I Don't Want to be the Hive Queen

ValetheHowl

He woke up in the body of a weak, strange creature in a fantasy world full of deadly monsters. Now Marcus must find a way to survive as a Vex Queen.

Truthful Transmigration

Halosty

F23/100
John Miller was a fairly normal young man, working hard to support a family that had run into many financial difficulties. His unexpected death ends his difficult but mundane life — and he wakes up alive, but not himself. Fortkran Tenebach was the young master of a cultivation clan in another world. John barely knows anything about cultivation, but he must make his way with the memories of his new body. His new family isn't as close as his old one was, yet he can't help but want to be honest with them. Certain they've noticed his sudden change in personality, he confesses what happened — a move he expects to be fatal. Quite surprisingly, his family breathes a collective sigh of relief that the old Fortkran is dead. This leaves John to take over his duties, including cultivation, though he has to start from the beginning and isn't sure he won't make some massive mistake.

Bob the Walking Bank - A Monster Evolution Lit-RPG

Absurdist Ape

F22/100
Investment Banker Robert Stadler was not a happy man — cheating wife, estranged family, soul-crushing work. During a drunken night grieving all of the above, he was given the opportunity of a lifetime via speeding box-truck. Non-refundable. The new start was not as a human being. Now an F-ranked monster — a Lesser Mimic — trapped in an alien dungeon and very much at the bottom of the food chain, Bob must survive a world where his species demands an ever-more-obscene amount of treasure to evolve. His solution: teach the locals how to make their money work for them. It's time to make way for the capitalist revolution.

The Apprentice of Ouroboros

Magius Swiftscale

F22/100
Hated by humans. Hunted by monsters. Neska will prove that strength comes from more than defeating foes. Neska Aksen knew early on she was different from other snakes — spending her days giving mice big hugs and reading her witch's tomes in a rustic potion shop. A test ritual unlocked her Interface, revealing that she had a prior life as a human, and the power of Classes and monsters. Her power is unprecedented, but the monsters who fear the Awakened soon learn of her and her witch, forcing her to flee toward Rivilat Academy of the Awakened. With little to go on but steadfast determination and powers from both halves of her soul, Neska must find allies and gather power to survive — and decide what direction her own soul pulls her toward: humanity, or those they're supposed to be fighting against.

Warlock Chronicles

Victor Alucard

F22/100
Dan used to work at a Psychic Agency, making a living by swindling naive clients — until a group of thugs paid him a visit and the world decided it had had enough of humanity. Those who survived the Apocalypse were forced to fight for their lives. Dan didn't become the gray-bearded wizard he'd always hoped to be. Instead, he was forced to start his new life from the very beginning — in the primordial waters, full of algae and unicellular organisms. The goal: evolve and reach the land. Perhaps he should have paid more attention in biology class.

Fate Unraveled

Rustpen

F21/100
Haoyujin Jieyuan was born for greatness — of that, if nothing else, he's certain. In a ruthless world where power is everything and might makes right, there's only one path he can take, no matter how painful it promises to be. When Jieyuan joins the Gleaming Stone Sect, he does so intending to outstrip everyone else and quickly ascend through the ranks. Instead, he ends up in third place in the entrance trials, grossly overshadowed. He remains undeterred — until he mysteriously regains memories of a previous life after a failed assassination attempt. Realizing there's something big going on beneath the surface of the world, Jieyuan reevaluates his priorities and sets his sights much farther. Setting down this path might mean pitting himself against Fate itself, but nothing ventured is nothing gained.

Blighted: A Plague Rat's Tale

Notsae

F21/100
Waking up as a reviled vector of plague, a nihilistic, power-hungry sociopath attempts to free themselves from the shackles of mortality and time. In a world racked with war, crime, and unfocused violence — partially fueled by a system that encourages random acts of senseless violence — one little rat seeks to murder his way to the top of the food chain. Betrayal, mass murder, war, a curse from the dead gods, unfettered magical experimentation, slavery, rampaging monsters, and a raging holy war have rendered this world a violent hellhole: perfect for a violent opportunist to thrive in.

This Necromancer Raised Civilization Instead Of The Dead

Bimbanana

F20/100
In a world of magic and dragons, humanity's greatest hope is the Summoned Heroes. The Church of the Goddess, the only institution capable of performing the summoning ritual, made a catalogue — different tiers, different classes, different budgets. Because even the poor deserve their own personal hero. Unfortunately, one budget-conscious kingdom got Theo: a professional séance scammer and a necromancer who couldn't control the dead. So they threw him away. What no one knows is that Theo can summon the dead — but his System only lets him call souls from Earth. From Archimedes to Nikola Tesla, Julius Caesar to George Patton, Leonardo da Vinci to Steve Jobs. Men who shaped civilizations, now answering to a scammer. A kingdom forged from Earth's greatest minds to devour other kingdoms — and perhaps even the Goddess herself. There is just one problem: right next door lies the Demon Kingdom, and it has been waiting.

Not Me Either

F17/100
A disgraced noble son — shunned by his family and sent to the middle of nowhere, unable to cure the circumstances of his birth — made a desperate choice: consorting with demons and participating in a ritual at the urging of his only friend. It killed him. Now someone else is occupying his body. The ritual had an unintended side effect: it turned the body into a vampire. The new inhabitant must navigate survival (no daytime strolls, no starving, no hunters), political intrigue, and the immediate problem of explaining the ritual — all while keeping their soul intact and slowly building a circle of allies who know the truth.

C.J. Thompson

F17/100
Reborn in another world of magic and flying ships, Det only wants one thing — to leave. For twenty years he has lived on one of the many pillars emerging from a deadly sea of mist, suffering the abuse of locals who accuse him, as a ReSouled, of hijacking the body of an unborn child. Not that he gives a damn what they think. From the moment he found himself reborn in a superhuman body with the magic to bring ink-wash paintings to life, he has had one focus: to get home to the wife and daughter he left behind on Earth. Now the fabled Mistguard — an organization of ReSouled like him — are coming to recruit him. With magic and resources far beyond what is available to him now, the answer to getting home could finally be within reach. To succeed, he will need to excel in an academy of legendary difficulty, master his power, and survive the threat that brought ReSouled to this world in the first place.

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.
