@Misfit Angel, thanks for sharing something from the dawn of your authorial history. I haven't read your contemporary work, but I'm aware that you are somewhat accomplished on the forums. It's good for this thread to have examples of writers who are active, well-recognised moderators now yet with humble beginnings the same as all of us. I like that your super protagonist was explicitly not the chosen one; it's an angle I can see myself enjoying if written well.
@kintsugi, thank you for writing up such a comprehensive post! I have to say, the concept of "elementally powered protagonists called Incarnates" is straight up exactly the premise of my first fanfiction, from '06/'07. Remarkable coincidence, that! I wonder if we both had the same root inspiration.
I must say that your earliest excerpt is at least technically competent, even though the attempt at being charmingly meta doesn't quite do it for me! ;P Congrats on coming so far with your work, and forgive your own prose's purple shades. There's an audience for that.
