I'll assume Urban Fantasy counts.
There's no fantasy world here nor fantasy races.
What there is, is the mysterious force known as Ánima Corporea (Corporeal Souls). A spiritual manifestation of one's soul (In my story the soul is represented as the culmination of someone's experiences in life and their most intimate desires and ambitions).
Each Ánima takes the form of one animal (It can be ANY animal) each one unique, like the power they give to their user.
But no one, at least the common folk, have no idea of their existence. In the perspective of the protagonists they just manifested recently and haven't been a thing before.
Without spoiling things that I didn't reveal yet, the main antagonist and his associates do know a LOT about them and can use them perfectly (There's this thing about the Ánima being hard to control when you just got it).
There's actually a lot more, like some strange keys that the antagonists use. Which are revealed what they can do in Chapter 8. But that's enough I think.
Honestly, after writing this I noticed my story wasn't as simple as I wanted it to be, haha!
Echoes of the Void is a fantasy story with a lot of different beings. The vampires in my story can eat as much garlic as they want, it has no effect on them :3 They are not weak to much things, and very hard to kill (unless they are turned vampires), the pure born vampires even have powers and are not affected by the sun at all.
500 years prior to when the story takes place there was an event that almost destroyed the world, which was caused by a vampire :3 Everything that happens is kind of in the shadow of that.
Here's mine!
Human Yet Hybrid(Fantasy/Action/Comedy)
About two circletique sorcerers, one named Edwina, and another named Ida, who were turned human and banished to another world by an evil witch (And Ida's mother,) Queen Vapor. It's up to them and some new friends along their journeys as they fight many foes that cross their path, and to find a way back home or make the world they're banished to their new one and defeat the evil queen.
Oh, I liked this thread
Sometimes I look at my novel and wonder if I'm writing romance or a story about fantasy and drama with tiny bits of (fluff) romance lol. There are a lot of fantasy elements like races and species, mostly involving the web the MC (Mine) is in and who he is among the chaos of (re)discovering love. Also, the world is based on mana and essence manipulations, which I blended with some real things like vibrations and more (especially physics and little things of biology) in real life hehe~
I kind of traveled very deep into the fantasy dimension along the novel, and there's also lots of action!🤭
(I'm holding myself to not give spoilers️)

Updated every Wednesday and Saturday!
My graphic novel has some fantastic elements in it although it starts grounded (kinda) in the real world. Later on there will be some sweet Monkey on Kumiho action. The Monkey king is or course inspired by Sun Wu Kong. However my iteration deviates quite a bit from canon. (I'm currently rereading Journey to the west. I' like most people in the US know hime from the Stephen Waley Translation which I've known for awhile was Highly abridged so this time I'm reading the Wu translation). My Kumihos are based loosely on the Korean flavor of the nine-tailed fox spirit (There a different versions of this all over Asia) The Korean version is generally portrayed as a sneaky shapeshifter who bewitches people and eats they're livers. My particular Kumiho, however, has forsworn the livers of humans after a traumatic experience at the No Gun RI massacre and went on to convince a sizable portion of the Kumiho Community to follow her.
A Tale of Time tells the story of a long forgotten planet, Runae, sitting in a remote area of the universe. Guarded by the God of Time, it stood strong against the evil threat of the King of Emptiness: Nothing.
From the fall of the humans kingdom, to the raise of the Crimson Queen, the adventure of a lifetime begins here, with the Great Dawn.
Filled with magic & power, wars and betrayals, and a race against an inevitable, gigantic clash, this novel sits right into the High Fantasy genre.
I have an action fantasy and the lore all begins and ends with magic. It's everywhere from the atmosphere to the living beings. Therefor it affects the wildlife, the flora and people. You'll find almost every mythological being and then some. There are nine elements: light, dark, earth, wind, water, fire, metal, blood and wood. The elements dark, metal and blood are considered as sinful elements by the Luminous Empire who reveres the element light most of all. Admittingly, light is the most powerful element of all.
What if all myths from the past were real, but at some point the mistical creatures were extinguished from the face of the earth? This is the world where Koa is, but not for long. Along with Dr. Stu, he brings back all the magic to the world we know, flooding all living creatures with a magic substance known as Mërj, powerful but still dangerous to the beings affected by it. Calígena, a primordial god, when brought back to this world, gives them the mission to find Kanaloa, the only one who can purge all the magic from this world and save it from the obvious damnation. The only problem is that no one knows where to find this Kanaloa god. Follow Koa and his friends on this magic drama, looking for the unknown.
Today is a great day to Re-start Reading The New Arcanists!
The series is undergoing a Re-mix (soft reboot) and the first new chapter is available now!
Synopsis:
Not always a Red Way, but always the Red Way! At just 16, Tyler Red Way must grapple with the responsibility of maturing and becoming the leader of the most powerful mage family: The Scarlet Arcanist. Alongside his brother Hyan and friends Jake and Amelia, they embark on a challenging journey of growth where allies and enemies are never certain!!
In an other dimension, exists a world named Karamador, inhabited by humans and human-like animals and insects known as anhinis.
Karamador sets in a reneissance- fantasy type era, during the times of great dangers and legendary heroes. We mostly follow the adventures of Sir Kiljaos Windmane, the lion paladin of wind. Sir Kiljaos is a wandering paladin who travels around his homeland Pohjoland and the other parts of Karamador as knight errant, fighting the forces of chaos and helping those in need, and perhaps also getting paid in the process. During his adventures he also meets and teams up with many different companions to fight the forces of darkness.
Although Karamador is set in a fantasy world, many of it's locations are based more or less on real locations. Many of the stories also involve real life legends and folk lore, especially from Finland and Scandinavia.
My story is set on another planet in the future. Earth has been completely destroyed and only ruins are left to showcase it's previous prosperity. In this new world, the humans largely resemble those from Earth and the animals are similar although there are a few unique species.
Magic exists, but it is only able to be used by the 'Great Ones'. Scholars who are determined to make sure that they don't find themselves suffering from the same fate as the once prosperous Earth. Dragons are also a key component in this world although they are incredibly rare.
The first arc of the story is complete and in the second arc, I hope to explore a bit more of the lore of the world I've created. This story also has a romance subplot. Thank you to anyone who checks it out!
