"This is The Island, a prison designed for minors like me- too young to be executed, too old to be reformed, and too much of a stain on humanity to let exist. It was 'the answer' to the growing crime rate resulting from a world that was falling apart. The details evade me, but there is one thing I know. The water doesn't seem as scary as it did before." When Jordyn wakes up in the middle of a tropical forest in the mouth of a cat too big to be real, she decides this isn't how she wants to die. The Island has other plans, though. It was designed to kill her, and it will bring out every gun in the arsenal to do so. Her life becomes a game of survival from the mutant and venomous animals, severe temperature changes, and impossible weather scenarios that exist in this government manufactured prison. The twist? She has no idea who she is, where she came from, or why she committed first-degree arson. In this mixture of "The Hunger Games" and "Maze Runner", Jordyn has to unravel the truth before nature kills her- or die not knowing.

A gateway to a long-awaited, always-online virtual island (an 'Autonomous World' or 'Permaworld') has opened for those who've found a key. This includes Dan Harvester, a guy who lives in a run-down apartment with his cat and runs a gaming channel. He's almost done playing and testing VR games, but this one could be his final chance to - truly - level up. What can it promise to him, and all its very first 'pioneers'? 'Fountellion'...is said to be 'natural' game-world, a N.E.P. world (Naturally-Evolving PermaWorld) full of artificial life that mimics the laws of our own natural world, with its shaping force of evolution. The game promises to be more than an open-world survival experience, for there are seven 'Insights' scattered and every player can find their own path to them. How much will Dan be changed, by his own search? A game-within-a-game or a simulated homage to the natural world? A complete vision of a 'metaverse' design which overgrows or salvages addicted players? There is only one way to find out: Tune in and experience Dan's 'avalogs'. For only by completing them and the fragments from the development, may you too discover the vision and legacy of 'Fountellion'... Notes: Please be aware this is speculative sci-fi, and includes outlines for an actual game-world within the story. The project is also decentralised and open source.

Escaping your masters palace and a few bounty hunters to boot, you now have nowhere to go. But your latest hunter has something else in store for you. *Fan Fiction based on the series 'The Mandalorian'*

| Description | Vic, a young man in his early 20s, suddenly finds himself waking up in the crazy fucked up world of Borderlands in a body not his own. He's initially troubled with the situation he awoke to like any normal person would be. However, he doesn't remain in that state for long because of the many opportunities this new chance at life could bring him. The young man could've stayed miserable about the whole scenario he's been placed in, but he decides to make the best of things and embrace the opportunity he was given out of the blue. So armed with a plethora of knowledge about the dangerous world he awoke in, thanks to the many thousands of hours he's poured into the Borderlands series and a system reminiscent of those from the games, he sets out from the bandit tent ready to stake his claim on the world and live life to its fullest. | Additional Information | I don't really care for any of the games beyond the pre-sequel, so anything written story wise after it will be ignored and probably not used. This also includes the telltale games and the upcoming Borderlands 4 game that looks like a carbon copy of 3. This work is only available on Webnovel, Royal Road, Scribble Hub, Wattpad, FanFiction.net, and Fenrir Realm.

He's the best bounty hunter in the parsec and she's his most valuable mission yet... After returning Grogu to the Jedi, Din is alone once again. He takes one last job with the promise of enough credits for him to never have to accept another bounty again. But this job proves to be different from all the rest. She's nameless, no record and no history. The planet Din is required to take her to is a ghost story and she's not offering up any answers. As Din struggles in a war against himself, the bounty takes a turn for the worst, revealing dark secrets at every turn. The further Din goes, the lower his chance of survival becomes.

Din is faced with the startling the realization that the galaxy has never been what he has thought and the chilling question: was the Empire ever truly defeated? Or just waiting in the shadows to rise from the ashes?

(Based on a forum RPG run by a friend of mine) A faraway galaxy suffers under the oppressing and pervasive control of the Elitinati. The secretive, quasi-religious order controls nearly every aspect of the lives of the inhabitants of the planets where their influence is permitted. The city of Eillumaeia holds the nexus of their power. But that is about to change. A time of Retribution has dawned. A savior has come. The flames of resistance burn bright. Allies will unite. Victims will rise and tyrants will fall. Their reign has ended. It is time for The Day of Reckoning.

Mando needs a guide to the Madlands, she needs a ride that can keep her one step ahead of the Ministry. ------ Set after The Mandalorian season two: Searching for his lost Tribe, Mando has followed hints of a trail all the way to the Madlands - a distant and notoriously difficult corner of the galaxy. Between the ever-shifting spatial anomalies and the sector's primary syndicate, he'll need a guide. The information trader that he takes aboard the Razor Crest can certainly help in his search, if they can both stay ahead of the growing trouble she seems to have gotten herself into. ------ Thank you for taking a look at my story - a plot-rich slow-burn with (what I feel are) rewarding pay-offs, plus some fun and adventure along the way! ------ Here's a sample paragraph (spoiler-alert!): "Mando settled back into the pilot's seat while Grey took her spot and dragged a datapad onto her lap. When he looked back a few minutes later, she was fast asleep. He sighed, stood, and came to move the screen out of her limp hands. As he carefully pulled it away, the signet caught his attention. She was still wearing it, perhaps hadn't once taken it off. Her cloak was unclasped, and the pendant sat half on the skin of her sternum, half on the soft fabric of her tank as it swelled over her breasts. Having the metal wrought into the shape of his Mudhorn had probably been a level of detail beyond what the ruse required. But he hadn't wanted to give her someone else's mark, or even something more general. Staring at it as it rose and fell with each of her breaths, Mando felt the surge of an emotion that he knew had no place to go." Notes: • Diverges from in-show plot points beginning with the Book of Boba Fett • Canon-compliant, with one ship-sized exception: the Razor Crest was not destroyed (because, Razor Crest) • Beyond Mando himself, mostly original characters + all original narrative, worlds, etc. • Plot-rich slow-burn • Rating: M - Mild Violence & Smut

Told in gripping first-person, this story thrusts readers into high-octane action and brutal combat, where every decision comes with lethal consequences. With its dark, gritty atmosphere and visceral violence, this tale is not for the faint-hearted, offering a raw, unflinching look at survival in a fractured universe crafted for an adult audience.
