    Summary

    A man wakes up in a frozen hut south of the Wall with no memory, no name, and a status screen. He dies of hypothermia three times before he figures out how to keep a fire going.

    No noble birth. No convenient canon insertion point. Just a villager in the Gift in 288 AC, with a leveling system, an autosave that rewinds time when he dies, and the growing suspicion that he's not the first person the system has chosen.

    Gamer AU. OC SI. Slow-burn progression fantasy. Canon divergence.

    Summary

    These violent delights have violent ends, and all that glitters is not gold. Lysa is a terrible person doing terrible things, and deserves every terrible consequence that she will bring upon others and possibly herself as a result. Given that she's been reborn as a woman in Westeros, however, that's a price she's willing to pay. It's only gunpowder; what's the worst that can happen?

    Or, a villain protagonist makes trainwreck life choices, therefore fitting in with everyone in this god awful world. Readers may rubberneck in hatred or fascination, at your own choosing.

    Summary

    Eddard Stark doesn't make it back to the North as the banners gather in rebellion, slipping beneath the waves of the Bite during an ambush in the storm. Someone else, from a world like ours, rises from the waters in his place.

    The Old Gods have stolen a soul to right the wrongs of the coming years and avert disaster. Will it work? Who knows? But someone once said that if you want to change the future, you'd better start by changing what you do in the present.

    Summary

    An MCU fan from our world wakes up in the body of Wanda Maximoff prior to the events of Avengers: Age of Ultron. Resolving not to meet the same fate as the original, she seeks to use her powers and metaknowledge to create a better world, stopping villains ahead of time and saving thousands or millions of lives in the process. However, there are gaps in her knowledge and reality is more fragile and complicated than she expects. Butterfly effects from her actions rapidly start spiraling out of control, setting her in opposition to heroes she'd rather have as allies. The Scarlet Witch is prophesied to either rule the cosmos or annihilate it, and she intends to save this universe... even if she has to drag it kicking and screaming the whole way.

    - Crossposted on Royal Road, SpaceBattles, Sufficient Velocity and Scribble Hub (same username/title).
    - Will contain some slow-burn polyamory romance but nothing explicit enough for a content warning. Mostly female/female, but protagonist is bisexual.
    - New chapters will be posted once a fortnight on Tuesday (if I am weak) or Wednesday (if I stick to my actual schedule) evening, AEST.
