Jakob was only seven when he was summoned to Helmsgarten's sewers by the Fleshcrafter calling himself Grandfather. For seven painful years, Jakob studied the depraved craft of his monstrous mentor, before being let loose on the populace of the metropolis. With the vague task of creating the ultimate being to rival Grandfather's greatest creation, he is left with nothing but the flesh-stitched robes on his body and the loyal wight Heskel. Together, the pair explore a civilisation utterly alien to them, raised as they were in the dark and damp of the city's underbelly. Along his journey, Jakob constructs monsters and constructs, dodges the noose of the guards, joins the Adventurers' Guild in his voracious hunt for knowledge, and parleys with Demon Lords and Great Ones. Many who believe him a weak child suffer eternally for their arrogance. And in the end, even Grandfather must face the realisation that his creation is greater than he could ever have imagined.

Hong Fei was once a promising soldier. Now his cultivation is crippled, and he limps toward his last hope: a quiet position in the household of Duke Yu, an old family ally living in exile. All he seeks is a place to fade into obscurity with dignity. But fate has other plans. Two mysterious cards fall into his possession — one summons a giant badger spirit beast, the other heals what everyone said couldn't be healed. When he finally reaches the Yu household, he finds not refuge but a family under siege: the duke is dying, the duchess hides her own illness, and rival nobles circle like wolves. Hong Fei wanted to disappear. Instead, he must become the shield between a falling house and those who would devour it — while behind the political schemes and assassination attempts, someone is stealing fate itself.

When Earth evolves past a threshold few even knew existed, humanity is whisked away by the Grand System to an educational Tutorial. Arthur Ward is left behind, bleeding out on a sidewalk. Animals have become deadly monsters, dimensional incursions are a constant threat, and Arthur is forced to adapt or die. Missing the Tutorial was supposed to be a death sentence — but with new rules to live by and a path to redemption before him, it may be the best thing that ever happened to him. After all, nothing is quite impossible when you can rewrite reality itself.

Living in a world of cultivators is like walking on the edge of a knife. Su Fang arrives completely unprepared, knowing nothing and lacking any skills — destined, by all accounts, to die. Fortunately, Su Fang is immortal. Not because he cannot die, but because when he does, he un-dies. His System returns him to the start of his journey after each death, rewarding credits he can spend on anything — but only enough to return him to the point where he fell. To advance further, he must rely on himself alone. A story that is equal parts time loop and xianxia, with a focus on cultivating the self as much as cultivating power. Not about saving the world — about living life in an unfamiliar place where everyone seems to want you dead or enslaved.

Cairn is a prince who is already tired of ruling.

He immediately begins planning for the future, only to discover his killer has somehow followed him back. To succeed, he must unite the kingdom and uncover his killer's motivation—using as many tries as it takes.

Whatever kills Shiv only makes him stronger. An outcast in his town, considered an unholy omen, Shiv has spent years fruitlessly hunting monsters on his own — the System seems to spurn him and the authorities refuse to grant him a Path. When his town is attacked and Shiv is murdered in combat, he finds himself bestowed with a Unique Path possessed by no one else: the Path of the Deathless. Resurrecting upon death, he is cast into the Abyss. In that dark and wondrous place, he is finally free to chart his own destiny — if he can survive its countless dangers. In a world that stands against him, death is not the end. For Shiv, it's just another source of power.

After being killed, a somewhat intellectually and empathically disadvantaged young mage wakes up just in time for the start of semester exams. He has been marked with the brand of time — cursed to return upon every death until a coming calamity is prevented.

A lost soul from Earth transmigrates into a world of cultivation and finds himself in the body of a playboy noble who is wasting his life. He has no memories of being this person, cannot let anyone know he's not the same individual, and is immediately entangled in a conspiracy involving the downfall of a prominent young genius. Luckily, he arrives with one power: whatever he gives to someone as a gift, he gets back one hundred times better. His first target? His new wife — the former top young genius.

Today wasn't one of Fritz's best days — mainly because he'd been beaten, kidnapped, stuffed in a cell with a slew of other captives, then forced to climb a particularly malevolent Spire. The Spires have stood tall for thousands of years as cities, kingdoms, and empires rise and fall around them. Inside are Treasures, Monsters, and most importantly, Powers. Every floor conquered gives a choice of magical Abilities or Attributes that, when built up and chosen well, could raise even a street urchin to a king or beyond. Which is lucky for Fritz and his crew — urchins and thieves caught in a deadly peril. Climb or die.

Andy wanted a quiet life — just his trailer, the Sonoran desert, and a job that didn't ask much of him. Instead, he got a front-row seat to Tucson's collapse. Magic rewrote the rules. Monsters stalked the streets. People mutated — or died. He didn't plan to be a hero. But when the screaming started, Andy grabbed a broken broomstick and did what he does best: survive. Now he has more than his own skin to worry about — kids looking to him for protection, neighbors turning to him for leadership, and a trailer park slowly transforming into a fortress. The System is leveling him up, but not fast enough. The countdown is ticking, the invasions are coming, and if Andy fails, everyone he has begun to care about will be slaughtered.

Not everyone gets a soul. The rise of industry and mechanization has sent the world's population booming, striving relentlessly for the fixed handful of souls that level armies and steer the fate of nations. Michael is the scion of a lord — and the soulless cannot hold such a title. For five years he has endured pain and failure attempting to claim one of the souls freed by its vessel's death, earning only his father's contempt. The remnants of a crumbled empire fight in a grinding, bloody war against their ancient enemy. At last, one more opportunity has come. But not everyone gets a soul quite like his.

Gwen Song awoke in a world that was not her own. Instead of airplanes and electricity, this 21st-century Earth is ruled by magic and dragons; humanity survives in a land of magical beasts and otherworldly beings, protected by shielded enclaves and magical constructs. Follow Gwen as she struggles to rebuild her life in this strange new reality — growing from a grade school student into a fully-fledged Mage, through university and beyond, uncovering the secrets of a world made unreal by magic and mysticism.

Thrust into a dangerous new fantasy world, Will's life becomes a war for survival. He has nothing more than a class called "Soldier" and a strange leveling system he's never seen before. When he stumbles across a dying stranger, a mysterious questline activates, sending him to the front lines where humanity wages war against a ruthless Goblin Horde. There he joins the standing Kadian Army and must forge his name from the fires of legend — facing goblins, hordes of undead, cultists, and demons while climbing through the military ranks.

Arc Sandhurst will become a mech pilot, even if it kills him. After his sister's ship is destroyed by the Pirate Queen of Nepenthe with all hands lost, Arc enters the Imperial Mech Academy on the deathworld Vidako to get revenge — the only path available to the son of a silk-worker who needs the academy's enhancements just to pilot a mech. First he must survive disagreeable roommates, hazing from upperclassmen, the friendship of an imperial princess, and the steaming jungles of Vidako. But the Imperium Stellarum will need every good pilot it can get — because empires are built on a foundation of blood, and the sins of the first emperors are about to come due. Lost fleets lurk on the edge of known space, the ruins of ancient races are spread across long-dead worlds, and enemies thought defeated are gathering their strength once more.

Lysanthia, the strongest Demon Queen, spent centuries trying to die — not because she wanted death, but because it was the only way to break her chains. Her reincarnation spell worked, mostly. She woke in a forest nearly a thousand years in the future, in a body not quite hers, stripped of her overwhelming power. A world without a System. Without Classes. Without the Gods watching her every step. Her reincarnation is complicated by the presence of Ash, the Hero who slew her. Thrust into a world almost completely alien yet somehow recognizable — where power is etched in Ink — she must start from nothing. And for the first time in eons, some people show her kindness for no reason at all. That might be harder than starting over.

When life ends, many believe a soul is judged — warriors go to Valhalla, saints to heaven, and evil-doers to hell. But what about someone who doesn't fall into any of those categories? Some of them end up reincarnated as a tiny snake. This is the story of one such soul: a winding path through a fantasy world toward something like existential redemption, told with comedy and heart.

As he begins to study the art of Mana Threads and develops a revolutionary new magic system with Spell Circles, mastery of magic becomes his route to power. But with the world's governments struggling to contain the rising number of superhuman threats, Alex will have to navigate more than just monsters, magic, and Rifts. In a world where might makes right, who really calls the shots?
