Forty-year-old project manager Tori Felix was scrolling through a wiki article about a dating sim on the bullet train when everything went wrong. She woke up in the bruised teenage body of Victoria de Guevera — the villainess of the popular game "The Romance of Soleil" — with a splitting headache and a very bad prognosis: according to the wiki, Victoria dies violently at the hands of sex slavers. With only weeks before the heroine and villainess collide, there is no time for an existential crisis. Tori's personal mantra has always been "assess the situation, then make a plan of action" — and she intends to use it.

For Joshua Still, Skills were the lifeblood of his business. He wanted to understand them, collect many of them, and teach a few — which was a problem, because his profession of Skill Trainer was perfectly legal but deeply frowned upon. After all, it wouldn't do for a non-tailor to teach Tailoring, according to every Guild with enough money and clout to complain. Still, Skill Trainers provide a valuable service, and Joshua has managed to keep his research and training practice quietly under the table, aided by many a bribe. But his quiet, anonymous life is about to change — when the Baron demands you pay him a visit, you have little choice.

Henry and Jason led normal lives in Seattle before they were abducted to another world by the vain, self-styled god Dolos, who refuses to send them back unless they complete an impossible task — and who oddly doesn't seem to care if they succeed or not. Luckily, the two studied Historical European Martial Arts on Earth. But a Japanese American EMT and a geeky IT programmer don't have many useful skills on a sword-and-sorcery world like Ludus. Stranded in the middle of nowhere with only magic-granting orbs from an apathetic god, they begin their insane adventure — though basic survival and paying rent will have to take priority.

Sael the Great helped defeat the Corrupted One four hundred years ago, ushering in the longest era of peace the world has ever known. Since then, most of his companions have died, the world moved on, and Sael retreated to a cloud in the sky — thought dead by all but a few, fading into legend. Until a young woman named Ilsa, a descendant of one of his earliest companions, comes looking for him. Whispers from the West speak of settlements vanishing overnight, swallowed by a creeping entity that even the mages cannot explain. The stories sound familiar — echoes of an evil Sael thought gone forever. To investigate, he'll need to traverse lands that have forgotten his face, dodge the cults that formed around his legend, and perhaps train a student or two — remembering that life has much more to offer than smoking on a cloud and longing.

Coming off humanity's first multi-planet war, the Inner Dolcir Coalition barely survived — thanks in large part to Earth. Rhidi, a Kafya and member of the dominant IDC race, served in a specialized force during the war's final phase. With the war over and her mother pressing her toward marriage and children, Rhidi signs up for a joint military training program: a statement to the Humans that IDC members are their equals. The program turns out to be far more than Rhidi bargained for — not only in challenge, but in the freedom she has always craved.

An Arthurian legend, Fae lore, and cultivation mash-up. Taliesin had one plan: escape the Harkley family, dodge their blood curse, and live a quiet life far from trouble. What he got instead was death (briefly), an arranged marriage gone wrong (knives were involved), and a volatile new power — the dreaded death glamour. Armed with his magical lute, a dry sense of humour, and a loyal but chaotic group of Knights, he's determined to carve out a life as a bard in a dangerous world. But political intrigue, ancient prophecies, and a Divine Cultivator conspiracy all come calling. Set in a Europe-based cultivation world where Ki is Glamour and connected to the Fae realm, the story follows a competent but decidedly non-overpowered MC whose progression stems from effort, reflection, and the occasional death.

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.

"Honor is the true measure of a man." On this principle, a powerful emperor built his empire, united disparate lands, and destroyed the greatest threat to his world — then died a warrior's death in battle. But instead of rest, he awoke on the border of a foreign kingdom, in the body of a noble-born outcast, with a noose around his neck. His former greatness may exist only as memory, but give him any backwater farm and he will turn it into a formidable stronghold. His experience, knowledge, and strategy remain intact — and time is pressing. The same creatures that once nearly destroyed his kingdom have infiltrated this new world, and only he knows their nature. A new empire must rise, or this world will fall.

When his latest creation, a zombie hydra-dragon-bear, tries to eat him, he decides it might be time for a less dangerous career. He is a wanted criminal with powerful enemies and a bone to pick with the Everton Council of Mages. Hope arrives in the form of a new law: war is coming to Everton, and the Council is desperate. In exchange for help, Timmy might earn a pardon. To get it, he must assemble a group of unconventional heroes — most of whom want nothing more than to mangle him. His team includes an obnoxious apprentice, a bumbling bureaucrat, and an elf who is basically the bogeyman. Wonderful.

A Star Wars fan wakes up inside the Jedi Temple, 72 BBY — clanmates with Mace Windu, which is objectively awesome. Less awesome: he knows the Order is doomed, the Sith are plotting, and the galaxy is on a countdown to collapse. Now he has to change history without breaking it.

Mo Duan didn't enjoy being taken from his life and waking up in another world. Especially when that world was populated by violent kung-fu wizards and he woke up in another person's body.

Mo Duan must navigate his life as an Elder of the Verdant Valleys Sect, trying his hardest to avoid being killed due to the decisions of his body's previous owner.

Nathan's unique ability to counteract magic gives him an unprecedented edge — making him a beacon of resistance against those who wield it as a weapon of control. Armed with intellect and an emerging power that could dismantle the very foundations of Davrar's society, he emerges not as a student of magic, but as its ultimate adversary: the Antimage.
