Each year across Nir, nations encompassing every race celebrate unity, athleticism, and wisdom. From the trollan jungles of Taniros to the shining elven city of Luminaria, two champions emerge to represent their people.
The victors walk away with riches and fame. Honor is optional.
No two arenas are the same, and only the strongest survive. Traps, monsters, and puzzles await, fraught with danger and a command to protect the team talisman.
...
A young rogue from Nir's northernmost region, Ives only has one goal: win the Games. He's trained his entire life for this, and dreams of being the first player of human descent to win the games since Tallon Colbert's legendary victory several years prior. His motivations or no one else's business
The problem? He's partnered with Sera Phenos, a seasoned monk from the native community of a far-off archipelago.
Last year, Ives cost her a spot in the games, and Sera is in no mood to forgive her partner. He is reckless and a liability; a disastrous quality in a champion competing in challenges far above his league.
The pair lands themselves in trouble before the games even start, making working together nearly impossible. Unfortunately, any hope to win means they must set aside their differences and cooperate, a feat that's easier said than done.
After all, only one team can win.

The Art of Blood and Power (Book 2 in The Gifted Trilogy)
As long as people believed that there was a division between the Gifted and the non-Gifted, that one was superior to the other, I wasn't done. As long as there were kings on thrones to reinforce the idea that people like Porter and Briar and everyone else I cared about were unworthy of this world, I wasn't done. "And then," I continued, a resolution forming in my mind. "I'm going to destroy those six thrones." ********************************************** Wren Heatherfield has been through hell and back, surviving the deadly trials of the Garner and claiming the title of Garner Champion. However, her fight is far from over, with the real challenges only just beginning. Adjusting to her new life in the Ember Court with her insufferable enemy-turned-friend Kesserian Cinis, Wren is forced to face the truth of how close the six courts of Naturian are to a civil war, with Nox and Wren leading the opposing sides. But the fight for allies she can trust might turn out to be just as hard as her internal fight: coming to terms with her true identity. With the loyalties and beliefs of her past and present self at war with each other, Wren must decide who she is and what she stands for if she has any hope of surviving this upcoming war. Plagued by nightmares and trauma from her time in the Garner, Wren must find a way to keep moving forward. With the weight of a crumbling nation on her shoulders, Wren has one chance to fix the injustices that plague Naturian and achieve her dreams of toppling tyranny, but the alluring power of the throne might prove too intoxicating for even her to resist. A fight for her loved ones. A fight for the oppressed. A fight to save the remaining good in Naturian. The chains have been released. Now the real fight begins.Complete
The Art of Courts and Lies (Book 1 in The Gifted Trilogy)
Ice flooded my veins as the realization of who he was hit me. It must have been evident on my face because the man in front of me let out a dark laugh. "Oh dear, you didn't realize you were talking to a royal, did you darling?" he crooned. Not just any royal. Kesserian Cinis. The recently coronated king and ruler over the Ember Court. I forgot how to breathe, my mind whirring as it tried to figure out how I could have been so stupid as to let this happen. *************************************************** Wren Heatherfield is on the run. Having turned 18, she is now in danger of becoming selected for the Garner, a deadly game in which the six kings who rule over her continent take eighteen non-magical girls and make them fight for their lives. But as she tries to avoid the game by running away with her best friend and her sister, she consequently finds herself doomed to be a competitor in the 246th Garner. But the Garner isn't the only thing capable of killing her. In a castle surrounded by kings with dark powers and girls fighting for their lives, she may find that the politics of royalty can be just as deadly as their games. No one can be trusted in a palace full of monsters and, if Wren has any hopes of survival, she may have to become one herself.Complete![Frozen Bonds [Superhero Romance with Spice and LitRPG elements]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/402688865-256-k64095.jpg)
Frozen Bonds [Superhero Romance with Spice and LitRPG elements]
Theo Reyes is just trying to finish his shift when Thorn Crawlers swarm one of Nexus City's industrial districts. One minute he's working on his latest Rift-resistant building designs, the next he's trapped on the fortieth floor with elevators offline and creatures flooding through the ventilation systems. Then Sergeant Mira Kane crashes through his office windows in a shower of glass and kinetic energy, all business and barriers until her extraction mission goes sideways. Turns out the monsters aren't even their biggest problem-there's something in the air, courtesy of the invading creatures, and it's doing things to Mira's meta-human physiology that she can't just power through. And that's when things get complicated. Because Theo's not meta. He's just a civilian architect who happens to be really good at designing buildings that don't collapse when dimensional rifts try to tear them apart. But when protective instinct meets desperate need and exposed Rift Scars start amplifying everything? Suddenly his touch has Mira looking at him like he just became the most important person in her world. In Nexus City, only 0.1% of humanity has powers. The System grants levels, stats, and a personal inner HUD that won't shut up. Defeats can lead to growth through... unconventional means. And the corruption? It runs way deeper than either of them realized. Temperature play powers. Institutional betrayal. Survival in maintenance tunnels. And an awakening that nobody saw coming. What to expect: Visceral meta-human action. LitRPG mechanics (Stats, Levels, XP, skill trees, the works). Plot with spice, not just a string of gratuitous encounters. Consent-focused intimate content that serves character development. Corruption subplot because of course Parallax Guard has problems. Environmental survival and creature threats. Content warning: Sexual content (18+), graphic violence, adult language. This is a consent-forward LitRPG romance with mature themes.
Echoes of Fate - A D&D Story
What begins as a simple escort mission soon unravels into a battle for survival, vengeance, and destiny. Fendic Lancer, a fierce Dragonborn warrior searching for his place in the world. Alista Willow, a rogue with a haunted past and a secret even she doesn't understand. Balder Slashman, a half-orc druid whose wisdom is often overshadowed by his eccentricity. Together, they set out on a journey through the Sword Coast-only to find themselves entangled in a war far greater than they imagined. From the depths of Cragmaw Hideout to the ruins of Wave Echo Cave, they will face goblin armies, ruthless mercenaries, and dark magic beyond comprehension. But as secrets unfold, Alista discovers she is more than just a survivor-she is the key to something far greater. And Fendic? He must learn that true strength isn't just found in battle-it's found in the bonds we forge and the legacies we leave behind. As their final battle approaches, allies will rise, sacrifices will be made, and destinies will be decided. The Echoes of Fate call to them. But will they survive long enough to answer?

Warning: Contains occasional (non-graphic) dark themes that some may find upsetting. --- Gods, demons, and heroes. Typical MMO fare-or so I thought. When my guild dragged me into Jeriskyr Online, I expected I'd be playing the latest VR game. Nothing could have been further from the truth. You see, the gods like to trade people. Chosen by the gods of Jeriskyr and betrayed by my own, I found out that this virtual world is all too real. Now, I must choose between my own people and a cocky incubus. It should be an easy decision, yet I find my loyalties torn between the tyrannical and backwards Issradian Empire, or the oppressed demon kingdom, Nabyr-zahn. To embrace injustice or betray my own race. Or maybe I'll just burn it all down.Complete

When Kacia discovers the forbidden magic running through her veins, she is given a choice - pretend her powers belong to her worst enemy, and use them to help him cement his claim to the throne - or forfeit her life. Can she play along for long enough to plot Ash's downfall, or is their fake truce about to turn into something a lot more complicated? ✨ Throughout fifteen years of Lathrian rule, Kacia has dreamt only of her family and her freedom. After she braves a storm-tossed mountainside in search of reunion with a mother she hasn't seen for a decade, she discovers that she has the power to mimic the magic of others - an ability that sees her sentenced to death by the Lathrian Kingdom which controls her people. That is, until the Lathrian king demands she uses her powers to legitimise his stepson's claim to the throne. If she agrees, she can keep her life - for now. Kacia becomes caught between the volatile brothers she didn't know existed and a prince who is more sympathetic than he seems.
