The Other Kind of Roommate

by Tartra

The Agents want to kill him: this is a fact that Alex has burned into his mind. Wherever he goes out, whenever he settles down, they’re out there and they’re closing in from every direction. He has to stay safe, so no more drawing attention, no interaction, no friends, no errands, and that’s exactly what he hasn’t been doing for years because Xander is an asshole.

Beth is going to learn firsthand what the Agency needs with her upstairs neighbour(s). In a short stroke, she and Alex turn from strangers into one another’s lifelines. Impossible powers and shadowy groups should have been the worst of it, but thanks to Xander’s backseat driving in the corner of Alex’s brain, they’ve got a bigger problem: Starbucks.

The penalty for practicing black magic is death. Amalia di Danti is the daughter of a Judge, and as such believes wholeheartedly that black magic is the most wicked of all evils. When she stumbles upon evidence to the contrary, she is confronted with an uncomfortable question: why was black magic really banned? Her answer to that question thrusts her into the midst of a growing rebellion and civil war.

The Blazing Stars (Brennus)

by Tieshaunn

In a world, where superheroes and -villains have been fighting since the twenties, a world whose present is so very unlike our own, a young gadgeteer, Basil Blake, seeks both the thrills of a hero’s life as well as the chance to do some good.

The world is haunted by an invincible woman out to destroy all she sees; by a hundred-year-old villain who sees all as a mere game, moving all the pieces under his sway for his own amusement; by twisted abominations born of a single man’s spite towards all; by six madmen out to spread their madness; by an overlord who wants to subjugate all and by a great advantage in numbers for the villains.

Goodfae

by Kspam

Goodfae is a story about the mafia. Simple, right? Well, actually not so much. Not once you throw fairies, ghosts, gods and monsters into the mix with mobsters and magic. The world of Goodfae is far from copacetic, much like the life of its protagonist, Alfonso Anastasio; a mafioso and newly made man trying to make ends meet to support his bedridden sister. Just like everyone else in the great city of New York, New York, Al wakes up everyday just so he can go to work nine to five and bring home the bread. Unlike other people, Al’s work involves extortion and violent gang warfare alongside the likes of warlock Marquis Allesandri and his crew of vampires, demigods, and changelings. Hey, some people file tax returns, some people file bullets. With the Allesandri family and their capo backing Alfonso and his sister, is he going to walk the road of gold and roses, or is his life and the lives of everyone around him about to become a lot more complicated?
