Festival Contest Ideas

When a game becomes reality, what would you do? Lionel did nothing—well, he tried not to die! Lionel, a recent high school graduate, has zero interest in college despite his father’s constant nagging. His world revolves around modern combat video games—none of that fantasy stuff. But when his friend introduces him to a medieval-themed VR game, Lionel reluctantly gives it a shot. The first login? Boring. Just another repetitive grind through dungeons, looting, and leveling up. Lionel's sure he won’t be playing it again. But when he logs in for the second time, something strange happens: [Do you want to recreate your character? Yes or Yes] With no choice but to proceed, Lionel selects "Yes"—and everything changes. He’s no longer bound by the typical human role the game assigns. Instead, he becomes something unheard of: a dual entity, both human and vampire. Now, in a world of hunters, mythical beasts, dungeons filled with deadly threats, and powerful races, Lionel must navigate this transformed reality where danger lurks around every corner. Armed with the mysterious Crimson Bloodline, a legacy that grants him rare abilities, Lionel quickly realizes he’s far from just another player. While others stay within the game’s rules, he discovers he can bend them—and he’s ready to push his limits. What starts as a fight for survival quickly becomes a chance to rebel. Why follow the game’s path when he can forge his own? With deadly skills, a rebellious streak, and an insatiable curiosity, Lionel is prepared to challenge everything this game—and its creators—throw at him.

Some random stories I come up with to keep my boredom away. Contains original novels and fanfics as well. They may become a novel I'll write if I like them enough or if there is a sudden rush of inspiration that takes over me. If you like one of them comment on it and I may consider writing more about it one day, I am highly sleep deprived so I guess I will someday if i do not commit suicide first.

I only write fanfic ideas just for fun. I don’t think I’ll be writing any of these fanfics as I am a terrible writer, so you can use my ideas if you want.

Zephyr just wanted a peaceful midnight stroll, but who could’ve predicted he’d end up being chased by a ghost truck and a giant spider the size of a bus? After escaping the truck in a park, he finds himself running through a forest, hunted by a monstrous creature, all while trying to wrap his head around the absurdity of it all. But of course, why not add a bit of dark humor while waiting to be eaten? It’s all just too ridiculous, but hey, at least he’ll have a great story to tell if he survives!

I'm not the greatest author, but I plan to consistently update this project, even if I have to write significantly slower than what you typically find on this platform. (My apologies!) Below, you will find some key notes that might be nice to see before becoming invested. PACE: 1 ch/week For now, I plan to write roughly 1 chapter / week. However, this might change in the future as I acclimate to writing more frequently. (Or if this story randomly becomes very successful.) MONEY: At least first 50 ch FREE I know I just mentioned this story becoming "successful", which typically entails paying the author and bla bla bla. BUT! I like the idea of this just being my story with no hooks or lines for a while. I plan to make the greater first chunk of the story free. TRENDS: ~~Overpowered~~ Honestly, I hate the concept of things being "overpowered". It reminds me of the first time I hacked my favorite childhood videogame. (It sucked the fun out of it completely.) That being said, I want this story to involve genuine challenges that take effort or risk to overcome. GENRE: Action, Mystery I would like this story to focus primarily around Action and Mystery. There might be some mild things tossed into the fray like comedy and romance, but don't expect anything too raunchy. DISCORD: -not yet implemented- I may eventually start a discord for this story. It could make a good library for supporting lore or artwork, as well as a place for people to discuss their theories or leave feedback. For now, this discord doesn't yet exist, but I will update you here when/if that changes. OTHER STORIES: Paused A few of you may have known me from my previous stories. I know, you may be pretty bummed that I haven't updated either in a really long time. There were some pretty hefty flaws in those stories that I kind of beat myself up over. (I actually formed this story while trying to restructure the surface world for 'Reincarnated as a Haunted Machine'.) For now, this will be my only work, as the world I live in has become rather complicated in recent years. Perhaps at some point, I will return to my other works, but for the foreseeable future, this story will be my one true love.

In a world where every citizen died and was resurrected with a system that bestowed upon them different races and abilities, society is now divided into two distinct categories: Predators and Preys. Predators are the higher-ranked, evil-generating individuals, feared and respected for their power and malevolence. Preys, on the other hand, generate good, often finding themselves at the mercy of the ruthless Predators. Aiden, a calm, collected, and law-abiding citizen of Canada, lived in this new world as an Incubus—a mild evil-generating system tasked with awakening the deepest lusts in others. Though his life took a dark turn with the world purge, Aiden managed to maintain his moral compass, balancing the demands of his system with his inherent sense of justice. But fate had other plans. After a horrific accident left his body brutally destroyed, Aiden's soul was unexpectedly transferred into the body of a wealthy young conglomerate—one who bore an Extreme Evil System. Suddenly, Aiden found himself in the shoes of a high-ranking Predator, a Demon, a race that transcends all others, a direct descendant of the Devil himself. Now, Aiden must navigate the treacherous world of Predators, wielding the overwhelming power of a Demon while grappling with the moral conflicts of his former life. As he adapts to his new identity, Aiden must decide whether to embrace the darkness within or find a way to survive without losing his soul.
