Burning Starlight

Ryan Stennet

D37/100
Retirement was supposed to be simple: a quiet apartment near the Saginaw River, maybe a hobby or two. Blake Connover survived decades of military and mercenary work to earn that peace. It lasted two weeks. When a mysterious wormhole tears open above the river and drags Blake into the unknown, retirement becomes the least of his worries. Stranded on an alien world and fused with an advanced bio-tech suit he barely understands, Blake has to adapt fast. The suit's real owners want it back, the locals aren't exactly friendly, and the universe is a lot bigger — and stranger — than he ever imagined. From haunted starships to cosmic cultivation, his retirement plan is officially out the window.

Goblin Summoner

Tracy Gregory

D37/100
When an accident claims his life, Gareth finds himself reborn on Acamida — a world where sorcerers draw magical power from a deck of cards, summoning monsters and flinging spells. It's just a shame he's found himself with the weakest cards around: goblins. Joined by a fallen goddess, a deposed demon king, and a surly local, Gareth sets out into a realm where experience points and levels are very real. As he finds new cards and grows in power, the rumbles of war stir in the west — and if he's going to survive, he'll need to master his deck and find the strength hidden within his goblin allies.

Peasant Farmer to Emperor Mage

JustKidding

D37/100
Jacob is, by his own parents' estimation, a waste of a human. He flunked out of college, can't hold a job, and is approaching thirty with nothing to show for it.

Reborn as the son of peasant farmers in the world of Meldra, Jacob uses his knowledge of modern agriculture and a touch of magic to turn his humble origins around. What begins as a slice-of-life story of survival and farming gradually opens into a broader magical adventure as the world's system comes into full focus.

Nullform

Dem Mikhailov

D36/100
In this world, everyone arrives with no memory of their past life and no limbs — everything is rented, and payment is due daily. The System assigns tasks; fail to complete them and you're fined and stripped of everything. Blind spots in the System's surveillance hide brutal, lawless violence. You are assigned a number. You are a volitional Nullform. Adapt, survive, and climb — or be swallowed by the endless pit of debt. This world will not take pity on you.

Passive Aggressive

N Conceivable

D36/100
A meth lab, a rift, and an alien invasion that goes sideways — humanity repels the attack and immediately launches its own counter-conquest into the invaders' realm. Liam has had a rough life and sees this as his one chance to make something of himself. To maximize his gains, he accepts a brutal trade-off: no offensive powers, no weapons, not even a thrown punch. In exchange, he receives passive abilities that could make him unstoppable — if he survives long enough to use them. The Gold Rush 2.0 is on, the competition is murderous, and Liam's only edge is learning to turn passivity into dominance.

As Earth closes in on its end, Ashton, armed with nothing but the knowledge forced upon him, becomes a Summoner.

God Of Velmoryn

Winged Sage

D36/100
One moment I was a nobody — a freelance web developer with a failed law degree and a cat who barely tolerated me. The next, I woke up floating in the void, staring at a glowing blue screen informing me I was now a god. A weak, insignificant one, but a god nonetheless. No instructions. No divine wisdom. Just me, a barren status window, and an empty faith with no followers. So I destroyed the last statue of the velmoryn goddess: if I was going to be a god, I needed worshippers, and a little divine intervention seemed like the right place to start. Now I have a broken and lost tribe looking for answers, a system I don't understand, and a world that won't take kindly to a new deity on the rise.
