Detective James Baron became an outlaw after asking the wrong questions. After four years of running on land, he finds a new opportunity in becoming a pirate. The old man at the ship's helm tells tales of a sea of mysteries; the Terminus. Intrigued and left without any other options, James sets out, bringing with him the five people who did not disembark.
  
  On his journey across the ocean, he grows stronger, builds the trust and size of his crew, and discovers that his world is full of magic, chaos, superpowers, monsters, advanced technology, and more. As he endeavours to solve as many mysteries that present themselves, he learns to appreciate the thrill of adventure and the unpredictable nature of life.

The Last Oath: The Decline and Fall by Bob12mob

What happens when narration becomes magic and monsters become stories? When meaning crumbles beneath the whispers of tales, and certainties drown in the din of words, truth wears a thousand faces at the windows of night. Survive. When the untold fades, and the unseen is lost. Endure. As kingdoms fall and life ebbs away, as souls awaken only to cage themselves within the lines of pages. Fight. For what remains is a silent longing to wake again, upon the shores of a dream unborn. ------------------------------------------------------------ A multi-character fantasy tale set in a world that has forgotten how to define itself, where eras chase one another in confusion. Knights confront the unknown, detectives battle dragons, and vampires raise dogs. The stars are wrathful, the kingdoms have fallen, and magic stands stripped bare. ---------------------------------------------------------------- For those who do not like indirect suggestion: A cruel, innovative magic system A dark fantasy that blends classic fantasy, horror, and the supernatural. Long story and slow build (although you can judge it in the second chapter) Multiple characters and a big world Exploiting (inspiration from) myths, epics and legends in worldbuilding Legends from all over the world: Europe, Africa, America, Middle East, Australia, Asia, Ireland etc. Mystery, investigation, and the need to analyze, focus, and use your knowledge and abilities to reach conclusions and form your opinion before the characters do (you are part of the investigation, not just the characters) Warning: "Contains graphic violence" "Not suitable for children"

King Of All by user86878054

She was a princess raised behind stone walls. He was the son of the sea, forged in salt and fire. When Edith, the youngest daughter of Hazelwood's royal family, is taken hostage aboard a pirate ship, she expects cruelty, punishment... or worse. What she doesn't expect is Captain Archer: brooding, guarded, and far more complicated than the villain the crown made him out to be. As days at sea turn into nights of storm and shadow, Edith learns the truth of an ancient war-one that split the world between land and sea and left blood in its wake. But something stirs beneath her skin. Strange dreams, strange power-something old, something forgotten. The ocean calls to her, and someone is listening. With rebellion rising and loyalties shifting, Edith and Archer are bound together by more than fate. And in a world built on secrets, the greatest threat may not be the battles ahead, but the truths buried in their pasts. A slow-burn romantic fantasy full of courtly intrigue, sea-bound legends, and the dangerous magic of what it means to choose your own destiny.

Damsel[ed]: No Rescue Required by HeroBreaker

***FINISHED! AND FULLY UPLOADED*** "Your friend was right," the villain says, tilting her chin towards the moon. My mouth's on autopilot now as I mentally uncurl from the fetal position. "Uh, first, why do you know my friends? Second, about what?" Her eyes light up like jack-o'-lanterns. "You're adorable when you're scared out of your mind." ***Now a Wattpad featured story*** Having superpowers is awesome, unless you're Angelos Fibbs. When a kidnap attempt leaves him with incredible superpowers and a price on his head, this one-liner-loving dork must choose: hurt or be hurt. Supervillain or damsel in distress. He's a lover, not a telekinetic black-leather-wearing killer, and he wants to keep it that way. The fates of his best friends hang in the balance, and if he can't face his biggest fears, he'll become a pawn to a powerful underground whose dark intentions could destroy his city, and possibly, the world. Life just got messy for the clean-freak super. WARNING: Mild swearing, and a 'spit' load of dorky alternatives. Nerdy humor, cliffhangers, plot twists, fights, and a love triangle so complex it's more or less a love blob. May cause spontaneous shipping. Also includes enough Star Wars references to make George Lucas cringe. Read at your own risk. COMPLETE *** Highest ranking #1 in Adventure on July 8, 2016

Warrior's Blood: Level One- Lost then Awakened by ElizarahONeduncan

Gemstones gave superpowers to some, so jealousy gave rise to a rebellion and takeover of the superheroes' home world. Blood rituals, massive casualties, a supervillain army an all-powerful leader.... They sealed that world off and left. However, you can't hide your mess in the closet for too long... Part of the leader escaped. Now it's the future superheroes' problems, they are surely thrilled about that.... The Veil between the worlds is open now everyone who can use magic...can. Family abductions, a giant rampaging a city, arson, singing death flowers, an insurrection, explosions, mass murder, raising the dead. Outsourcing super villains, of course, they would; their army is just too huge. Akili, a fae, enlists the superheroes who have awakened. Sarah- Nerd, chubby, homeschooled... Wait, what do you mean she was raised in a religious cult? Kanye- A young, smart man who was about to graduate high school and join the police force for a promising career.... Why is he being dragged into that abandoned building by that group of men? And Jabbar- A royal in an Egyptian-style world, a reader and an explorer. Aaaannnnd he's being whipped in the marketplace....Never mind, he was saved. Whoa, what are they rubbing all over him? Hey, why is Sarah naked in your palace...Is she in your bed? "How am I going to train these fools to use their powers? These are the ones who will be saving Earth and the other worlds....Keep your hands above the table where I can see them!" Akili says, then looks at her magic orb. "Oh, look, pirates!" Sarah says "Stay away from those!" Kanye exclaims "Does he ever stop staring?" Sarah wonders out loud, looking at Jabbar, who is staring at her, "No," he replies, smiling at her. And to think they will have to live together from now on, I will have so much fun, Akili thinks, watching her magic orb and waiting for keyshards to appear.

Venture to Uncertainty (#1) by tarishannon18

It's a deadly plan, and it goes like this: First, become a crew member of the Avourienne, a pirate ship notorious for its charismatic captain and wicked ways. Second, trick the ship's cunning strategist, famous for winning every game she's ever played, into believing a delicately spun lie. Third, get close enough to their tyrant king to put a knife through him. Deadly doesn't quite describe such a plan. In fact, inconceivable may be the better word. But Archer Kingsley has a knack for such things, and he feels he's going to pull off this plan with the ease he does most everything. Perhaps he's not quite aware of the absolute hell that's about to break loose, but truthfully, it's so much better that way. Because true adventures are born from uncertainty. * Cover by xxsoteria Mature themes you may encounter in this book: - harsh language (it's a pirate book) - violence (it's a pirate book) - sexual implications (it's a PIRATE book) However, this story does not violate any of Wattpad's mature guidelines and therefore is not marked as such.
