How to Heal a Soul

S.Kasper

F18/100
Growing up in an orphanage, Valar never dared to dream of something greater — grand adventures and endless wealth always seemed out of reach. But awakening to his magic far earlier than his peers changes everything. Armed with both life magic and a peculiar fire that burns him as readily as his enemies, Valar sets out to become a healer on his own terms. To do that, he'll need to grow stronger, which means killing beasts, which means adventuring. A slow-burn fantasy series built on a power system rooted in the soul, where ranks mark major milestones rather than endless stat screens, and every cost of pushing past your limits is real — if not always immediately visible.

Technomancer: ReGenesis

earldennison

F18/100
A particle physicist with an eidetic memory is reincarnated into a world where magic is real. Born into the Empire's upper nobility, Ezra Blackfyre quickly learns that power isn't earned by talent alone — it's negotiated through bloodlines, oaths, and brutal politics. As his family is pulled into rising conflicts and assassination games, Ezra must grow stronger fast without becoming a pawn. Armed with modern scientific knowledge and relentless curiosity, he approaches magic like physics — testing, refining, and weaponizing it. To survive, he will build technology, forge new methods of combat, and reshape his domain from the ground up while the Empire's great houses close in around him.

Clonemancy: Ascension Through a Thousand Clones

Lord Malkavian

F17/100
Alistair is on a crusade against an enemy no one man could ever destroy. So he will become many. The Company of Chains took Alistair's freedom, his family, and his future. They expected Ascension to break him the rest of the way. Instead, it granted him a class that should not exist. Alistair can create other bodies — and those bodies can claim classes of their own. While others spend a lifetime mastering a single path, he can walk many. To survive, he must hide what he is, grow stronger, and split himself again and again. To destroy the empire of slavers that made him, strength alone will not be enough. He will need numbers.

Basic Thaumaturgy for the Emotionally Incompetent

D.N. Newyn

F17/100
Fabrisse Kestovar can't conjure grief, can barely levitate a pebble, and once submitted a stanza instead of a spell schematic. He may be the least emotionally competent student in the Order's seven-hundred-year history. Which makes it all the more confusing when an ancient magical relic wakes after forty-seven years of silence, launches itself across a holy sanctum, and crashes into his face. Now bonded to the PRAXIS NODE — a long-dormant, possibly AI-driven interface that delivers cryptic quests, sarcastic prompts, and calibration objectives measured in light-years — Fabrisse gains access to a system only he can see. He has a Legacy Token, no combat thresholds, and a growing collection of rocks the system insists are historically significant.

Reincarnated As a Horny Single-Celled Organism 2 Archmage

DuncanSpice

F16/100
Andy Snodgrass died a virgin on the way to not be one. He woke up as a single-celled organism in a fantasy world with a LitRPG evolution system, and the only way forward is up the skill tree. His first ability choice was a calcium spike — because he always picks the pointy option. He didn't read the fine print. He should have, because that spike carries over through every evolution. As Andy climbs from prokaryote to something far more dangerous, the System seems to be building him toward a purpose — and every new body he inhabits is hornier than the last, in the most literal sense possible. A deadpan MC who argues with the System, a slow-burn romance that starts in the worst possible body, and the nagging question of whether the universe is trolling him or training him.

Secrets and Starships

L.E. Lauri

F16/100
Heath was piloting the Wandering Loon on a cargo run through deep space when a freak astral storm destroyed his plans. Limping into port in a barely-functional ship, every seasoned spacer agrees the smart move is to sell the Loon for parts and start fresh. Heath refuses. Determined to restore the ship and preserve his uncle's legacy, he assembles a new crew and seizes any opportunity — from dabbling with smugglers to supplying frontier explorers — to make it as independent haulers. But life on the Rim demands constant growth: get strong enough to defend themselves or get crushed. And what Heath has inherited may be far more dangerous than just a starship and a dream.

Struggling to understand how to live as a dungeon with a novel set of challenges, he expands through the archaeological layers of his new home. Periods of dungeon engineering and exploration are interspersed with interactions ranging from an invading ground squirrel to the dragon that dominates the island, representatives of the Adventuring Guild, and the Church of the God of All Dungeons.

NANITE

Lord Turtle the first

F16/100
In the fractured sprawl of Virelia — a city of rusted steel, synthetic dreams, and brutal survival — Ray was just another forgotten face: a streetwise courier scraping by with debts and a sick mother. Then came the ambush. Then came death. Then came something else. A mysterious injector of nanites rebuilt him from the inside out, transforming him into a living weapon that can consume machines and minds alike, wear the faces of the dead, wield their skills as his own, and reshape his body into a formidable arsenal. Hunted by the corporations that engineered his power and the gangs that want to rip it from him, Ray fights to protect the few people he still cares about — but each consumed memory pulls him further from who he once was, blurring the line between protector and monster, man and machine.

The Realmbreaker Wars unleashed a thousand world-ending Calamities. One such Calamity decided to become an academy teacher. Ryland is one of the oldest living apocalypses the war produced. Experimenting with dangerous rift magic shattered his body and scattered its pieces across the cosmos — pieces that, when left alone, often turn into new Calamities. Armed with a thousand spell glyphs from a thousand worlds, Ryland sets out to stop more of his blood droplets from becoming mad demigods. To do so he must return to his academy, recover his old research, and teach a few oddball students along the way — all while passing an entrance trial gone haywire, fending off Fate itself, and keeping Calamity-worshipping cults from ruining his club activities.

With his daddy's pistol on his hip and his mama's Spellbook in his pocket, he ventures out in search of fame, fortune, identity, and purpose. A trailblazer by necessity and a lone wolf by nature, Howie explores a world without modern conveniences where the law is a distant echo and monstrous Aberrations run rampant.

Boosted Restart – A new chance in a different world

Teanam

F14/100
Sophia wasn't happy with her life after making some wrong decisions. Introverted and shy to the point it hindered even basic interactions, she felt lonely — unable to talk with women, the only gender she's interested in. When an accident led to the end of the life she hated, an 'overseer of worlds' saved her from death and gave her a second chance in a world where magic exists. He blessed her with boosts to make her life easier — but he didn't stop there. He boosted every emotion and personality trait, positive and negative alike, with results that weren't always reliable. Sophia worked hard to deal with her new, complicated situation while exploring places, learning magic, finding friends, and building a slow, easygoing life in her new world — though her vast powers and lack of common sense made it anything but slow.
