Here is an epic fantasy story set in my D&D world that I wrote not only for fans of RPGs and fantasy in general, but for all my friends. This story about my character Erion, a young elven warrior; and his many allies and enemies in the kingdom of Briarbeth. In this vast story, you'll meet daring heroes, joy-bringing mages, ruthless orcs and more. This novel has a multitude of inspirations and influences, chief among them being Dungeons and Dragons, The Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit, and The Legend of Zelda. I even take cues from anime such as Little Witch Academia, and favorite video games like Super Mario 64, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and various JRPGs like Chrono Trigger. Look closely, and you may find subtle references to some of the aforementioned franchises at different points in the book :)

    Just a little warning: The story, especially the first couple of chapters, starts off with a several common fantasy tropes and clichΓ©s at first glance (e.g. elves and orcs, an old wizard with a pointy hat and a grey beard, taking treasure from dragon etc.), but it will grow into something a bit more unique as the story progresses. Please forgive my usage of Tolkienesque tropes, as I came up with the concept of the series when I was only fourteen (At the time I was making it in the style of old school fantasy, so what can you expect :p). Even I, as the creator will say it is cliched or stereotypical in some aspects. I only refuse to change them due to spending a lot of time with them during my high school years (And tbh i love elves/dwarves/orcs fantasy). With that aside, I hope that you will love my fantasy universe full of adventure and lore. Now sit back, relax, and embrace yourself for a magical adventure with Erion and his friends!

    Listened to Twilight Force, Stratovarius, Sonata Arctica, Power Quest, and various other power metal bands while I was writing this :)

Countryhumans (GerPol) by Kitsunoli
13 parts Ongoing Mature
This is a story that will mostly be centered around the human part of countryhumans, as you could already tell from the title. And I am "proud" to be able to present to you dear reader, this abomination of a kind. Of course with an extra package drama (just how you like it. ;) Am I right?) I also wanna give a few warnings before you start reading (Including a CRINGE- warning, for all of you who stumbled so far away from thier original track, they lost themselves so much they somehow landed here. My deepest apologies to all of you who now are stuck with part of thier memory being wasted on reading this, forced to live with it for all eternity.😬). For everyone else, who's grey brain matter has already been rotted over by shitposts and Countryhumans bullshits, here's the coup de grace you have all been waiting for (more or less). But before that, here are the Warnings⚠️: -There are gone be some sensitive topics, like:(generational-) Trauma; Mental-; Sexual-; Domestic- and physical violence; DID,PTSD(and other mental illnesses/disorders); Addictions ;Politics ; Philosophy; War and History; Discrimination ; different world views ; description of violence and injury and little smud. -The writing may have grammatical errors or/and be hard to understand at times. Since it's written in thirdperson some times, but in a way that it's personalized for different characters.(It's like the narrator switches personalities, depending on who he's talking about). -I also wanna make clear that this isn't gonna be the creme de la creme, since English isn't my first language and I am still 13. And also that of course I am not an expert in any topic so not everything is accurate especially not the political stuff. I also gave the countrys stuff/personality traits that aren't directly inspired by the fact that they are countrys. So don't take everything so seriously >:) . Now read my story! GOTT VERDAMMT!

Love Him or Hate Him (Herobrine X Reader) by TheOddGroup-o-Gamers
87 parts Complete
You are taken from home by Herobrine, except now you have control over whether you love him or hate him. We all seek adventure, both in our lives and outside. That is why we escape to the fantasy world of Minecraft. That is why we endorse ourselves in a book. But we all wish for something a little more than just some guided quest where the world is unable to be explored on your own and really be your own adventure. We all wish for something at least a little closer to reality. Well, my dear readers, what if I told you that this dream was not only achievable, but also done? Strap yourself in, because in a story like this, where you make the choices, its going to be a rollercoaster of a ride. :) (CYOAS = Choose Your Own Adventure Story) (I would suggest ages 15 - 25) (So far, this CYOAS has: 10+ different endings) - - - Comments include: - - - "I just wanted to let you know that I loved this story, everything was perfect and so original, thank u for that :)" -FacelessMoon5 "Your story is absolutely amazing so it's only fair it has that many and even more reads." -VanaTheDevilishAngel ---------- Major character death No lemon Some chapters may contain gore ---------- ((( #43 in "car"!! Wow, this story must really SlAp! XD )))
A Tale of Fortunes Cross by CatFish21sm
31 parts Complete
This is the story of Karaan a young magic-less merchant, in a world filled with magic and magical creatures. It was party inspired by "Spice and Wolf" But is by no means a "fan-fic". Karaans adventures takes him throughout a wonderful, enormous continent filled with wonderful creatures. It's also the story of a young girl who lived a sheltered life, the daughter of a famous general, until she was sold into slavery in-order to pay off her fathers gambling debt. These two travel together and each experience the world in their own ways. The story is written from a third person perspective. This is the first full length novel type story I've written. (Well full length is a little exagerative, after a little research it's actually about the length of two and a half to three full novels.) A warning the beginning is ok (grammar wise) but after about the first chapter my grammar sucks, I never refined the rest and have no immediate plans to. This story was written for myself I'm just sharing with anyone that might be interested. If bad grammar offends you or you do not like it then feel free to skip this one. This is one of my more family appropriate stories but I will still say, be warned. The story does contain controversial material, and content that might not be suitable for all audiences, read at your own discretion. Most importantly, enjoy. My purpose for posting this is for others enjoyment, if you stop enjoying the story then stop reading. I wrote this for myself, as a form of self expression, I'm not looking for critiques. Feel free to share opinions, but do not be offended if they are ignored. f

Completed! "A tale as old as time, Beauty and the Beast~" Rain's family have been taken from her. She snuck into Mordor to find them but in a twisted turn of events, she ends up befriending an Uruk-hai captain with an identity crisis. In return for her help, the Orc promises to spare the girl's life. Soon they meet an old war veteran who can help them get to their destination. Everything seems to be going wrong, betrayal, sickness, injuries... Will these three friends be able to push through the punches life in Middle Earth throws at them? Or will they end up falling apart? And what happens when the Orc, Bogwater, finds himself falling for Rain? *Title has been updated to be more self-explanatory. However, nothing in the story has changed. -DISCLAIMERS: NEW READERS READ BEFORE CONTINUING- β€’Scenes of Violence, Action, and some Language. β€’ I do not own Middle Earth or the characters specifically created by Tolkien, all I own is Rain, Bogwater, Havish, and the plot to this story. β€’This story has many twists and turns, please don't freak out on me if something you don't particularly like happens. β€’This has absolutely NOTHING to do with the Lord of the Rings/Hobbit plot. This is an all original plot using my own characters that just happen to run into Gollum, Gandalf, and some others, including Elrond. This is DOES not tie into the novels/films in anyway. β€’ I do not own any of the songs or pictures used to give depth to the story. β€’ A story about self-acceptance and friendship.

Some people write for fun, and some do it because it bring fortune to them and their are some who do it because they don't know how to express their thoughts so they spill it in pages. I belong to the last category. Hi everyone this is honey and this is my first book. It's a complicated love story where two people fall in love with each other and at last because of a misunderstanding they went apart. This story has everything involved, it will make you laugh, cry and remind you of someone special. It is a story of small town girl named Jennie whose only dream was to make her family proud of her. Jennie is a daughter of the small business owner MR. ANDREW STEWART and his wife MARTHA. She got facial expression like her dad (fair complexion, black hair, brown eyes) but her height was just 5.2, and she is very much close to his brother graham. But as she was having a small height and a baby face, people usually mistaken her as a college student perhaps she was working in a well-known organization in LA itself. This story is a story of Jennie and Harry, who became friends then best friends and again stranger. So is this the end of their story or god has some different plan. Both Harry and Jennie were poles apart, if Harry says left Jennie goes to right, he was tall with the height of 6 ft. and Jennie was short, he was more of a practical kind of guy and she was very emotional, he loves to drink and smoke and she has never touch it, he got angry on small things but she don't, but with the time they became inseparable. So what made them to hate each other? Join their life journey and revive your own love story. Ignore the grammatical mistake and enjoy the story. Give your valuable comments and support.

The army of good had defeated the powers of evil, however darkness doesn't truly die.... Now thousands of years later that evil has returned to finish what it started all those years ago.

A place abundant with magic and full of different races such as Elves, Dwarves, Orcs, Witches and Wizards. I've taking inspiration from some of my favorite well known sources to bring this story to life. Some of them include The Lord of the Rings, The Witcher, Eragon and even Harry Potter. If you enjoy epic fantasy stories then I think you'll enjoy my story The Chronicles of Arnora: The Curse of the Blood Moon.

Before I started publishing my story on Wattpad I've had several people read it and they've told me it was good and they enjoyed reading it and I hope you all enjoy it as well. I've always been told I have a very active and creative imagination and I should use that i it a like and follow for more chapters to come. Please feel free to point out any grammatical errors you find that I may have missed as I'm constantly editing the story to make it better. *If any names in my story are that of real world people it's completely coincidental, I use a random name generator, which creates countless names, to help with the naming of some of my characters.
A RANGER IS BORN by Eshl1111
11 parts Complete
First off, this story was not written by me. I am posting it for a friend of mine, with permission of course. This took place in a Dungeons & Dragons game over 30 years ago. It is a about how one of the player characters got his start; Crentar Bronn. He is a human ranger of 1st level in this story. This is important to note, because it'll bring more perspective as you read the story. I was the DM (Dungeon Master) for this game. At the time, we were still in high school, which of course, gives away our age. lol I decided to have each character do it solo before they actually met up with each other. A teaser so-to-speak. Eventually, there was five player characters in the game. My friend who ran Crentar Bronn remembers this whole solo adventure to this very day in great detail. A few years after the game is when he wrote this story. We were recently reminiscing about 'old times' and he told me that he actually wrote it out as a story. He was then able to find it on an old hard drive & then sent it to me. I was very surprised at how good this is & how great his memory was from that adventure. I'm flattered that he was so inspired by it, that he turned it into a story! I hope you enjoy this early adventure of Crentar Bronn as much as we did. Perhaps, with enough comments & likes, he'll be inspired to write more chapters. THX
