Umbra Overlord: Night Mother's Champion

Growing up, Corven had always known he was different. He was a misfit. An outsider. He never fit in, nor did he want to. And he got bullied for it. So when he learns that he's a demigod son of the strongest primordial god, he was notably surprised. But he quickly recovered, beginning to build his strength in a dog eat dog world. But power attracts enemies. And that's a lesson Corven will need to learn along the way, and, while being the son of the strongest can only protect one for so long, he will inevitably make enemies and rivals that would rather see him dead than succeed. As the son of the Primordial of Darkness and the prince of a forgotten royal family, Corven quickly becomes a target in a brutal world ruled by gods, monsters, demigods, nobles, cultivators, ancient Houses and ruthless politics. He must quickly build his power, brick by brick, because, if he knew one thing, it was this: He was never going to be weak ever again, and he'll ensure that he comes out on top, regardless of method. He had no intentions of bowing down to anyone ever again. In this world, strength defines worth, betrayal is currency, and weakness is an invitation to the gates of Death. So Corven must grow stronger. Faster. Smarter. More ruthless. Making both allies and enemies as he climbs the ladder of power to the peak. Because if he doesn’t, the enemies hunting him will bury him long before he ever reaches his full potential. His road is a bloody one, filled with war, betrayal, ancient enemies, and powers beyond mortal comprehension. Yet, with his loyal friends at his back and a primordial family that seems hellbent on gifting him absurdly overpowered abilities, Corven may actually stand a chance against the forces seeking his downfall... At least externally, anyway. Because the true enemy may lie within. See, power in this world comes at a cost. And Primordial Spawns are cursed notoriously worse than most. Sure, there may be Monarchs blessed by the elements. Demigods blessed by the gods. And Progenitors blessed by evolution itself. Primordial Spawns --- children born to primordial parents --- are blessed by the Primordials themselves; they are born with limitless potential and favored by the universe itself. But they are born with a curse. The stronger they become, the more their sanity begins to fracture beneath the weight of their own power. After all, the cost of power is madness and, as the strongest of the Primordial Spawns, Corven has madness in spades. Suffice to say, if the enemies of Erebus don’t kill Corven before his ascension... His own insanity might just do the trick. He fights dirty. He talks back. Mercy? There is none left. This is not a story about heroes. This is the rise of the Shadowborn monster the world tried to erase — and the legend that will force them to remember why darkness was the very first element in creation... And why it is feared. ------------------------------------ WARNING: This story isn’t for the faint of heart. The main character is shameless, crude, and unapologetically ruthless.

Scrap's Grave

--- Three hundred years ago, the Gates that connected the galaxy-spanning Empire of Man fell silent — not from war or judgment, but from simple, catastrophic failure no one left alive can explain. Cut off from the wider empire, the frontier world of Eridea Sector collapsed into a dark age of scavenged technology, warring successor states, and forgotten colonies. Houston Cole never asked to be part of any of this. A mechanical engineering graduate on Earth, he dies in the same instant his own overambitious invention explodes in his face — and wakes up centuries later and a galaxy away, his mind transplanted into the derelict body of an ancient Empire-era industrial robot, stranded on a nameless scrap planet at the edge of known space. Alone, without a body he recognizes as his own, and with no way home, Houston does the only thing he knows how to do: build. Piece by scavenged piece, using a dead engineer's manuals and a half-broken 3D printer, he claws his way from bare survival toward something like a future — while slowly discovering that the mind now running his machine is no longer entirely human. Beyond his scrapyard horizon, an Empire without legitimacy, an Alliance born from resistance, and corporations that outlived the fall are carving up what's left of civilization. Houston doesn't know it yet, but Eridea Sector is running out of room for anyone who stays neutral for long.
