The Zenith erupted from the earth—monsters, demons, and alien horrors pouring out of a million Towers, wiping out half of humanity in a single year. My parents vanished in the chaos. I didn't. When the survivors finally got the power to fight back, they got fireballs, blades of light, and heroic bloodlines. I got a corpse. [SYSTEM NOTICE] Ability Unlocked: Carcass Possession No spells. No weapons. My class lets me climb inside the bodies of the monsters I kill and wear their skin — their strength, their claws, their nightmares — like armor. Everyone who saw it called it a trash roll. A joke of a class for a kid who'd never survive his first Tower. They were wrong. The Zenith reached the peak of evolution before they broke the world. Now every corpse I leave behind is a weapon I get to keep. I'm going to climb their Towers, wear their bodies, and take back everything they took from me — one stolen shell at a time. What to Expect: ⚔ Unique LitRPG system — no mana, no magic, just Carcass Possession 🦴 Stats, tiers, and a growing "Vessel Library" of monster bodies to wear 🏙 Grim, grounded post-apocalyptic setting — Grey District, guild politics, black markets 🤝 Alliance-building over chosen-one power fantasy — trust is earned, not given 📈 Slow-burn progression that rewards patience, precision, and clever tactics over raw stats 🐜 Body-horror flavored transformation — possession has a cost, and it isn't clean 👁 A mysterious, ancient rival who's been doing this far longer than the MC has 📅 Upload Schedule: 2 Chapters Daily at 9:00 AM & 7:00 PM EDT (3:00 PM & 1:00 AM CEST).

The incredibly anticipated game, Aevum, has just released today. Arthur has been waiting for this game for a long time, as it is the first true virtual reality MMORPG to ever be released. The company has been quite secretive about the technology behind it, though... Arthur will get to experience life in another world, along with fifty thousand other players as part of the first wave into Aevum. He will fight, learn, improve, make friends, make enemies, and uncover strange happenings in this new world. What to expect: A VRMMO story without "die in real life" stakes (I know, not everyone's cup of tea). A main character who is driven to become stronger through pure swordsmanship, no magic. Fairly light hearted tones, with descriptions of violence but nothing grotesque. PG-13 is roughly equivalent I would say.

Synopsis FBI Agent. Closet Sociopath. Giant. All of these words describe SAC Imai. A man - no, a thing, unleashed onto the word to exact his hate filled vengeance on the proxies of his suffering. Ready to use any means - legal or otherwise - to bring the criminal element to 'justice'. And not the hollow victory of imprisonment. He would bring the only true measure of punishment to greatest amount of people possible. Death - painful if possible. Not just in its physicality but in the sheer destructiveness wrought onto society expertly hidden from prying eyes. Combat. Manipulation. Murder. All key disciplines of warfare. A war fought by a one-man army in the shadows of US law enforcement. /// Introduction - Justice is truly blind, O.I. Hate. It is powerful - it endures the longest amid the dying stars of human emotion. Hate. Utter contempt for one's own race. How far would someone go. How terrible their resolve. How deep the machinations. To extract their revenge - satiate that cool fire - against the object of that burning hate. What heights would such a being reach - when they abhor the sky that hangs overhead and the earth beneath their feet. Their weakness shackles them. Their humanity binds them. Not a wildfire, no, it would be slow. Painful. Equal. An instrument of justice become odium incarnate. A grudge so deep it would consume the soul. A predator unleashed upon ‘polite’ society. How far would such a being go? To make them feel true fear.
