Jeb Trapper tried to kill himself. The gun jammed. Two months later, the veteran is participating in underground trials of ecstasy to treat his PTSD.

When Zareth first realized he had been reborn into a world that ran on video game mechanics, he was ecstatic — he'd expected danger and adventure. Instead, he spent much of his new life on the streets of Tal'Qamar before eventually becoming a Cultist to Cerebon, God of Flesh and Transformation. Being a Cultist to the God of Flesh turned out to be much less exciting than hoped, and Zareth spent most of his time helping rich women smooth their skin. Just when he had given up hope, everything changes when the city enters a period of sharp political turmoil — and Zareth is dragged right into it.

When the System arrived to integrate Earth into the wider cosmos, Kira was in the middle of something. Now she faces an apocalypse she can't quite bring herself to mourn — life as she knew it wasn't something she wanted to continue.

Her affinity turns out to be Time, and time shenanigans, it seems, are just getting started.

Freddy Stern, a twenty-one-year-old cashier, has lived a plain, albeit harsh life. Having been orphaned twice, he's spent the last ten years working and staying out of trouble. His only aspiration is to save enough money to become an archhuman. His dream gets the jump on him when he barely survives a near-death encounter and finds himself with 1% Lifesteal — a bizarre talent with numerous contradictions and just as many uses. With every dead enemy, he becomes a bit stronger, a little wiser, and a lot more ruthless. And no matter how much damage he takes, he can always put himself back together. Physically, at least. But on his path to power, after having to look at the rotting guts of archhuman society again and again, can his talent keep his mind and soul as pristine as his body? Or will that part of him simply remain broken?

Jax is a pretty regular guy with a job he tolerates and a girl he kinda loves — and he fights creatures from the UnderVerse in his sleep, waking covered in horrific scars. When his brother vanishes and five years later Jax is kidnapped as well, his father gives him a stark choice: travel to the UnderVerse in reality, reach the capitol of that ruined realm at the center of existence, and open a portal for the Noble Houses to return home — or die slowly. First, though, he has to survive the arena, where twelve will enter and only one can leave.

Magic was chaos. Now it's chemistry. Through Stoichiomancy, power is measured, quantified, and controlled. Ascension follows a strict ladder, each tier with a fixed number of sanctioned seats. There are no anomalies — until Arielle Blacksoil. Born to a bloodline without magic, Arielle should have been invisible to the system. Instead, an accident reveals the impossible: she's an unsanctioned archmage. If discovered, they'll strip her power or turn her into a weapon. To survive, Arielle enrolls in the Academy and pretends to climb the ranks while hiding magic that eclipses her professors. For the first time in her life she has rivals, teammates — maybe even friends. But hiding overwhelming power isn't easy, and soon she's embroiled in faction conflict, foiling villainous plots, and hunting a mysterious primordial that lurks in the dark.

Corporate flameout Ned Altimer dives into the VRMMO Earthblood Online and never looks back. His advantages are twofold: exclusive access to the game's three-day Head Start period, and a ridiculously handsome talking axe named Frank who knows the game's deepest secrets—if he ever feels like sharing them. But those advantages also make Ned a target. Once the Head Start ends, his fellow players will stop at nothing to rip that suave, violent, disarmingly charismatic axe right out of his hands. In seventy-two hours, the greatest manhunt in gaming history begins.

What would a Xianxia MC do? Seriously, what would they do? Asking for a friend.

On the world of Marconen, your first Break determines the trajectory of your life. Calvin chose magic — and without proper schooling or a mentor, he is dragged by fate across the planet, blending different schools of magic and powerful abilities into something entirely new. A deeper secret hides behind his success: why was he born an exile? Why is his System so strange, and why does it keep talking to him? As time marches on, something evil grows in power across the ocean.

A system message appears worldwide: a Quantum Phase Shift has been selected to "increase habitability." Expected survival rate: 1–5%. Troias Drakos awakens to find that the world he knew is gone. Most of Earth's life was killed in an instant, and those who survived have been granted powers that seem almost magical — though the monsters of this new reality are equally powerful, or far more so. Only by uniting and mastering their new abilities will humanity survive. Troias has been given a unique set of powers. If he is to have any chance, he must master them and become a true Spirit Warrior.

After dying and being reborn into a world built like a video game, Jim finds himself stuck in a very old-fashioned new player zone for low-level adventurers. Unfortunately, the zone fell out of use centuries ago, and no one told the monsters to take it easy. To make matters worse, Jim is the only new player around — and he comes with a literal shoulder demon. Jim has been given an opportunity, and he'll do his best to take advantage of it.

Kaius just wanted to unlock his class — instead, he restarted the apocalypse. After years of training, Kaius has barely acquired the first two of his family's legacy skills: powerful, vanishingly rare abilities whose method of creation is a secret people would kill for. Narrowly surviving a bandit ambush, he gets trapped in the Great Depths — a world-spanning dungeon. To escape, he must slay one of the Guardians defending the exits, a feat no classless fighter has ever survived. If that weren't bad enough, succeeding will reignite a forgotten trial that nearly ended civilization.

Summoned to a fantastical world and granted powers by a broken System, most freshly minted protagonists would get ready for their stats to start climbing.

Discovering forbidden fishing techniques and petting every cute animal in scritching distance? Now that's a good time. Unfortunately, cosmic forces rarely care for mortal feelings. Fischer is hounded by inept cults, conspiring nobles, and more magical misunderstandings than a preteen relationship. Even his dutiful pet crab is firing energy blades like an anime antagonist.

Meanwhile, people back in her own world are reading and commenting on the manga as it updates — so she must always stay in character. With death lurking at every step, Amy must claw her way into the main story by any means necessary: scene-stealing entrances, manufactured drama, a possibly fabricated tragic backstory. Whatever it takes to become a fan favorite before the end of the world arrives.

Sofia isn't too keen on finding out.

There are great powers at work beneath the surface. Follow Sofia as she unknowingly gets tangled in power struggles far beyond what she had bargained for.

Every thousand cycles, the 108 gods select their avatars among the most deserving champions of the galaxy for a grand game to decide who will next bear the crown of archon. This time, even the mightiest tremble — the twin arbiters have entered the fray. Space has chosen Lilth Seranne Kerentis: empress, conqueror, warrior, scholar, an undisputed genius of brawn and magic. Time has chosen Steve, a 25-year-old cello player from London.
