Nightmare Before Christmas Tattoos

Synopsis: On Earth, gaming isn't just a hobby; it’s a way of life. Gamers are revered, their earnings rivaling those of CEOs and their influence shaping governments. At the very top stands Malachi Reed, the Immortal, a title reserved for the best of the best. For 20 years, he dominated the gaming world, leading his team, The Emperors, to countless victories. But fame comes with enemies. On the way to a championship event, Malachi and his team are ambushed by Team Blazers, their bitter rivals. What should’ve been a celebration turned into a bloodbath. When Malachi opened his eyes again, it wasn’t on Earth—it was in Tattooria, a fantasy world where the stakes are as high as in his games, but now his life is the currency. Reincarnated with his gaming instincts intact, Malachi finds himself in a world of swordplay, magic, and a mysterious system that feels eerily like the games he once ruled. But here, there are no respawns, no save points, and no teammates. With only his wits and his will to survive, Malachi must carve his path from the bottom once more. Will he rise to become the Immortal of Tattooria, or will this world be the ultimate boss that finally ends his streak? The game might have changed, but Malachi is still playing to win. Game on.

Tattoo of Fate In a world where dragons are extinct and the kingdom above reigns with unchecked power, Kaida, a young orphan from the forsaken undercity, carries a secret that could change everything. Marked at birth with a glowing, mystical tattoo, she is the last living vessel of the Dragon God, the ancient and forgotten deity of the now-extinct dragons. For years, she has concealed her extraordinary power, knowing that if the Surface Kingdoms ever discovered it, she would become a weapon to be controlled—or worse, destroyed. Kaida’s life takes a tragic turn when her forbidden love, Elara, a noblewoman from the Surface, discovers the tattoo and the immense power Kaida harbors. Fearing its potential, Elara betrays Kaida, selling her to the rulers of the Surface. Now hunted by those who seek to use her for their own agendas, Kaida is thrust into a deadly game where every alliance is fragile, and every step could lead to her downfall. In her flight from the Surface Kingdoms, Kaida encounters Aeron, a fierce and principled warrior from the top side, who was once sent to capture her. Disillusioned by the corrupt kingdom she serves, Aeron defies her orders and chooses to protect Kaida instead. As their paths intertwine, Aeron becomes both a guardian and an unlikely companion, offering Kaida a chance at redemption and love after the betrayal that shattered her heart. But the Dragon God within Kaida is waking, and with it, a force far more dangerous than she ever imagined.
