The group of Hero trainees looked in horror as the metal claw pushed itself out of the hole in the ground, each of its three digits being a complete Legion working with the others, and their hearts sunk even more when they realized there was more than one claw. Three more limbs made their way out...
2023-05-22 17:26:31 +0000 UTC View PostSarah dived under the metal fist that came flying to her face and raised her glowing knee into the attacking robot's waist, its lanky frame bending under the force of the impact before the machine fell to the ground. A second Legion dropped from above, jumping off from the roof of the fake buildi...
2023-05-16 17:06:58 +0000 UTC View PostIn a large white room the size of a gymnasium, a lean robot with a camera-like head with a single glowing red eye waited for its opponent to strike. The humanoid machine had thin bar-like limbs, with bulkier parts to act as joints as well to host many of its components within its relatively large...
2023-05-11 17:10:21 +0000 UTC View PostIn the Black Bank, a beam of light descended from the fake cosmos of the ceiling in the manager's office, and when its glow disappeared two figures were left, standing on the platinum planks on the floor. James retracted the tendril he had formed to hold onto Blake's hand and took in the decor of...
2023-05-05 18:32:16 +0000 UTC View PostJames mimicked taking a deep breath - he may have now lacked the lungs to truly do the act, but the mental connotation still helped calm him. He had dealt with the scammer, and with how the poor man looked when he left he had no doubt he would get most of what he had asked for when he returned to...
2023-04-28 14:35:07 +0000 UTC View PostGreetings everyone.
To make things short, for a little while now I've begun to worry I might have ADHD, and that it impaired my ability to be productive.
I've begun the process for an official diagnosis, and that part of it is a month of trial on anxiety meds.
The purpose of thi...
2023-04-22 14:18:58 +0000 UTC View PostGeorge Froko was not having a good day, today.
The short chubby man's black hair and mustache were messy instead of their usual oily swept-back look, an attempt at making himself look more well-off than he was to his usual clientele. His big red nose let out a loud sniff as he stared into h...
2023-04-22 14:09:13 +0000 UTC View PostTerra Stellis, a planet not unlike Earth, and yet so vastly different when one took a closer look. From its greater size to its somewhat alternate geography and topography as well as the difference in its geological makeup, countless little things were marking the two worlds as different, but the...
2023-04-16 14:41:15 +0000 UTC View PostJames stood in silence in the middle of Runar's office and simply basked in the glow of victory. The runemaster was gone, his escape card had been corrupted and had sent him somewhere, James didn't know where specifically, but through his connection with the man he could tell he was still alive, ...
2023-04-10 16:34:47 +0000 UTC View PostMedraw ran through the streets, away from the building she had called her home for the past year. The insectile humanoid would have cried had she had tear ducts, not just because of the throbbing pain coming from her dented forehead still leaking hemolymph, or the humiliation of losing to a child...
2023-04-01 14:30:24 +0000 UTC View PostRunar's arms spread to the side and runes of solid mana flowed from his gloved palms right as the golden and leather armors stepped forward, each one with its blades in hands and ready to strike down James. He melted back down into the darkness on the ground just in time to avoid the shortsword a...
2023-03-28 15:55:24 +0000 UTC View PostIn the slums of Zalcien, atop a relatively clean and preserved building, was an office on its roof. Sitting at his pristine wooden desk the master of the area, looking over the last modifications to his defenses, dressed in his yellow three-piece suit over a white blouse partially covered by a cy...
2023-03-22 17:56:52 +0000 UTC View PostJames kept on throwing more and more tentacles at Karadok, Runar's right-hand man, all the while avoiding the frantic attacks of Glapissant, the abominable monster made by the Patcher. The towering orc's shining armor glowed with the green power of magic as his blade moved as little as possible w...
2023-03-18 18:20:52 +0000 UTC View PostJames jumped from wall to wall to avoid the biting jaws of the abomination chasing him, its absurdly long neck still bent over its back to let the beast's head be placed roughly above its tail while it ran backward, the labyrinthine hallway being too small for it to turn properly - at least not w...
2023-03-16 15:18:49 +0000 UTC View PostBarry, Larry, Mark, and Jeffrey all looked on in horror - their two infused bodyguards didn't reach at all - at Pierce Evil as the golden knight in jousting armor stood between them and the warehouse of their salvation, his rapier pointed at them as it vibrated with violet energy. The man narrowe...
2023-03-12 16:18:47 +0000 UTC View PostStill hidden as a shadow on the ceiling, James carefully explored the fourth floor of Runar's building, jumping from dark spot to dark spot and fleeing from what little light was present, doing his best to find whatever creature had left those strange curved claw marks before it found him, all th...
2023-03-08 18:51:11 +0000 UTC View PostJames could tell something was very wrong with the fourth floor of Runar's building right immediately after he went out of the stairwell. Without considering the ruined runes spreading on the walls caused by the Techzooka, the atmosphere and the decor were just off. The windows were all closed an...
2023-03-03 14:20:45 +0000 UTC View PostTo tell the truth, James hadn't expected the new and improved Techzooka and its boosted ammunition to be so effective. Oh, he had been absolutely astounded at its performance back in the Sunken City when it had destroyed Sydakors' prison or house, but given Techlord's workload and the short timef...
2023-02-25 22:12:35 +0000 UTC View PostSomewhere in the slums of Zalcien stood a building in a relatively good state. The runemaster known as Runar had elected to turn it into his domain, so the building now housed manufacturing facilities where his men produced runic items they would later either use themselves or resell. As they wor...

The pyromancer and James had agreed wielding their magic could threaten the old building's structure if they stayed too close, hence this battlefield in the middle of nowhere. There were no lights to chase away the na...
2023-02-13 18:22:02 +0000 UTC View PostJames hadn't expected to be interrupted during his training by a phone call. Mischief coming to warn him about an attack on the warehouse, or perhaps even the shop? Sure, that was part of the plan, but a phone call meant the ones that needed him were the group in the Sunken City, and those should...
2023-02-04 17:26:09 +0000 UTC View PostBeneath Zalcien was another place, a parallel world born in the ruins of the city's past from an archaeologist's curiosity and criminals searching for a place to hide. This place, of course, was the Sunken City. In one of its less populated areas, below the slums that plagued the upper world, was...
