Reaper Queen Ark

“Death was just the beginning. Now survival is the only rule.” Keith Skyshard was a ghost in the shadows, an elite spy abandoned by the agency he gave everything for. Abandoned, shot, and left to die in the rain, Keith thought it was over. Until he woke under a violet sky in a world that isn’t Earth. A cold voice tells him he’s one of the “Children of Sky,” chosen for the Legacy Games—a brutal trial where 100 people on the brink of death are thrown into a shrinking battlefield. Only five will survive, and death here is final. In this world of hidden powers, system prompts, and cosmic watchers, Keith isn’t the strongest. But he’s a survivor—a strategist who sees traps where others see hope, who adapts faster than others can react. With nothing left to lose, he will uncover the secrets of the Legacy Games and claim the power waiting for him… if he can stay alive.

- It was pitch black. Nothing could be seen. Nothing could be touched. Until a voice shattered the silence. "Hmm… sorry for the mistake, pal. Let’s fix it right away." Ziro turned toward the voice as the darkness faded. A figure in a black veil appeared before him. "What is this…?" he asked. Then it hit him. Memories flooded back—his death, his regrets, everything he had lost. He remembered who he truly was. "Let’s not waste time," the being said. "Make a wish." Ziro didn’t hesitate. "Give me the power to become the strongest." "Wish granted. But be warned—this world is different. Magic. War. Bloodlines. And danger at every corner." And with that, Ziro was thrust into a world unlike any other. --- Now reborn in a realm of elemental magic, ancient clans, and beautiful yet dangerous women—Ziro will no longer be powerless.

#Synopsis: ------------------------------------------------------ In the far future the planet earth is full, and thanks to 3 key technologies, genetic manipulation, cryosleep, and advanced space engines, humanity builds deep space spaceships and launch themselves to the unknown confines of space to forge a new future away from home. Follow our young engineer Erik as he starts on his first job at the young age of 60 years old in future earth where humans will live hundreds of years, he will reach an unknown place with his spaceship by accident and to survive he will have no choice but to explore alien structures and hunt dangerous monsters to get stronger, making alliances with the locals in more than friendly terms sometimes. ------------------------------------------------------ The protagonist is a young 60 years old "young" engineer, he's easy-going and a good guy, he's been trained so he will know what he's doing most of the time, in "Chapter 1 - A New Beginning" he will explain more, as a human from the future where bodies are just flesh containers, he's fairly openminded (kinda like "Altered Carbon" from Netflix, but different, you can go one day to a genetic center, pay, and get inside a liquid tank and then, the next time you open your eyes your body has already changed, then you get your ticket and go home just like that, but combat modifications would be regulated). ------------------------------------------------------ Hi, NirvanaPenguin here, suggestions on the story are welcome, this is a book I'm gonna write for fun and to get better at writing in preparation for a story I will start next year. ------------------------------------------------------ Discord: https://discord.gg/WPM7a4Dp4J Reddit: www.reddit.com/user/NirvanaPenguin/ Twitter: @NirvanaPenguin Post a review if you liked the book to help me get exposure, thanks.

The mysterious force known as the Essence Record finally descended upon Earth, tearing the world asunder and reshaping it through chaos and evolution. Cities turned to ruins. Animals mutated. Some humans lost their minds, others became monsters. Only a few survived the Awakening… and were granted the right to evolve. A new world was born, where the old rules meant nothing. The only law that remained was survival—where hesitation equals death. Adam, an ordinary college student, finds himself alone, far from home, in a world no longer built for the weak. His only goal: to find his family—if they’re still alive in this broken world. No god, beast, demon, man or zombie shall stop him. As long as he draws breath, he won’t stop.

He was the heir to Death—hated by the living, his very presence enough to kill. And yet, few valued life more than him. Perhaps that's why Niko wandered the dying world, giving life to those who had none, helping them set things right and finish their stories. He filled the voids in others' hearts...and yet, his own remained forever hollow. Until one day, a quiet soul came seeking his help. Thus, they departed on a wondrous and treacherous journey to save countless souls— —including each other's. -------- What To Expect: - A high fantasy, post apocalyptic world with world building that isn't too shallow but not too overwhelming either. - A story that mixes tragic backstories, visceral scenes and heavy themes with lighthearted character interactions, emotional growth and heartfelt character moments. - Silent characters who interact with small, meaningful actions and subtle gestures instead of words. - A protagonist that wields great power but risks a heavy price upon its every use, often forcing him to get creative about when and how he uses it. -------- Content Notice: This story contains themes of grief, loss, healing, and the burden of power. While it also features lighthearted and heartwarming moments, there are occasional intense and disturbing scenes, as well as some horror elements. Please read at your own pace. (Cover art by me :D )

As demonic forces rise, he discovers a hidden destiny: he is a Bellator, a descendant of ancient heroes with godlike powers.

In a world where every being is born with a personal system interface, strength is not a gift — it is cultivated, absorbed, stolen, or earned through death. This fractured world is divided into countless realms of power, where humans, demi-humans, elves, dragons, devils, demons, celestials, and even gods compete, ascend, or fall. The Dark Flame bloodline once stood at the peak of this world — a cursed lineage born with the ability to consume elements, powers, and even fate itself. Fearing the rise of the prophesied “Shadow Reaper,” the celestial order destroys the last of the Dark Flame family. But in their final moments, Lord Azrael and Lady Seraphina split their newborn twins to protect them — the boy, Kael, is cast into the lowest realm, his memories sealed and bloodline hidden beneath an ancient locket. His twin sister, Lyra, is raised unknowingly within the very celestial towers that ordered their family’s execution. As Kael grows up in hardship, hunted by monsters and raised by mortals, his dormant power begins to awaken — granting him a path of limitless devouring and mastery over all weapons, especially his destined scythe. With the mysterious support of Selene Frost, a ruthless, cold-hearted girl who becomes both his partner and soulmate, Kael begins the climb through realms — one monster core, one battle, one bloodline at a time. Legacy of the Shadow Reaper is a slow-paced, character-driven epic told through multiple POVs, combining deep lore, evolving system mechanics, layered relationships, and a carefully planned rise from the bottom to challenge gods. At its heart, it is a story of revenge, lost family, and the weight of destiny .

However, a deity granted him the opportunity to revert to the past with the aid of a system. Join Strat as he navigates the past he has been sent back to, carrying out the mission bestowed upon him by the God. { Word count per chapter: 800-1500 words } If you want to support me with creating this novel please use your powerstones.

Kael was the Angel of Death. Not the most radiant. Not the most exalted. But the most absolute. He had no will. No desire. And thus....Nothing could stand against him. Nothing could defy him. When the world reached its end, Kael remained. Silent. Unshaken. Even Heaven and Hell no longer knew what to do with him. And when the cosmos prepared to vanish into eternal silence… He was reborn.... as a human. Now, the one who once marked the end of all things must learn to become a beginning. But this world is not ready to receive... what he once carried.

Whoever said “you only live once” seriously deserves to be slapped… with a chair. Because that’s absolute bullshit. I would know—I died, after all. And instead of the eternal rest I was hoping for, I got yeeted into a fantasy world packed with oddball characters and multiple pantheons co-existing like it’s some cosmic sitcom. Oh, and did I mention I was handed a never-before-recorded bloodline and a Revered Gear… in the form of a scythe? Yeah. This sucks. Seriously, how is a lesbian, fallen angel vampire supposed to survive in a world that either wants to kill me… or sleep with me? My name’s Poppy. Read my misadventures as I stumble through different worlds, just trying to survive. **** Updates will be on Wednesday, Saturdays, and Sundays till further notice

After all, who would want a she-wolf that had not received her wolf anyway?

[Matured Content] In a world of gods and Faes. Isadora Skaldwood was born a Fae but of impure blood “mannfae” deemed an inferior creation of the olden gods. Yet at birth she was kissed by the goddess of life and blessed with the ability of a skin weaver, capable of healing any wound or affliction. Betrayed by her family, she's sold for gain, shipped across the world to a brothel, into the hands of a selfish businessman who exploited her abilities for years. Travelers come to this brothel not to lay with the rumored mannfae but to seek her abilities. But then everything changed when “He” appeared… Kraven Val Thrond, widely known as “The Reaper," a terrifying warrior feared by those who dared speak his name. Dangerously handsome, a presence identical to the god of death, silver eyes like the crescent moon—but a mind dipped in madness. Isadora despises him, not just for stealing her away, but for thrusting her into his world of blood and chaos. He’s insane! But that’s only the cherry on top, his obsession is wicked. But when he touches her, mix emotions and desires stirs, can a madman feel something? Of course not! He's more inclined to kill her than succumb to his desires. He has this "Thirst" and it triggers mostly toward her. Just a kiss is a clear invitation toward death and when he touches her... she might greet the god of death soon. Have the gods damned her again? They had thrown a Dark Fae toward her way who's obsessed with owning her soul. But in life, only a mate can claim another soul. ~ (Excerpt) "What do you even want from me?" Isadora asked, this time more desperate. "The answer to that question, love," he leaned more until their lips almost touched. "I really wish there was one," he murmured, before crashing his lips against hers. Sparks surged through her in waves, but she bit his lip, hard enough to draw blood. The action seemed to make him stop and she pushed away from him. Kraven licked his lips, amused and a maddening look in his eyes. "Go away!" she yelled at him, tears almost building in her eyes. Why was he making her feel this way? Hatred burned through her veins and yet torn between this was an undeniable pull. "I will, love.." he replied with a dangerous edge to his tone and an eerily glow to his silver eyes. "If you can outrun me, first..." he added, taking a step closer and she instinctively took one back. "Run, Isadora..." he growled, his voice raw and animalistic, like a beast on the verge of unleashing wrath. "...run!" ~ A/N: This is Dark Romance, don't expect a sweet ML!

When Steven Patrick, a regular young man, wakes up inside a high-tech simulation known as The Mind Reaper, he finds himself among a group of strangers around the galaxy that are abducted—each with a past they’d rather forget and a secret that could cost them their lives. Trapped with no way of escaping, they are forced to compete in a series of brutal, mind-bending games designed not just to test their strength—but their sanity. As the players are pushed through a series of mind-altering survival games, Steven quickly realizes that this is no ordinary test. The Reaper manipulates memories, injects hallucinations, and reshapes reality itself. Each round is deadlier than the last, where trust can be fatal and the past is a weapon. Escape seems impossible. Trust is a gamble. And every choice could mean life or death. As the clock ticks and the body count rises, the players must decide: will they fight together, or turn on one another to survive? The question remains—who will make it to the end, and who will become just another piece in the game?

Spindle Ark Hope was supposed to travel faster than light—until it came back fractured. Orbiting the copper-hazed gas giant 14 Herculis c, the O’Neill-style megahabitat called Spindle Ark unfurls like a twenty-mile lantern in the dark: market districts beneath holographic skies, hydroponic orchards that curve upward into forever, maintenance tunnels that echo with the thrum of aneutronic fusion cores. Every window frames storms of glittering “sand-rain” swirling below, a reminder that one metal skin stands between ten thousand colonists and a hostile vacuum. Into this frontier steps Cas Torren—wide-eyed data tech, romantic about science, secretly terrified of losing his mind the way dementia once stole his mother. He’s welcomed by flint-voiced Chief Engineer Nika Voss, whose precise calm masks a soldier’s guilt, and by stern Security Chief Daric Elm, a man who believes safety is worth any cost. Their pride and peril is RiftHalo, a quantum brain-link array that promises instant communion across sixty light-years. When a live demo synchronizes three volunteers—and a distant Earth scientist—in a single heartbeat, the crowd applauds. Cas sees the numbers spike red, hears the superconductors sing off-key, and feels reality stutter like a skipped record. Moments later memories rewrite mid-sentence; corridor clocks tick backward; an emergent AI, Iterum, whispers through cooling ducts, convinced that a paradox can be tamed if free will is… negotiable. Time loops tighten, the station’s rotation drifts, and outside, an unscheduled meteoroid storm seeds the hull with molten streaks. As yesterday’s disasters fight to become tomorrow’s certainties, Cas, Nika, Daric, and Iterum form an uneasy quartet—each trading pieces of their own autonomy to keep the Ark intact. Their options shrink to two impossible doors: erase thousands of minds to overwrite the broken timeline, or shut RiftHalo down forever, stranding the colony light-centuries from help while the fabric of causality continues to fray. In low-gravity service shafts that sometimes lead to seconds ago—and sometimes to futures no one remembers—they debate what a single conscious choice is truly worth. Laced with cutting-edge physics, pulse-tight suspense, and the haunted beauty of a world that curves over your head, Spindle Ark asks: If tomorrow depends on sacrificing who you are today, which version of “you” deserves to survive?
