2024-06-13 18:23:45 +0000 UTC View PostEver tried to find a single imp in a dungeon completely full of ‘em?
Turns out it wasn’t as hard as Markus envisioned it being. Not even remotely so.
“Yeah, I think I know who you’re talking about. Why the f...

2024-06-11 20:29:50 +0000 UTC View Post“Please… please fuck off.”
Only five minutes ago he was knocking against the great glowing doors of heaven, and in the time that’d passed since, these rich fucks would not for the life of Markus stop badgering hi...
2024-06-10 17:31:14 +0000 UTC View PostMarkus didn’t know that he was using a skill, not really, not until the blood started to tear from the creature’s neck of its own accord, until the laceration deepened and grew yet more thick as the trimander struggled and strained, not until ...
2024-06-09 17:00:19 +0000 UTC View Post“I don’t know, hide?!”
Markus could barely think. Massive reptillian monster was staring at him hungrily, all three heads trained directly on him. This one was live, energised, feral. In the background, numbers were still being ...
2024-06-08 15:09:36 +0000 UTC View PostMarkus hastily distributed points into his attributes as the cart roughly bumped the uneven surface below, the group of them being dragged along with no approximation of a destination in sight, only whatever their imaginations could conjure.
“Fucking hated that bitch,” Cyrus grumbled.
Markus immediately spat out his drink as he tried not to choke laughing, his [Meditation] aura completely fading. He’d been attempting to use the Meditation feature of Respite to...
2024-06-06 14:42:05 +0000 UTC View PostMarkus didn’t even know there were training rooms until now. He’d also expected them to be teleported right there, but instead, Maesha the Sword God simply said she would ‘lead the way’ and took off walking.
Markus had to jog ...
2024-06-05 15:17:37 +0000 UTC View Post“What’s your name?” the small goddess asked, stroking Ember as she spoke.
“Markus.”
“Does it have a meaning?” When Markus only blinked, she elaborated. “Your name. Does it mean anything?”

2024-06-04 13:55:36 +0000 UTC View Post“You Drathok’s new punching bag?” the blacksmith sneered, large tusks jutting from his maw as he looked Markus over, who despite the potent effects of the healing potion, still looked like he’d recently gone twelve rounds with Rocky.
Markus had been about to pass out when he felt a pair of hands around his chest hoisting him back to his feet.
“Good fight…” Drathok whispered into his ear, before turning to bow to the audience.

2024-06-04 13:39:40 +0000 UTC View PostMarkus felt the air slicing right past his shoulder, but the blade never made contact. With an explosion of pain and power, he forced the goblins away with intangible, spiritual force, a white-blue energy emanating from him as he clutched his axe ...
2024-06-03 17:59:33 +0000 UTC View PostSeven of the bastards. God, his luck was fucking blessed. Barely crawled out of bed and he’d been dragged here with nothing but his fists!

2024-06-02 13:51:13 +0000 UTC View PostPicking a path between the three he'd been offered wasn’t as simple as it seemed.
The first option was straightforward, offering easily applicable crowd control in return for a small quantity of mana. It sounded easily applicable an...
2024-06-01 12:51:53 +0000 UTC View PostWell, that could’ve gone worse.
Maxen wasn’t a crack dealer. What he did end up being was a brothel owner. He found Markus’ power interesting, and hoped to use his ability to transfer mana to invigorate his workers...
2024-05-31 13:50:01 +0000 UTC View Post“Hello, mortal. Have I come at a bad time?”
Markus stared up at the glowing golden paragon of divine energy stood before him, then glanced back at the flaming helldog that had tried to kill him not minutes before. He sighed.
