An odd fantasy satire inspired by real DnD characters. This book is a concept draft, a few chapters exploring the idea of Grung as a character and the world he might inhabit. I dropped this idea eventually to move on to an alternate book project, but you're welcome to see the story-that-was, and meet my favourite little red frog wizard.

* * *

The Southerlands should have been flourishing, prosperous, but that was then. Now its very existence hangs by a thread, its people starving and the Emperor threatening to withdraw his armies and leave it to its fate.

...turns out it's expensive to run a far-off province that's beset on all sides by hardship. Who'd have thunk it?

Lucilla, teenage daughter of the provincial Dominus, may now be the only thing that could save her home - but she won't be alone. Joining her on an epic quest are Jendar, the mysterious titanic knight, and Grung - the, err, frog wizard. He shouldn't be here, but nobody knew what else to do with him. All he wanted was to buy some new spells. Now he's on a quest. Not that he seems to realise.

Can Lucilla, Jendar, and Grung pass the Three Trials, find the ancient Godswell, and save the Southerlands? And, more importantly, will Grung ever find the spells he's looking for?

"Grung: A Frog Wizard" is an epic fantasy adventure steeped in folklore, and ruined by a little red frog who has no idea what's going on. But he's happy to be there.All Rights Reserved

Mind of Matter by M-Hart7

Enola Scamander grew up at Hogwarts during the reign of Grindelwald-practically abandoned there by her older brothers-Newt and Theseus. As their fame grew rampant and their involvement in the fight against Grindelwald became public, Enola's sense of individuality diminished until she was a meager imitation of what the Scamander name was supposed to stand for. The whispers and favoritism that followed her at Hogwarts were bad enough, but after entering the real world and landing a career as an auror, she quickly realizes that she can never make a name for herself as long as she lives in the shadow her brothers' cast before her. After six years graduated and not hearing a word from her brothers since, she finally receives a letter from her dear brother Newt asking her to meet him at the London Underground. What greets her is an opportunity of a lifetime, an adventure worth waiting for, and a keen mystery to solve. This story is bound to involve (somehow) a certain man out of time, a sassy tin man with a non-existent filter, a Russian assassin who can't confirm 'what happened in Budapest,' a hulking rage monster who doesn't like blueberries, the God of hair flips, Katniss Everdeen, and patchy the pirate. Adventure awaits among these pages, dear reader. My only hope is that you enjoy every step. Guaranteed updates-every week!

How to Stay Out of Prison: A Modern-Day Woman's Guide by meclayton2016

What do you get when lack of sleep turns you into a raving lunatic? The most embarrassing moment of your life. Lyrical Lyrical Rodgers lives a simple life. She manages a pet store, has a fantastic family, a great best friend (you only need one), and lives in the apartment of her dreams. Well, the dreams she can afford. The only dark spot in her rather happy life is her new neighbor. He's a jackass, parties all night, and has no regard for anyone other than himself. He's also sleeping with the building manager, so he's no help. Nixon Nixon St. James is successful, wealthy, good-looking, and comes from a great family. On paper, he's a fantastic catch. In person, he could benefit from a semester-or two-at charm school. A prominent architect and real estate developer, Nixon has it all...uh, his temper notwithstanding. Apart from his penchant for going off the rails every now and again, Nixon really has no complaints. When jumping to the wrong conclusion does its thing... After Lyrical unleashes weeks of sleep-deprived anger on her new neighbor, she heads over to her best friend's apartment (one floor above hers) and tells her all about it. However, as she goes into further detail, it starts to become clear that she may have cussed out the wrong person. After Nixon gets the verbal lashing of his life, he's not sure which issue to address first. How does he convince the angry spitfire that he's not gay, not straight pretending to be gay, or not gay and having an affair with his brother? I mean, he's been accused of a lot of things in life, but this? This is crazy. Good times. NOTE: This book contains adult language, adult situations, explicit sexual encounters, and an imaginary trip to Minneapolis. If sensitive to any of the aforementioned issues, please do not purchase.

Atlantis Academy: The First Element by AutumnKalquist

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?

Codex Gigas - Realm of Serpent God by Luciasher

In the aftermath of the collision, where the Light Dimension and Dark Dimension violently merged, Arcanoa was born-a realm where fantasy came alive, and nightmares roamed the earth. This cataclysmic event has unleashed monstrous beings from the Hollow Zone, Veilos, upon an unsuspecting world. To balance this surge of darkness, a select few were gifted with the power of Aura-a rare mystical force that grants its bearers the strength to be humanity's guardian. Sixteen-year-old Lucius Gregory has long severed his ties with the unjust world, choosing a life of isolation deep within the whispering forests, seeking solace with his beloved sister, Evangeline. Haunted by a past marred by tragedy, Lucius has forsaken the burdens of destiny and yearn only for peaceful life. But peace is but a fleeting dream. One fateful night, their sanctuary is shattered by the ruthless Chaos Syndicate-a malevolent organization bent on uncovering the domain of the Serpent God with Lucius' power, as foretold by a dark prophecy. Forced to flee, Lucius narrowly escapes the clutches of death, but at the heart-wrenching cost of Evangeline's life. He later discover that the Chaos Syndicate orchestrated the calamity that decimated his village two years prior. They seek the Codex Gigas, a legendary tome said to hold the Answers to All Mysteries within Arcanoa. The first key to unlocking its secrets lies within the cursed power of the Serpent God-power that Lucius inadvertently related to. Driven by vengeance and duty, Lucius sets forth on a perilous quest. Accompanied by his ethereal spirit companion, Lily, and the Exorcists of the Golden Arslan-a revered organization dedicated to restoring humanity's hope, Lucius embarks on a journey across treacherous seas to the Realm of the Serpent God, nestled within the heart of the dreaded Sea of Devils. Will he rise as the beacon of hope his sister believed in, or will he unleash the very darkness he strives to destroy?

Starsong by Persephone_Strange

All Ren wants is to be left alone. After withdrawing ten years ago to leave someone-- or something-- behind, Ren has lived alone in her cabin. Nobody to see her. Nobody to talk to her. Nobody to use her. But when a strange girl shows up at her doorstep and refuses to leave, Ren is forced to come back into life and face the world she left behind-- for better or worse. All Piya wants is to be an adventurer! Twelve years old with only her lute and the clothes on her back, Piya Nightclaw is a young bard with a big voice. She's going to make her name known, and going on huge adventures is the perfect way to do it! Unfortunately, her skill won't take her far if nobody will give her a chance. But she's gotten as far as she has by being good at what she does and refusing to listen to naysayers, and she's not about to stop. When she finds her way to a grizzled old woman living in the woods, she's thrilled-- a retired adventurer! And she's going to mentor Piya whether she likes it or not! All Tok wants is to feel safe... He did, once. Kinda. Sorta. But since the day he escaped to the surface, his entire life has turned upside down. After being captured by siren hunters and saved by a small adventuring party, he ends up traveling with them, hoping to reach a city where he can finally be protected. But the past has a way of creeping back in... Has he really escaped what he ran away from? And what happens if his past comes for his new companions? For fans of Dungeons and Dragons and other fantasy RPGs, Starsong is the story of a rag-tag party from wildly different lives, brought together by a search for stability and life. But, of course, life isn't that easy, not when you get involved in magic deals, traps, and even conspiracy along the way... -- Notes: This content the maturity of a middle-grade novel, and as such, I kindly ask all readers to refrain from swearing or inappropriate speech while commenting.

The misadventures of a Main Character [Complete] by Wolfwhistle

***Previously Wattpad Featured Story*** Meet your run-of-the-mill protagonist: Main Character. In this fantasy (spoof) of an epic adventure, Main embarks on a quest to conquer the world, guided only by the words of a drunkard, and a bolt of red lightning. It soon becomes clear that the twelve-foot troll travelling with him is only the start of his increasingly bizarre list of sidekicks. Rising to villainy is harder than it looks, Main realizes; plot twists give him vertigo, and hard work is migraine-inducing. But still, there's a world to conquer, fangirls to run from, and love to fall slave to. What could possibly go wrong? COMPLETED
