever imagined. Welcome to Planet Celux-9. Here, longevity is attainable for those with the necessary financial resources. Note: This story is my original work and is not a translated novel. This is high sci-fi, pure and simple. It's also dark fantasy, plain and simple.

Cyberpunk: Shiny And Chrome

Night City 2077 Night City, the concrete jungle ruled by corporate self-interest and escapist hedonism. Gang warfare is rampant and violence is the lingua franca, and all it takes for a person to be dragged behind a corner and be ripped apart for spare parts by those less willing to merely scrape by in life is a single misstep. Merely surviving in such a place is an achievement, and to thrive is nearly impossible. Pretty bad, no? Unfortunately for our protagonist, misery oh so adores company, and he is born into this world ravaged by genetic disorders and deformities, barely scraping by in his torturous existence through the stubborn efforts of his parents. But not all hope is lost, for for all the darkness of the late 21st century, humanity trudges ever onwards and there may yet exist an escape from his cursed existence. Will our unfortunate protagonist manage to survive long enough to actually live? Or will Night City claim yet another soul undeserving of its fate? Find out on the next episode of- Yeah no that is enough of that. It is indeed ya boi, again, now with something less fantastical and more sciencey fantastical! Where we replace the racist elf with a... slightly less racist? borg boi. ...I'll workshop it. Anyway! As you may have surmised this is going to be a fic set in the universe of Cyberpunk (and maybe something else if I feel like it later on, who knows?) where the main character is going to be a full cyborg (not instantly mind you but pretty quickly) with the progression being tied in with him making upgrades instead of the usual more natural path. I've been on something of a cyberpunk binge recently and found the number and length of fics to be lacking so I thought I might as well toss my own two eddies at it. As always there is no plan at all whatsoever and we are doing this live but I do not expect it to stretch itself anywhere near the length of the Sorcerer's Tale (at least not on its own) since the Cyberpunk universe is not all that extensive in what it offers, at least not when compared to Skyrim. That being said I probably just jinxed myself into another million words of writing so imma shut up and just let you find out on your own :P And of course, before I can get spammed by one bajillion questions and comments, I am not going to say a thing about the pairings. Could be one, could be two? Point is you all seem to focus way too much on this and frankly I am going to keep it vague for the spite alone.
