[Synopsis - One can say that Greed is a cardinal sin, but what if Greed could be used to save or improve the lives of others? Blessed or Cursed with the power of converting caps into both items and technology, one Jacob Higgs is destined to either change the wasteland forever, or get stomped by the countless enemies that would see his fall before he can rise from the streets of New Vegas.]

[Cafe] 124 – A Small Vacation Part 3

“What did you do?!” Superman asked, furious as he looked at the carnage before him, all done by Joshua and Amhrad before him. 

“Eliminated the threat,” Amhrad’s voice chillingly remarked as his boot remained over the crushed skull of a man. 

“You…YOU,” Superman started, only to be interrupted by Joshua, “Defended ourselves against men that would have seen us dead before you returned. We did only what was necessary to end the threat to ourselves, the rem...

[Empire] 11 – First Contact Part 1

As the Leviathan got closer and closer to the Earth, I realized a fatal mistake. Humanity, while behind in stellar navigation and many other areas compared to the Zerg Swarm, was far ahead in others, especially in the realm of technology. They had likely already noticed the Leviathan's approach and entrance into the Sol System and knew the Leviathan was approaching the planet.

As the Leviathan was nearing the moon, I finally took control of my new shell and let the Brood Mother regain c...

[Empire] 10 – A One-Hundred-Year Voyage’s End

A century passed before the blink of an eye as the Swarm developed far faster than I could have imagined. The Home System of the Zerg has undergone a profound transformation, as each terrestrial planet, including the one closest to the sun, has been inhabited, and vast advancements have been made with the Zerg and the Swarm as a whole. 

Crèche has become a citadel of the Zerg, with a supermassive Zerg Organism now called the Bulwark floating above the planet, with more than a doze...

[Ecanto] 28 – Consequences for birthing the Erdtree in Skyrim

As the roots entangled around me, I found my consciousness fading somewhat. The roots that wrapped around me moved me to the ground, where they began to cradle my body protectively. The thick and small golden roots poured healing magicka into every inch of my body, flooding it with blissful restoration that made me feel as if I were lying on a cloud. 

The tree was designed for two purposes. The first, and most obvious, was to heal, to mend, to fix what was broken. The second purpos...

Multiversal Empire Decision, First Contact

So, in the Multiversal Empire Fic, that features the Zerg in Mass Effect, the Zerg will soon be upon the Earth, this poll, is to decide what the Zerg and the Queen will do when they encounter Humanity, knowing that a future Human is destined to save the Galaxy, the same Galaxy the Zerg now live in, the same Galaxy that has tens of thousands of giant super powerful murder bots in the Void of space, waiting to invade.

1st Option: Assimilation of Humanity, the Zerg Brood-Mother aboard the ...

The answer is simple, you cause Chaos and use the knowledge in your mind to fuck wit...

[Tainted Lands] 11 – Red Sky and Attack

As I spent the next couple of days playing with Mana Shaping, I started working on making the largest golem yet, fashioned out of several logs that were melded into one another to shape a humanoid log that looked natural, standing half my height. It had two small crevices to symbolize eyes, yet lacked a mouth or nose. It had no ‘hair’ and its head was perfectly round, or as round as I could make it. 

I wanted to explore what else I could add to the Golem over the next several d...

[Multiversal Empire] 9 – Voyage into the Stars

It took less than a year, but the Leviathan and my Proto-Brood Mothers were ready. 

A fourth of the Proto-Brood Mothers were loaded onto the Leviathan and placed into a kind of hibernation to preserve energy on the Leviathan, along with what I decided to call a Swarm ‘Legion’ being placed aboard as well. 

A single Swarm Legion would contain ten thousand Zerg Strains, mostly in the form of close-quarter combatants, long-range combatants, fliers, diggers, and several O...

[God of Games] 8 – Playing with Magic

Once I had twisted the single strand of Divine Energy to the point of morphing into Mana, I shuddered as the energy suddenly flooded my form, the sheer amount of mana filling my being from ‘head’ to ‘toe.’

Wrangling the energy under control with my will, I guided the energy to my center, where I began to condense and compact the mana into a sphere. Once I had it contained, I let out a sigh of relief before hearing a knock at the door. 

Standing up, I stepped over to t...

[Dwemer] 3 – Escape

<> 3 <>

With the floor of my prison covered in the bodies of the monsters, I felt the creeping Magicka exhaustion begin to take its toll on my mind and body. My veins felt as if they were on fire, my vision grew hazy and unfocused, while my mind began to slow and struggle to remain clear and focused.

I had experienced Mana Exhaustion many times in my youth, but back then, my capacity to hold magicka was far less than it is now that I am an adult, leading to Mana Exhaus...

[Encanto] 27 – Birth of a Golden Tree

As it turns out, a lot of people needed help. From the poor farmer with bad knees, mercenaries with light to grievous wounds, to even the occasional Companion who needed a patch up after a job. The head priestess of this little hospital was below me in rank when it came to Restoration magic, so I was getting swamped by people whom Danicia could not heal.

I started getting so fed up with it, I stepped towards Danicia, who was using Greater Healing to heal the wounds of a mercenary who se...

[Rising Star] 4 – First Contract Part 3 (Final)

It took another week for the letter I sent to have received a response from the Military.

[Greetings, Dr. Karstein. 

    We have received your inquiry and relevant documents on your Project: Vishpala and we are interested in learning more about the Project you are working on.

[Last Hope] 16 – Updates and more Games

As the chaos of my actions caused a storm of activity throughout the concourse, I stayed in my room and continued to work. Using my extensive knowledge of computers, I began making my own OS using Robert House’s OS as a base, saving me a lot of work while spending some time on the side to create a few simple games that I’d upload to the Network once finished.

Chess, Go, and finally, I was almost finished with the first Half-Life that I felt would hit well with the Scientists of the ...

[Multiversal Empire] 8 – Research Bears Fruit

Twenty Years, that is how long it took to refine the instant transportation and make it viable for larger organic structures like the Leviathan, but I would likely need another decade to refine the organ further so that it could jump to another system. At its current level, the instant transportation was only good for interplanetary jumps, though even then, it currently only reached the Magma World. 

Of course I didn’t test or experiment with this special organ on the Leviathan, ...

[Cafe] 123 – A Small Vacation Part 2

[A/N: Hitting walls constantly with these Cafe chapters, once this is posted, I'm going to take a week to try and make a plan for the next couple of chapters to hopefully make them easier to write without so much struggle, for reference, I've spent the better part of a day writing just this chapter and hitting walls constantly]

The three stood in awkward silence before Joshua focused on the Alien and spoke, his voice calm and even, maybe even a bit surprised: “I heard you worship the ...

[Lone Wanderer] 7 – Checkpoint

As I slipped a soldier's bloody armor over my clothes, the others gathered together and talked.

When I was ready, I walked over with a sword at my hip, a new crossbow in hand, and as many bolts as I could carry in a quiver on my back. Sure, this did mean I had to carry more weight, but better more weight than ending up dead.

"Alright, what's the plan?" Nepheli asked, axe resting on her shoulder, and her knight standing behind her as still as a statue.

"First, we'll need to s...

[God of Games] 7 – Learning about Magic

[One Week Later, in the Domicile of Sirus, God of Games]

I watched Otis as he continued to flee North, and much to my surprise, even with his...intelligence, he was making significant progress with the status, though his leveling speed was slowing down with most dangers becoming less than what he needed to grow. Still, at this time, I had not been sitting idly.

Through a trade of what little faith Otis had given me so far, I managed to obtain a tome on the subject of Magic. You se...

[Lamb Freed] 8 – Humanitarian Efforts

Within an hour, I had a makeshift kitchen set up along one of the warehouse's walls, Booker helping with some of the heavy lifting as we unloaded box after box from small tears before getting to work. My idea was simple: food, water, and decent necessities were scarce within Shantytown, and the supply coming in was not even close to being enough to supply the district. 

I had an infinite supply of everything a city could ever need. So, I wanted to earn some brownie points with the ...

[Dwemer] 2 – Imprisonment

<> 2 <>

With a flash of light, I felt my soul and essence freeze as my cells became overcharged with enough magicka to rival that of one of the Et’Ada. 

Letting the ritual continue, I felt the Magicka begin to burn away at my soul. The sheer amount and purity were too much for my mortal soul. 

Yet, despite the unimaginable agony such damage caused me, it lasted for only a brief few moments, as my flesh charred and burned under the intensity of the Mag...

[Multiversal Empire] 7 – Multiplanetary Swarm

Years continued to pass, Creche as more organic ships and biometalic asteroids piloted by more complex and specially designed Overminds were created and launched at the other plants in the system. These vessels carried thousands and thousands of Zerg organisms and creep tumors within them. They comprised layers and chitinous material with an outer 'hull' made of bio-metal that was as tough as steel.

As these vessels had nothing to help slow them down, most of the Zerg on board the ship ...

[Tained Lands] 10 – Home Improvements

How much time has passed? Two weeks. Two weeks have passed since I found myself experiencing this lifestyle change. I'd grown a bit disheveled and had a bit of a beard coming in, not that I minded, and my home, which was once sparse and lonely, was now lively due to the Golems I had wandering about, even if they were not intelligent enough to do anything but basic tasks.

I've done nothing but train, exercise, and play with magic for an entire week, leading to some decent gains.

[Dungeon of Stories] 45 – Quarantine

[New Vegas Quarantine Zone]

At a tremendous speed, makeshift fortifications were erected around the spatial anomaly. Several NCR OSI operatives stood around the tear in space, devices in hand, measuring the tear for anything, some kind of energy or even anomalies that the human eye couldn't see, yet their scanners detected nothing, too primitive to detect the pure Mana radiating from the portal.

They had not noticed, but the streams of pure mana leaking through the portal...

[Cafe] 121 – A small vacation Part 1

[A/N: I've rewritten this chapter multiple times, still not a fan. I continuously kept hitting walls as I wrote this, sorry if its not up to par]

Amhrad has been alive for a long time—far longer than the average Space Marine. He has seen much war and loss. He has seen the best and worst of humanity, yet he never had the honor of seeing Holy Terra in his lifetime. 

Yet…he was here. Long before the fall and rise of mankind. Long before the God Emperor took his rightful plac...

[Bringing Life] 2 – Bountiful Growth

It had begun the process of expanding its root network through the caverns below, burrowing through the earth in every direction, gaining more nutrients and water to continue sustaining and expanding the network.

The strange flying creatures had already begun making nests within the cavern, using a peculiar mixture of resin made from bile, dirt, and excrement. 

While of poor quality, this resin proved to be a natural source of insulation for the creatures, as the speed of the...

[God of Games] 6 – Questions

Once the fight cleared up and Bronze Knight left the podium he stood upon to oversee the battle, I made my way to him, having to skirt past several Gods of various shapes and sizes, one of which interested me due to the fact that they looked like coiling lightning along floating stones.

I found said God speaking to Apline and Gero, one of whom looked proud while the other looked indignant. 

Waiting for the conversation to end, I waited for the trio to split apart before stepp...

Artor Amhrad was a simple man. Since he became a Space Marine all those centuries ago, he believed in one thing: the glory of the God-Emperor of Mankind. 

For nearly a millennium, he has served as an Angel under the Emperor of Mankind and as the Chapter Master of the Astral Knights for centuries.
