The Swirl of the Root, also known as the Root, the Akashic Records, or occasionally, Heaven, record, and source all events and phenomena in the universe. Many seek it. Very few reach it. To reach it is a one-way trip. Annihilation or Apotheosis? From a moral perspective, there is no difference. And there are those who fail or flinch at the last moment. They are called Sorcerers and are given great power. But such power is not easy to master. One can get lost. Wandering in strange places with only a sword for company.

After traveling to the 30th millennium, Caelan thought he would just idle his days away. Little did he expect the Emperor to ask him for parenting advice. "Neoth, they are your sons! How can you, as their father, shirk your responsibilities and leave all the children for me to raise? What kind of father are you?" "Horus, you are the First-Found, the Emperor's favorite son. Why are you coming to me? Stay away from me!" "Perturabo, what are you doing? Put me down! I want to stay with Sanguinius!" "Russ, stop Angron! He's trying to read my mind! What? You say you also want to know who my favorite child is?" "I've told you, I'm not your dad!"

What makes a Superhero or Supervillain powerful in the comics? Is it their powers, special abilities or their skills? What about Space Marines? Is it their masks? Or their helmets...? No. However, that's precisely what gives Flavius his powers. To be precise, he can summon any mask or helmet which will grant him the powers of the ones they belong to. He summons and wears a Space Marine helmet; he gains their power and all their skills. He summons Jason Voorhees' mask; he will become a near-unstoppable revenant. And so on. Waking up in the Grim Dark Future of Warhammer 40k, on the planet Medusa, with this Essence of Many Masks, Augustus will have to cheese his way through hardship, the Inquisition, Chaos forces and the many Xenos. Will he make it out alive?

My only path out of this dystopian hell was to Awaken as a super-powered Solar. I failed. Publicly humiliated and with my future in ruins, a new power ignited within me: The Creator System. My memories of a lost world called Earth—its addictive games, its soul-stirring music, its epic stories—are now my greatest weapon. While the Accord demands obedience, I will give the galaxy a cultural revolution. Every viral hit I create generates Resonance, fueling my secret Gacha and letting me pull real-world skills, gear, and powers straight from the media I remake. They thought I was a powerless failure. They have no idea I'm about to become the most powerful media tycoon in the galaxy, one Gacha pull at a time.

This is an era where heroes emerge in great numbers! This is an era where death and hope exist side by side! This is an era where the old order and the fires of new civilizations collide! What kind of grand epic will be written by the decaying federation, the fanatic empire, the obstinate theocracy, and the stirring foreign races?

The empire encompassed endless twinkling stars, but in this dark and terrifying distant future, there were only endless wars. ...... Gu Hang became the governor of a wasteland planet, where previous governors had all been executed for failing to deliver the tithe on time. Monsters and Low Energy Storms rampaged, survivor factions schemed against each other, technological regression, low productivity, the resurgence of Evil Gods, Green Skin Orcs taking root and sprouting... "Don't panic just yet, let me check the panel below." [Military Tokens], [Heroes], [Technology], [Events]... Starting as the planetary governor, he would build fleets that traversed the Star Sea, suppressing all alien forms, heretics, traitors, and demons of chaos! Although I formed battle groups on my own, funded Battle Nuns, diverted the imperial tax, and disregarded deployment orders... I knew I was fiercely loyal! Traitors? This is clearly the Third Empire!

In the neon of blue and purple, under the thick steel sky, at the forefront of this surge of data, lies the world post-tech revolution. It's also the dividing line between reality and illusion. Steel and flesh, past and future. In this place, the world outside and inside coexist. Everything in front of us feels like a wall of time within reach. The darkness is slowly creeping in.

When the Abyss descended, Earth didn’t just fall—it evolved. ​Beams of darkness fractured the sky, transforming the world into a meat-grinder of nations and monsters. From the cataclysm rose Egoists: humans who awakened Archetypes—shards of their inner demons—to survive the rising tide of Null Creatures. Lucamir Elaric was seen as a defect. ​In a Federation where Egoists are ranked by their "Synchronization" with the Abyss, Luca’s score was a pitiful 5%. To the elite Noble families and the iron-fisted government, he was just another farm boy destined to be fodder—a commoner meant to be chained or consumed by the Null Creatures. That was the world’s mistake. Lucamir’s Synchronization was never 5%. It was 100%. A perfect alignment misread as failure—sealed away as a system error in a world that had not witnessed such a thing in five thousand years. While others lose their sanity to the Abyss, Luca is 100% Immune to Corruption. While others are limited to a single Archetype, Luca possesses All Seven. He isn't just a survivor; he is the biological blueprint for a god. ​Labeled the son of terrorists, hunted by the Federation, and treated as a pawn by the whimsical "21st God," Luca is done surviving. He isn't here to climb the ladder of society. ​He’s here to overwrite the system because in a world where everything is ranked, measured, and controlled—he is the one thing it cannot measure. #HiddenOP. #AntiHero. #GeniusMC. #Ruthless and CalculativeMC. # High-IQ Combat & Biological Warfare. # No Harem. ____ Join the Discord; https://discord.gg/pNGeUe2Fe

Ledea Mace is fifteen years old, a salvager working the asteroid belts at the edge of nowhere. Her partner is her younger sister Shutia — except Shutia is twenty-four, handles the guns, and has never once taken her eyes off her big sister for long. When a crew of raiders shows up to take their haul by force, the two of them improvise their way out of it the only way they know how: together. The aftermath is tea, a too-warm couch, and Shutia saying things that sound almost like a joke. Almost.

In 2138, the world still trembles from the Fracture. Since 2022, "Monsters"—monstrous Wrathborn, godlike Superhumans, and stranger things—have walked among humanity. After the infamous Eldion Institute Massacre, a group of Monsters created Monster Bay, a hidden sanctuary. But humanity struck back. The Helsing Corporations rose, armed with deadly new technology, and the Great Ascension Wars shattered Monster Bay, scattering its survivors and secrets. At the center of every remaining legend lies the Mythical Matrix — an ancient digital scripture said to hold world-ending power and the location of the Garden Behind the Fence: a celestial paradise guarded by an unspeakable terror, where the legendary White-Blue Heart Pillar promises salvation from Monsterization… and perhaps even escape from death itself. Kevin Leister is a brilliant but crippled 15-year-old café drone, drowning in overwork and fear of his own hidden "difference." His quiet life explodes when he accidentally decodes a fragment of the Mythical Matrix in the café’s communication network — a map to the lost Monster Bay. Enter Peter Shotstock — a 30-year-old charismatic, foul-mouthed, battle-hardened ex-soldier with a deep hatred for the Helsing Corporations and a bad habit of shooting first. Dragged into Kevin’s dangerous discovery, the unlikely duo must survive hunter ambushes, ruined cities, and the treacherous politics of remaining Monsters. Together, they chase a legend that could either save the world… or burn it to ash. Powers emerge from "The Shattering," a cataclysmic event eons ago when an ancient, pillar fragmented into countless "Glimmers"—ethereal shards of reality-warping essence that rained across the world and landed on earth. These Glimmers bonded randomly with living beings upon awakening, triggered by personal trauma, near-death, or rare celestial alignments called seals. Humans and animals alike become Wonders, but each receives a distinct power flavored by their biology and psyche: a human's hot headed personality might channel hellfire manipulation, while a cheetah's predatory speed manifests as Movement control that store and release momentum. This origin ensures asymmetry—no two powers are identical—while tying all to a hidden cosmic horror lurking in the fragments.

This city is fueled by broken spirits, shattered dreams, and the blood and sweat of the common people. In a world drowning in chrome and silicon, Jax has a different philosophy: he refuses to be just another cog in the machine. He doesn't believe that roses can bloom on circuit boards, and he certainly doesn't believe in trading his humanity for a piece of corporate hardware. In the year 2077, everyone is obsessed with the latest upgrades. But in this world, crosshairs don't just appear in your mind, and high-end prosthetics aren't installed without a heavy price. Fortunately for Jax, he has a "Gold Finger"—a unique edge that the corporate elites never saw coming. Jax never wanted to be a legend. He had no grand plans to change the world or do something "big." He just wanted to guard his own little piece of land and live a quiet, decent life. But in Night City, peace is a luxury the powerful won't let you keep. They pushed him. They cornered him. And now, they’re going to regret it. "So now—it’s time to show everyone who the real legend is!" "Adam Smasher? That’s a powerful prosthetic you’ve got there, but luckily for me, my body is far from basic. Come on, touch it! I’ll show you what a true athlete is made of!" As for Arasaka Tower? It’s going down. The only question left is what color the nuclear explosion should be. "Oh, how about pink?" in case you want to support me (special benefits) p4treon.com/ThePlotHoleRefuge (+extra Chapters)
