Costa-del-Deception by PunishedVarmint Follow me on Twitter for all my latest updates! And join my Discord to discuss upcoming projects with other fans! The sun shone brightly, as it always did, upon an ordinary morning in Costa del Sol. Beach-goers – many of whom were clad in nothing more than string bikinis and banana hammocks – either lay upon lounge chairs or batted volleyballs over nets. Shops had opened their doors to the throngs of tourists who flocked to the seaside village to collect trinkets and souvenirs of their vacat…

Alpha-Mission-Space-Pirate-Outpost by PunishedVarmint Follow me on Twitter for all my latest updates! It's been a while since I posted my last dice-generated story (the one where Sylvanas fights worgen), and I've made a loooooooot of changes since then. Basically I realized my rule system, as it stood, was way too complex and had too many moving variables to track. It was confusing and slowed down my progress. So I spent the last few weeks breaking everything down to its core components and running a few tests, and now I'm happy enough with…

Alpha-Mission-Space-Pirate-Outpost by PunishedVarmint Follow me on Twitter for all my latest updates! Samus touched down on the planet about a kilometer away from the space pirate outpost. She certainly didn’t want to alert the enemy to her presence, at least not until she fully understood what she was up against. Besides that, her power armor was still undergoing repairs from her last mission. Samus checked the status on her monitor and was pleased with the progress; her suit should be ready within the hour. But she could still scout the a…

Even Cyborg Ninjas Need Check-Ups by PunishedVarmint Follow me on Twitter for all my latest updates! “Come on now, Genji. Take off that ridiculous mask. There’s no need for such a thing around me.” “You’re right, sorry. Force of habit,” said Overwatch’s resident cyborg k sheepishly. The cold, sterile medical exam room-office hybrid that they met inside had frozen him in-place as a flood of pleasant memories came back, and for a moment Genji had forgotten himself. He reached up to unlatch the steel clips, and with a pressurized hiss the plate fe…

Rebellious-Affection by PunishedVarmint Follow me on Twitter for all my latest updates! The buzzing of an intercom wakes you from your light nap, and you reach out blindly to slap your palm against the button. “Yeah?” you ask, still half asleep. “Sir, we’re about to enter hyperspace. Just thought you should know.” “Yeah, thanks. Wake me up when we arrive.” “Will do. Uhh, sir!” You rest your head back on the pillow. Sir. Even two months after your promotion, it still sounds strange. When you had first jo…

In Service of the Lord Admiral by PunishedVarmint Follow me on Twitter for all my latest updates! Garrett Willowby had never amounted to anything in his life. Born into a relatively well-off merchant family, his early days of childhood had been wild and carefree, but eventually the ravages of constant war brought misfortune upon the family coffers. As the expectations and hardships of young adult life caught up with him, Garrett failed again and again to accept responsibility for anything in his life as he spiraled into abject poverty. And as…
