It's like Narnia except instead of British children in WWII becoming kings and queens it's a bunch of 20-30 somethings from an insurance company becoming gods.But they don't know it yet.

My novel focusses on my original species called the Vritra; once part of the primordial Dragon Vritra who gifted the Sentient Mind to the Flesh of the world, he was scattered into billions of parts when slain by the hero Indra forming the now Vritra race. Vritra normally live up to 10.000 years, before their minds shut down and they die. Many believe it was the order of the world that demanded the Vritra to die, thus their main source of power is set to also become their undoing.

They remain the Dragon, yet are now something else entirely. Taking on humanity's appearance as a template for themselves, Vritra pose and act like the lesser races in order for them to understand them better. They still rule the Mind, taking care of the mortals of the world as was Vritra's main purpose and uphold the life orders established when the world was created.

I also love stories about immortals., Sharing my story here about werewolves, vampires, and other creatures that thrives in the dark., ^_^

I work with some immortal characters (gods, demons), though the MCs have supernatural lifespans instead of true mortality. Their lifespans are directly proportional to the strength of their magic.

(The backstory worldbuilding to that: I imagine magic as energy expenditure, and figure that to have very powerful magic, one must also have a very powerful/resilient physical constitution.)

One of my MCs is in his late 60s, but the developmental equivalent is ~35. Though he's definitely a little bit of a curmudgeon beneath that youthful face!

Both parts. And here's a snippet from my latest update.

“What?” blurted Moran, in puzzlement. He watched his adversary point at him, and then up. His eyes followed, to a spinning, silver, aeter sphere.

It buzzed in position, pulsated for a moment, and plummeted onto Moran’s face. He screamed in pain, with the heat searing away at his skin. His hands hastily slapped against the residual aeter, in vain. He gritted against the adversity, nonetheless, handling his spear to navigate a portion of his aeter to the defensive. It veiled the invading aeter in a thin layer and separated from the face. Moran beamed at the result, heaving his breaths to a calm – scarred, in pain, but with anger as well. “No more!”

mine is a surreal/realistic novel that involves DEMONS.

It starts off calm then goes off the rails as the story goes on. Part of a series.

What can I say? She is a Catmen.

Well... the New Gods are immortal unless another God strikes them down. ; D

oooooooooooh... I love Lady Death...

my novel isn't exactly immortality... but somehow is: my characters have many lives - they don't die of old age, they just decide to skip to another life to have a restart - it can be in a different time and/or space...

emrowene 2020-05-19 18:08:56 UTC #46

My main character is a human who's lived for nearly a thousand years and has....absolutely no idea why. It's secondary world fantasy with divine beings and elf-like creatures as well, so there's lots of immortality (or just really, really long lives) going around!

hannahlaine 2020-05-19 21:10:59 UTC #47

Lady Death as in my book or the comic character that I found out existed after I titled my book haha

queen_of_spades 2020-05-19 21:25:54 UTC #48

I mean your novel... Seth and Railynn... I never read the comic...
well, it happens - the title suits your novel though...

Their both really recent so I didn't manage to get that far into the story yet and they're also slow burns, but both have gods, two kinds of angels, reapers, vampires, witches and etc.

Zombies are immortals.

hannahlaine 2020-05-20 15:22:11 UTC #51

Thanks! I just saw you comment on chapter 16. I am so glad you love the book! The story has been in my head for YEARS!! so I finally decided to share it haha. I had no idea that anyone would actually like it haha

queen_of_spades 2020-05-20 15:41:24 UTC #52

like is not the correct word that defines the size of my liking of your book... would happily have it as a book in my shelf...

hannahlaine 2020-05-20 16:53:01 UTC #53

OMG that means so much to me! Thank you! I don't think it is that good just yet. It needs a good bit of editing. I hope to one day put it on like Kindle library or iBooks, but not until it has been edited and polished up a bit more haha.
