After already having come from Boston to make what he thought was his connection for home, now heading in the wrong dir...
My name is Kal and I was once known as Hercules, the God of Strength among the deities of the ancient Greek Pantheon. Anyone looking at me would see a tall, good-looking man with light bronze skin and pale green eyes in his early twenties. I currently inhabit the body of a former devotee of mine. Jared Floyd, a young man with amazing talents who hails from...
Finally it was time to address the United Nations and Rick stepped nervously up to the podium looking out at all of the faces from all of the worlds nations. He pulled out a piece of paper that had his speech on it, which he had been writing since the Teyven asked him to be their ambassador to Earth. "Hello, I'm Rick Thomas, I'm from a small town in upstate...
Diana Prince is a statuesque, young, well built woman with coal black hair, piercing blue eyes, and full, generous breasts. In spite of dressing in a generally conservative manner, and wearing her long, silky hair pinned up in a severe bun most often and her eyes and face obscured by the large, black plastic framed eyeglasses she still turns heads. She’s int...
Azeroth, a land filled with rich characters, lands, and constant warfare. Men and women rise as equals, to face their enemies in the ever-changing strife between the factions.

“Damn him to hell!” You shout as you toss your goblet in anger at the short and meek royal messenger. He quickly scurries out of your chambers as you throw your desk over on its side. Surely it wasn’t his fault, but the last few weeks has been full of disappointment and sorrow. It all began when your father, King Skall, died in combat fighting against one of...
Sharra had somehow expected the planet to be larger. In her dreams, when she finally looked out through the viewport onto the nameless homeworld of the Artificers, it always loomed on the screen like some sort of vast, unblinking eye. She pictured endless storms blasting its surface with lightning, blazing volcanoes that hurled molten lava high into the stra...
Standing in front of Laban Bogale's grave, I sighed deeply. Born in the City of Bahir Dar, on the northern region of Ethiopia on November 8, 1694 of the Christian calendar, he died on the shores of Lake Awasa, in the Great Rift Valley of Ethiopia, on February 5, 1721. Beloved son, and a wonderful human being, that's what his tombstone read. Twenty seven year...
