A group of a elite holy warriors wander the land as mercenaries, slaying evil wherever they find it. They are called dervishes, and one of these intrepid warriors is Nicholas Red, a relatively novice dervish that has found little success. However, when the prospect of a lucrative mission catches his eye, he must team up with an alcoholic paladin, a far-too-optimistic witch, and a scrawny slave to complete it and finally hit it big as an adventurer.
This motley crew seems hesitant to work with each other however, despite Nicholas' best efforts. Is this really Nicholas' ticket to hit it big, or just a one way street to an early grave?

The Prison of Deviants
Ever since Theo got infected with the vampire dust, the symptoms of a vampire have taken over her, so she was sent to the Prison of Deviants - a secluded fortress in a remote part of the world, created to keep deviants (humanoid creatures with different blood and superior powers) away from humanity. Together with two other vampires - Yelen and Annabelle - Theo, the former human, begins to live in the prison, as a deviant. Theo tries to keep herself aloof since, as a newly-infected human, she hates deviants, but this attitude doesn't last long: young deviant men are very interested in getting their hands on the newcomer. Derek, a merman, invites her to parties; and Shon, a newly-turned werewolf, becomes her close friend. It grows even more complicated with the appearance of Knut - a mysterious feline hunk whose identity and powers are not quite clear, but who manages to attract Theo with his complex personality. Theo, aware that the inborn deviants will never look at them - the infected humans - as equals, decides to break out of the prison along with her friends. But for that, she'll have to challenge the mysterious and omnipotent warden, whom few have seen, yet all are terrified of. ---- Available on amazon.com at the link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B096HJ21KN ---- Available on the Tales app (as a branching-dialogue multiple choice GAME) at the link: https://link.talescreator.com/k6f5oBryXsbComplete

Shades Of Morality
The rewrite is being uploaded! Check out The Grave Keeper on my page! A strange boy who's adopted family happens to be...well dead. A strange town that's only getting stranger as packs of werewolves arrive. they are only a precursor to what is coming. Mages, and more will soon be arriving in silver-spruce, any of them a potentially life threatening danger to him. But...if the boy keeps his head down and tries to avoid attention, than maybe just maybe, he can survive. Sadly for him, one of those wolves is claiming the part of town he happens to live in as her territory. And the boy has never been particularly good at keeping his head down in the first place. (This is a completed first draft of this story, I will eventually be uploading the second draft which is wildly different, less using the same bones as this first draft, more just a few of its organs. Ie. characters, location, and themes, But only bits and pieces of this drafts plot.)

The Judgement Of Divinity (TMOE #2)
Usually when people die they are courteous enough to stay dead. As it turns out, several people associated with Lucius are lacking in the etiquette department, and when corpses start disappearing from graves it's just no laughing matter anymore. Reunited with more than one friend from his past, Lucius finds himself with more questions for every answer he receives. In his defense, undead vampires and secret, werewolf related orders will do that to you, and yet he is nowhere near figuring out what the Waste is going on beneath the surface of South Kerilia's population. He knows one thing for certain though: One organization holds the answers to all of his questions, and he knows just the person to interrogate. If only that person hadn't been Lucius' newly resurrected numbskull of a crush.Complete
Volatile Gods

Well I met a boy; quiet, naïve but adorable Nathan. Imagine my surprise when we run into Worshipers and instead of tearing us apart they bow to my nice, quiet boyfriend. Not only is Nathan a god, but he turns out to be the leader of the gods, Prince. He decides he wants to "keep" me. I run. I run right into a group of rebels calling themselves Warriors and they think I'm the key to killing the gods. I would call them crazy but they have gods on their side too. Gods who want Prince dead.
