Ghastly Adventures: Cascade 2.3 (ch. 8)

“You boys did a good thing today, but I hope you understand how foolish it was,” a grizzled man said, his arms crossed. There were scars up his arms-- cuts, burns, and Lichtenberg scarring. He was heavily built like a strongman, with a bushy beard and a wide brimmed hat. A Ranger -- if Office...

Ghastly Adventures: Cascade 2.2 (ch. 7)

“Poltergeist!” I called out, Litwick before me with her flame burning brightly as she grabbed hold of my opponent’s Butterfree. I didn’t need to say anything more before Litwick slammed the bug pokemon into the ground on the battle court. The guy across from me, who was a few years older,...

The Good Life: Crawl Out Through The Fallout (ch. 39)

Taylor Hebert ran for her life, her lungs burning, her legs aching, each breath coming as a desperate gasp. A loud crack before the sound of something whizzing by her ear made her breathing hitch as a plume of dust from the sandy dirt went up a dozen feet ahead of her. It was nothing short of a m...

The Good Life: He's a Demon, He's a Devil, He's a Doll (ch. 38)

You know, for a mostly desolate world that was inhabited by merciless raiders, it did have one redeeming feature. Monsters. The Gatorclaw zeroed in on me, his pupil becoming a slit before a low rumble escaped his throat. Then, with shocking speed, the miniature Godzilla raced forward, his tail sw...

The Good Life: Civilization (ch. 37)

In general, things weren’t looking so hot for the human race, I could admit that freely enough. We blew ourselves to hell and back, and our refuge from a world bathed in nuclear hellfire was another world that had experienced the same a few centuries in the past. To be perfectly honest, the hum...

The Good Life: Old World Blues (ch. 36) (Fallout Jump Start)

“This place kinda sucks,” I observed with Yoruichi by my side as we drank in the sights of a whole new world. The excitement was a little undercut by the fact that everything looked vaguely the same -- dilapidated, neglected, and weathered from about two hundred years of being exposed to the ...

A Fun Time, Not A Long Time: Skull Island 1.4 (ch. 4)

"This will be our final battle, Ippo," I informed the gorilla, my arms crossed over my chest that was clad in a pink floral button down that made me look like a tourist on vacation. We stood on a white sandy beach, the very same one that I had woken up on nearly two weeks ago. Behind me was the s...

LND Gamer Elements Poll

This poll is to get a little feedback on something that has been bugging me for a while now and that's the gamer elements in Legends Never Die. To preface this, the poll is purely for feedback to see which way people are leaning. 

I've always preferred that Gamer elements in a Gamer st...

Legends Never Die: I See Fire (ch. 72)

Hadi's father couldn't have been more happy even if Allah himself parted the skies and proclaimed him Caliph. A royal advisor. A direct connection to the throne. A position of great influence, even if it was to the second son, as a prince was still a prince. It was more than father could have eve...

Legends Never Die: The Price for Ambition (ch. 71)

Michalis had managed his task nicely, I would soon learn. Even if I was left with the question of who really sent the assassin after me. They had certainly taken a risk -- an arrow in the middle of a play with dancing elephants was far less subtle than poison. Which made me wonder if this was tru...

Legends Never Die: Unwanted Attention (ch. 70)

Hadi Husain never put much stock in hearsay. He knew people. How they thought. What entertained them. A story could never be interesting enough as they heard it -- it always needed a little embellishment. A touch here, a touch there, and before you knew it, the entire story couldn’t even be rec...

Legends Never Die: The Cost of Secrets (ch. 69)

I had never seen so many people gathered in a single place. It wasn't the first time I had that thought. It wasn't the second or the third either. The very first time I thought it, I had been a boy fresh off the family farm and Alabu had struck me as the largest city in the world. Then, when we r...

Ghastly Adventures: Cascade 2.4 (ch. 9)

There were a lot fewer people on the beach at night, making it perfect for me. I paddled out on my stomach, the waves rising and falling in a rhythm while the moon shone overhead. Light pollution thinned out the number of stars overhead, but they were still quite a sight, enough to distract me un...

Ghastly Adventures: Cascade 2.3 (ch. 8)

“You boys did a good thing today, but I hope you understand how foolish it was,” a grizzled man said, his arms crossed. There were scars up his arms-- cuts, burns, and Lichtenberg scarring. He was heavily built like a strongman, with a bushy beard and a wide brimmed hat. A Ranger -- if Office...

Ghastly Adventures: Cascade 2.1 (ch. 6)

Dinner was nothing less than pure chaos. Nine children of various ages, two sets of twins, all seated at a long table that could barely house them all as it was. I would give Flint this -- his genes were unmatched because there wasn't a shadow of a doubt in my mind that he was the father of them ...

The Good Life: I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire~! (ch. 35)

The world had gone kaput. The news couldn’t say as much due to the fact all the nukes going off had ended up frying any electronics with a circuit board, but everyone knew it was true. The nukes only rained down upon the world for around two hours total, starting with the nuke that went off in ...

Legends Never Die: The Nature of Intrigue (ch. 68)

Influence wasn't something that could truly be felt. It wasn't tangible. It didn't have a taste or a scent. It did, however, have a feeling and a sound, and almost immediately after the conversation with Dowager Irene, our change in influence had announced itself for all to hear. There was no ann...

Never Fade Away: Rite Of Passage (ch. 58)

This was going to be one hell of a test drive, I thought to myself as the Turian fleet began to move. Portions of the fleet that I'm guessing didn't have an army on them began to converge on my location. There were a thousand ships, and even if a hundred of them remained behind, that was still ni...

Never Fade Away: Code Red Initiated (ch. 57)

David knew he was faster. Probably stronger. But Biotics were one hell of an equalizer, he thought as missiles exploded around him and the surrounding area became nothing but fire, dust, and shrapnel. Kaiden and Panam would be okay -- nothing short of the wrath of God would be getting through tha...

Never Fade Away: Extraction Action (ch. 56)

Kaiden was increasingly convinced that the very worst part of war was the waiting. Waiting when you knew something was going to happen, that within minutes or hours everything would become a chaotic mess in a life or death struggle. Time seemed to warp as seconds felt like minutes and mi...

Charges spent over timeskip:

Black boxing -- 5 (5)

Predator: Cloaking -- 4 (2)

Fallout: Energy Weapons -- 4 (2)

Fallout: Autodoc -- 5 (2)

Starfield: Grav Drive -- 5 (3)

“You've changed,” Kaiden accused me as I looked over the schematics I was deve...
