Path To Vendetta

Its the late 1990s, the tensions and hostile relations brought forth by the Cold war have began to thaw and the threat of another large scale war being fought has slowly settled into the past. However, behind this facade of "peace", numerous regional conflicts still remain in Africa, one of the last parts of world that has yet to be conquered by neither East or West. The African state of Zaire remains in the hands of Eastern backed guerilla insurgents, whom are pushing against the Western backed national army. Despite France's and Belgium's intervention in the region, allied casualties continue to hike up and more land is lost to the insurgent fighters. Soon, the world would begin condemning the insurgent fighters for their war crimes. However, in another bold move, the insurgents manage to kidnap and get a hold of the EU's defense commisioner and the director of the US' Department of Defense, both of whom heavily spoke out against the insurgents. The world now watches in shock, as seemingly out of nowhere, the threat of war was already returning. The extremity of the situation prompts the Joint Special Forces Command to take action, who soon begins working together with military organizations within their network to assemble a task force capable of dealing with a situation so fragile. Their mission, with 3 goals to be accomplished: To safely extract the EU's defense commisioner and the DOD's director out of the region, to finish the investigation started by the CIA recon squad and to hijack the insurgent forces in their war against the West.

Marvel: God of Spotlight, The Homelander

"I am not Superman. I am Homelander." The whisper was an internal prayer, a caustic reassurance. Outside the glass tower, the world saw only the Homelander, the Icon, the Man Who Flew the Bomb. They saw the perfect, smiling face of the hero who, in the chaos of the Battle of New York, carried a nuclear warhead through the wormhole and saved a city. The cheers from the streets below—the deafening, worldwide adoration—were the fuel for his ascension. He was crowned their king, a savior in star-spangled spandex. In this new reality, fame wasn't just influence; it was power. He had a system now: the Superstar System. The higher the popularity, the stronger the abilities. It was a viciously simple contract, one he embraced completely. "Matt," he purred into the spotlight, curing the blind lawyer's eyes on live television. "Your city needs an icon, not a devil. Let the light in." He assembled his own team—a perfectly marketed, perfectly managed Super Seven—with Spider-Man now running PR and Daredevil as his reformed protégé. Every action was a performance; every enemy, a prop. When the news of a purple alien named Thanos reached his gilded penthouse, Azu smiled, a blinding, dangerous flash for the cameras. "Thanos," he murmured, the adoration of billions surging through his veins, making his skin feel like charged steel. His eyes flared with a dazzling red light that promised annihilation. "I heard you're going to wipe out half of my fans?" He was trapped in the Marvel universe, now its most powerful celebrity. And the show had only just begun.

I Regressed with Divine Talents

In the dying world of Oros, talent is destiny. For Cian Valerius, destiny was a joke. Born with a "Scholar’s Soul" into a family of legendary border-warriors, he was a disappointment to his father and a target for the Silverian Hegemony. When the Abyssal Reach finally breached the walls of his home, Cian could only watch as his family was slaughtered and his house reduced to ash.
