Jasper Toledo is a college student who died and was reincarnated into his favorite video game. Calloway Calphius is an elf hero turned deity after he dissappeared from the City of Perils for 250 years. After 250 years an upstart guildmaster named Cal is instrumental in turning the City of Perils into the new Kingdom of Calphian.  All three of these are the same man.

Shayley O'heira Van Dravenkin is the warrior princess of the City of Perils.  She developed the guild fortress known as the City of Perils into the Utopian City-state, known simply as the Pearly City, while waiting 250 for the return of her Fiance Calloway Calphius. With the aid of the Guildmaster Cal, she was able to reunite with the man she loved and grow the Pearly City into the Kingdom of Calphian. 

Ophelia is the cursed child of the Pearly City. She was orphaned and lost all hope for the future since she can only foresee bad things. A curious elf named Cal saved her from the streets and from herself. After her adoption she discovers that she is not cursed, she is an Oracle and becomes the mascot of the her Papa's new establishment an Adventurer's guild... and its attached maid cafe. 

Seamus is an Assassin turned Cabin boy and becomes apprenticed to Guildmaster Cal. But can the stiff teenager withstand the onslaught of teasing from his new master long enough to become a decent... whatever his master is training him to be?

Join our cast in the the second installment of the Pearly Tales saga as they prepare for war, fight shadows, deal with relationships, beat the crap out of doors, and shape the new world with the power of friendship... 

...okay I lied it's through piracy...
...and hijinks... 
...and pirate hijinks. 

Good luck, and let me be the first to Welcome you into Calphian the Kingdom of Perils.

Just as a note, this is the second volume in the Pearly Tales series. You can just pick this up and have a good time, but you'll miss a lot if you skip the first volume.

"No Life 'Til Leather" by NUmaker
28 parts Ongoing
Sometimes shit happens. Hey, it's not always your day, it's alright. One moment you're riding high, soaring above these mud-riddled plains with the king of mercs by your side, another, you're running far away from the crater he blew himself up in. You've really outdone yourself this time. W's dead, there's angel blood on your fingers and something itches to grow out of your skull. To pierce those gray curls of yours and bask in the twin moon's soft gaze. Something brewing deep within, eager to dim that halo forever and shatter your wings. A piece of you that's always been there, always hiding and growling, waiting for its moment to shine. So, hit the lights, Andy. Give it some stage time. Let yourself live a little. Throw out that Lateran jacket, put on some leather. Grow a pair of horns, befriend a fiend. Forget Laterano, forget Lungmen. Kazdel is your new home. And your new home's where you rightfully belong, you little rascal. Hellooooo people !! Here we are, a SPIN-OFF story of my "Curly Head" series, in which Andy actually went on that one job he previously ditched and got himself into quite a predicament. In this one, I'll turn the angst-meter down, I promise. W and Andy, happy times. :D This is, of course, perfectly fine as a standalone work, I think, but if you're new and wanna brush up on the lore then you can do just that! Series starts with "Goodbye Curly Head", rest is pretty straightforward. Summed up: thirteen year old boy from Laterano ships himself off to fight in the Kazdel Civil War for peacekeeping reasons, situation turns to shit at the end of his tour, forced to stay in Kazdel and make money as a merc, meets up the first W's crew at the age of sixteen, circus-slapstick follows. Ps: I'm not giving up on "Almost Green", only taking a small break and also delivering some much needed fluff-ish stuff. Tell me you thoughts in the comments, I tend to reply to every single one of them and love reading through them all! Have fun!

"Almost Green" by NUmaker
34 parts Complete
Strands of your mind cling together like web to a slippery leaf bathed in the morning dew. You have seen both heaven and hell, witnessed the atrocities of war firsthand, and imagined a better life in the deepest, most intimate corners of your dreaming spirit. The wishes for peace and certainty you have once so desperately longed for, now lay trampled underneath the might of your mind's vivid horrors. What was once so bright and lively, now cowers in fear, clinging to gone memories like a shipwreck survivor to some lowly piece of driftwood. From the depths of hell, you arrived victorious, grasping the laurel wreath high above your head. Unrecognizable, with your empty eyes telling a story of innocence brutally taken away from the child curling in shame in the depths of your empty soul. Almost green you are, curly head, having grown up with a rifle by your bedside table, never knowing peace and quiet. Out of the pan that was the Kazdel Civil War and into the scorching flames of Lungmen, where life flows by on its own accord, here, you must learn to live once more. So put on your best facade, Let the reuniting trumpets ring a wild, And allow the city to swallow you whole. Here we are, a continuation of my previous work "Goodbye Curly Head", which sprawled into quite the epistle (but it wasn't really a letter, it's just long :P). Summarized in the most basic way possible, it's a story about a twenty-year-old Kazdel Civil War veteran who goes to Lungmen and has some troubles acclimating to the steady life presented before him. Sprinkle in a too-good-to-be-true offer and a freshly established logistics company, and you get Andy trying to make it big for as long as his deteriorating mental state lets him. I'd say it works as a standalone story for anyone who doesn't want to bother reading the first part. For now, at least. As always, please, pwwease leave a comment, positive, negative, I LOOOVE reading and replying to comments!!
The Evil ~ YouTuber Fanfiction ~ (Book 1 of the Arcane Powers) by PhoenixWritesFics
51 parts Complete
THE ARCANE POWERS; BOOK 1 -- disclaimer: characters do not belong to me i wrote this as a prepubescent teenager please don't judge me -- The Evil is rising. Every decade, seven teenagers are chosen to fight the Evil. The Seven are given powers that men can only dream of. But, because of the Arcane Seven (the heroes chosen before these), the Kingdom of Magic has turned against the Seven. The Lord himself declared that anyone who is discovered to be part of the Seven is to be killed on sight. The Evil has a new member. And she is the reason why the Seven is to be killed on sight. She is the Seven of Hate. But the Evil also has seven new opponents. And they are willing to take them down. No matter what it takes, they will persevere and end the Evil's reign of terror once and for all. Join the Seven Heroes as they battle new foes, meet new friends, and find new love. -- Credit to @FizzySoda_ 's book 'Sevens.' -- I apologize in advance for making this specific YouTuber the villain. I do not hate her, in fact, she is one of my favorite YouTubers ever! I just thought that she deserved the chance to be the villain of the story. After all, the villain is the one who makes a story, a story. What would Percy Jackson be about if Kronos never rose to destroy Olympus? Think about it that way. Still, I love you and this YouTuber! -- Highest Rank: #198 in Fanfiction -- All rights reserved. I do not own these characters. They are people in real life with YouTube channels. I only own the storyline and setting.

Her Majesty // Mikaelson by Lucifurteeth
42 parts Complete
The Quarter is quiet. Marcellus controls the vampires. The wolves live like outcasts in the Bayou. The Witches have a rocky peace with the vampires. The Mikaelsons raise Hope in their family home. All is peaceful, quiet despite the minor disputes. However the newest Scottish visitors have a long history that they plan on bringing to town. --- "They don't like the idea of new vampires in New Orleans." He reports shamefully, holding his head downwards. The butler seemed as though fearing for his life. I hold the lavender ball gown up to my chest, looking at myself in the floor length mirror. "On the contrary, dear Joseph," I pause, listening as my sweet Scottish accented voice floats around the room in tranquility​. I turn to him, my ice eyes resting on him. "We are very, very old vampires." I drop the dress, and the butler looks up in fear. My movements are as fast as a striking snake, tearing out his throat in such a swift movement there's barely any mess. I look into his eyes as he raises his hands to his neck, falling to the ground in a light thump. I walk back and pick up the lavender dress, admiring my smiling reflection in the mirror as the tragically human butler bleeds out onto the expensive Russian rug. --- Some plot lines and moments of the Originals has been altered for this story. Camille is human (alive). Marcel is not a super vamp. However, Hope is seven years old. I only own the events and Characters I design, the rest all belong to the CW and the wonderful writers. Edit:: The Title has been changed from Casket Crowns to Her Majesty The reasoning is that the characters designed in this story are being used in a series of novels that will NOT be fan fictions. If you're interested in Merida and her brothers furthermore, stay tuned for the actual Fiction/Fantasy book I'll publish on my profile. August 10, 2020 UPDATE: This story is old, I started it several years ago and therefore has many flaws. Read at your own risk.

************************************************************************************** An outcast rogue must break a curse put on his fate, or die on his nineteenth birthday. To survive, he'll need the sword of a maiden, the aid of an immortal, and the power of forbidden magic that could cost him the only girl he ever loved. ************************************************************************************ *** THE JACK OF SOULS won a Silver IPPY this year! *** THE JACK OF SOULS won 1st place in the PNWA Competition in Fantasy! * *** THE JACK OF SOULS won 1st place in the Southwest Writers competition! * *** A "Featured Book" on Wattpad! * *** Now a "Staff Pick" on Kickstarter! * *** Available on Amazon in paper, hardback, and ebook ! * *** My contract with Kindle Select won't allow me to post more than 3 chapters here, but... *** Sign up for my newsletter on stephenmerlino.com for alerts when it's free on Amazon! * MY INSPIRATION I wrote this out of pure love of trickster rogues; I love the wit over brawn motif -- Odysseus over Achilles, Raven over Eagle -- so I like to play with it in my stories. In JOS I set the rogue and con-artist Harric against a foil of warriors in a land threatened by magic and civil war. Whenever possible I turn familiar tropes on their heads: instead of a handsome young Lancelot, I cast a broken-down ex-champion addicted to pain-killing herbs; instead of a dashing Squire Brian, the old knight reluctantly takes an ambitious young woman as squire. Similarly, I re-imagine the standard medieval milieu by infusing aspects of two of my favorite historical periods, Elizabethan England, and The American Frontier. Both eras boast a kind of nationalistic arrogance that borders on hubris, and a magnificent spirit of resourcefulness and re-invention that is fun to play with. SERIES The Jack of Souls is first in a series. I am posting parts of the sequel here now (The Knave of Souls), to help me refine the story.
