Familial Ties

"Ah, well... thank you?" Charles stared suspiciously at his brother. Xav had always been adamant about how much he disapproved of the relationship he had with Elisa -- and now that the two of them were getting married, he'd been expecting his younger...

The Orc Bar

"Come on," the orc cajoled. He gave Vinden a wide grin, his lips pulling back around his tusks. Rhevin was his name, if Vinden remembered correctly -- it was hard to be sure, considering the way the orcs had all just sort of coalesced together to coax...

Archangel's Corruption

The battlefield _raged_. Such was the clash between angel and demon. They were not simply warriors fighting for their cause, no; each of them was a force of nature given form, and their battle shook the landscape around them. Spear against claw,...

Nature's Gift

The jungle stirred. It took all of three seconds for it to come to sudden life as the sun spilled over the horizon - startled birds leaping up into the air as rays of light cast into their eyes, the rustle of leaves and the creaking of wood as the...

Cleric's Seduction

Terin stumbled from the ashes of his former home, coughing heavily. It took him a moment to fully understand what he'd done, but even a novice cleric like himself could understand its severity. His home was in flames, the summoning circle he'd drawn...

CYOA: Reversed Light

Crocodilian Menace

In the swamps, a creature lurked. It had lived in the swamp for years, though it had no means with which to count the time; all it knew was that it had lived there for all of its life, and it enjoyed the simple pleasures that the swamp afforded. It...

A Kobold's Heart

Immortality could be a dangerous thing. It was seen in dragons, most often. There was no known age at which a dragon would die naturally; the oldest were rumored to be thousands of years old, beacons of wisdom and intelligence - yet those were few...

Fogged Lust

Geralt knew something was wrong almost as soon as he entered the area. He'd hunted many monsters before in his time as a witcher - this, however, was different. It was rare to see a place so deserted, so... eerie. More often than not, if there was a...

All the Better

The atmosphere in the Drunken Dragon was always something Teryx had enjoyed. Despite the name, it was a place for creatures of all species, from mundane to the mystical. A pair of identical otters had found their place in a corner and were eagerly...
