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

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.
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 :)

Beyond Infinity: The Convergence
The earth has been ravaged by war, and all that is left of humanity is on an iron island out in the middle of the Atlantic ocean. It was a paradise, because on Olympus, they were gods, or so they were made to believe. The inhabitants of Olympus were untouchable, beyond simple human desires like greed, hate and violence. Unfortunately for them, they seemed to have incurred the wrath of actual gods, nightmares, and monsters. And so, they have been forced to flee their 'heaven' for greener pastures, but before then, they'll have to pass through hell. Monsters, demons, nightmares and gods are only supposed to exist in the world of imagination, and that's exactly where they came from. And it just so happens that to survive, they'll have to enter the human mind, they'll have to invade the world of imagination, but what horrors must await them in such a place, depraved of reason and logic, perverted by man's desires and sick mind.Complete
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
Dino-Mighty Isekai
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
