Superheroes and Magic Invasions

Belial666

C57/100
In the town of Destiny, Florida, magic portals open and spew out undead horrors. A few lucky survivors discover that killing the invaders grants magic powers following familiar game and comic-book tropes. For Maya Wennefer, that's only the beginning of her problems. Invaders from another world, ordinary people discovering easier paths to power, and the government's reaction to the new reality — surviving all of it is hard enough, let alone becoming a superhero. As chaos spreads and stronger monsters appear, human greed may yet prove more dangerous than any invader.

The Last Legend Reborn

Borgy60

C57/100
Rodric Vale spent sixty years as the world's greatest hero. He answered every summons, fought every war, saved every kingdom that asked.

He never explored the places he wanted to see. He was everyone's sword, and he died tired. Then he wakes up at the summoning circle. Young again. Level 1 again. This time, he's not being anyone's hero.

Risha: Goblin Empress

Corwin Benedict

C57/100
Born the smallest and weakest of goblins, Risha worked hard to stay alive. A servant to the orc overseers and an evolution away from becoming that which she hated, she never gave up — hunting her own food and overcoming every obstacle in her path. Thrown into a pit and left to the mercy of orc warbeasts, Risha should have died. Instead she survived, only to disappoint her overseer by refusing to evolve into an orc. When Risha refused evolution, the System took notice. There was more to Risha than met the eye, and when her opportunity came, she seized it.

Hoqalo: The Broken System

MarekSusicky

C57/100
Dash's great-grandfather was one of the Fifteen who saved humanity during the System Apocalypse, founding the corporations that now rule the solar system. That legacy should have been his — until his father was destroyed by corpo politics, leaving Dash with nothing but a single building on Earth 2.0. When Dash nearly dies, a broken System manifests: barely functional, stripped to the bones, but carrying the tinkerer's trait Hoqalo — letting him forge gear that punches far above its tier. The more he digs into why his System came out wrong, the more it looks like sabotage. Someone with corporate reach wanted the Kallum bloodline to stay down. With his hands, his tools, and friends willing to go to corpo hell and back, Dash sets out to steal his future back — with interest.

A man trained to hunt in the skies above barren ash-lands must now become the last protector of the perfect garden below. A soldier with as much blood on his hands as engine grease must find a way to live alongside a peaceful forest dryad — the tree's sole caretaker — as the invasion waves grow stronger with each passing cycle. As one nation after another falls, a transmigrated war pilot flying an experimental combat aircraft may be the only hope left for the world's many races, the sacred tree, and the peace-loving dryad who tends it.

Forced into a brutal wave dungeon with no warning, no tutorial, and no gear, Layton accidentally locks himself into the weakest class — Healer. That's when things start feeling off.

Lunatic Sword

RabZ YT

C56/100
Some live by the sword — Alex is imprisoned by it. Not that he's complaining; he likes swords. In a world of swords and sorcery, some are born with divine blessings that lead them to challenge the heavens, while others are punished by fate and forced into suffering. For Alex, it's all irrelevant. As long as he has his sword, every tragedy is a joy and every obstacle is just more time to polish his blade. There's nothing that can't be solved with a good sword cut — unless the enemy is a ghost, in which case he'll need a church. A battle-focused progression story with a sword-obsessed protagonist whose genius is strictly limited to swordsmanship.

Goblin Teeth: A Monster Party LitRPG

JimQuill

C56/100
Daggat was born different — a variant monster with a random gift to shape his fate. After faking his death, he sets out on a relentless quest for freedom, power, and a place to call his own. With a mind sharper than steel, a gaze that bends wills, and a tyrant's instinct for control, he gathers a band of outcasts: a savage warrior sibling, a cunning rogue sibling, a cursed and forgotten spider from the attic, a worm with the soul of a dragon, and the last ogre of a shattered family. Each carries their own scars — physical, spiritual, emotional. Together they will claw, scheme, and fight through a world that wants them dead, forging an adventuring party that seeks not just riches and glory, but the power to decide their own fates.

Then that dream was stolen from him. Offered only pitiful classes, Adam rejects them all and becomes a weak, worthless Unclassed. His one advantage: a unique inventory skill called Hoard, which lets him store and combine items, skills, and even power — assuming he's willing to fight for them. Adam has five years until his next selection, and plans to grow so strong that the class of his dreams becomes a laughable step down. His first step: joining the Rift Delving Association. His next: entering hell.

When he hears of a new magic item called a Virmo that projects one's mind into a grand-scale game, he dispatches a minion to acquire one. He logs into a game set in a world that runs on the twin magics of "science" and "technology," and embarks on a new journey as Bob, the Level 1 Human with no class.

Starblood

Roman Prokofiev, Sofia Shcherbakova

C56/100
When the ark began emergency jettisoning colonists, one got unlucky three times: his capsule was shot down above a forbidden Circle, crashed next to the White Devil's tomb, and he climbed into a wounded noxwolf's lair and discovered Starblood. Other Ascendants would call it good fortune — but had he left it alone, he might have remained a normal person. Now someone with a Slate, Attributes, and Runes isn't a typical colonist from Earth in a world that's far from ordinary — especially when he has a voice in his head. A spinoff set in the same universe as Project Stellar, Starblood follows those who escaped Earth's catastrophe into deep space.

Shaman's Call

Sean Oswald

C56/100
Frank never planned for the afterlife — he didn't even believe in one, certainly not one controlled by an AI. After failing to read the small print in his contract, he finds himself stuck in a new world as an ogre shaman. The AI's System commands this world, and Frank is at its mercy. The ogres think Frank is some kind of messiah; the humans think he's just XP walking. All Frank wants is to make the best of his strange new reality and find someone worth talking to. Instead he finds himself caught between powers far beyond him in a struggle for the fate of not just one world — and his suspicions that it's no game at all grow with every step.
