Indiana Jones: Antiquity Defense Guild

David Webb, a veteran museum curator, dies only to wake up in 1932 Manhattan in the body of James Caldwell, a wealthy socialite with a dangerous cocaine habit and a wasted fortune. He quickly discovers he is bound to the Antiquity Defense Guild (A.D.G.) System, a cosmic directive tasked with a singular goal: prevent the weaponization of ancient supernatural power. While Indiana Jones hunts for fortune and glory, James is building a global shadow organization. Using his future knowledge of archaeology and the System's management tools, he recruits agents, secures artifacts before the Nazis can find them, and prepares for the awakening of ancient darkness in the East. He isn't just a treasure hunter; he is the architect of a secret kingdom standing between humanity and the things man was never meant to wield. The System: Antiquity Defense Guild (A.D.G.) Artifact Classification & Attunement: The system identifies the "Threat Level" of ancient relics. James can "Attune" to specific artifacts to unlock their powers or safely "Contain" them within the Guild's specialized vaults to prevent them from corrupting the world. Organization Management (The Guild): A kingdom-building interface that allows James to manage finances, build secret bases (like the New York HQ or the Singapore branch), and recruit specialized personnel. He can track agent loyalty and skill progression through the Agent & Personnel System. Temporal Proximity Alerts: The System provides countdowns to "Significant Events" (such as the 1935 Temple of Doom timeline), allowing James to position his resources and agents years in advance to mitigate catastrophe. Research & Development (R&D): By analyzing artifacts and historical data, the Guild can develop "Wards" and protective technologies that allow normal humans to face supernatural threats without being instantly overwhelmed.

My Vampire System In The Dragon World

In a broken world of ash and black clouds, dragons rule the sky and old vampire clans rule the ground. Human life is cheap, sold in chains to dark lords who drink blood and wage silent wars in the night. Kairn is a nameless slave boy in an iron mine at the edge of a dead kingdom, beaten, starving, and waiting to die. On the night a blood-red comet crosses the sky, a dying dragon crashes into the mine and burns everything Kairn has ever known. As he lies under stone and fire, a cold voice speaks in his mind and offers him a deal: live as a cursed vampire, bound to a hidden System that hungers for blood, or die as nothing. Kairn chooses to live. He wakes as a newborn vampire with a status screen carved into his soul, weak stats, and one strange path: “Draconic Bloodbound – locked.” To grow stronger, he must hunt in the dark, feed on those who would kill him, and survive the hunt of both humans and elder vampires who fear what he might become. As Kairn’s level rises, his powers twist his body, his mind, and his sense of mercy. He learns that the System is not a neutral guide but a chain forged by the First Sire, an ancient monster who once enslaved dragons and turned their blood into fuel for vampire evolution. The only way to break that chain is to claim a dragon of his own and evolve into something the world has never seen. In a land where the sun is a rare ghost behind storm clouds and trust is a quick way to die, Kairn must decide what he will sacrifice: his last human feelings, his few fragile allies, or the whole burning world above. There will be no heroes, only hunters and prey.
