He was a relatively normal guy, he really was. So, why was it that after his death, unfortunate thing that it was, he woke up once more. And he did so in a similar but also very different world from his own and with a very strange Gamer System… But he had a second chance at life, so that was ok. What wasn't ok was that he had no idea what world he was in. That could be a problem.

An experiment gone wrong, or possibly right? A nascent Kaleidoscope opens his eyes. A Fate/DxD/Multicross story. Thanks to TheMadLad for the cover image.

Ever since birth, Siegfried has been able to commune with the Norse gods through small screens and quests that they gave him. It was a simple life until everything began to change as he grew older and entered the world as a man. Now the gods bayed him to raid his neighbors, clash against the greatest names in history, and carve his name so deep into history it will never fade.

An average guy from Earth, dropped into the boots of Jaune Arc with text from The Gamer in front of his eyes. Life may be a game, but the stakes are all too real. Eventual poly/small 'harem' (like 2-3 partners max). Rated M for language.

Left in a new world with hardly an explanation for his arrival, the only thing left for him to do was to keep walking forward one step at a time for those watching behind him.

On one hand, being reincarnated with an admittedly lackluster System is a dream come true. On the other hand, being thrown into the middle of a Civil War isn't exactly the best start to an Isekai adventure. (GamerSI-OC) (GamerxHarem)

In the inferno at the end of the Fourth Grail War, a broken boy becomes host to another broken thing, drawn by the dark light of the flames, leading to both becoming something no one could have predicted. Shirou x Harem. Crossover with the RH!Warhammer 40000, one of my other stories. NOT canon to the Roboutian Heresy !

Shirou Emiya wanted to become a hero. That was clear to all who truly know him. For a long time though, he lacked the power to actually achieve that goal. No longer. No longer will he lack the power, now that the Hammer of the Odinson has chosen him as new wielder. Prepare for Thunder. ShirouxMultiple, Thor-Shirou.

Emiya Kiritsugu was happy living the rest of his short days. He had put his past behind him... until he began to dream of futures that had yet to be. Let it be known that the Magus Killer was not dangerous simply because he was dying and had no plans to fight. Slowly being put on Royal Road over time.

After several years of traveling the world's battlefields, Enforcer Shirou Emiya finds himself in Shin Tokyo. Leave it to him to go on vacation and end up trapped in yet another battle royal between magical beings. Inspired by Gabriel Blessing's In Flight.

Broken down, warped beyond repair and traumatised he fought on, sacrificing and adapting as need be. He lost so much but now he is past the Nightmare and returned to a world he scarcely remembers. With a broken mind and memories distorted, how will he move forward with his hands stained in the red of so many? How will he make up for his failures? And why is he a child?

"With swords that aren't yours, with skills that aren't yours, for dreams that aren't yours. Your entire existence is a lie!" - "Then I'll show you that even fake dreams can become reality." A different choice, a different path, a different FATE. Shirou/Multi

When the illustrious Arc family attempts to raise their only male heir, Jaune Arc, as a sheltered and genteel high society type, he rejects their efforts, trains on his own and then runs away at the very first opportunity. Watch as an absurdly undertrained but clever Jaune, changes his name, makes several female friends, and attempts to make it in Hunter society. Jaune/Harem

Twelve years after the Holy Grail War, Emiya Shirou has lost everything. Unwillingly caught in a conflict between aliens he has to decide whether his ideals have died for good or if they can soar again... on wings of steel. - POST FATE -

Honestly, I should have expected it. After all, my line of work would always be screwing with me when I don't need to. What I did not expect was getting myself into a world where Gods are alive and around, Angels and Demons are real, and the residents are really weird. I blame Zelretch for this. Rated T for the time being. (Yes, the title has been changed / Sporadic Updates)

Third in series, read prequels or be confused. Harry had spent his whole life wishing for magic to be more abundant, and that was precisely what he got. He wasn't even particularly upset about the many serious dangers inherent in such a thing, for what was life without challenge? The irony of ending up in Azeroth after all the references was a bit on the nose, though.

The story in The Road to Hell continues as Xander Harris comes to terms with his new status in the world and the world starts to come to terms with his role.

YAHF: The Other Side of the Coin. Xander Harris finds himself inside Lex Luthor's body in the DC Universe. He's sure his friends will eventually rescue him, so he decides to toss a few monkey wrenches into the workings of the universe while he's there. Everyone has to have a hobby after all.

The presence of a foreign soul may have unexpected side effects on a growing child. I am Lord Volde...Harry Potter. I'm Harry Potter. In which Harry is insane, Hermione is a Dark Lady-in-training, Ginny is a minion, and Ron is confused.

A joke of Chaos daemon sent two unlikely allies - an Eldar Farseer and an Imperial Storm trooper, through the Warp and into another Universe. In this place, everything is alien to them. Except for one thing - war. War is something they know very well. (Story adopted by Regina Dea. New author starts from Chapter 21)

He awoke in a strange land, remembering only pain and the ravenous desire to search for something lost to him, only to catch the eyes of a passing raven. She thought she had found a priceless weapon, an indispensable tool better than any she could have plundered, in the form of an amnesiac kid. What she received however, was something far more precious.

Victory can prove bitter, especially when you're the only one alive to see it. With the world in chaos and everyone he ever loved dead, Jaune Arc makes a deal with the devil for one last chance to go back and change it all. But devils don't play by the same rules as humans, and Salem never did say how far back he'd go. Or how much deeper the war between her and Ozpin really went.

The first Fate/Stay Night-Campione! crossover. A Heavens Feel Shirou finds that himself and Illya have been pulled into another world by a corrupted Grail. There his actions lead to him becoming the Eighth god killing Devil King. Now he has to deal with becoming someone who rules where he walks, even if he doesn't want to. That and trying to find a way back home.

When the dementor attack presents Harry with an opportunity to begin to fight back he gladly sets himself on the path to have a hand in his future. But as time goes on, it's clear that not all is the same as it once was. Why has his scar stopped hurting? What are these seemingly random objects he's drawn to? How deep does the connection between him and Voldemort truly run? Post GoF

Summary: Hikigaya Hachiman, shortly after an odd Valentine's day, finds himself in a new world filled with magic, monsters, and gods. Though he knows not how he got there, he knows that the only way back to his home is through the Dungeon. Also posted on Spacebattles and RoyalRoad.

In the aftermath of a peaceful summer comes the Goblet of Fire and the chance of a quiet year to improve himself, but Harry Potter and the Quiet Revision Year was never going to last. A more mature, darker Harry, bearing the effects of 11 years of virtual solitude. GoF AU. There will be romance... eventually. Remastered and sequel ongoing!

He was an anomaly not meant to be in this world, yet fate would deem otherwise. After all, the fate of the world just may hang in the balance.

It only takes a single disharmonious element to throw off the entire composition. Fifty years before Robert Baratheon was to ascend the Iron Throne, Westeros receives one hell of a bad musician. Harry never did care about any player other than himself.

With his final breath, he destroyed the Holy Grail. Devoid of purpose after discarding his ideals, he laid down to die. Through the work of fate Emiya Shirou does not die, but instead awakes in a new world. Now, he who no longer wishes to be a hero will have to forge his path once again in a world in need of heroes.

When I sold my soul to the Devil, I thought I was prepared for anything. I wasn't. I didn't expect him to be a her. Or dressed up as a magical girl carrying a pink wand tipped with a cheerful yellow star. Her being a prankster however didn't come as much of a surprise. You know, the Bible would have been a whole lot more interesting if they included stuff like this. Complete AU

In a world where everyone around him seemed to possess amazing powers, Jaune's own Ability had always seemed meager. Yet, perhaps that power holds potential beyond anything anyone could have imagined. Maybe the path to growing up starts with facing one's fears. And becoming a hero along the way, even if he didn't plan on it. [OP Jaune, alternate universe, harem, lemons]

I thought reincarnation meant that you started as a baby? It would have been much easier that way, and to make matters worse, apparently the joker who sent me here thought it would be funny if I ended up being one of the most ineffective antagonists in anime history. Well, we'll see who has the last laugh when I'm done with this universe. Back!

Shirou never expected to be summoned to another world, but now all he wants to do is finish save it so that he could return home to his family. But it order to return home, he will first have to survive. First rule of surviving as a summoned hero, don't trust ANYONE. (Retiring this story)

"If something sounds too good to be true, then it probably is." Jaune learned this lesson the hard way at a young age. Remnant might be full of liars, phonies, and fakes, but that wouldn't stop him from becoming a hero!

Life isn't always fair. Sometimes it feels like the world is targeting you. In the end some people are dealt a bad hand in life while others are dealt a winning hand. Other times a dimension hopping Troll deals you a hand that will change your life forever.

Every family has its odd member, the one that doesn't fit. Jaune was just that, the black sheep. He had always wanted to be the hero, to be a Huntsman. But when your name is Jaune Salem Arc - Prince of the Grimm - and your mother is understandably against the idea, what is a young man to do? Why, run away to attend Beacon in pursuit of a dream, of course. What could go wrong?

Godhood has not simplified the life of Harry Dresden. Between his war with the Titan Chronos, the Feminicidal God Moloch, and a cavalcade of nastyness from before the dawn of time you'd think it couldn't get any worse. Unfortunately for Harry, Mab is more than happy to shake things up. Sequel to "God's Eye."

After two years, they are finally out of SAO, but the real world is not how they remembered it. They are now strangers in a familiar land. Now they have to try to adjust to a new world... again. But what about those they left in the real world? Will they like the changes that everyone has experienced?

A man from Earth wakes up to find himself stuck in the body of a fictional teenage boy with an ability that turns his life into a video game and foreknowledge of events to come. What could possibly go wrong? A take on the RWBY/Gamer crossover niche with an SI twist, a focus on world and character building, and fleshing out some of the details RT missed. Rated 'M' for a reason.

The Grimm closed in, as the ember in his soul shivered and then surged forth, burning irrepressibly as he faced death once more. "It's going to be a long night" The 9-year-old murmured, his tone quivering in a manner that might have been mistaken for terror… if not for the nigh maniacal grin stretched across his face "Well, just another dance at death's border, I guess" Gamer!Jaune

A few small changes can make a world of difference. Knowledge given at the beginning of ones can career can turn a hopeless loser into a shinobi of strength and skill. Differences in a history that have long since passed can create a totally different outcome from what we might expect. This is the story of Naruto Uzumaki. This is the tail of these small shifts in life.

With his life turned into a Game, Harry now has to raise a Phoenix, uncover the Founders' darkest secrets, deal with political manipulations and live through Hogwarts all while trying desperately to not swear too much.

What happens when a hero of another story gets mixed up in the shenanigans of a pervert and his crew?

When the Dursleys go to Japan, Dudley accidentally activates a security in MBI's locals that kill them. Now, what will MBI and Karasuba do with the child they found when they checked the Dursleys' car? Rated M for mention of torture and child abuse, and future language and gore. There will be some Dumbledore, Potters, and some Weasley Alive!Potters [DISCONTINUED]

Jaune had no interest in Ozpin's latest training initiative, especially when it pit boys against girls across Beacon. Cowardice or not, he intended to hide and wait the whole thing out. Leading the male alliance wasn't part of the plan, nor was becoming mankind's final hope. He was a coward, an idiot and a weakling. It was just a shame no one would believe him when he said so!

A chance collision early in Naruto's life will irrevocably change the path he takes; what happens when Naruto's views are shifted before even his dream to become Hokage? Where will his new path take him, and how many strings will he pull or threads will he trip over along the way? Puppeteer!Naruto.

Harry Dresden gets misplaced after the events of the Darkhallow. Suffice it to say tossed to the edge of the galaxy, he still manages to stir up trouble. After all, the universe exists to trouble Harry Dresden.

The magical world isn't as ignorant of muggles as it seems, and Lucius Malfoy has an idea on how to get Harry out of his way. Now Harry is in Japan and trapped in a virtual world of swords. Cut off from his friends and allies, and what he knew, he has to make new ones and get used to an illusory world that has become all too real. Welcome, to SAO Harry. Do try to survive.

Harry Potter catches Voldemort's AK to the noggin only to find out that his life is a video game and he forgot to save. So what does he do? Does he return on Hard mode and work for the challenge? Heck No! Harry uses every exploit, grind, or underhanded tactic he can get his hands on. His life may be a video game, but nobody plays Harry Potter. HIATUS

Gen, AU. In a world where Neville is the Boy-Who-Lived, Harry still grows up with the Dursleys, but he learns to be more private about what matters to him. When McGonagall comes to give him his letter, she also unwittingly gives Harry both a new quest and a new passion: Transfiguration. Mentor Minerva fic. Rated for violence. COMPLETE.

It all belongs to Jo!

THIS IS NOT MINE. It began after I got rejected by Signal again, though at the time I had no idea what was happening. Titles and levels suddenly appeared above people's heads and then weird things began to happen, as if I was in a game. And then, I realize I was in a game. But...if my life is a game, I'm going to win it. My name's Jaune Arc and I'm the Gamer. RWBY/The Gamer.

There were very few things that could rile a 25 year old Naruto Uzumaki up. He was perfectly content to sit in his home, work his normal job, study at a normal school, and in his free time, tinker (read: upgrade in a potentially life endangering manner) with whatever happened to catch his interest. This obviously did not include Devils, or Angels, or Fallen Angels.

Pain and misery, the two constants in Harry Potter's life awaken in him something that has not been seen for several centuries. Will it mean the salvation of the magical world, or will it be its dissolution to nothingness? Concepts from Naruto, and Crossover with Dresden Files later.

What if there were no Humans in Mass Effect? What if there were Orks instead? The Council would have a lot less sleep, for one thing.

My day had started on a down note. First Elaine had been sick, then I found out my mentor wanted to shove me in a straitjacket. It shouldn't have been a surprise when I died. But, nothing could have prepared me for my life being saved by a devil—or becoming one myself. Still, the magical girl was the biggest surprise.

And that the past is never far behind. Cover by GeneralHarryHousin.

How does the Grail choose a Master or a Servant? Fact of the matter is, it knows the difference between want and need. Masters of the Fourth Holy Grail War know they want a strong Servant, but the Grail knows the Servants they need.

AU. Xander Harris went as something else for Halloween. A figure shrouded in legend and myth, but remembered incorrectly only through media. Now, because of the changes to his choices the costume influenced, the PTB want him dead. Their lackey was barely able to do that, banishing from the world, but was interfered with by two gods. Now in PJ world, how will this new Xander act?

BtVS/Naruto/Ranma/Sailor Moon In this sequel to 'A Distant Relation' Team Anko is has arrived in Sunnydale and they better get used to the wierdness quick because the Hellmouth isn't going to give them time to ease into things.

Dark curses don't play nice- not even with each other. When nine year-old Harry is bitten by a werewolf, the horcrux fights back. The result could only happen to Harry Potter. Canon-ish for the first three years of Hogwarts - AU from that point forward.

Harry Dresden had thought he'd seen it all. So had the voice inside his head for that matter. But when one of his all too typical wild weekends ends up with him stranded far outside the Outer Gates, beyond the stretch of even creation itself, he finds out that there are other things out there, laying in wait. Still doesn't make it any easier to make rent on time though...

Adventure/Humor/Romance. The Sandaime waited too long to approach Naruto, who had no interest in becoming Hokage by then. Another dream already rested in his heart, a dream that would drive him much further than anyone would have believed. SealMaster!Naruto Older!NarutoxFem!Kyuubi

The Elemental Nations are in ruins, the villages are destroyed, and the last of the Shinobi are on the run. Naruto's last ditch effort to stop Madara lands him and his last companion in a new world.

He's searching for the diary, but while things are similar, his presence has altered enough to keep him on his toes! No pairings. Dumbledore/Goodguys bashing. 2nd in series. Rated M because I'm paranoid. Everything belongs to Jo!

There wasn't even a good reason to get involved in this Sekirei plan. He wasn't an Ashikabi, in fact he wasn't even certain he could love anymore. That future Archer had accused him of seemed closer than ever... but while people still suffered, what could he do? This bloody path I walk, without thanks or acknowledgement, though my heart may become iron, I must never fall to regret.

Honestly, Shirou was beginning to think that he should be used to this; being unwittingly selected to take part in brutal tournament that he had no idea existed until he found himself in the middle of it. Then again, second times the charm, right?

He lived among the humans and all he's ever felt was hate and loneliness while being called a monster. It's ironic that sometimes the cruelest monsters are humans themselves. Tired of his life he becomes what they feared and embraced his inner demon and leaves to live among the monsters. Naruto x Inner Moka(Ura) Tsukune x Outer Moka(Omote)

This is the story of a very unlikely pairing in a love, hate…more hate relationship. This is a cynical look back on how it all began and the maddening realization of why it hasn’t ended. A Harry, Pansy pairing. Yes, I have undertaken the implausible.

If you read just one fiction tonight make it this one. Go inside the mind of Harry Potter as he deals with betrayals, secrets and wild adventures. Not your usual fanfic.
