Xcom Templar Crossover

Blood & Vapor: A Song Of the West [Steampunk Western]

Wasters. The word spreads like wildfire across the frontier—whispered in saloons, cursed in cathedrals. Born of rogue science and stitched metal, they’re outlaws in the eyes of the Church and monsters in the eyes of the world. Levi Wilson didn’t choose this life. Once a streetwise mercenary, he was captured, experimented on, and turned into something he doesn’t understand. Augmented with prototype Vaporguard tech and left with scars he can’t outrun, Levi escapes into a land already teetering on the edge—where the Church tightens its grip, bounty hunters chase Wasters for coin, and the Old World’s empire watches the New with hungry eyes. Now hunted and alone, Levi must learn to survive—not just the bounty hunters and Inquisition on his trail, but the growing power inside him. What begins as a fight to stay alive will drag him into something far greater: a war for the soul of the frontier, and maybe the world beyond it. **WHAT TO EXPECT** • Guns are outlawed—blades, fists, and augments rule the frontier • Alternate timeline where the Church controls global tech and power • Steam-powered war machines and brutal Inquisitors • Grounded, gritty combat with realistic consequences • Deep worldbuilding with political, cultural, and religious conflict • Third-person limited POV with strong character focus • No chosen ones, no prophecy—just survival • Slow-burn mystery and high-stakes tension • No harem • Earthsong magic with real costs, not flashy spells • Bounty hunters, Templar Knights, orphans, war criminals, and broken survivors

Heavens splitting sword

In a world teetering on the brink of chaos, Orion Yamahiro, the son of a legendary Dragon Slayer and a renounced Oni princess, is born with powers that could change the fate of nations. Blessed—or cursed—with mastery over the six elemental forces of magic, Orion's journey begins in the quiet village of his childhood, where dreams of peace clash with the reality of his extraordinary destiny. Orion’s idyllic life is shattered when remnants of the Continental War resurface, bringing ancient enemies and unspoken truths to his doorstep. As the shadow of war looms, he is thrust into a web of political intrigue, ancient rivalries, and dark prophecies. Guided by the legacy of his parents and a moral compass that refuses to dim, Orion sets out to uncover the mysteries of his lineage and his connection to the world’s fragile balance of power. As he traverses the lands—from the serene forests of Lindle to the icy peaks of the Luminous Kingdom and the vast plains of the Imperium—Orion encounters allies and adversaries, including the enigmatic White Witch of Calamity, a woman tied to his family’s past, and a host of spirits and demons drawn to his burgeoning power. Along the way, he hones his abilities, discovers the cost of wielding such immense power, and faces the harrowing truth about his role in an age-old conflict that threatens to consume the world. Haunted by the weight of his ancestors' choices and the shadows of his own mistakes, Orion must forge his path through a landscape rife with betrayal and sacrifice. As kingdoms vie for control and ancient forces awaken, he becomes the key to either uniting the fractured world or plunging it into an era of despair. With the Demonic Eye’s curse granting him both unimaginable power and a dangerous price to pay, Orion learns that true strength lies not in dominance, but in compassion and understanding. But as his journey brings him closer to the heart of the conflict, he must confront a harrowing choice: to wield his power to save the world or to sacrifice everything to protect those he loves.

Abyss Mage

In the middle of a battlefield, a child is found, the creation of man's love for war. He will have to face many dangers to retrieve his memories and discover the reason for his existence. The only certainty is that true human nature is not good, yet he will face this world as an adventurer and will try to understand this chaotic world in which he appeared. In this novel, the MC is neither good nor bad. At first, he will have a childlike and antisocial mentality, but the surrounding environment will shape him, so his actions are purely natural and are not always the best to be taken. The nature of the MC's powers ends up putting him in certain unexpected situations, and yes, with a slight touch of necromancy, but no systems or such things, the MC will have to become strong by pure training. This is not just a story about getting stronger. There are several characters with broken personalities who are also suffering in this world. The world is in a state of constant war, and there is injustice everywhere. The MC himself also commits part of it. His moral actions change over time and are NOT CONSTANT. Everyone goes through changes during their lives, and the same applies to the MC here. *No harem and almost no romance at all. *English is not my first language. Quick update from the author: I wrote this story many years ago, and a lot has changed since then. Now, after all these years, I’m finally back with a new book called Demon Templar. You can find it on Kindle!"
