Madeleine Astor

Astor Valenford was born a noble, the second son of a prestigious family of dukes. Many might think he was born with a silver spoon, but the reality was quite different. At the tender age of ten, Astor witnessed a younger brother challenge the talent of the Valenford's firstborn. It was then that his mother decided to end the life of that young son of hers, to pave the way for her eldest son. Upon witnessing this, Astor realized the cruel reality and that his only means of survival was to avoid being a threat to his older brother. Thus, Astor lived for years, acting uselessly—at least, until news arrived that changed his objectives.

Title: Crimson Oath Synopsis: When 23-year-old game developer Adrian Cross dies in a freak accident, he wakes up as Vincent Astor, the notorious villain’s son from -Crimson Oath- , the fantasy RPG he helped create. Born into the infamous Astor family, Vincent is destined to follow his mother, the feared "Witch of Evernight," down a path of darkness that ultimately leads to his demise at the hands of the game's hero. But now that Adrian inhabits Vincent’s body, he has no intention of letting the story play out as written. Armed with insider knowledge of the game’s mechanics and plot, Vincent resolves to avoid becoming the villain and instead forge a brighter future. His first challenge? Surviving the prestigious yet cutthroat -Grand Arcanum Academy-, the central hub for training the next generation of nobles, heroes, and mages. The Academy is both an opportunity and a minefield for Vincent. Here, he must prove his worth among the children of dukes, kings, and other powerful figures while avoiding the hero and their companions. Yet, his attempts to stay under the radar backfire spectacularly when his unconventional actions begin to draw attention—both admiration and suspicion. Complicating matters further, Vincent’s mother, Lady Seraphina, has arranged for him to succeed her dark legacy. Her enigmatic letters and cryptic warnings cast a shadow over his attempts to forge a new path. Meanwhile, the Academy is rife with rivalries, dangerous alliances, and secrets, including an underground network tied to a brewing conflict that Vincent thought he had scripted merely as background lore. Despite his intentions to remain neutral, Vincent begins to make unexpected connections: a cold and aloof princess ranked at the top of their class, a sharp-tongued commoner with a chip on his shoulder, and even the hero themself, who seem different from what he remembers. As he navigates the high-stakes environment of the Academy, Vincent realizes that his actions are causing ripple effects far beyond his control. Now caught between his desire to rewrite his fate and the growing pressure to fulfill his destined role as the villain’s heir, Vincent must decide what kind of person he wants to become—and what sacrifices he’s willing to make to achieve it. -Themes: - Redemption in the shadow of a villainous legacy - Friendship and rivalry in a competitive academy setting - Political intrigue and alliances among noble families - The blurred line between hero and villain Will Vincent rise above his destiny, or will his choices lead him back to the darkness he so desperately wants to avoid? At the Grand Arcanum Academy, the stakes have never been higher—and neither has the risk of failure.

Astor was the first son of the HighFangs’ Alpha, a young man who was supposed to be the next leader of the pack if fate had not decided to laugh at him On the tragic day he was born, he brought a curse with him, that’s what everyone told him, and that’s why everyone hated him. Growing up he had never felt happiness. The abuse and loneliness made him hate his pack, his own people, but a promise to his mother kept him chained there, unable to be free. “My poor Astor, please help your brother become a good leader. My lovely child, forgive me” she had pleaded before she left him. He would always do as he was told, stay silent, and obey trying to not lose the last bit of family he had, the little purpose in his life until even his own family betrayed him. The brother he had tried so hard to support had thrown him away, leaving him in a place he did not know with a man that scared him, hovering over him like a deadly beast. “I must truly be cursed.” He had cried, wishing for his life to end. “You? Cursed? How can someone as beautiful as you be cursed?” the man told him and from that moment on his whole life changed.

[completed] Willow Astor is, or at least was, a completely normal guy. That is, until he went in a forest, started a fire, and ended up transmigrating. In a bl novel. It would've been somewhat alright if that certain novel didn't have a fujoshi narcissist sister who transmigrated with him, an obviously smitten male lead, over the top characters and the things his sister made him do 'for the sake of the plot'! Can a straight guy survive in a place where every single person is a stereotypical bl character? Or would he be bent and forced to give in to became a typical bottom?

It was a long time ago, but she knew she had this ridiculous name that when she was young, made everyone laugh. Recalling it vaguely, it had been years since it popped at the back of her mind— now all she could remember was how the Astor name causes her stress every once in a while. She was now Ingrid Astor, a bona fide noble in the land of the rising sun— or was it (uh, maybe it's the name of a country in her previous life?) –she couldn't remember anymore. It was a blurry and a cloudy mess inside her mind. There is only one thing she is sure though, she is inside an otome game she played a long time ago. • Ingrid Astor, a member of a prestigious family, a true noble woman, found herself in a weird situation. She was now a villian inside an otome game she played when she was a teenager, "Rise of Greed". There were a few routes which she would find herself into and none of them were good— it was composed of dying easily and dying tragically. Instead of dwelling with the problem, she nonchalantly threw it at the back of her mind. Easy peasy. Dealing with brats? She could do that. • Hello this is already dropped since I've written this a few years ago. I'm planning to rewrite this after I've finished my other novel — All I Need is Power.

A boy with a curious heart, a girl with a fiery passion, a broken kingdom with a fragile monarchy and... -a series of contradictions-

In a world where villains are made, and heroes were born. The opposing communities cursed each other till they reach their graves, decades of non-stop fighting and voices that never lowered. Villains were unfortunately causing buildings to come crumbling down to pieces, houses left to be ashes blending in with the dirt. Cities was left astray, only being a part of memories on those who have lived in those parts. Fragile shards could be heard crunching as those who have never left those cities steps a foot on the parted pieces. Younger generations clasped their hands, praying to be influenced by a hero one day, or atleast someday. Although their fate couldn't be predicted... If they have become a villain, they shall pursue their duties as a villain.

A childhood friend. A simple favour. A huge lie. When Madeleine needs help from her elementary school crush Zoe, she is all to happy to oblige on the condition that Madeleine owed her. Then the favours begin to pile up until Zoe finally uses all that debt to get Madeleine to help her pull off a huge lie. Drama ensues.

In a dimly lit, cramped room, filled with the soft hum of multiple computer fans, Astor was slumped over his desk. Mountains of manga, figurines of his waifu collection, and half-eaten bags of chips surrounded him. His life, if you could call it that, was a continuous cycle of anime, video games, and junk food. But even in this state of aimlessness, Astor often daydreamed of a different life. "Damn, if only I could get a do-over," he'd think to himself after a particularly bad game round or upon seeing the protagonist in one of his favorite isekai series living their best life. One fateful night, after binging on a new series till 3 AM and surrounded by empty energy drink cans, Astor's wish was unexpectedly granted. With blurry vision, he clicked on a suspicious-looking pop-up ad that said, "Wanna start over? Click here for a new life." It sounded like the start of a visual novel he once played, but before he could even process it, his world went black. Sunlight pierced through unfamiliar curtains. Astor... or was he still Astor? Groaning, he slowly sat up. His room was vastly different—spacious, clean, adorned with what appeared to be... medieval decorations? Feeling strangely more athletic and less sluggish, he found his way to a mirror. Staring back at him was a younger, more handsome face with sharp features, although the eyes—those were still unmistakably Astor's. "Dude... did I just get isekai'd?" He whispered, wide-eyed. Suddenly, the door burst open, and a tall, formidable-looking man stepped in. "Ah, young master Kai, you're finally awake. Your training begins today!" "Kai? Training? Bro, I just wanted to level up in my MMO, not in real life," Astor thought.

Madeleine and Kayden haven't seen each other for seven years but what happens when she finally does head back home after hearing of some financial problems for her father?

Archmage Astor has reached the pinnacle of magic... and is sick of it. Once one of the heroes who saved the world, he's now resides in his tower with nothing to do. Until his fellow hero reveals he comes from another world, without magic. Astor comes up with a brilliant idea, to restart his life in that magicless world... oblivious to how difficult that will actually be.

They say that the princesses must be educated to get a man, yet that is not what Madeleine wanted, soon he would ascend to the throne because his father was agonizing on his deathbed. The future queen should go through times of great difficulty, men willing to seek his heart to obtain his kingdom, his crown and the power that all entailed; Madeleine was and would be a steel queen, strong and almost indestructible.
