    15 year old Cage's life was flipped upside down when he discovered that buried within his soul is Kisei Suru Takusan, an ancient, godlike entity whose power shook the world for thousands of years. When Cage begins awakening strange spiritual abilities, he's pulled into an unseen war fought by Practitioners and Cryptids alike. But neither side sees Cage as an ally. To them, he's a threat. Cage has to resist Takusan's pull as he grows stronger and comes to understand more of the violent world he's been forced into. Every battle brings him closer to mastering incredible power, but also a step closer to losing himself entirely. As unlikely allies, ruthless enemies, differing ideologies clash around him, Cage must decide what kind of person he'll become, and how he'll survive an ever-changing world that's at odds with him, just as much as he is with himself.

    Rather than have just mammals, there are reptiles, amphibians, birds, insects, and fish/water creatures in Zootopia too.

The civilizations include Mammalia (Mammals), Reptopolis (Reptiles), St. Amphibios (Amphibians), New Avios (Birds), Anthropod Heights (Insects), and Marina Cove (Fish/Water creatures).

    BoBoiBoy takes it upon himself to save millions despite his own condition. Self-sacrificial, as always. Fang and the rest of the gang's starting to feel like they're just there for Boi's safety precautions. But one thing led to another and now their beloved leader is... a cat? Well, sort of... // Set after BBBTM2 and along the storyline of BBBGLXS2, may contain spoilers. Title and summary may be misleading, you'll just have to read and see :) Plus, the tags may be a bit of a spoiler. Don't read too much into it ;) You wouldn't believe me if I said there is no shipping. But then again, I don't believe myself either. No beta, we die like Retak'ka (ambiguously blasted off to space). Cover and title might change later. Did I mention this might be OOC? BoBoiBoy, Spheraverse, and its franchise are owned by Monsta, not me. This is purely fan made content.

    In Gotham, there was a rumor. A rumor, saying that the Bat was the coalescence of their sins, come to punish them (they said that, due to the Batman being formed of their sins, it could not kill them, lest it be weakened). The Bat was formed of the night, and the lines between it and the night blurred, to the point that it became all but invisible in the shadows, only able to be seen by the glow of its eyes, or a shadow blotting out the little light of the moon as it flew in the skies, surveying its territory. The Bat was eldritch, a myth, a tale told to children to frighten them into behaving. 'Be good, and the Batman won't snatch you away to join its brood'. By day, a ditzy socialite, CEO of Wayne Industries, by night, a vengeful shadow in the dark, punishing criminals and doling out justice, the Bat was real.

    Thirteen-year-old Alaina Esmeray Poe has spent her life in the dark-kept out of school, kept away from her father, and never told why crows seem to follow wherever she goes. When a trip to a crumbling bookstore tears open something impossible, Alaina is pulled into a hidden world-and straight into Misfits Academia, a school for children with abilities that defy reality. But Alaina doesn't just see what others can't. Something in this world recognizes her. As whispers of a long-dismissed prophecy begin to surface, Alaina finds herself at the center of something far more dangerous than a new school. Because whatever power is waking inside her... it may be the very thing that could save the academy- or destroy it.

This will be a story following two siblings learning to let others in to help while investigating mysterious deaths within the Agency's rankings while Eret teaches Tommy more of how to control his abilities.

    This is a random one-shot story that my brain decided to come up with outta nowhere featuring the lovely characters from Cryptid Coffeehouse! A romance visual novel where you bump into none other than Mothman themself in a cafe called Webbes located in some random midwestern town!(It's amazing You can find it on Itch io for free!!) However, in this little story, it's been a few months(or a year you can decide) since you officially got together with Artemis! Their birthday is coming up soon and you really want to do nothing more than to make sure they have a great time.

    The story of Ika and Mizutamari - a girl and a cat - in a completely different dimension. How did they get there? Ika was born there. Mizutamari kind of just popped up, as cats do. ~> Many upcoming lore plans, including the introduction of more characters eventually! :) Stick around if you like stories and character designs with no world boundaries. Authors note: The story doesn't make much sense in the beginning, but it'll turn more... Serious. Eventually... Enjoy!
