salvaged rage

Solomon’s life is simple. Find food. Avoid dying. Sneak onto ships. Repeat. A homeless orphan forced to flee his homeland after a brutal war, he has no relatives and even less money. His greatest talents are surviving (Barely), staying unnoticed (Easy when he’s anorexic), and finding salvageable meals out of dumpsters. So naturally, fate decides to throw him a bone. After a bizarre encounter drops him into the orbit of a prominent noble family, Solomon finds himself dragged into a world of power, danger, and people with entirely too many opinions about etiquette and honor. Suddenly, he has an earned brother who knows far too much for the average child, and a barrack full of obnoxious ten year olds. As they grow older, Solomon learns that his brother has many more secrets than he could have anticipated. Like the fact he used to be an immortal engine of destruction, and now, Solomon has to take up his mantle and protect the realm from five other undying beings. All while on the run from one of the most powerful swordsmen who’s ever lived. Which, honestly, feels like a lot of pressure for a boy who used to live in barrels. ———————--------- Character artwork is available on Discord!

The fabled potion of Rage is protected by elves in order to prevent the destruction of the world as it is known. After safeguarding the potion for 1300 years, a single human from another world fell from un-survivable heights and manages to land in the building in which it is held. Lake, a human of all things, has come into contact with this potion and brought dread to the denizens of this world known as Eyse. Anger and rage are said to bring forth the devastating power of the potion. Lake feels he can control these feelings with ease but, a previously unknown factor of the potion comes into play. A multitude of emotions have different but, equally fearsome results. The new immortal, Lake, must choose to hide any and all feelings or let them flow out at the cost of overwhelming and uncontrollable destructive power.

*Due to physical disabilities, Iggy is isolated for his own protection. He only knows his two brothers, Baine and Nansen, and their world within a brick wall, called New Eden. In spite of his overbearing brothers, Iggy sneaks out of his room and goes into the garden during the day, where he comes in contact with a strange woman. Before he can say anything to her, he loses consciousness, and awakens to her biting his face. As his only caregivers, his brothers save him from the woman, but they cannot save him from himself. Soon after the attack, Iggy is overcome with depression and craves nothing more than to end his own life. But then, a survivor arrives, and changes everything for the worst and the better.* *Baine infects Iggy with the virus. Iggy's body becomes perfect in all ways and he is granted unique powers (umbrakinesis). Things are going well, until Iggy sees the color red and his thirst reflex awakens. It is all a matter of time before Iggy's bloodlust leads the F.U.S military to New Eden, to destroy everything that Baine has created. Especially the infected ones.*

Kaelen accidentally becomes the “hero” after saving a village from a powerful sorceress who was testing a curse there. After that, he gains his Wrath Points system, with cryptic messages telling him he’s been “chosen to unite the kingdom” or some other nonsense he tries hard to ignore. However, as his abilities grow, so does the attention he gets from unusual allies—many of whom are attractive women who develop…mixed feelings about him.

When the Third World War ended, Kelly Drexler believed she could finally live quietly—finish school, run a small bakery, and try to exist without fear. She was wrong. Because the moment she crossed paths with the strange white-haired boy at school—the one who smiled like he wasn’t human—her fate shattered. Kidnapped. Torn from Earth. Dragged into a universe ruled by bloodline monarchs, star-forged beasts, and beings who consumed Cosmic Dust to evolve into Stellaris—existences powerful enough to extinguish planets with a flick of their fingers. Kelly arrived with nothing. No powers. No bloodline. Just a mortal girl thrown into a cosmic arena where the weak are erased. But she was not ordinary. When the ancient force within her awakens, Kelly discovers a terrifying truth: She can forge bloodlines. Create them. Shape destiny itself. And the universe felt it. The Lords of the Cosmos call her an anomaly—one that must be eliminated before she rises. Empires shift. Prophecies stir. Powers older than stars turn their eyes toward her. And watching her from the shadows is Jayden—the beautiful, unsettling boy who stole her from Earth. A sadistic genius whose smile hides entire storms. A monster who should be her enemy… yet whose presence she can’t escape. With the Eternis System at her side, a power once lost to history, Kelly begins her climb from helpless prey to a force that could rewrite the balance of creation. But every step she takes shakes the heavens. Every bloodline she forges reshapes fate. And every choice she makes draws her closer to a future drenched in war. This is the beginning of the rise of the one who will one day be called: The Empress of Eternis. The Monarch of Bloodlines. The woman destined to challenge the Cosmos itself.
