Scorched Earth 🦹 [ONC 2024]
[ONC 2024 Longlisted] Marek has worked for the Society of Powereds in Service of Community (SOPISOC) for as long as he can remember. He's got a great superhero team, his best friends, fighting supervillains by his side. But there is one supervillain he just can't bring himself to fight anymore-the love of his life, Varen. Unable to handle things as they are anymore, Marek decides to escape from the SOPISOC HQ and run away with his lover and join him in his life of crime. Being a superhero was getting boring anyways. As it turns out, though, his choice is the right one for more than one reason when they are faced with a high level conspiracy in need of untangling. The heroic organization's leadership might not be so heroic itself, and it's up to Marek and Varen to save the day.Complete

So the highest sorcerers and elites opened a permanent bridge to another world, known as the great Summoning, and brought with it, champions from an unknown dimension, blessed with incredible powers.

𝐁𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐃
Since the dawn of time, humanity has been divided over various subjects. All of which are frankly, incredibly trivial. This being, but is not limited to race, religion, beauty, size, wealth, politics, and more. The heavy amounts of bickering and debating over these subjects, going as far as starting wars and in-fighting within families, even breaking some apart. This is further proven by the sudden appearance of enhanced individuals nicknamed "Blights," which single-handedly explains the general consensus about them. Hated and oppressed, Blights have had their backs against the wall for decades. Teenager Liam Wang must learn how to juggle both his civilian life and the life of his super-powered, crime-fighting persona "Narukami" and all that comes with it. Oh, and also a super-powered serial killer running around the city, murdering whoever they see fit. Yeah, he's probably screwed.Complete
Hero Stalker
Twenty-two-year-old Gloria Dodson has a weird hobby: stalking Centurions, the superheroes who protect her home city. Then she gets a chance to join them. A stalk gone wrong gives her powers of her own. But Slasher, a veteran Centurion, thinks Gloria's far too naïve to join the team. He proposes a test: if Gloria can't catch Harpy, a mass-murdering psychopath, in two weeks, she'll have to hang up her cape for good. Gloria assumes Slasher wants her to handcuff Harpy and hand him off to the police. Turns out, Slasher's dropped his share of dead criminals in the harbor, a revelation that nearly convinces Gloria to quit the team. But when Harpy kills a man in front of her, she realizes it's her responsibility to stop him . . . either by taking Slasher's lethal advice, or using her stalking skills to do things her own way. I'll be adding new parts on Tuesday and Saturday!Complete

The Life of a Villain
Aren't you ever tired of the same old super hero story? The hero is cool looking with bulging muscles, and always wins. Like, always. Even if the situation is dire and it all seems lost. All the sudden, freaking deus ex machina. And the villain is either some super nerd, or a loser. Do you have any idea how stereotypical that is? Hero=jock/bully. Villain=nerd/loser. But not this time. This is a new story. The Life of a Villain. Part 1: This is a story about Leonardo Sutton a.k.a Knifeslinger, an 18 year old villain out for revenge for his family's death. He goes undercover at Ravenswood Academy where he meets new friends and old friends, and an evil plot that could shake the world. Part 2: Life was finally starting to settle down(ish) in the few days of freedom, but of course normality can't be something for ex-villain Leonardo Sutton. When an alien invasion is imminent, Leo must be Knifeslinger again, and work with Team Amazing to stop the Disastrous Nuclear Anthropoid and his planet of people. #1 in #supervillain 7/5/2020Complete
