Late 21st-century Earth is overcrowded and resource-depleted. A crew of ten humans are sent to Mars aboard Hyperion I to establish the first colony. Just as they are about to descend to the surface, a careless accident kills a crew member and damages the ship, forcing the others to launch early. On day one they learn that magic is real, and that the planet — in fact the entire galaxy — is governed by a complicated and merciless System. Their assimilation into the System makes them enemies of the paranoid powers that be on Earth, cutting them off from all communications and resupply. On their own on a mostly dead world, nearly every form of life they encounter is out to kill them.

Jason had thought about punching a Shil'vati. Who hadn't? Not only had the aliens conquered Earth with almost trivial ease, the seven-foot purple amazons also had the audacity to start running the planet better than humanity ever had. He'd never actually do it — he was a reasonable guy, just trying to get by under his new feminine overlords. Wasn't he?

Commander Kronos was not considered human — he was a weapon, grown in a tube to be the perfect soldier for his species. When he experienced genuine emotion for the first time, humanity eliminated him. He was reborn into a world of swords and sorcery as Kaladin Shadowheart, a dark elf, and given a second lease on life he initially refused to accept. It took a near-death experience and hard-won growth, but Kaladin finally committed to honoring a promise to his former comrades: to give this new life an honest try. A reincarnation progression story focused less on power fantasy and more on a former weapon learning what it means to be a person.

He died nine months from today — the day Fortress ENE, his home and one of the few safe cities left in North America, was overrun by a million monsters pouring from the same portals humanity had been exploiting for years. Now he has nine months to find out who engineered the breach, which corporation stands to gain, and who is pulling the levers of power to burn his home down. His assets: a shitty apartment on the outskirts, a job interview in the morning, an obese cat named Mister Couchtop — and the ability to set Save points and Reload to them as often as he wants, reliving days or minutes over and over until he gets everything just right. Yeah. He can do this.

In the year 2252, Axel Garcia woke up early, ready to enter the next phase of his life. He has since concluded that he should have slept in. In a cyberpunk world where humanity has been pushed into futuristic fortified cities to survive against monsters, Axel navigates a life of slice-of-life moments, monster killing, and trying to do good in a world fraught with greed.

Faced with a choice between the dead-end life he's been living and a possibility of greatness, Sean has to decide if he's willing to risk everything for a chance to save Earth itself.

But what if you were dropped into a universe you really don't want to be in, with powers that attract a cult of child kidnappers at best? A Star Wars: The Old Republic self-insert following the Sith Warrior storyline, where knowledge is power — but power through knowledge alone may not be enough to survive.

Raika used to be a cultivator — living in a sect, fighting in tournaments, defying the heavens as cultivators do. She was never the strongest or wisest, but she never gave up and always stood by her ideals. Then an Imperial Cultivator destroyed her soul organs and left her crippled. In a world ruled by a millennia-old Emperor and his Blades, where enslaved Daemons serve as weapons of mass destruction and eldritch entities roam at the edges of reality, Raika is now less than worthless.

Embarking on a strange new path, she will abandon humanity, sanity, and the rule of the Empire to become something far stranger and more powerful than she ever imagined. A story of slow-burn progression, expansive worldbuilding, and a protagonist who keeps transforming — body, mind, and soul — until she is truly free.

When Caden dies in an accidental fall, he is merged with a dungeon core in another world. He's not particularly happy to be dead, so resurrection in any form isn't too bad. The real problem? The dungeon core wasn't dead, and he has to share mind-space with it. That doesn't even account for the powerful wizard who is understandably reluctant to let a dungeon escape. And even once he manages to escape, he must found and manage a dungeon in a location fraught with complications: it sits on the border of two rival human nations, a sentient plant race claims the ground as sacred, and teams of adventurers keep wandering in looking for a living. Through it all, Caden is determined not to lose his humanity and become just another murder-hobo dungeon.

The Dragons have been slain, the Giants pacified, the Elves have retreated to the old growth forests, and the Dwarven forges have gone cold. Magic fled from the world as the Empire of Man rose supreme on the strength of technology — until Essence ignites, filling the world with the old powers of myth and legend.
