avaror comics epic fantasy magic power science-fantasy shared storytelling universe vigilante

A surgeon cannot heal without first cutting away the rotten flesh.

Two young men, Zenji and Kurinai, one an outcast and the other an heir, seek to reform their nation within its own ashes of gilded glory and heinous honor to bring about real peace, not a shallow covering over the festering boils of corruption in Tokeyama, Capital city of Control. 

Their rebellion requires unveiling the horror of the underground, vigilante justice revealing the darkness below. But the murk's roots run deep and refuse to budge so easily. A great strength is needed to smash the filth back into the depths. 

However, that same strength sends waves, and cracks that go deeper and deeper which perhaps will save not only their nation but the others on the continent as well. 

Or it may destroy them instead...All Rights Reserved

Heros Can Be Monsters Too by PresidentThanos

Izuku Midoriya was born with a great quirk, well that's what his mother always said. Though he knew the truth, he knew why there were always heros around when he went outside, people were afraid of him and his power, and he couldn't blame them. He would be scared too if a child had the amount of power he had. He was awoken one night by the sound of his window opening and someone entering, before he could jolt up or scream a gun barrel was put to his head. Behind it he could see eyes, eyes of a hero, eyes of someone who didn't want to be there. Just before he was sure he was about to be killed, she put her barrel away and collapsed to the ground in tears. Both of them monsters in their own right, both seeking to help others, both helping each other along the way. I own nothing but the story. As usual, One For All will be going to someone different.

A Certain Divine Visionary by RedBegonias

Academy City of Science and Technology. A city containing about 2.3 million citizens with 80% of that population consisting of students, and home to two rival forces: Science and Magic. The conflict between Science and Magic has always been prominent, but when one group accidentally resurrects a menace from another world, not just Science and Magic are at stake; the world at large is put in danger. Hope is put into the heroes of the city, including the third-ranked Level 5 esper Railgun, Misaka Mikoto, and Kamijou Touma, the Imagine Breaker, but they can't handle the fight themselves. When Misaka is saved by a boy wielding a sword with a shining blue light, she realizes that this battle is bigger than the two can handle. First of several stories in the Xenoverse Chronicles Series, a series in which Shulk and company visit other universes to stop Zanza from conquering foreign worlds. I do not own Xenoblade Chronicles or the Certain Scientific/Magical series, this is a fan story.

Azrael (Vigilante Deku) by Chimera_Regarion

Izuku Midoriya had everything a 4-year-old child could wish for. He had a family, a home and a quirk that was like no other. Thanks to a tragic and very bloody night, he was left with nothing then his own memories of a happy past and his quirk to protect himself. He quickly found out that people are looking at him because of his quirk. All the people ever wanted was his quirk and not him. Years pass, and the little green bean learned to trust no one but himself. If one was to ask him what was his quirk, he would say he was quirkless. It was only a protection measurement he found out to be necessary. After all, a quirkless life was better than a life in a laboratory. One day he was fortunately enough to meet the number 1 hero and could finally ask him the question of his life. What will however happen if the symbol of peace gives him an answer he has never though he would hear? More importantly, what will he do once he finds out he still has family out there? Will Izuku be able to find them? And what will poor Izuku think about his new family? Will they be able to save him from himself? Let's find out!

Feral (Vigilante Deku) by Chimera_Regarion

Everyone said he was untamable and not human like! His mother couldn't handle the pressure of a son that had such a unique quirk and gave him up.

Little did they all know that Izuku was sneaking out nearly every night and doing the job of a dark hero. One that worked in the shadow of the night and never been seen before. However, one day Aizawa and Nezu payed a visit to the exact same mental hospital because they got some lead about a group of villains that were after UA. What will happen if Izuku breaks out once again and throws the whole hospital into chaos while two pro-heroes were in there? Well let's find out! A/N: This is a mha fanstory hope you enjoy!

THE LIGHT OF A'LEST by SteveSharrett

FOR MILLENNIA SHE HAS STOOD A SILENT VIGIL. HER POWER UNQUESTIONABLE. HER SHIELD LIGHT IMPENETRABLE. GAIA is a land rife with magic, mysticism, and the treachery of warring factions. But the stakes are raised when the guardian is destroyed, and darkness descends upon the continent. A demon now walks free, and hordes of Anasi are on the hunt. As chaos ensues and old feuds rear their heads, three strangers find themselves on a mission to save their world or be forced to watch it burn. ZANDER seeks answers. Abandoned by his father at a young age and confined to the outskirts of humanity, he does what he must to survive. But when a chance encounter grants him powers beyond his wildest imagination, the question soon becomes, will he like the answers he finds? KEKO is a prince who has been groomed since birth to lead the people of Tia into the future. What he wants, however, is another matter. As time runs out, he finds himself on a journey to reconcile the two before fate's cruel hand does it for him. KARA seeks revenge, or at least a chance to get even. Castaway by those who should love her most, she spends most of her days wading neck-deep in the wreckage of her past. Yet, as the world begins to burn around her, she finds herself seeking hope in the most unlikely of places.

ASORA: From The Blood Of The Shadows by rinaXhazurina

"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, a 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, the entity resorts to a mysterious girl who could only be his last hope to attain 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 world beyond saving that hangs in the state of trust and sanity? *~* Mature Contents: gore, violence, and subtle depictions of abuse and substance use.

FATE :: YGGDRA by ngilerjo_

For one, the other was the first to be led astray by deceit and out of the rightful embrace. For one, the other was the mark of eternal enslavement, home to those who chose to remain ignorant of humanity's true freedom. One was fighting to redeem its sins and return their brethren into righteousness, while one was fighting to free mankind. Both believed in their own justice and their own vision of an ideal world. Truly, justice never leads the heart astray. However, when two rival ideologies of justice collide, it will bring about an endless war. And thus, it has been written: Till All Are One.
