Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
Phovos saw him again. Repeatedly. Never directly though. Always from the corner of her eye. The pale blue Ksithan. Phovos had been running around all day, and it wasn’t until her Lanex House Fighters pointed out the ‘impossible Mage’ that she’d started noticing him too, and since then, that was all Phovos was seeing. A … Read more
“Where are we?” Itaviir rubbed his eyes as he sat up and tried to work out where he was. By his side was Galyn, who clearly wasn’t quite awake yet, and was curled up by Itaviir’s side. It would have been rather cute had both Itaviir and Galyn not been 4m tall armoured monsters with … Read more
“Hey, Tahvra, how are you doing?” Tahvra blinked. He had been staring out of the observatory window. How long had he been sitting there? Tahvra wasn’t sure. In his hands was one of his new favourite possessions, a buildable action figure in the shape of his best friend. Tahvra continued to blink, not really sure … Read more
For once, Phovos had about an hour to herself. She’d finished all her meetings, she’d had her discussions with her House Fighters and the next week’s matches had all been arranged. After a little too long, Phovos had finally managed to arrange the import of several Banikosauric Traumai, a species of colossal, predatory monsters, from … Read more
Vekeus hesitated as he stepped onto the quiet Stardawn Straights Life Oasis, and pulled his cloak around himself. This particular oasis was open to all Periuniversal Void entities, including Voidborns, but today, the only important beings hanging around were a couple of Life Goddesses and their small group of eight Divine Guardians, deities programmed to … Read more
Phovos wasn’t sure what she was looking at as she stormed into the private training area for Xeno Dessaron One, favourite ever House Fighter arena team. She’d expected the four of them to either be sparring or sitting around chatting, but no, currently Retvik was just wandering around the room, carrying Kayel in one hand … Read more
Spiritdrainer: Hello, are you there? Spiritdrainer: Litvir? Spiritdrainer: Litvir are you available to talk? Souldrainer is now online. Souldrainer: Hello, deary! I am! Spiritdrainer: Oh good. Because I have a very awkward question and I am very embarrassed. Souldrainer: That has not stopped you before! Souldrainer: Please excuse me, I am very, very, very drunk. … Read more
Things had finally settled down on the Shimmering Blade, and the last few days had been spent with constant Phantai patrols, wiping out any remaining Voidborn ships. In fact, today, not a single Voidborn vessel had been seen across the entirety of the sector. However, the Thantir though were all relaxing and doing precisely nothing. … Read more
Phovoula Tromeros, Phovos for short, but often just referred to as the Raptor, had a lot of duties. Being the manager of the Great Dessaron Battle Arenas, she was a very busy being. Normally, she could use that as an excuse to get out of less fun meetings that required Phovos to dress up, but … Read more
Kuta couldn’t help but smile to themselves. Not too long ago, things had not been great. In fact, things had been very bad. They had been lonely and overworked and miserable. And then briefly homeless. And also had both their legs broken. But now things were awesome. Kuta had a new home, a new job … Read more
“So, while we’re all just chilling out, mind if I ask a question?” Kayel glanced up from the kitchen, where he was busy preparing two pigeons he had shot and killed earlier. Pigeons were considered a massive pest in the city of Palaestra, and there were no laws against killing them. In fact, there were … Read more
It was pretty late, and most of the arenas had shut down. There were a couple of late night matches just finishing up, but things were quiet, which meant that the commotion in the Gold Suite sounded weird. Normally, the Gold Suite was left empty, as it was meant to host the four deities of … Read more
Moonblade was pretty sure he was in the wrong observatory, but this one was quiet and empty and he needed to sit down for a bit. Like many of the Phantai, he was rather tipsy, having had too much to drink while celebrating. But the more Moonblade had to drink, the more he felt that … Read more
“Well that was hot.” “Definitely.” Kayel yawned and sat up, stretching out his arms. There were still specks of blood on him from his arena battle. He’d played the Big Bad, a vicious monster, his job being to stop a bunch of contestants from escaping a specially set up arena. Had any of the contestants … Read more
Normally, the Big Bad in the popular Thirteenth Night arena game show would be announced in advance, and there were several House Fighters who would regularly play as the big, scary monster that would go around pretending to kill contestants. Today though, the identity of the Big Bad had been kept a secret until all … Read more
