The Old Gods have been dead for centuries, and few remember the great empires that once united the continents with a magic ingrained in the soul of the earth. For two hundred years, Spiritas has been absent from the world. 

Until the seventh month of the seventh day in the two hundredth year. 
A new emperor has risen, and on the tides of his army he brings a new god. 

There is a girl that wishes for more than her insignificant life. 
There is a bastard that never cared for power. 
There is a monster that gave himself to smoke and shadows. 
An age old war will begin again, placing the very fate of the world at stake.

The Reaper King by JustAnoth3rG0d
12 parts Ongoing Mature
The illusion of life and the desire for power often cloud us. They change our views, bias our hearts, justify our wars. But even though power demands payment, will that stop you from fighting for your dreams? In a universe where gods run rampant, mages decide the flow of history, and eldritch horrors hide in the darkest crevices of creation. Power and the right to command it and its consequences is earned, bled for, died for. Does the fire of hope shine bright, or does it burn black? Where evil boasts its name aloud and good slinks away wretchedly in the shadows, will you bend your knee? Or will you ascend and join the mighty legends? What is a king to a god? What is a god, to a non-believer?

They are the Divinus, Zoans, Elvens, Humans, and Daemons. A thousand years ago, the gods, or the Divinus, were the most powerful beings to ever exist.

Those who were cast out by their fellow gods turned into Daemons. And they became the fiend in the eyes of the supreme beings. Vowing to destroy everything the Divinus created, Daemons waged a never-ending war against the gods. Caught between their fury, the Humans, Elvens, and Zoans... ...Along with many other races, were trampled in the middle ground. Leading to a stain in their faith and moralities. Then comes the twist from fate... For unknown reasons, the gods suddenly vanished. Along with some of their sworn enemies, the daemons. Those who remained on Earth were left with a void to fill. And ever since the godless age began, humanity raced to the top - in hopes of replacing the gods they once worshipped. Now, a thousand years later... The current era is at peace.

NEVER SPLIT THE PARTY: The Adventures of the Creeping Bam (BOOK 1: The Job) by BrenGrigori
31 parts Complete Mature
TAO is a broken world held together with nothing but magic and the will of the gods who protect it and its people. Ten thousand years ago THE SUNDERING struck and Tao was almost torn apart by a terrible magical cataclysm which resulted in the planet almost being halted in its journey through the cosmos. It took all the power the gods of Tao could muster to restore its orbit and set it turning again, but in their efforts it was forever changed - its axis was drastically altered, and it now spins in such a way that one face of the world is forever turned from the sun it orbits, leaving half the planet in perpetual darkness. The various humanoid races that survived and now thrive within the habitable parts of THE DAY LANDS have come to live in perpetual fear of what lives beyond THE BORDERLANDS that separate them from whatever dwells within THE NIGHT LANDS, but for ten millennia it has kept its secrets. The land of RUNDAO languishes under the rule of their warlike Northern neighbours, the TEKTEHRAN EMPIRE, while a small, ragtag band of motley adventurers ply their mercenary trade fighting monsters and protecting the common man from the various dangers that haunt the night and prowl the hinterlands on the edges of civilization. THE CREEPING BAM have amassed a modest reputation in their years together, but they're still just a small-time party of sellswords, thieves, outcasts and mages. They're also exactly the kind of underdogs the people of Tao doesn't yet realise are needed to save the world from the encroaching darkness they doesn't even know is coming ... IMPORTANT: Please note this story includes content that may be considered mature, such as moderate battle violence, some strong language and occasional mild sexual scenes.
