The phrase 'alter ego' has always been used carelessly. Imagine living your life as half of a whole. Enter a city nestled within the tapestry of Los Angeles-and welcome to chaos, to tricks and thrills, to lies buried under a darkening sky. Welcome to Alter. 
Alters have always passed in and out of Eden, a city hidden within the normal world, that was once a haven created for them to live their lives. Now a place of anarchy, join Jocelyn, Hall, James, and Rico on their journey through Eden as their stories intertwine.
ALTER is a story meant to explore the rules and boundaries of what we assume alter egos can do, but most importantly: what place would they take if they lived in today's world? Or perhaps, hiding in the shadows, are they already here?

DESCENDENT [2.2] by Ambire

In a city torn apart by sectarian conflict, Hidayat stands out--a living contradiction, a soul that refuses to die. With every breath, he bends the rules of reality, blurring the line between what's possible and impossible. Haunted by the idea of his own destruction, Hidayat seeks not just survival, but a way to exist without destroying the world he yearns to belong to. His rebellion catches the attention of Yocha, the mysterious god of Unreality. Ensnared in a web of manipulation, Hidayat's life becomes a cosmic liability, his death the only solution to stop the chaos he brings. As Yocha manoeuvres through the complex politics of a world teetering on the brink of war, Hidayat's destiny grows dangerously entwined with her deadly plans. In this battle for control, reality itself is fragile, and the fate of existence hangs in the balance. [ Fifth Draft ] [ Word count: 90k ]

Phantom; Blessed by the devil, Cursed by the gods by Jays_Novels

Lucifer chuckled, hiding his earlier annoyance in a heartbeat. "You've grown so much" he said. "I'm sorry I haven't come to see you sooner, it's very hard to leave a place you've been confined to for eternity, but I've made sure my demons watched over you, you've become quite the Phantom" Phantom. The ghost is here. "What did you call me?" Sal asked. "That's right I nearly forgot, you have no idea who you are, much less what you are, and so you consider yourself to be nothing awaymore than what others tell you to be" said Lucifer. "But don't worry, I'm here to change that, I keep my promises Salome, well sometimes that is" ................ Sal was many things. A weirdo yes. A dealer absolutely. A warrior? Definitely not. But all that changes when the Elder's Court, a combination of gods, angels and demons, asks him to go on a hunt, to find and kill a necromancer whose plans might cause a rip in the fabric of reality. Sal agrees and though he is powerful he needs the help of five Shaded beings from the Other World to help him. Little does he know that this one task has the potential to birth many things. Love leads to loss, loss leads to pain and pain leads to regret. Will he be able to complete his task? Will he die before he gets his chance? What sacrifices would he have to make? And what did it truly mean to be a Phantom?
