This world is based on three core principles: Hope, Faith and Emotion. Hope is lower than faith for it can be felt without reason and by anyone at anytime, Faith is lower than emotion for Faith can placed blindly, and above both of them rests Emotion for it cannot be faked and can even transcend from a abstract concept to a physical form.
"The scariest demons are those we find within ourselves" these words are more reality than philosophy in this world. In this world live people with extraordinary abilities that are unique to each individual but with this power comes a great cost, feeling any emotion in excess will turn a human into a Danger Beast. These feral creatures do not respond to reason and are extremely deadly, feeding off of the emotions felt in the moment that morphed them into hideous creatures and using it to sustain themselves, because of their danger to the people around them these creatures must be hunted down and dealt with...
And that is where Torpid Potent comes in

Hello, my name is Vince Himura, or that was my name back then. You see, up until a few moments ago, I was your average 20 something paleontologist working day to day in a museum. Most of my time was spent working either in my office, looking through different documents involving recent discoveries, or just working in a lab looking over the fossils we get. Then one day, when I was finally assigned to supervise a paleontological dig, the area we were working at was in the middle of two cliffs during a landslide. I managed to push my colleagues out of the area but as a result, I ended up critically injured and died. Though I croaked, I don't regret saving them, I was raised to always help others and put the lives of others before my own. Though on the odd side, I ended up meeting some deities from another world, apparently they saw my noble action and wanted to reward me. They also felt sorry since I had bit the dirt at a young age so they wanted to give me a second chance. Now I live in the world of Atlasia, a world of monsters, warriors and magic, best of all. My own special power, allowed me to become the most powerful creatures that walked the earth. Dinosaurs!!!Complete
Reborn in TVD?!
I don't get it. I really don't. I died, I get that much. But waking up in a dark and squishy place, with absolutely NO ROOM to move, I DON'T GET. Let's recap. It was a regular day. I got up, ate, showered and went to work. I was a police officer. I was checking out a house call about domestic abuse. I didn't even get to knock on the door before a man bursted out screaming at a women about calling the pigs on him. It didn't take much to figure out he was the abuser with the way he was holding her arm tight enough to bruise. I tried to diffuse the situation, told him to calm down and let her go. He didn't like that. In the end I got shot and died. Then I woke up in a small and dark space and freaked out. Then I get pushed out only to cry and realize I'm a baby. Oh, but not just anyone's baby. I'm Miranda and Grayson Gilbert's baby?! In 'The Vampire Diaries'?! What the fuck is happening?!

Journey within the beast world
It was dark. *Bu-bump... Bu-bump... * Tiny heartbeats and blood pumping is the only thing you can hear. Trying to open your eyes but no avail, you tried to stretch your body but you could only do much. You couldn't do anything besides thinking and feeling the warmth that surrounds you. 'Where am I..? Gosh, I'm so sleepy.... Hnmm.. ' You tried to recall everything, and it slowly came to you. 'Where are everyone? I was just with them a moment ago.... What happened' * ghasp * You gasped upon realization, every bit of your memory flooded back.![Seven Emotions [Process of Editing]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/107642702-256-k201495.jpg)
Seven Emotions [Process of Editing]
Books Aren't Like The Real World Spin-Off (Oh BrEe WhYd YoU cHaNgE tHe CoNcEpT?!: Because I can.) ------- There's a legend that tells a tale of a group of 7, immortal and dangerous. They roam around Earth every few centuries and destroy what mankind works hard for. That is, if this legend is even true at all. -|-|-|-|-|- *Warning* -Profanity -Completely rushed -Lots of characters you have to remember -|-|-|-|-|- Seven emotions: Rage, Fear, Envious, Sadness, Happy, Disgust, and Anticipation, all with their certain powers. Ideally, they're immortal, but the more power they use, the more their life shortens. Certain requirements had to be made so that they could live on Earth and breath the oxygen. And after so many years of fighting and fighting, having almost no time to live the lives they want, they give up, spending what normal teenagers would use to play video games or go shopping to train and increase their magic. With another big attack coming along soon, Rage is going to go into Immortal's Death for sure, Envious, Happiness and many others are certainly going to be on the brink of it. With training and modern technology blocking their lives, is it a good thing when someone, specifically a boy who claims he's a spawn of Satan, enters their world? ----- Highest Rank:#26 7/26/17 ---- Started: April 29th, 2017 Finished: August 17th, 2017Complete

Fight me. I dare you. 1.5
Emotions make you weak. I've watched emotions break people because they were consumed by them. I don't understand why they let emotions rule them. They are all broken, hurting and ruined. I can't save them. I can't do anything my hands are tied. Literally. We are slaves. It doesn't bother me, I could care less. Being a weapon doesn't bother me. But it hurts them and I can't have that. No matter how long it takes. I will get them out. Note: This is set before Try me. I dare you. From River's POV and a few others of her herd. It starts when River is one and will go on till right before she enters the school. I recommend you do read it before book two of the 'I dare you' series. Where a lot of this book comes out.Complete
Beauty in the world of Beasts
Have you ever wanted to be reborn? In a world of your choosing? Well ____ didn't get a choice. She was thrown into an unknown world, one she's never read about. Join her as she learns to survive in this new place? She'd greatly appreciate some company 《Going to be working on a description, can't think of anything good right now》 ================= I've really gotten into this from the Mangas, I've even read a few on here. So I thought why not make a book! It is my own original idea, though the concept of the beast world isn't mine the story plot is. I hope you guys will enjoy it! Also don't hesitate to let me know if somethings spelled wrong, there's added words, or doesn't make since! Sometimes I catch them, other times I don't so it would be very helpful 😊 Updates: At least once a month At most every Friday
Dragon Reincarnated (Working title)
As an avid- and fairly unsuccessful- writer of fantasy fiction, I know that dragons are pretty much the pinnacle of existence. I dare anyone to argue. So, when my mundane existence comes to an end and I am offered a choice of whatever race I liked upon reincarnating into a fantasy world, of course I chose dragon. Little did I know that my life as a dragon would take more than its fair share of twists and turns. But hey, I was a dragon... Everyone knows you don't mess with dragons. This is the next one to be added up on Royal Road in a couple days, once Broken's current chapters are done being added :)
Reborn
Standing on the path, my life flashed before my eyes. The gun directed at me, went off. I could see the flash and the bullet coming straight for me, but I'm frozen to the spot I'm standing, unable to move or think clearly. It only registered with me that the bullet pierced my skin when my body impacted on the cold wet cement. Lying there I could hear my heartbeat slow as my blood flowed from my body. That's when I heard it, footsteps getting closer til a man face appeared in front of me. But my vision is too blurry to see him clearly. That' s when he spoke, "You will be reborn. I'm giving you a second chance.You are not my beloved so you will wake up a soulless killer with no remorse and a burning desire for blood. I can't give you a normal life but I'm giving you the chance for revenge. I can't tell you what to expect because I don't know myself. I have no idea why I'm changing you but something is telling me it is not you're time to die" I had no idea what he' s talking about, well not til I woke up. That night Ivy died and what was reborn is something dark and dangerous. He was right, I am a soulless monster. I have no remorse for the blood I shed. Not when it gets me closer to having my revenge.Complete
