The Ability Era

The Ability Era

Disclaimer: There is some violence(blood and gore), and some crude language. This story is currently under hiatus. Not sure when I will continue.The story revolves around this organization called the Intergalactic Brigade Force(IBF) which is kind of like a special police made up of people with abilities(powers). The ability persons(AP's) are ranked by letter, Squad A being the best, and Z the worst. The beginning of the story focuses on Squad Y and their mission to stop an arms dealer called Red Coyote. The focus shifts away from them and shows the perspective of a plethora of characters such as a robot cowboy, a crazy mind controller, some weird prison inmates, and later shifts to a school of AP children. I think some may find it boring and maybe complicated but I hope you enjoy if you choose to read.…

Four thousand years before Anakin Skywalker was born, the Jedi thrived as the guardians of peace in the galaxy. The Republic, weakened by a costly war with the Mandalorians, faces now another great threat. A false Sith Empire created by two fallen Jedi, Revan and Malak, has risen from the ashes of that war. Now the Republic is on the brink of defeat to their once great hero, now turned Darth Revan. Hoping to protect the Republic at all costs, the Jedi dispatch an elite strike force to capture the Dark Lord. To the dismay of the Jedi, Revan is betrayed and killed by his apprentice Darth Malak, who proclaims himself the new Dark Lord of the Sith. Now with the entire galaxy at stake, the Jedi and the Republic must go to extreme lengths if they are to survive the seemingly endless forces the new Sith ruler commands. Only by the will of the Force, will they survive... This is a novelization of the popular video game by Bioware. One of my favorite stories within the Star Wars universe, I am putting my own little twists and style on this story in a way I could see potentially fitting into the new canon by Disney. I will be releasing new chapters periodically with the goal of trimming the story down a little bit as well. Enjoy, and of course constructive criticism always welcome, and if you like what you're reading, consider voting for my story.…

NOTE: THIS IS AN EARLY DRAFT. YOU'LL BE ABLE TO READ THE FINISHED VERSION ON THE WEBSITE ONCE IT LAUNCHES. **for the ladies** After The Passing of the Veil, humanity retreats into the Maya because everyone knows a hyper-realistic virtual universe is more appealing than a barren nuclear wasteland. In the Maya, you can "phase" any place or any time, real or imagined. All five senses are present, but biological urges like hunger, thirst and sleep are optional. It's reality, but better. Lawrence Padd is another Immersant visiting The Auburn Palace, greatest brothel in the history of personkind. The Palace is home to the Anodynes-- ordinary women and girls bestowed with great powers of seduction and sensation. Veritable demigods, they are renowned not only for their bodies but their singing voices, which give the listener an opiate-like, hallucinogenic high.Padd is a Repentant-- a cishet white male, lowliest of all demographics, forced to atone for his ancestors' sins through enforced social isolation. As he navigates the fantastical, strangely sinister vistas of humanity's true final frontier, he begins to have dreams featuring a deceptively familiar girl who preaches the end of all things. Though all Padd wants is to live his new eternity in peace, he soon finds himself caught between infinitely powerful forces that threaten existence itself.Cover art by Gerry Siorek Anodyne/character portraits credited to: Jane Nane-- https://www.artstation.com/janenane Dion Harris-- https://www.artstation.com/dionharris*No part of these stories may be reproduced in any written, electronic, recording or photocopying form without written permission of the author.Note-- I'll be posting this on RoyalRoad.com as well.…
