Twenty three year old Jace is anything but average. She not only has a dark past, but she kills and hunts the undead and supernatural for a living. Things were pretty normal, (normal for Jace, anyway) until she's almost killed during her latest mission. She regains consciousness in a mysterious castle, owned by the reclusive, and rather creepy Savlian. Not to mention the devilishly handsome, smart-mouthed Dante, the dark, gorgeous, captivating Deanon, and goofy, funny, lame Kareesus. Soon after arrival, Jace starts having strange accounts of deja vu, and she soon learns of her previous life, one where she's a princess in The Realm of Darkness, a universe parallel to ours. But what happened? Where did things suddenly change? As if unlocking her memories and learning to harness her new-found magical powers wasn't complicated enough, she's somehow managed to get involved with two of the castle's residents. Find out how things turn out for Jace in "Remember"

Kingdom of Scourge and Shadow (The Sightstone Series #1) by callicloudy

The kingdoms of Caedland and Saroviya have been at war for centuries, and a darkness has spread across the Northern Lands. In the east, Saroviya has been crippled by fighting on multiple fronts, while Caedland still reels from the murder of its queen's consort and the disappearance of its princess nearly two decades ago. Now, in the war-torn lands between the two kingdoms, a new threat has emerged, an unnatural disease that specifically targets the witches who fight for both kingdoms. In Caedland, a new draft means that young witch Judith Craven must report to the kingdom's capital to join the New Army and begin her training in the military arts. There, however, she soon discovers that her power is not as it seems-and neither is her heritage. Meanwhile, in Saroviya, the king's personal Healer, Alina Kalinin, finds herself sucked into a dangerous political landscape when she is assigned by the leader of the Order of Mages to create a cure for the mysterious new disease that has appeared on her kingdom's border. Even as Judith grapples with awful power and Alina struggles to understand a disease whose origins she soon comes to suspect aren't natural, a group of criminals in the neutral kingdom of Rijkelund set out to steal a sacred artifact from the Saroviyan embassy. But, as they embark on a seemingly-impossible mission, they soon discover that all is not as it may seem, and both Saroviya and Caedland are playing a very different game than it may seem from the outside.

Dawn Blade [Discontinued / Hiatus] by Izanagimi

A once peaceful world was brought close to extinction and oblivion after a strange event that caused the demon realm to be combined with the mortal realm of the humans. The demons that invaded the world spread about havoc and destruction. The humans, who tried to fight back with their technology, had been defeated. As time passed, the demons becoming the ruling race, humans became docile and mainly went into hiding, with few towns still having human rights or safety. Technology started going backward as none had the chance to advance or evolve their technology, reducing humans to a state of a decayed modern age. The humans live in fear of the demons, seeking only a way out or a way to be safe. However, recently, a group of revolutionaries has started rising underground, forming an army of their own with the goal of destroying the Great Demon Lord. Together with their newly grown special powers and for some even special weapons, they seek to fight against the demons to return their freedom. Find out what will happen in this post-demon-apocalyptic story, the world of Dawn Blade!

A Knights Realm: Forsaken Rise by HollowFire

The history of Tiseria is littered with ferocious battles. Battles, between the many different races, which threatened to engulf the entire realm. Races and creatures have become extinct, or very close to it, but, no war had been as terrible as the Dark Wars. Over a thousand years ago the Cultists of Volkin tried to bring forth their underworld god into the living realm. They almost succeeded. The cult had been defeated by the allied forces of the Four Kingdoms, and by the Covenant of the Magi. Tiseria prospered and there was general peace in the wake of the Dark Wars. Peace which had gone, relatively, unbroken, until now. The armies of darkness are rising once more. After more than a millennia the Cult of Volkin has returned, returned to finish what they had started. The cult is more devastating than ever, equipped with powers bestowed upon them by Volkin himself. They intend to wreck havoc, spread corruption, fear and distraught, through the kingdoms, and raise their Dark God once again. Releasing a corruption upon the physical realm, and causing the various races to become hosts for evil spirits, the Cult of Volkin is demonstrating their power to all. The descendants of the Covenant of the Magi and Knights Order, combined to create the Order of Light, must once again brave the horrors brought forth by Volkin's minions. Two knights have been chosen to undertake the suicidal mission of reuniting the races of Tiseria and retying the bonds of allegiance between them. The fallen, and dishonoured, Knight-Captain, Ryan Quinn, and the proud, and noble, Michael Crow, must traverse the three remaining kingdoms in hopes of uniting the Human, Dwarven and Elven races once more against the terror that is Volkin. With dungeons, dragons, magic and goblins set to cross their paths, can these two knights survive and what else will they encounter?

Echoes Of Equilibrium: War Of The Worlds by BenjacksonTroy

In a world where balance is the key to survival, chaos threatens to tip the scales as a never-ending war between humans and demons stretches on for millennia-a war fueled by ancient animosity between humans and demons. Leor, the Demon Prince and ruler of the demon realms of Valek'thar and Zaron, struggles to break free from the shadow of his father, the Primordial Demon King Aamon, as he tries to protect humans from the demons' wrath and end the war. Guided by an unyielding sense of duty, Leor forms uneasy alliances with demon hunters-Shania and Seraphina, and a guardian god to protect humans from the wrath of demons, and the entire realms from the encroaching darkness of the Devourer-an orb capable of consuming entire worlds with its chaos magic. Meanwhile, Seraphina and Shania, demon hunters of unparalleled skill, navigate their own moral dilemmas as they face beings that blur the line between ally and enemy. Seraphina's quest for knowledge to help end the war leads her to Azarath, Zariel's enigmatic envoy, whose mastery of ancient magic is as intoxicating as it is dangerous. As the fragile peace between realms crumbles and gods are forced to interfere, the group uncovers an ancient, malevolent force pulling the strings behind the chaos-a god who defied the laws of existence itself. The heroes traverse breathtaking and treacherous realms. They face impossible odds, including obsidian-skinned creatures with glowing violet eyes, demons and ancient entities. Each step unravels secrets about the true nature of balance and the sacrifices required to preserve it. Amidst determination, love, and the unrelenting march of war, Leor, Seraphina, Azarath, and Shania must decide whether they are willing to fight to protect the very foundations of existence-or succumb to the chaos that seeks to consume them all in the strength of their unlikely alliance and the eternal struggle to maintain balance in a fractured world.
