The Trickster’s Hat

“Trick, my most pri—zed gift.” A woman shakily muttered as she tried to evade the grim hands of death just long enough to bid her farewells. “You’re kind, just like your father even. But in all your kindness as your father did, please do not —” The conversation blurred into a cloud of obscurity as Trick found himself rescued from the innards of a monster by a strange Machiavellian man, a trickster of sorts. He is soon made to realize that the life his newfound master leads him into is far from ordinary. For centuries humanity has been plagued with the curse from the void, where void beasts; dreadful man eating monsters have tried to sink humanity deeper and deeper into absolute desolation. However this curse is battled by special kinds of humans known as artifact hunters, Wielders of relics that sometimes seem to possess a celestial origin and great power. One of these celestial artifacts lies in the hands of his master and after being passed down to Trick, he becomes the 10th wielder of the mystical “Trickster’s Hat.” He must now use this new found power to try to do what humanity has failed at for thousands of years, attempt to end the curse of the void. Yet in doing so his life is troubled by a series of conflicts as he embraces the harsh reality, that he too might have vestiges of the dark bloodline of the void. “Trick, you have your own curse to break.” *************** Discord server: https://discord.gg/UFSP4ybz ( Speak with I, your beloved author, get to see some secret habits performed by the characters, along with more.)

Transmigrated into Eroge as the Simp, but I Refuse This Fate

Damien never asked for this life. Confined to a hospital bed, chained by a body that betrayed him, he spent his days battling the cruel joke that was fate. But when a single video game shattered his last shred of patience, he found himself facing something even worse—his own reflection, cast into a story that should have never been his. "Fucking NTR game!" He said as he threw the console. In the game, the player was nothing but a tragic figure. A weak, spineless fool, doomed to be discarded. A character whose sole purpose was to be broken. But was that really all he was? Thrown into a world that scorned him, Damien refuses to play by the script. If fate had already written his downfall, then he would carve his own path—one of defiance, of rage, of survival. Watch as Damien, a man who once had nothing left to lose, fights to take control of a story that was never meant to be his. Because in a world that demands he stay weak—he will either shatter expectations… or burn everything down with him. -------A/N------- The main character, Damien, is heavily inspired by Johnny Silverhand from Cyberpunk 2077.

American Twist

The action takes place in 2119-2120. Since 2113, a protracted nuclear war has been going on between the Asian and Western Blocs. The war was preceded by the "Pre-War" for Indonesia, which began in 2107. The historical period of the Pre-War & War has already formed an entire generation. The "war process", as it is called, has little in common with ideas about a global Armageddon. The economy of the Western Nations is privatized by two superholdings - "constellations", which are parts of a single whole and do not compete. Over the years of the War, the ruling circles of different levels have achieved goals that were not initially set. This is the write-off of the US national debt, which paid for the construction of the global defense of the West, the implicit occupation by the US of its allies, partial privatization of the US itself by constellations. In the Asian Bloc, the picture is similar. Between the Blocks there is a channel for concluding and observing shadow "anti-apocalyptic" agreements - the "seventh headquarters". This is a nuclear-powered superplane-headquarters constantly flying over Antarctica. By the end of the 2110s, a peaceful settlement of the "Only War" is no longer being considered. Instead, the option of "Conversion of the Military Process" is being actively developed - minimizing military actions on the fronts, denuclearizing the War and "pushing" military actions into "high space orbits". The top of the constellations and the billionaire technocrat Bandon the Third in particular are interested in such a scenario. The "converted" War will open up freedom of action to form a new society, industry, morality and the exit of a selected part of humanity to the development of other planets. The moral values of the top of the constellations and Bandon are quite dubious. A certain crisis event, the details of which were determined later, was chosen as the impetus for launching "Conversion" several years earlier. An important element of this scenario is a certain personality - the leader of the rebels who seize a nuclear base, an aircraft carrier, etc. The role of the personality is doubly important due to the fact that the crisis event must develop on display, "in front of the cameras", to the whole world. The question of the motivation of such a personality is complicated by the fact that most candidates for this role will inevitably see such an enterprise as risky and having an outcome that is unpredictable for them. The problem is solved by preparing an agent with a processed consciousness - a fragment of memory and life that contains preparation, moral pumping and technical training for such an agent is hidden, erased. One of these sleeper agents, Andrei Zavirdyaev, lives the life of an ordinary CSCE employee (the old-new name of the OSCE). The crisis event is determined - it must be the hijacking of a new shuttle. Zavirdyaev, who completed his "sleeper agent course" in 2113, regularly undergoes a "technical inspection" - during trips abroad, he is received by secret services, partially "de-mothballed" by his memory, checked and "updated". During the "update" in 2120, he is told that he is to hijack a shuttle. He does not need to control the vehicle and mission - he is a supermedia "monkey with a grenade". The plan starts successfully, the media machine successfully carries out the stages of the program developed by the constellations. Another character is an extraterrestrial life form that looks like a 35-year-old northern European woman. This is Haldoris Landskricht. She is an "avatar" of the mind of a black hole located in one of the arms of the galaxy. Despite all the exoticism, the psychological appearance of her personality is quite human. Living among people, possessing a number of superhuman abilities, she avoids directly and openly influencing the historical process, not wanting to make things worse. Haldoris Landskricht does not agree with the plans of the constellations…

The Next General

"Have you heard of him?" A small boy tugged at a woman's skirt, his tiny finger pointing at the large portrait of a man clad in a minister’s robe. "Shhh! Don’t say its name!" The woman hushed him, glancing around anxiously. She knew the boy was only curious about the drawing, yet the inscription beside it spoke of someone else entirely. Still, the credit had been given to the man in the portrait. "Why?" "We just... don’t say it." "Are you talking about The Next General?" A man dressed as a scholar interjected, inserting himself into the conversation. "Everyone is talking about it. After a hundred years, it has returned. I can't decide whether that fills me with hope or dread." His words were meant to impress, to showcase his knowledge, but the woman only tightened her grip on the boy, scooped him up, and hurried away like a hunted animal sensing danger. The scholar let out a single sharp laugh. "A chaotic rhythm… and marvellously extraordinary times are upon us," he murmured, before turning and walking away. --- Disclaimer This is a work of fiction.

Amerikanischer Twist

Die Handlung spielt in den Jahren 2119–2120. Seit 2113 tobt ein langwieriger Atomkrieg zwischen dem asiatischen und dem westlichen Block. Russland gehört zum westlichen Block. Dem Krieg ging der „Pre-Krieg“-Krieg um Indonesien voraus, der 2107 begann. Die historische Periode des Pre-Krieg-Krieges hat bereits eine ganze Generation geprägt. Der sogenannte „Kriegsprozess“ hat wenig mit Vorstellungen von einem globalen Armageddon gemein. Die Wirtschaft der westlichen Nationen wird von zwei Superholdings – „Konstellationen“ – privatisiert, die Teile eines Ganzen sind und nicht miteinander konkurrieren. Im Laufe der Kriegsjahre haben die herrschenden Kreise verschiedener Ebenen Ziele erreicht, die ursprünglich nicht gesetzt waren. Dies betrifft den Erlass der US-Staatsschulden, die den Aufbau der globalen Verteidigung des Westens finanzierten, die implizite Besetzung ihrer Verbündeten durch die USA und die teilweise Privatisierung der USA selbst durch Konstellationen. Im asiatischen Block bietet sich ein ähnliches Bild. Zwischen den Blöcken gibt es einen Kanal für den Abschluss und die Einhaltung von Schattenabkommen gegen die Apokalypse – das „Siebte Hauptquartier“. Dabei handelt es sich um ein nuklearbetriebenes Superflugzeug-Hauptquartier, das ständig über der Antarktis fliegt. Ende der 2110er Jahre wird eine friedliche Beilegung des „Einzigen Krieges“ nicht mehr in Betracht gezogen. Stattdessen wird die Option einer „Konvertierung des militärischen Prozesses“ aktiv entwickelt – Minimierung militärischer Aktionen an den Fronten, Denuklearisierung des Krieges und Verlagerung militärischer Aktionen in hohe Weltraumumlaufbahnen. Die Spitze der Konstellationen und insbesondere der milliardenschwere Technokrat Bandon der Dritte sind an einem solchen Szenario interessiert. Der „konvertierte“ Krieg eröffnet Handlungsfreiheit für die Bildung einer neuen Gesellschaft, Industrie und Moral sowie den Austritt eines ausgewählten Teils der Menschheit zur Entwicklung anderer Planeten. Die moralischen Werte der Spitze der Konstellationen und Bandons des Dritten sind höchst fragwürdig. Ein Krisenereignis, dessen Details später geklärt wurden, diente als Anstoß für den Start von „Conversion“ einige Jahre zuvor. Die Frage nach der Motivation einer solchen Persönlichkeit wird dadurch erschwert, dass die meisten Kandidaten für diese Rolle ein solches Unternehmen unweigerlich als riskant und mit unvorhersehbarem Ausgang betrachten. Das Krisenereignis steht fest – es muss die Entführung eines neuen Shuttles sein. Zavirdyaev, der 2113 seinen „Schläferagentenkurs“ abgeschlossen hat, unterzieht sich regelmäßig einer technischen Überprüfung. Auf Auslandsreisen wird er von Geheimdiensten empfangen, sein Gedächtnis teilweise entmottet, überprüft und aktualisiert. Bei der Aktualisierung im Jahr 2120 erfährt er, dass er ein Shuttle entführen soll. Als die Zeit für die vollständige Entmottung gekommen ist, wird Zavirdyaev von den relevanten Planbeteiligten abgeholt, zwei Tage lang adaptiert und findet sich im Pilotensitz des Schiffes wieder. Er muss weder Fahrzeug noch Mission steuern – er ist ein Supermedien-„Affe mit Granate“. Der Plan beginnt, die Medienmaschine führt die von den Konstellationen entwickelten Schritte des Programms erfolgreich aus. Eine weitere Figur ist eine außerirdische Lebensform, die wie eine 35-jährige Nordeuropäerin aussieht. Es handelt sich um Haldoris Landskricht. Sie ist ein Avatar des Geistes eines Schwarzen Lochs in einem der Arme der Galaxie. Trotz aller Exotik ist ihre psychologische Erscheinung durchaus menschlich. Da sie unter Menschen lebt und über übermenschliche Fähigkeiten verfügt, vermeidet sie es, den historischen Prozess direkt und offen zu beeinflussen, um ihn nicht zu verschlimmern.

Even Anxious, I’ll Become the Strongest Spiritbound

#DARKFANTASY #FANTASY #SUPERNATURAL #URBANFANTASY In a world where the dead refuse to rest, the living fear what lurks beyond the veil. For centuries, humanity believed all spirits(ghosts) were vengeful, mindless entities seeking destruction. But the truth is far more terrifying—some spirits exist to devour, corrupt, and break the boundaries between life and death. Others, bound by fate, offer unimaginable power to those they deem worthy. Arman never wanted to be a hero. Struggling with social anxiety, he preferred to keep his head down, avoid trouble, and live a life that meant nothing to anyone but himself. But everything changed the day he became bound to a force beyond comprehension. Now, with an ancient spirit entwined with his very soul, he’s dragged into a hidden war waged in the shadows—a battle between those who harness the power of the dead and those who twist it into something monstrous. As ancient forces awaken and the boundaries between the worlds fracture, Arman faces an impossible truth: the power within him is both a gift and a curse, one that could consume him if he fails to control it. With enemies lurking in every shadow and unseen forces pulling the strings, he must uncover the origins of his power, the forgotten secrets of the past, and the role he is destined to play in a war that has raged for centuries. Because if he fails—if he breaks—this war won’t just claim his soul. It will unravel reality itself. A journey of power, fate, and the unseen begins… but can a boy who fears even simple conversations truly rise to become the strongest Spiritbound?
