Reincarnator Raised By Dragons

BlaiseCorvin

C47/100
Kevin has lived multiple lives, and all of them were difficult or traumatic — even his first life on Earth involved portals and monster attacks. Now he's living a new life on a beautiful fantasy world, raised by the best adoptive parents imaginable: dragons. He is a Champion of a goddess, born a goblin, and raised in a dragon's cave for two peaceful decades of study and rest. But when his adoptive parents ask him to undertake an important task that dragons cannot do themselves, Kevin isn't surprised — he's excited. He's been curious to explore this new world. And more than anything, he still holds out hope of finally finding magic he can truly learn.

Vebyast

C46/100

The Foundation of Smoke and Steel

JCAnderson2025

C46/100
I woke up in another man's body on the day of his arranged marriage to the most terrifying woman in the Kingdom. He was supposed to die — and the worst part is he already did, because he's still here, in my head. Bitter. Brilliant. Watching me relive every mistake he made in a life that ended with betrayal, heartbreak, and murder. But I'm not Ethan Zhou. I'm a systems engineer with a background in strategy, survival, and zero interest in playing by the rules of a cultivation world obsessed with bloodlines, legacies, and face. Together — whether we like it or not — we build something better. I'll play the quiet husband, the loyal son-in-law. Until it's time to rewrite the foundation beneath the empire's feet.

Ebony's Fable

Ever Frost

C46/100
Ebony never faced any real problem in life. He could see his entire future mapped out — graduate, stable job, family, old age. Boring, but certain. Then, on the way back from a job interview, he found himself in a forest. Freezing. A metre-tall boar charging straight at him. Not ideal for someone whose years of training had always felt purposeless in the modern world. Transported to a world of swords and magic, Ebony must figure out how to survive — and what kind of person he wants to become — in a place where his instincts might finally have some use.

Merchant Crab

H0st

C46/100
Balthazar was just a random giant crab enjoying his life in a fantasy world full of bothersome human adventurers — until he accidentally discovered the secret of attributes and levels. And also pie. With baked goods and coin as his new life goals, he turns to the competitive business of trading the random junk adventurers loot every day. Balthazar will do everything to find a baker, except leave his pond, because exploring the dangerous world out there is for suckers. Meanwhile, adventurers just can't seem to stop dying around his home, and he keeps making great new friends by simply buying them.

A Dirge for the Sun

Svaldyr

C46/100
After eight years of leading her guild in endless PvP conflict in her favorite dark fantasy MMO, shut-in Ai Kanbara finally felt ready to face reality — only to transmigrate into the game world as her max-level character. But the world has moved on. The artificial God-Engine she built to banish the darkness has developed a critical flaw, her guildmates are either missing or deified as the patron gods of a crumbling empire, and a message from her oldest friend reveals a terrible truth: they were betrayed by one of their own. To uncover the fates of her guildmates and push back against the tyrannies of the Republic ruling in her character's name, Ai must become her legend in truth. Accompanied by her loyal lizard-dog and new companions, she begins a journey across a vibrant world of brutal stakes and deep human connection.

System of Nil

Tim Paulson

C46/100
Nathan Cheng, known as Nil, is a game developer with four consecutive game jam wins — but a gaping hole in his heart from his sister's untimely murder. When he wakes up in an arcane world with a familiar System, he's given one mission: defeat the dark king, or die. Success means returning home on the day before his sister was killed. Only Nil's knowledge of the System — and his perfect memory — can let him advance fast enough to avoid being overwhelmed. The mechanics are far more complex than they appear, with thousands of hidden secrets waiting to be exploited. It'll take more than just brains. He'll need a mountain of grit and guts.

She'll still find a way home. Or so she thought, until the boy turns out to be a Prince, and his father wants him back at the Palace.

Yosarian

C46/100
The gods have been known, in times of great need, to summon a hero from another world — mighty warriors to fight as their champion and save the world from darkness.

Ogre Tyrant

Blind_Watcher

C46/100
Tim wakes up naked and alone in a fantasy world that has officially labeled him an Ogre. Before he can get his bearings, he is enslaved and put to work killing other monsters for his new masters. Kindhearted and used to being pushed around, Tim must find his spine and turn the tables on a world that would see him dead or in chains. The story follows slow-burn progression, with GameLit elements that taper off as Tim begins to internalize the system rather than read its text boxes.

Dedicated his whole life to becoming the next Guardian of the Empire, the protagonist became the youngest of the Genius rank — striking fear into the hearts of his enemies. But evidently, that wasn't enough. His real journey only began when he lost everyone dear to him and used a secret Guardian technique to travel one day back in time to get revenge on those responsible. Only now it seems he's gone back much further than one day, and there are many more culprits to tackle than he expected.

The Factory Must Grow - Book 3: The Wheels Must Turn

NorskDaedalus

C46/100
Constructing a portal is a monumental undertaking, yet the Forerunners have guided dozens of civilizations to that end and know exactly what is needed: thousands of laborers, hundreds of brilliant artisans, dozens of powerful mages. As the culmination of years of work, they tear a hole in the fabric between realities and travel between worlds. There is simply no reasonable way for only five people — prepared for a standard Isekai scenario yet now stranded on a hostile and alien world where mere survival is a challenge — to ever build a portal. But reasonable people don't become Forerunners.
