Conquering The Tower of Fate

Storyputter
There is a great mystery surrounding the Towers. Nobody can provide a unique answer as to why they appeared. There'd always been mystical things in the world, but never a wish-fulfilling hub of challenges, which lures in greedy men and women to their potential demises. Worthy, a 12-year-old child from Malas Town, a run-down, forsaken slum far beyond the walls of the "Kingdom" decides to test his luck by climbing Aciago Tower—presumed to be the most challenging Tower in the world. No one has made it more than halfway through, and countless people find themselves trapped within. The temptation to climb is irresistible to those who have nothing to lose. Those who reach the top floor will have their wish granted, and those who fail will perish. For the sake of his family, Worthy is willing to push aside everything and ride whoever's coattail he needs to reach the peak of Aciago Tower. Yet, he may have a more damning time than he might've anticipated. The Tower is full of more mysteries and horrors than the outside world can possibly imagine, and he finds himself at the center of it all. Equipped with abilities bestowed by the Tower, his dreams to reach the top seem so close, but at the same time, so impossibly far away.

The Gods Need A Better Storyteller

After dying in a fire, a librarian finds himself before Geshich, the god of stories. Desperate for another chance at life, and avoid the dread of death, he pleads for a second chance. Geshich agrees, on one condition: this time, his life must be worth telling. Reborn as Caleb Lightbane, he finds himself in a medieval world turned on its head, where women are superhuman warriors and men wield magic. Determined to avoid a dull and uninteresting life, Caleb searches for a narrative worthy of divine approval, unaware that his desire for a good story may get him into more trouble than its worth. When he accidentally kills several figures he believes to be bandits in the woods, Caleb stumbles upon a horrifying discovery: a trunk containing a strange and alien substance and the dismembered bodies parts of young girls. Wracked with guilt and curiosity, he spends months studying healing magic, eventually succeeding in restoring them to life. But when the girls awaken, Caleb panics and invents a lie. He tells them they were sacrificed by an evil cult devoted to a god of Entropy, casting himself as a chosen savior: the Prophet of Light. Trapped by his own fabrication, Caleb’s situation worsens when he carelessly creates a clone of himself, one who eagerly volunteers to play the role of the Evil Prophet. From opposite sides of a sometimes carefully constructed myth and sometimes random bullshit they came up with, Caleb and his clone begin to shape their followers into warriors and zealots, forged by faith, lies and gas-lighting. To sustain the illusion, the two prophets engage in deliberate theatrics: staged confrontations, fake prophecies, and calculated displays of mercy and cruelty, all designed to be seen and remembered. And their antics may have caught the attention of more than just Geshich. (2-3 Chapters a week. Usually on Tuesdays and Thursday, sometimes Saturday. But there will be a hiatus between volumes.)

MARVEL: ALL MY INCARNATIONS FEMALE VILLAINS

Transformation", "Yuri", "Narcissus", "Anime Crossover", "Behind-the-Scenes" Su Modie never expected that she would transmigrate into the Marvel world and become a beautiful girl. Looking at her face in the mirror, which was more innocent than her first love, and then imagining the world-ending Thanos snap in the future, the girl felt dizzy. What's the point of playing this game? Just not getting caught and having babies is a success! Fortunately, she awakened "The Villainess Simulation Game" and started with the bomb demon Reese. As long as she causes trouble and harvests negative emotions, she can use the Villainess Value to draw an avatar. Minami, Makima, Red Wolf, Rize Kamishiro, Android 18, Annie the Female Titan… Wait a minute, has something strange gotten mixed in? As he grew closer to the increasingly aloof, domineering, and yandere types surrounding him, surrounded by the scent of citrus, Su Modie's original desire to be a macho man gradually wavered. …This feeling of “pampering myself” is getting more and more addictive! So the girl completely let loose and became a troublemaker among a group of superheroes and supervillains. Draw new avatars, train and simulate characters, and unlock more poses... oh wait, I mean more skins and abilities. Tony: Miss Lacey is so mean! She blew my armor to smithereens and then sold it for scrap metal QAQ Thor: Is Mjolnir's password "big-breasted, brainless blonde beauty"? Why did that mage named Lux just casually pick her up? Nick Fury: What do you mean, even Hydra has been infiltrated by LeBlanc? Thanos: What are you looking at me for? I'm Miss Machima's dog, woof! When Su Modie came to her senses, she looked at the Marvel universe she had messed up and blinked innocently: "I really didn't intend to destroy the world!"
