darkfantasy fantasy fantasycreatures grimdark highfantasy medieval monster-hunter shinobi steampunk

A southern blademaster known as Inu is sent on a quest to track and assassinate the murderers of his Empire's ruler. Strange lands and people, hardship and trial, plus the odd monster-like fauna of the world create a wonderful and gritty experience for the seasoned shinobi.

Trained in the arts of combat, monster-hunting and tactics, Inu needs to make good use of all his skills in order to survive the eerie northern lands. 

Inu is my attempt to somehow merge philosophy and grimdark fantasy, to explore different faces of the human self, to somehow unveil the gearworks of our minds, while interlacing these inner journeys with a fast-paced, action-packed, sometimes gory narrative. 

Due to the nature of the manuscript (as I aim for around 200k words), I won't upload an entire chapter, but bits of chapters in order to make the reading experience more enjoyable for this wonderful community. 

I have been working at this book for about one year now, and I have been studying creative writing quite thoroughly ever since 2013, and I hope you will enjoy my work!

I'm waiting for your feedback (mostly the negative parts, I really want to know what must be improved).All Rights Reserved

Falling For The Fallen by ShortandDangerous

⚠️ CAUTION: UNDER CONSTRUCTION , CURRENTLY BEING REWRITTEN ⚠️ Copyright © 2015 by imnotshortimfunsized Life is not guaranteed. It's not something we've earned, or deserve. It's a gift that God himself has given us. It's crazy, stupid, and beautiful. But life has quite a nasty lover, death. They are in a constant tango, when one life is taken another one is given. While one family sits at a grave sight watching their loved one return to dust, another watches a beautiful baby's birth. No matter how hard we try, we can never prevent the inevitable. Like it or not, you have an expiration date. We all do. But, is everything in this life as it seems? Why is it that my life is falling apart, but a drug dealer/rapist is getting rich with his toes in the sand? Why am I being hunted? Why am I someone's prey? Why me? Why am I falling for the man that yearns to see the life drain from my body? My death has become a game of some sorts... for both of us. He tries to kill me, he fails, we spend the night together, and in the morning hes gone. To be honest., I would never admit to myself that I fell inlove with my killer... a killer that was very bad at his job... killing. I was #1 on his kill list, and I knew it. But I had always pondered on the question that still remained... If he really did get a good chance to kill me... would he do it? It had always upset me if I had pondered on the question for too long, and to be honest I don't really know why. Afterall he had been trying to kill me for 4 years now, and he still had not succeded. There were still many, many questions that have not been answered... Why is he so strong and fast? Why is he so inhumanly gorgeous? Why hasn't he killed me already? Why does he want to kill me? Does he... like me back? My name is Saphire Williams. And I am falling for the fallen.

The Demons Of Outland by RhaegarDied

This is a fanfiction of the people of Azeroth, their conflicts and adventure. It is released chapter by chapter and is currently a work in progress. This fanfiction takes place in the World of Warcraft universe and mentioned some of the major characters and storyline involved in the video game. Synopsis: "How dare you Durotha!" She observed the horns and the tattered cloth on the elf's eyes. "What is it Amaya? He is clearly a night elf, one of your own." The Captain appeared to be confused. "He's a demon hunter. One of Illidan's ilk. We've captured dozens of them at the apex of Black Temple after the battle concluded." "Demon hunter? I've only heard rumours..." The demon hunter interrupted, "My brothers and sisters. They still live?" He tried to raise his head and asked with a raspy voice. "Silence demon hunter." The strong Earthshaker guarding the priest and his patient commanded. He used his spear to block the demon hunter from getting out of the cot. "Captain Durotha. We must send this demon to the Wardens. Maiev will know what to do with these lots," commanded the Huntress.

Alone in my darkness (English) by Lyl_Ctr

Have you ever felt the weight of betrayal, the bitter sting of a wound, the bitterness of being used, or the humiliation of trampled trust? Have you ever offered your kindness, your attention, to people who never truly deserved it? Have you ever wondered, deep within your soul, what the very reason for your existence in this world might be? If we could glimpse the traps and sufferings that life has in store for us, we might refuse to be born. That is why life, in its cruel and wise irony, deceives us. It hides its darkest truths, forcing us to move forward, unaware of the abyss before us. Today, humanity teeters on a thread as thin as destiny itself, threatened by unknown forces, wild and untamable, ready to drag it into an irretrievable fall. Portals have opened, and creatures from elsewhere, monsters escaped from forgotten nightmares, have emerged. Their presence, a harbinger of total extinction, heralds chaos. Pandora's box has been opened, and these abominations may well mark the beginning of a dark age, where humanity desperately struggles to escape its twilight.

Sorcery Monarch by FALCON-N

Crossing into Netheril, becoming a small lord. Nurturing a Time Whelp, developing arcane magic, and transforming technology. Absorbing populations from various races such as humans, dwarves, elves, halflings, drow, tieflings, and the magicborn, to create a modernized new nation with magical characteristics. Overthrowing the Netheril Empire is the mission! Destroying the Elven Kingdom and the Elven Pantheon is the duty! Eradicating ancient evils and natural disasters is Matthew's shout as he crushes fate! "Brothers and sisters, join Bay Territory! Here, we give out houses, provide free childcare, no worries about food or clothing, assign jobs, and supply all resources needed for life." "Furthermore, we can even offer the path to godhood..." "Everyone only needs to pay a small price of one billion!" A slow-burn farming novel, a new world of dragons and dungeons, a magical version of the Warhammer Empire, and an unprecedented, fresh new version for everyone.

He didn't exactly ask any of this but then again, as an avid gamer of First Person Shooters and Tactical Strategy Games, what is there to describe his situation than becoming an unwilling Avatar of the God of War in an another world... At least there is a bright side to this which is blowing stuff up for fun and a whole lot of other stuff that would make him give in to his awesome fantasies in the arts of going violent and going crazy... Even if both him and said God of War have differing views in warfare, desperation call for desperate measures and regardless of whether he wants to save the world or not, all that he knows is that this... This is gonna be fun... And if it's a dream, he doesn't want to wake up... Inspired by Daveyman05's Saitama in another world? [COMPLETED] CrossPosted to my FanFiction.Net account, TheEschaton...

ASORA: From The Blood Of The Shadows by rinaXhazurina

FORMER TITLE: Élan: A Youngblood World "Beware that you become not the very monster you ought to slay." In a world where magic holds the essence to life, there is still no telling where fate determines your place will be. When the Cardinal Empire of Nyrhaea and its time-forsaken creatures declare war on the human world, an immortal dark entity in the guise of a human, a grieving swordsman, an electric-manipulating technocrat, an unhinged fire-breathing boy, and a magic-less girl whose very existence defies the Laws of Mahika, venture to stop the prophecied, apocalyptic world war. All the while dealing with the complications of entering adulthood. With the grotesque inside him growing hungrier by the day, threatening him of the looming hour to fulfill destiny's bidding to be the key to the end of the world--where death is an impossible remedy to attain--the entity resorts to a mysterious girl who could only be his last hope to achieve freedom from the shackles of fate. An antidote given not without an undefined price. But how long can he endure to bury the roots of the calling past? And what are they willing to risk to liberate a cruel world beyond saving that hangs in the state of trust and sanity? *~* Contains a few depictions of blood, violence, and eldritch elements.

At the Fields of Fire and Blood by crisyah_

The world is dying. Heaven and Hell have broken and collapsed, creating a post-apocalyptic landscape that is part purgatory, part platonic world of ideas, blighted by the horrors of the human mind. The sun lies dormant in the east, atop God's tower, while the west is plunged into darkness and haunted by all that lives there. There is no day and night cycle, nothing grows, nothing dies, nothing changes, unless magic is involved. Angels hunt creatures for their blood, to feed it to God so he can finish gestating. Demons kill and destroy aimlessly, their origins inexplicable and unknown. Stranger beings wander the ruins of what's left of the world. Humans need not eat or sleep, caught in a state between life and death. They cannot die or be born naturally, but they can be killed and they can be made. The few that survived with their sanity somewhat intact have locked themselves into warded cities, but their protections are feeble and often ineffective. The Order that united them is long gone, broken into factions known only by the sins for which they have fallen. The Houses that protected them are crumbling, falling into ruin as their members were culled down by angels and demons, as well as their own mad quest to save the world; the Pilgrimage, a vain attempt to steal into Eden and murder God himself. Soon, only the Scions will remain. Those that were left not due to merit, but because they were the last choice for being heroes. Those whose memories and minds are as damaged and eaten through as their world. Those who agreed to take on the mysterious Archons within their bodies and, through that contract, had ancient relics and rituals passed down to them. They converge onto a long forgotten neutral ground, trying to save themselves. A heroic journey through a nightmarish wonderland. A pilgrimage to God's tower, to make the world whole again. To cleanse the world of the horrors infecting it. To kill the God who will doom them all with his birth.

VIRUS by DELETEDsojoindiscord

«you don't deserve to be fighting. you're slaughtering us all, people who used to be our friends. how does it make you feel, knowing your a monster?» «is that what you think i am? a monster?» «no, clarissa. i am far from a monster. if anything, i'm just a familiar voice whispering in your mind.» «i think we both know that.» --- //Brady Akiyama joined the army for a single reason. To slaughter as many demons as he could to avenge his family. It didn't even matter if they were taken over by a virus or not. He would still kill them. He knew very little about weaponry and training and such, but even he found it odd that a girl who seemed fragile and sweet would have the highest rank in the squad. Maybe there's more to Clarissa than meets the eye.// •grim dark, not a fantasy, but it was more fantasy than horror so we're going with fantasy• •this story is very cluttered, but if you don't mind that, then enjoy!•

Where The Ground Trembles by Usuuro

Corporal Davis thought the Battle of Antietam would be like any other brutal day in the Civil War. With the crack of musket fire and the roar of cannons filling the air, he and his fellow soldiers marched toward what they believed was another bloody but familiar clash. But as they pushed deeper into the heart of the battle, strange things began to happen-the ground trembled beneath their feet, and unnatural figures emerged from the earth. Suddenly, it wasn't just Confederate forces they had to worry about. As Davis tries to make sense of the chaos, he begins to realize something far darker is at play. What they've stepped into is beyond war. The ground trembles beneath them, and soon enough, they'll find out why.

Tales of Undeath: The Von Virtus Chronicles by unholy_sweetrolls

Long ago, in a world not dissimilar from our own, seven powerful mysterious weapons were forged.

Even though he failed to free the blade, he inadvertently woke it. The weapon cursed him, dooming the oldest in his bloodline to hear the its call, enticing them to follow in his footsteps and seek it as he once did. After the man died, the sword's ever increasing cries for freedom latched onto his only son. This is his tragic tale. Completion status: Story has been finished!
