Well... the whole thing started when I was talking with a friend of mine via Skype. All of a sudden, some Yarr999 wanted to be added. Message text was something like "?FṜIЭND¿". At first I thought someone's just pulling off a prank and decided to put it on ice.
But he didn't stop and sent me requests for friendship again and again. Finally, I was fed up with it and added him. After I did it the only thing I remember was some picture with somebody else's disfigured face and message "WҘ r FṜIЭND$ nỔW"
When I recovered myself... well, I was startled indeed. I was laying in the bath. Besides, not mine bath. When I got out of it, I came to the mirror. I damn near passed out. My face was the same as in the picture in Skype. I ran out of the bathroom. The house wasn't mine. It seemed I was going nuts. I examined the house. It seemed that... creature, which had lived there was not very fond of appliances. Pieces of metal, microchips, glass, and tangled wires were here and there. I entered the room with a computer. It was the only working device, and, apparently, very old one. The window in the room was curtained with a carpet, and only light bulb on the ceiling lighted that room. Skype was on. My name was Yarr999. "What's the fuck?!", I thought. I had to do something about that.
I found an old wardrobe, a jacket in it and came out into the street. I had no idea where I was. I asked where am I. A passing-by woman gave me a dubious look and went away. I asked a man the same question – and got the same reaction. Not knowing what to do, I returned home. At least there were money and food, but in a month there would be nothing.

I went to the computer. There were many files on the desktop, pornography, anime, American cartoons, films... It felt like files belonged to different people. I logged in Skype. My body was online. Very well, let's talk then. "What have you done?!", I typed, but got a medley of letters. The same was true for all my messages - in handwriting too. All the same.
But then I caught sight of a text file on the desktop. Opened it. "You are the next cursed. Curse another person and lose your own curse. Further – instruction...." The text file was huge. There was a great deal of versions in various languages, including the English. How to curse was written in the instruction, but I won't upload it, certainly not. Thanks to the instruction I also got to know how to TῩpЭlikEthᾄT– otherwise – if I typed as usual - I got that mess. Now I'm in a new body. The new life. And I'm typing it on the new computer. I found some user from the USA, he lived in Miami. He lived alone, as I understood. But I don't feel good anyway. Now HE is ME. And I'll never return my life.
In no case do not add that user! I beg you, if you don't want to lose everything - give up this idea. I go to my dreams. Goodbye.

I should have been the Hero instead
William Valenston had a happy life untill a new demonlord appeared.With the constant threat of the vile creatures he must quickly become a man and defend his Race from the approaching disaster. the synopsis and title will probably change later on And I think it gets better after arc 1 ch 3 The real story won't begin untill the heroes are summoned so you may feel a little bored while Im building the world and te mc' s personality. I wanted to state that this novel will start with a lighter tune but then get dark real fast. For the sexual content: it wont happen untill much longer. And when it happens it wont be overly explicit. Gore and traumatising content: It wont be at the level of nauseous but it may be too so just to be safe. This is my first try on writing novels so I welcome all of your criticism either good or bad. And lastly english isn't my native tounge so expect some grammer mistakes.But I will work on that part I promise.

Gamer
This story is abandoned and has not been authorized for distribution on any sites but RoyalRoad. Given the Gamer ability after shattering a crystal inside a game, Jon's world is upturned as he is thrown into a life he considered fantasy. Making new enemies and encountering a god, he cannot escape the quest which is forced on him. Different worlds and different situations, can he come out on top? He's neither perfect nor a saint, he is Jon. Welcome to Gamer. This has been dropped, I didn't like the way I forced a few plotpoints and I lost my notes on the story itself. Read below if you want to be spoilered. As far as I recall, he would change race into a higher human after using a spell to overload his mana repeatably until his body forcibly adapts, he would train up his rift usage spell with some better targets than God's Realm because he keeps hitting his stats limit until the cost lowers enough that he can actually grind it. His world is being invaded by multiple worlds, so the god had many backup plans where a lot of people went into their own fantasy settings and came back to defend Earth. Jon never is the strongest one out there, he has to keep grinding and grinding before he gets stronger than the other heroes, and at that point the invasion is nearing the final stretch. Jon's two biggest advantages is that he can keep grinding without hitting a cap he can't evolve, and that even when he is eventually killed. He would have respawned in the nearest 'Safe Zone' after dropping a level and everything he did to gain that level. I also had a bunch of ideas for mini-arcs where he would play in multiple worlds in multiple situations, not that great of an idea in retrospect.
