Babylon Lost
A super hacker wakes up one day to find himself trapped in a robotic body. There's a hostile AI stuck inside with him. He doesn't know how it happened and the world around him - the continental city sprawl of Babylon - has outlawed rogue synthetics. Worse of all, his memories are being deleted at an alarming rate. Now he must race against time to find out what really happened to him, the answers to which will have far greater implications than he could have ever imagined.Complete
CLOUD CASCADE
It's the year 398 of the Ninth Era, an age dominated by the Federation's authoritarian control and by the insidious influence of megacorps like Mercator Group. Human-piloted, mass-produced machines known as Frames define the battlefield, surveillance programs monitor your every move, and no one alive remembers what it was like before it got this way. It's in this tightly-wound, bloody ecosystem that four lives collide. The Knife, a mob enforcer with the ability to bend matter, ends up a courier for a piece of tech she's been trained not to ask questions about. Angela, a Frame Pilot Specialist with the Ministry of State Affairs, fights for justice only to find deafening silence. Grey, her teammate, just wants to keep the squad sane. Major Falwin, their superior, investigates a crime scene and finds a Knife-shaped ghost. Nobody has all the pieces to the puzzle-not until Frames drop, guns are pointed, and the nature of reality becomes a question mark. In this new, unrelenting conflict, there won't be any winners, only more devastation.
The Hunted
In a futuristic world, the residents have no say. From birth, they are monitored and chosen for the jobs within society. Some have more potential than others and are selected by the Elders before they start their formal schooling to fulfill prestigious positions after graduation. These students train together in a special facility and are respected by the society. Belle and Derek both hold those prestigious positions. Belle as an Agent and Derek as the Executioner. They've been accused and tried for the murder of a respected Agent. A murder that they did not commit. Now, they are thrust into the experimental punishment that is the Ki'i. The convicted are thrust into an enclosed area and left there until only one remains alive. The last one standing gains his or her freedom and a secure job in the government. Belle and Derek are best friends and neither one are willing to kill the other, but when their circumstances change, they have a chance to fight back against the Elders that sentenced them. Now, they are fighting for the rights of their people and against everything that they have been taught.Complete
Mood Ring
Many might see death and its companions (e.g. grief, depression etc.) as harmful experiences in life. But this story tries to tackle this perception and recount a story that portrays my view of death as an old friend that pays his visits not because he enjoys seeing you die, but because he cares about your transition. After all, life is what's killing us, death is just the observer, one that cares more about you than you might expect.Complete
CYBERPUNK RED: Silphium.
A man among the dead, Orsino Ottavi has spent the last six years as Night City's mayor, pushing to clean up the city with the help of his 'Winona-Accords' with remarkable success, he survives a deliberate assassination attempt on his life by an unknown assailant claiming to know everything he does. Orsino's life is thrown upside down as he finds himself stuck between a rock and a hard place, enlisting the help of a wanted vigilante known as 'The Judge' and breaking surveillance laws with the only ally he has left: an AI structured after his own brain waves. Soon he's trapped in a fight for survival, desperately attempting to figure out which of his ghosts are haunting him, and which are trying to kill him. [Author's Note: This story is a Cyberpunk Red fanfiction of my PC set a few years after the end of a 7-month long campaign I had played earlier this year. Personally, I felt like there was still a lot more of the world that I could explore, along with themes of consequence that I could play with using characters I knew and understood. ]Complete

A perpetual winter grips the globe, not with snow, but with a frigid silence that has rendered all but the strongest technology useless. Society, once a sprawling web of connection, has been reduced to millions of isolated lives, each confined within the glowing walls of their personal tech-pods. The world's collective heart has grown cold, and humanity has turned its back on itself. Now, as the great freeze threatens to sever the last digital threads connecting them, a low hum of panic pulses through the global network. With the last remnants of power failing, the isolated masses huddle in their pods, desperately clinging to the final, flickering embers of a world they've forgotten how to live in together.
