"I will endure to be burned, to be bound, to be beaten, and to be killed by the sword."
This vow marked the beginning of every novice's path to becoming a proper gladiator. Many echoed this same oath, varying with each fighters' reason for picking up a sword, spear, halberd, bow- they each carried the will to endure.

A series of.. scenes? One-shots? Set in a school for gladiators. (Some will connect with other chapters, and some will be miscellaneous scenes/scenarios I just wanted to digitalize).
I decided a full multichapter fic wouldn't be the best thing for me to devote myself to so here: "series" of scenes? Maybe I'll try and make it an actual cohesive story. Here I am, a beginner who wants to find their "niche" when it comes to writing.
I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to art (yes, I draw), so I'll have to work around that if I actually want to make any updates, albeit slow..
Featuring: Mainly Ethubs. Featuring (maybe) Gempearl, and Scarian. But if more propaganda works on me, I'll add more.
Tags will continue to update as this goes on.
- Don't expect consistent updates!
Slow burn? Or do I just not know how to write ? Who knows..
! GLADIATOR AU !
warning: author is inexperienced in writing (like, completely nothing, this is my first ever story), and has an indescribable hatred for reading and writing angst
(which does not pair well with the fact that I have decided to write a story set in a GLADIATOR SCHOOL, so that will be kept to a minimum, or if I can force it, none).
I will not publish a chapter if the scroll wheel is not smaller than the tip of my finger, OR If I'm not prepared to rapid fire (publish) multiple in one go.
- Mercy please, I'm practicing..

Rise Of The Lioness - Book 1 - A Hogwarts Legacy Fanfiction[Sebastian SallowxMC]
Book 1/2 Meet Eliza Thorne, a muggleborn witch with the ability to use ancient magic. Looking for a feral, feisty female main character with her heart on the sleeve and a short temper? You will love her! In the spring of 1898, a dream comes true for Eliza. The former Gryffindor student starts her career as an auror at the Ministry of Magic. She has spent the last five years working with Poppy for the American Association for Magical Beasts in France. Now, back in England, she runs into her old Hogwarts friend Sebastian, who vanished from her life in autumn 1893 with a farewell letter. After they sorted things out, they start working on a really interesting case, involving Dark Magic. The case and the revelations that come with it puts Eliza, Sebastian, and everyone else to a test that will change their lives forever. A dark power arises from the shadows and threatens to destroy the world as we know it. I started this fanfiction after a long writing pause (8 years). I write in my native tongue (German) and then translate into English. I would really appreciate comments and fair critisism so I can improve my writing abilities. AI pictures of Eliza done by the amazing my_slytherin_life. I really hope you enjoy my fanfiction. It's going to be a long one, with lots of world building and also long chapters.

Bound by Fire
Rating: 18+/New Adult Primary Genre: Dark Romantasy / Psychological Thriller with Epic Fantasy Elements Subgenres/Elements: Character-Driven, Found Family, Psychological Manipulation, Dark Romance, Love Triangle, Elemental Magic, Elite Military Academy, Coming-of-Age, Trauma & Healing Reader discretion is strongly advised. This book explores the blurred lines between love and obsession, protection and control, redemption and corruption. The ending sets up significant psychological conflict that challenges traditional romance dynamics. Synopsis: Fire doesn't ask for permission, it consumes. Celeste never asked to be extraordinary. When fire wakes beneath her skin and destroys everything she's ever known, she's taken from the quiet streets of Lahbell to the Southern Condinian Elite Academy-a fortress built to shape elemental soldiers from the ashes of fear. Inside its steel walls, rules are absolute, emotions are weaknesses, and failure is erased. But Celeste doesn't burn quietly. Between secret missions, rivalries, and whispered betrayals, she begins to uncover the truth behind Condinia's power, and the reason her own flames refuse to obey. Then there's Andrew: the soldier forged from fire and control. And Mark: the kinetic fighter who meets chaos with a grin. Both draw her in for reasons she can't name, and both force her to decide what her power is truly for-destruction, or protection. As darkness rises beyond the borders and loyalty fractures within, Celeste must confront the thing she fears most: that the fire inside her was never meant to be contained. Bound by Fire is a cinematic romantasy about survival, trust, and the bonds that are tested in war-where found family burns brightest in the shadows. Content Warnings: Graphic combat, PTSD, grief, military violence, and slow-burn romantic tension. Reader discretion is advised. You can also find my complete story on Amazon Kindle Unlimited Edition.Complete

Drifting Embers {Magics Fanfiction/AU} Book 4
[DISCONTINUED - OLD AND OUTDATED] A beast in a mythological story has one sole purpose. One sole path of destiny which was given to it from birth. Provide an obstacle for the protagonist to sway them away from the road of certain doom, only for the beast to be slain and defeated in the name of rightful justice and heroism. But what if the beast was the protagonist of its own story? What if the brave human that everyone adored and sympathized for as the villain and a monster? They've been called beasts and monsters before. But this time, they shall strike out and show the world that it is their view that is twisted and demented. They will rise above the stereotypical conspiracies. They will start fires from the sparks of rumors. They are the heroes of their own story. A story not written in the books but in their hearts with nothing but the pen and ink of experiences. Of knowledge. Of conditioning. Of misunderstanding. ~The original Magics series belongs to @shadowed-savior/Fan_FictionGirl2.

MYTHIC LEGENDS: FLAME AND EMPIRE
The war storms at the Frontier... The gods are broken. The empire is burning. And the end has already begun. A warrior with no past unleashes power no mortal should wield. A young ruler clings to a dying crown as his people lose faith. A chaos mage, feared and revered, walks with death in her shadow. Amongst their ranks-two Rifter siblings, wilders of ruin, benders of space and time. Feared. Watched. Leashed by the most powerful. But even under chains, love blooms... and loyalty begins to shift. When the empress falls into a cursed slumber-her unborn child the last ember of prophecy- the empire sends its strongest into the Abyss of Lost Quintessence: A place where even time forgets itself, where silence hungers, and where One of the Roots of the Umbrovyn Tree stands-ancient, cracked, and bleeding memory. Monstrosities roam, daring to strike in daylight. The veils whisper betrayal. Alliances splinter. Some stand frozen, unsure of their next move- fearing one wrong step may provoke the wrath of a dominion vast as a world and cruel as the gods who forged it. Old gods stir, craving redemption through ruin. The Royal House fractures beneath betrayal. A founding father, long patient, now bares their intent- to seize the throne by force, by cunning, by wagering all that is. Their House's malice toward the flawed Royal line can no longer be cloaked. Love will test loyalty. Legends will bleed. And in the dying light of Ether-Space- The Aurora must not fall... Or all realities will burn. 🔥

I never thought much of it, but it always made me curious what was there. - Scott gasped as he realized he was late. This was his big day, he couldn't fail his parents by skipping. Scott ran towards the forest and banged into the wooden shed, grabbing the bow and satchel of arrows before dashing out to his post.

Scott shot at them and the arrow hit one of the lions, which all started to chase him. Scott screamed for help as he ran, trying to get out. Trying to find others who could actually save and protect him. ~•~ Scott is a hunter, who is actually a big scaredy cat and longs for a life different than the one he has, and Jimmy is a free bird who can do basically anything he wants.
