Emblem takes place in an alternate universe where humanity receives powers tied to their core personalities, and where people are allocated to a particular occupation based on the powers they possess. It is a coming-of-age story that chronicles the events of the protagonist Rafniez in her new life as a law enforcer as she faces a society that is freshly wrought with chaos and instability after a nation-wide destabilizing event. This story is intended to be experimental as I find my place as a writer and attempt to use my characters and setting to deliver a story that will hopefully resonate with the readers.

Reader Comments: "I'm gonna gush about your book real quick...all the technology has a purpose and is beautifully explained so I can picture it in my mind...the whole concept of the book is completely original...*moment of silence for your beautiful arch of character development* everything your characters do is strictly them but they develop enough to show more about themselves without you straight up telling the reader about them" -Vairl9023 "Ahh!!!

(Best rating #70) A secret lab sits hidden on an island, where a group of scientists are working on the biggest breakthrough in history. Genetic enhancement. Their test subjects are a group of teen prisoners who have offered freedom after the tests are complete, assuming they survive. The tests succeed and the teens are equipped with strange abilities that make them the most powerful humans on the planet. Things take a turn for the worst when a tragic accident leads to the deaths of most of the scientists. The teens are now mostly by themselves, stuck on an island, with dangers lurking at every corner. Just because they have powers doesn't mean that they're invincible. This is a rough draft and will be rewritten eventually. Cool cover made by @VividlyOrphic
