Hi there, self promo here! :wave:t2: I have two stories you may be interested in! There’s nothing cliche about either of them and the only story with some romance is the mid-end of MSP, but that’s not at all the story’s focal point. I have listed the genre of my stories as well as some other features that may peak your interest. I hope you’ll give them a shot if they intrigue you :blush:

Title Magicka: Within Her Soul
Author KylieJay
Genre Fantasy w/ drama, action, adventure
Features 3 episodes, full CC, some choices matter, advanced directing, overlays
Just when she’s reached her breaking point, Lucy stumbles across a world on the brink of war and everyone expects her to save them. Can she restore peace on Charkana and within herself?

Title My Secret Profession

This story features some pretty insane, mind blowing plot twists as secrets from years ago are revealed.

Also, there is a bit of romance?? Or like a love interest but his role in the story far exceeds being a love interest in Thick as Thieves by Spiegel, which if you haven’t read it yet is nothing short of a masterpiece.

Agreed x2000

I dunno. I know of more stories where you have the option to just not romance anyone, but I’m not sure if that’s what you’re looking for.

Hello!

There are a lot of great stories that fit all those criteria! - like many of the Magicka entries (including the ones written by @line123462 and @KylieJay as they have self-promoted here) if you’re into fantasy.

You can check out my Magicka recommendation thread on here if you want (It’s called Magicka Recommendations Part 1). None of the ones I’ve read so far have cliches, sex or bad boys - though some are romance-heavy (but not in a bad cliche way! They’re pretty gradual and well-developed :blush:)

A few of my favourite non-Magicka stories would be:

  • The Laboratory by @clara_b - this is a sci-fi mystery that I really loved reading. It really deserves a lot more reads than it already has :heart:

  • The Curse of Charlie by Sarah Kieser (can’t find her forum username…) - this one is Drama with some Fantasy elements. Basically Charlie - the MC in here - was an selfish and entitled spoiled brat who needed a witch to curse her to see the error in her ways. Hence the description I gave you, Charlie the MC has to go through a lot of character development and she really does! :sweat_smile:

  • K&T: Lexington by Melanie aka melo.episode on IG (can’t find her forum username) - This is an entry for the previous K&T contest and it’s really good! It is very different and it’s not as romance-heavy as the other K&T entries - and a bonus - it’s historical fiction! (we really need more historical fictions on Episode - I’m telling ya). In fact, you can choose not to be with the love interest if you wish :grin:

But as much as I love to support other authors, I would like to self-promote too! :grin:

Title: Magicka: The Trials of Fate
Description: When Dahlia and her fiance sought a witch who predicts the future of couples, she didn’t expect to find her answers in a test of illusions. Will Dahlia finally choose her own destiny?

Although my entry has magic and a plot stemmed from romantic elements, this is more about the MC finding herself and discovering which path in life she wants to take - the love interests are merely just symbols of these paths - you don’t have to date either of them if you don’t want to :grin:

Sorry for the super-long reply - there are just so many amazing stories that deserve to be noticed! :heart:

Hey. My story does include romance but there’s no “sex scenes” or things that imply that. lol.
The beginning chapters aren’t the best since I wrote them a long time ago, but they do get progressively more advanced and better written as the plot goes on. There are 48 chapter out and will be a total of 50.

Title: Relentless

Description: Leah and Xavier were abandoned on The Island as babies. Together, they try to figure out why. Along the away, they discover even more than they ever could have anticipated.

Genre: adventure, drama, romance, some action too. lol.

(The chapters do get longer. I wrote the beginning chapters a while ago, so the editing gets better later.)
