Faced with a choice between the dead-end life he's been living and a possibility of greatness, Sean has to decide if he's willing to risk everything for a chance to save Earth itself.

No one rules alone — that goes double when ruling something as vast as star systems. But what if you were dropped into a universe you really don't want to be in, with powers that attract a cult of child kidnappers at best? A Star Wars: The Old Republic self-insert following the Sith Warrior storyline, where knowledge is power — but power through knowledge alone may not be enough to survive.

Real Fantasy Online is the flagship product for the latest generation of neural-interface headsets, promising total immersion and the best NPC AIs ever created. But when the line between one's real self and one's digital identity becomes blurred, and the gods have their own agenda, who is the player and which is the game? Marcus has played any number of VR games and beta-tested dangerous systems. He usually disdains pre-order perks, but this time the bonus — the ability to craft your character's backstory and have it integrated into the game's lore — is too tempting to pass up. He opts to make a character purely for fun, with no interest in being all-powerful. Things aren't quite what they seem, however, and his backstory and character class have implications he never would have imagined.

Earth lost a war it never knew it was fighting. The Batract Hyphae arrived with contracts and promises, but their true interest was in humans as a workforce and mercenary force for their vast empire. Five decades later, humanity's progress is stunted and Integration Officers monitor everything.

Humanity must use diplomacy where possible and domination where necessary to end the threat to its freedom once and for all.

A cyberpunk magical-girl alien-invasion LitRPG — exactly as wild as it sounds.

The Intergalactic Imperium invoked their right of Eminent Domain to appropriate Earth for a highway — and the planet burned. Cedrick Jonkheer, left with nothing but a sarcastic AI and some superpowers, watched his world end and hid himself at the bottom of the Mariana Trench. "Etherforging," his AI called it: taking the same power that destroyed the world and making it his own. Advance. Grow stronger. Forge himself into someone who could survive a mad universe.

Everyone is obsessed with Neon Dragons — the latest highly immersive cyberpunk aRPG from Sparksoft. But when our late-twenties protagonist's PC broke days before the game's release, all she could do was watch content creators play through it, limiting her knowledge to what she saw in those playthroughs. Things change drastically when she wakes up inside the body of a 15-year-old girl inside the city of Neo Avalis, six years into the game's past. She can level herself just like a character in the game, and with everything she's read and watched about Neon Dragons, she sets her sights on solving the mystery of the enigmatic Wall at the edge of the play-area. But she quickly realizes that this game is very real — life in a cyberpunk future is full of danger and intrigue, and the world has some surprising differences from the game she watched.

Brooke believed she understood the tug-of-war between entities seeking to end or save humanity. She believed in the Vanguard — heroes granted immense power via contracts with the eldritch. She believed she would have no part in any of it, and above all, she believed in a path back to some semblance of normality. She was wrong. Follow Brooke and Roosevelt's incomprehensible journey as they contend with forces beyond understanding. As she delves deeper into the abyss, she'll find new allies, horrifying phobias, and a healthy respect for anything with more than two mouths.

After all, potential unrealized is no power at all.

When humanity first ventured into space, they discovered the Galactic Commonwealth — an ancient and powerful alliance that barely noticed them. One species, the arboreal Eleani, took an active interest in humanity, offering guidance and friendship as they watched their younger cousin-kin earn their place among the stars. Decades later, the Insectoid Empire launched a devastating new campaign against the Commonwealth — a spacefaring hive-mind of wasp analogues that did not stop after seizing border planets as before. They killed over a hundred billion souls across dozens of worlds, destroyed half the Commonwealth Navy, and swept through the undefended periphery toward the Eleani homeworld. As extinction loomed and the Commonwealth government declined to help, the Eleani broadcast pleas to anyone who would listen. The Republic of Humanity answered the call.

In the far future, humanity has expanded into the stars. In the Collective, energy is limitless, communication is nearly instantaneous, and even death has been vanquished — Citizens are reborn after each death. Benning Kidd is a Drone, the lowest class of humanity, existing without memory, purpose, or self-awareness. An accident changes everything, and Benning becomes the first Drone in history to become a Citizen. Uniquely talented and unscrupulously driven, she chooses a path of battle and glory. But her existence is a threat to those in power, and forces move against her from the moment she steps out of the respawn chamber. Her only chance of survival is to be stronger, smarter, and more cunning than those who stand in her way.

In a fit of suicidal rage, something changed: he became a Wisher, smarter and sharper than before, yet fundamentally still himself. Now he lives as a vigilante — not an official hero but a rogue man of the night who beats up bad guys and has a talking dog and cat for company. He is a cynic, a loner, and a sadistic hermit with no love to give. That is about to change, and so is his pain.

"Of course I'm a tyrant. I've never claimed to be anything else." — The First and Last Emperor. Solis is an escaped survivor of the Church of the Celestial Heir, a cult dedicated to the end of days. When the System Apocalypse arrives — one the world was warned about in advance — Solis finds himself struggling against his own tyrannical impulses in an effort to do good. A character-focused story of dramatic rise to power, featuring in-depth and unique system mechanics, a pure mage build, and themes of legacy in an apocalyptic society.

He saved humanity. The same humanity that had betrayed him. Then he was an outcast again. Now, years later, he doesn't expect gratitude and doesn't offer forgiveness — he just doesn't need anyone anymore. Memory is his voice, rage is his fuel, and an army of steel is his weapon. Reborn into a new world and a new body, the Drone Lord decides his own fate — not gods, not people, not anybody except himself.

With a lifetime of naval service experience to draw upon, Captain Watkins must become something more than he was before — a vessel powerful enough to survive the journey home.

BuyMort broke that deal the moment it unleashed alien entrepreneurs upon his planet, intent on selling everything not already tagged as private property. When a man has little, he cherishes it. When that little is lost, he'll do whatever it takes to get it back.
