In a world where Bloodmarks define status, power, and destiny, Dominic was publicly branded a failure during the Awakening Ceremony. The Mark Registry dismissed him. The crowd mocked him. But they were wrong. What awakened within Dominic was not a failed Bloodmark, but a "Seed". A rare, ancient anomaly that does not grant power on its own, but attracts it. When Dominic falls into the Labyrinth by accident, forgotten Signatures which is fragments of ancient spirits, begin to resonate with him. While others struggle to bind a single Sigil, Dominic draws them effortlessly, consuming almost no Ether. His so-called weakness becomes a terrifying advantage. As he enters the Academy built atop the sealed Labyrinth, Dominic is thrust into a world of research expeditions, political conspiracies, and forbidden Sigil-Binding experiments. Alongside a brilliant but secretive researcher, new allies, and dangerous rivals, he uncovers a truth the Scarlet Council has buried for centuries: The Labyrinth is not just an ancient structure buried underground, it is, in fact, a womb. Hunted by hidden factions, watched by Archetypes, and betrayed by those closest to power, Dominic must grow stronger step by step through combat, cultivation, and forbidden knowledge.

Damen Dark is an unfortunate orphan trapped in a cruel household, forced to endure the abuse of his uncle, his family, and a world that seems determined to break him. One ordinary day, he receives a mysterious link on his phone advertising a new app—DemCoin, a cryptocurrency mining program. Damen knows it’s probably a scam. But curiosity gets the better of him. At first, the app seems harmless. It “mines” coins by targeting living beings—stray animals… and people. With little expectation, Damen uses it as a private outlet for his bottled-up anger, siphoning coins from those who torment him: his family, his classmates, the bullies who rule the streets. It feels like justice. It feels good. But DemCoin is far more than a mining app. As Damen accumulates enough coins, hidden features unlock—features that allow him to target individuals and steal their powers. What begins as survival turns into temptation, and temptation into transformation. With every stolen ability, Damen grows stronger… and more dangerous. Now faced with unimaginable power, Damen must choose who he will become. Will he take revenge on a world that never showed him mercy, or rise as a hero to protect it? The truth lies somewhere in between. In a cruel twist of fate, Damen soon realizes the irony of power: the stronger he becomes, the greater the threats that hunt him. And worse still, DemCoin is not just a tool—it is a force, subtly guiding his path. Whether he knows it or not, the app isn’t shaping him into a savior. It is forging a supervillain. And Damen Dark may have no choice but to become exactly that.

Liam gave his life in a way that people will remember—a heroic plunge into icy waters to save a drowning child. But instead of meeting michael at the gates or his brother lucifer in the darkness, he woke up in a new, infinitely more complicated reality: the Marvel Multiverse. Not only that, but he was reborn as Logan/Wolverine, complete with the Adamantium skeleton, a dangerous healing factor, and the uncontrollable rage that comes with it. The reality he landed in is a confusing blend of various Marvel continuities—a mix of X-Men: Evolution, classic Comics, and the darker elements of the Fox movies. This volatile cocktail means the threats are unknown, the timeline is murky, and his iconic new powers are less of a gift and more of a ticking time bomb. With tragic memories of Wolverine's past, little control over the berserker state, and a target painted on his Adamantium-laced back, Liam's second chance at life is looking a lot like a struggle for survival. Thus begins Liam/Logan's journey to navigate a world that wants to weaponize him, an identity he can't escape, and powers that constantly threaten to consume him. He will have to learn, adapt, and fight—or risk losing himself entirely to the animal inside. Oh but he got a system !! _________________________________________________________________________________________________ Before you ask: MC's Control: Liam has limited initial control over Logan’s powers and none over the berserker state. He has to learn to use them from the ground up and deal with the pain brought every time he uses his claws MC's Appearence: The MC doesn't look like the rugged, short and frankly ugly though charming logan from comics. But like Hugh Jackman who played him in the X-men live actions films. The Powers: The healing factor is active, but it takes time to recover from severe damage, especially as he learns to utilize it. The system: His system allows him to level up different parts of himself strength, intellegence, endurance ect. But also the vibranium metal coating his skeleton and his mutation factor. Oh and a bonus is that he can unlock templates of different versions of wolverine across different timelines and different roles played by hugh jackman across his career, as well as acquire different items and infuse them into himself. The World: Expect plenty of Mutant political intrigue and unknown comic-canon events. A Final Warning: DON'T COMPARE REAL LIFE TO A FANFIC AND THEN ARGUE.

Everyone is changing classes and moving up their ranks like crazy. Some people become wizards in their first transformation, while others become professional thunder warriors in their second transformation. But Ling Zhan did the opposite. First, he chose a non-professional class and added the blue bar to all attribute points. “It's crazy. I don't have a class. All I have are low-level skills before I change classes. How can I fight in the later stages? What's the use of the blue bars? It can't increase combat effectiveness. It's really funny...” However, when the battle occurs, Level 3 Thunder Warrior: “I'm shocked, non-professionals are so strong?” A certain third-level Elf Queen: “Infinite blue bars, invincible in one-on-one combat, No. 1 in team battles, how can we fight like this?”
