Trienna : Litany of poisons
By @Duke WB
Ren, a soul reincarnated onto the magical Trienna continent, finds himself the heir to immense wealth, yet cursed by a constitution that rejects the world's prevalent magic. In a society where strength dictates status and mages wield power through nine intricate circles, his inability to manipulate mana renders him an outcast, despite his family's prestige. Driven by a cold determination to defy his fate, Ren invests his fortune into dangerous expeditions, hiring skilled mercenaries to plumb the depths of forgotten ancient ruins for an answer. Within a crumbling crypt, he unearths an ancient grimoire: the "Litany of Poisons." This forbidden text reveals his unique "myriads poisons body" can only interact with raw, pure mana through the arcane arts, a path entirely separate from conventional magic. With this newfound, perilous knowledge and the potent techniques contained within the Litany, Ren must now forge his own formidable path. He will navigate a treacherous world that despises weakness and redefine strength itself, not with magic, but through the unparalleled mastery of poisons and arcane power, carving out an empire of his own.

The Apocalypse
By @Isabel “Baticuang,Ma. Isabel S.” Baticuang
The tranquil rhythms of Earth 00045 shattered when a virulent plague erupted, transforming humanity into ravenous hordes. As cities crumbled, a desperate new breed of humans surfaced, wielding elemental powers drawn from shimmering crystal cores. Among them, the enigmatic Columbin Thames, a youth with an unreadable gaze, hides a power far beyond mere spatial manipulation. While others tear through infected throngs with fire and ice, Columbin deftly warps reality, creating spatial rifts and crushing gravity fields, his true chronal abilities a closely guarded secret. He seeks not glory, but redemption for a past he cannot outrun, convinced that his hidden power holds the key to averting a deeper, cosmic cataclysm. A reluctant leader, he must guide a diverse group of powered teenagers, each burdened by their own scars, through a world rapidly spiraling into oblivion, all while a shadowy entity hunts those who wield space-time, seeking to harness its ultimate destructive potential.
