Critical Role Exu Calamity

[From the Author of Author's POV...] Emotions are like a drug to us. The more we experience them, the more we become addicted. The hardest part is not letting them consume us. But it's already too late for me. I've already been swallowed whole. *** I had no knowledge of the game. I was meant to have died. And yet, I found myself in this situation. A game I had never played before. A character I was unfamiliar with, and... A world that seemed to want to swallow me whole with every move I made. What the hell is going on? ...and who am I? *** Discord : https://discord.gg/PEbN7fc2ww

When the crowd had finished cheering, Sirius stood and walked toward his throne. Everyone believed the coronation was finished but instead of sitting down, he took ahold of Saoirse's hand.  "Now before we crown my queen I would like to ask my people how loyal will you be towards her?" Everyone's attention was drawn to Saoirse who confidently rose to her feet. The room remained silent because normally it wouldn't be a question a king would ask. They had to be loyal to him, not her. She was just a woman and the men ruled the vampires.  No one answered him so he called for one of the nobles to step forward. "Please state your answer, will you be loyal to my wife?" He asked to the man.  The man got flustered a bit, not wanting to offend the king, but he cautiously answered, "Your majesty, I don't understand why you are asking us to. She is a woman."  Sirius allowed the man to sit back down and then called the next man to his feet to answer. He bowed and seeing how the first man wasn't punished for his honesty he boldly answered. "my king, I will never show loyalty to a werewolf woman."  Sirius then called a third. "I agree with them my king, werewolves and women are below us and I will not bow down towards them."  Sirius frowned and before calling another man he asked a follow up question, "what would you think then if my only heir is a werewolf? Or if by her, I bring forth a vampire woman to be my heir? Will you show loyalty to my heirs?"  A few of the nobles became uncomfortable at this but calmed themselves. One man rose to his feet boldly and came forward. "My king if I may speak my opinion, it is very bold of you to assume that we will sit back and allow a werewolf to reign over us. We would allow a woman, that is not nearly as bad, but we would do as we did with Sköll, daughter of Fenrir. We would have her step down as soon as a male heir comes of age. My king, I expect that you would be able to bring forth a male heir, a vampire, if you just chose a different woman to be your queen."  Sirius asked him to take a seat as his doubts were confirmed that these people would be more loyal to their traditions than to him, and equally, that meant they could betray Saoirse, Lachlan, and Sroka one day. "My last question is, what if my queen here is Luna of six werewolf packs, and that gives me command over them as Alpha, would you accept if we form an alliance with her kingdoms? I could quickly put a stop to this war if my marriage to her symbolizes an alliance, and what will you say of your loyalty to her and my heirs then?" The nobles became enraged at the thought. "We will not form an alliance with the werewolves! They have their loyalty to Odin! Loki has sworn revenge on Odin and we exist to bring forth that revenge!" "That will be enough!" Sirius said suddenly. The nobility who had become too comfortable speaking to their king quieted down. "That means your loyalty doesn't lie with me, your king, because you would quickly overthrow me if you didn't agree with my decisions."  "You say you follow Loki above your king because he is a God, but hear this, I am the son of the goddess Hel, and the demigod Alastor; I am not a mere vampire. My path is to ascend and you may follow me or you may follow Loki, but you cannot do both. I will not tolerate betrayal, if you cannot swear loyalty to me above Loki then you may leave, but I will teach you the strength of my power."  "You think you follow the God of chaos? I will be the God of Calamity!" Then he unfurled his Valkyrie wings and with his wind sword, he flew up to the spot above the throne where the beam of light was covered and uncovered it. The people gasped as the concentrated sunlight bathed his skin and he didn't burn.  "Bring me the guards who killed me, I should repay the favor; because of them, I now have the blessing of Odin and sunlight doesn't hurt me. You think Loki is your God, but does he have the power over your soul?" 

It’s not everyday the universe needs saving, and it’s certainly not everyday someone like Ares is tasked to save it. Born with unique ‘destruction’ magic, Ares, a young man bursting with character (despite his propensity to annoy), has his work cut out for him as he, alongside five others with unique magic, must set out to prevent the end of all existence. Will he succeed? Or will his obsession with blowing things up simply speed up the process? Follow along in Ares’ adventures through bizarre worlds rife with magical mayhem, fierce fights, colourful characters, and plenty of perilous plots. This is an arc by arc fantasy romp that you probably won’t want to miss, regardless of whether you’re familiar with cultivation or not. All are welcome to witness Ares, ‘the wandering calamity’ himself, go on this long and exciting journey fraught with chaos… Even if he’s the one responsible for most of it.

Jiang Chen had unexpectedly found himself thrust into a world of cultivation, stepping into the role of a core disciple within a famed sect. Fated to be the villain, his future loomed with calamity. He had plotted against the protagonist, crippling his dantian and leaving him a disgraced outcast teetering on the edge of expulsion. Were it not for an unexpected twist, Jiang Chen's part might have ended as a mere footnote in the protagonist's glorious tale. Fully aware of his precarious position, Jiang Chen's lips curled into a sly grin. Alone, he mused: 'Is the protagonist powerful? Without a doubt.' 'But will I tremble in fear? Absolutely not.' 'Why? Because I have the Immortal Great Villain System!' 'Wait... there’s more than one protagonist?' 'Well, isn’t that just perfect?' With a determined glint in his eyes, Jiang Chen declared to himself, 'As the ultimate Great Villain, I will defy the will of Heaven and seize my place at the summit!'

The moment I saw it, I knew: a calamity had emerged. A threat so immense that it demanded unwavering vigilance. To protect the world, there is only one choice: take control of the pack. But how can I crush the ambitions of an abomination when I am nothing more than a mere human?

Traversed are humans that were crossed over from the real world to a different world, that of magical properties. Traversed possess unnatural magical capabilities, even to those that are native to the world they ended up in. Some are either gifted with great magical and physical prowess while others are said to be cursed with strong abilities with immense drawbacks. Those native to Inferis believe that the Traversed were purposely pulled in from their worlds to this one, for one specific purpose; to act as fuel for a dangerous ritual that would bring about the end of the world. Once every few decades, a Traversed happens to be cursed with a Calamity; a magical attribute that imbues them with immense power capable of deciding the fate of Inferis. Lucian happened to be one of the unfortunate souls that were pulled in as a Traverse and was the unluckiest one to be granted the Calamity of the Dragon. The Dragon Calamity forced him to become one of the most powerful beings in Inferis, but he doesn't know how to control it or channel its true power, and many factions in that world are aware of it. Cursed with such power, Lucian must fight his way to get back to the Soul Gateway, the one-way ticket back to his world.

The MC transmigrates into Narutoverse in the body of a civilian orphan. Luckily for him, the transmigration results in chakra being unlocked. Follow the story of the MC as he grows in power and stabilizes himself into the world of ninjas and trains to be the strongest.  Warning :  1. The MC won't be op for a long time. All his power would be gained via hard work and training over years (so if u want an op mc right from the word go, this one ain't for you) 2. No harem (probably no romance either) 3. There will be a lot of killing (maybe gore too, not sure if I can do gore right though) 4. The story will start slow. Quite a few of initial chapters will be around training, orphanage and academy life, instead of directly becoming a Genin. 5. MC is a careful person, he won't put his life at risk unless there is no other choice. 6. I haven't read (nor will be reading) Baruto. So Baruto plotline won't be considered much in here. What to expect : 1. Smart and consistent MC  2. Lots of training 3. MC manipulating the plot to his advantage 4. A lot of original arcs.  5. Plot will mostly stay the same (at least till Shippuden), but I won't repeat any scenes/dialogues that took place in the manga (as I'm assuming you've already read it). Disclaimer : I don't own Naruto or its characters (except the original characters I create). The image used in the cover isn't mine and belongs to R. J PS : It's my first fanfic, I'm hoping it turns out good. All reviews and constructive criticisms are welcome. Grammar and English should be fine, but I'm not sure how good the dialogues and scenarios will be. Hopefully I'll improve as this fanfic progresses forward.

His lucid green-blue eyes refused to look away from the alluring sight before, feeling a certain stir in his lower insides as his instincts fully triggered. The air around was tainted with the provocating yet intoxicating scent that filled his sensitive nostrils, watching the bright red liquid slowly sip out of the broken skin on her shoulder. He gulped. Gingerly shifting his gaze to the pair of brown doe orbs, Leviathan immediately noticed the hint of mirth in her eyes. Kamyla grinned, "Are you really so desperate to taste it?" Leviathan didn't respond, struggling to resist the strong temptation of the woman lying underneath him; not to mention her lascivious features protruding from her barely clothed body. His fingers dug deeper into the sheet on both sides of her head. He grinned, "How cheap do you think I am?" "Then do it", her eyes glittered with mischief. "Taste it". Leviathan clenched his jaws, preventing his eyes from wandering back to her corrupting blood. Kamyla then let out a chuckle, raising her hand to cover her bleeding injury. His eyes slitted. "Levi..." The severally disapproved nickname rolled off her tongue, causing him to cringe in annoyance. "If you really want my blood so badly..." She slowly wiped the blood on her thumb, bringing it to her lips to lick it off. Leviathan bit his lower lip. "Then you'll have to earn it". • • • In the year 1503, One of the most powerful Empires in central west Africa, the Sah' Jangi Empire, began to experience strange unexplainable disappearances of their citizens in various kingdoms.
