The Crappy Zero-Star Therapist in a Parallel Dimension

Meet the worst therapist on Earth. He drinks cheap whiskey, aggressively insults his patients, and boasts a bulletproof zero-star rating online. He doesn't want to heal you; he just wants your hourly rate so he can pay his rent. But when a routine session with a weeping middle-manager abruptly turns into a telekinetic meltdown, he realizes that he is in a parallel dimension that is basically a psychological hazard zone. Welcome to a world where unresolved trauma literally gives you superpowers. The citizens here are walking, superpowered powder kegs, relying on their fractured "Egos" to cast fire, bend gravity, and level city blocks. The catch? If their mental health deteriorates, they burn out, and become food for interdimensional monsters hungry for negative energy. In a society entirely populated by emotionally unstable, heavily armed psychopaths, a guy who actually understands the DSM-5 is the ultimate mechanic. But our protagonist didn't get a superpower. He got something infinitely better: absolute, soul-crushing apathy. Because he is so fundamentally cynical and completely dead inside, he leaves zero psychological footprint. Psychic detectives can't track him. The trauma-eating monsters think he has the nutritional value of a cardboard box. He is the ultimate anomaly—a ghost in a city of glowing targets. Well, a ghost with one massive headache. Because his transition to this world woke up his subconscious "Alter"—a sickeningly sweet, overly empathetic Beverly Hills life coach who now lives rent-free in his head and refuses to shut up. Stranded in a dystopia where nobody remembers him and a militarized anomaly task force is hunting his shadow, he has only one goal: find a decent cup of coffee and extort these superpowered lunatics for everything they’re worth. Heroes save the world. He just bills it out-of-network.

Fractured Herald: Reign of Broken Classes

In the year 2000 the sky broke open. The world was never the same. Big cracks called Violet fractures opened up over the world making holes in reality that people started calling Gates. Monsters came out of those Gates. The world fell apart because of those monsters.. After that something strange happened that no government or army could have planned. The System showed up. It appeared to every person on earth without warning, offering classes and abilities that seemed to be just for them. Thirty years went by. The world got rebuilt around the System. New countries formed. Special schools called Academies were made to teach the group of people who used the System called Players. Groups of people watched the Gates. Mapped out all the connections between worlds. People did what they always do. They made rules to deal with something they did not fully understand. People never really understood the Gates. They just learned to control them a little. Fractured Herald: Reign of Broken Classes is about Owen Walker. He is a sixteen year boy from the city of Varen in the country of Atheios. Owen Walker has not been given any class or abilities by the System and he is running out of time. Owen Walker exists on the outside of a world that's all about the System, which has never given Owen Walker any answers. As the time for Owen Walker to get his class and abilities gets closer strange things start to happen around Owen Walker. Gates are acting weird and the connections between worlds are doing things that thirty years of information say are not possible. Something is changing the way the worlds are connected on purpose.. For some reason Owen Walker is right, in the middle of it.
