“Erebus: The Shadow Sovereign” (Subtitle option for clarity: “Rise of the sovereign Across All Verses”) ----- In the beginning, there was only the Abyss—silent, eternal, and indifferent. From its depths arose Erebus, a being of unimaginable power, six meters tall, with eyes as black and white as the void and the cosmos themselves. Born to wield every dark and forbidden power, Erebus was destined to command the threads of existence. From lower-tier worlds of pirates, ninjas, and mortals, to the mid-tier realms of titanic dragons and warlike gods, Erebus’s presence fractured the boundaries of reality. As he ascended, the strongest beings from countless verses—anime, myth, legend, and lost histories—observed him, sensing a rising threat unlike any other. To aid in his conquest, he forged an army of loyal generals: six immortal Shadow Generals, unbreakable and eternal, and sixteen temporary generals, each from a different universe, world, or reality. Their motivations varied—some inspired by awe, some by love, some by the debt of survival—but all were drawn to the inexorable power that was Erebus. As he marched from verse to verse, conquering and reshaping worlds, battles erupted. Cities, planets, and realms fell beneath the shadow of his will. Yet not all could be controlled. Death stalked even his most loyal generals, and with each loss, Erebus felt a fragment of something he had never known: grief. It twisted him, reshaping justice into cold, unyielding vengeance. Erebus’s ambition was limitless: to conquer all realities, to challenge the strongest beings across time, space, and fiction, and to become a force that even gods would fear. But the higher-tier verses watched, patient and calculating, waiting for the moment they must intervene. Even as he crushed lower and mid-tier realms effortlessly, the stage was being set for a war unlike any in all existence—a war where one being stands against all, and all stand against one. “Erebus: The Shadow Sovereign” is an epic dark fantasy saga of conquest, grief, and godlike power. It explores the rise of a multiversal tyrant, the loyalty and sacrifice of those who follow him, and the inexorable transformation of a being who knows neither mercy nor defeat.

Time, Tarzan, & Terrible Ideas is a sci-fi comedy action-adventure mystery thriller that begins with a terrible... but groundbreaking... mistake. Dr. Milo Finch, a brilliant, anxious young scientist with more intelligence than common sense, successfully invents a time machine. During what is supposed to be a short, observational test run, Milo is violently thrown into the distant past and crash-lands in the heart of an untouched jungle. There, Milo makes an impossible discovery: he has landed in the era... and the world... of Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle. Far from a myth, Tarzan is intelligent, perceptive, and deeply connected to the natural world. Milo’s arrival immediately disrupts the balance of the jungle. His futuristic technology destabilizes time itself, attracting armed hunters and anachronistic forces that should not exist in this era. As Milo struggles to reconcile scientific logic with the terrifying reality that he may have broken history, Tarzan recognizes the danger Milo represents... and the necessity of his survival. The unlikely duo forms an uneasy alliance: Milo brings chaotic future knowledge, comic book references, and reckless innovation; Tarzan brings unmatched physical skill, strategic instincts, and the jungle itself as a weapon. Together, they uncover a growing mystery: someone else has learned to exploit time travel, using the past as a battlefield and resource. What begins as a survival story quickly escalates into a hidden time war, with Tarzan’s jungle as ground zero. As paradoxes multiply and reality begins to fracture, Milo must find a way to repair time before it corrects itself violently... by erasing everything in its path. Blending sharp comedy, high-energy action, and escalating thriller elements, Time, Tarzan, & Terrible Ideas reimagines a classic legend through the lens of modern sci-fi, exploring destiny, responsibility, and the consequences of asking “what if” one time too many.

"3, 2, 1… FIGHT!" the referee shouted. Both of the fighters threw punches at each other, and the crowd cheered. Benjo got hit, Chad got punched, and they just kept striking each other. In the video's of their previous fights they made me watch, they just wrestled and pinned each other, and it was boring. Chad got knocked to the ground and got up once more, then Benjo did the same. Mark and I watched in silence, closely. A lot of minutes later, both of the fighters ran out of breath and just stood meters away from each other, each taking a moment to catch their breath. Both of them really gave their all in the fight, they really showed how much they hate each other. The crowd grew silent, and I looked at Mark, "Damn, that was badass!"

There shouldn't be supposed to be lions around here.

Having once been a celebrated warrior, he spent his last days overwhelmed by the burden of conflict, experiencing remorse, despair, and a profound sense of emptiness from a soul ravaged by the terrors he had seen. In obscurity, he passed away, a person whose inner self had long departed. However, passing was not the conclusion. The Infinite Creator, though invisible yet ever-present, granted him another opportunity, transforming him into something greater than his previous self. He is revived in another world, awakening as Lythion, an insignificant herder located in a humble community. In this realm, creatures such as succubi, vampires, terrifying undead, and gigantic beings wander freely. Moreover, he is guided by a mysterious System, presenting challenges and missions exclusively tailored for him. Nonetheless, these ordeals surpass mere warfare; each triumph and encounter compels him to recuperate the sentiments he had forfeited: bravery, happiness, affection, sorrow, and even optimism itself. As Lythion reclaims each feeling, he develops greater strength, unlocking abilities intricately connected to the core of his being. Lythion transitions from a shepherd to a fighter, from fractured to complete, confronting deceit, illicit cravings, and the overwhelming responsibility of leadership. By regaining the entirety of his humanity, he can rise not just in dominance, but also in the chance for genuine rebirth. “Authority is not freely handed out; it’s earned by devotion… attained through the spirit, innermost self, and the struggles known only to oneself. ”
