{Highest #12 Adventure} A supernatural sword and sorcery adventure! When legendary Tilwen swordsman, Riposte Clasicant, is challenged to defend his actions toward a woman he doesn't love, he discovers her fiancé is a bigger monster than he is. In Silver Blades novellas, we follow the adventures of Rip Clasicant, who has neglected both duty and honor in recent decades. His life of debauchery often rubs society the wrong way, and just as often it pushes back. Only superior skill with a blade has kept him alive thus far. Pertuli, his sarcastic but well-meaning sidekick, has his doubts about how much longer his friend's fortune will last.

Will his satisfaction survive a lethal encounter with a mysterious woman from his past? In Silver Blades novellas, we follow the adventures of Rip Clasicant, who for reasons of his own has neglected both duty and honor in recent decades.

Suffering from the inability to become inebriated has left Riposte Clasicant more cantankerous than usual. The body count is rising, and Pertuli isn't the only one who wonders if Rip's condition is more serious than an unusual curse; with dire results. In Silver Blades novellas, we follow the adventures of an elven swordsman who has neglected duty and honor in recent decades. Often, his peers seek restitution for this debauchery in blood. Only superior skill with a blade and a single-minded devotion to finding his lost love has kept Rip alive thus far. Pertuli, his sarcastic but well-meaning sidekick, is not always sure he is on the right side. Silver Blades: Dread Handed takes place after the events in Silver Blades: Prize Fight.Praise for Silver Blades: Dread Handed: "I love [Riposte]. He is officially my favorite Wattpad character. (and you can quote me on that)" - @avadel -----"... well crafted and packed with tension." - @KellyJBurke -----"Well done, my friend!" - @OrinBattlehammer -----…

"We're going to need more heroes." Dragoskala has erupted in chaos as an evil plot comes to fruition. The fate of both the city and the central plains of Terrok rests in the hands of a terminally ill swordsman with a temper problem, a snarky layabout gentleman elf, and the cranky female mercenary they let be sold into slavery. If the curse of lycanthropy doesn't kill them, chances are she will. In Silver Blades novellas, we follow the adventures of Riposte Clasicant, who has neglected duty and honor in recent decades. This time his faults have come back to haunt everyone, and he hopes his superior skill with a blade and the help of Pertuli, his sarcastic but well-meaning sidekick, will be enough to save the city he loves. Silver Blades: Plate Male takes place immediately after the events in Silver Blades: Dread Handed.Praise for Silver Blades: Plated Male: -----I love your books because you create emotional depth in your characters and build complex worlds with many moving parts. - @avadel -----OMG! All the heroes are getting the sh&t beat out of them. The tension is killing me! - @kellyjburke -----…

This book will house the information that some readers have requested about the World of Terrok, its peoples and environs. I will update it whenever I have some time to spare and I'm taking a break from the Silver Blade stories. I have begun many Terrok guidebooks over the years, and the scope of those projects has always gotten away from me. In this case I won't be attempting to create an all-encompassing wiki for Terrok. Instead I will just be updating sections to expand on references we've seen in the SB tales as I see fit and have time. If there is anything you would really like to see here, please comment and ask. Also, because I won't be posting information in any particular order, expect sections to be moving around as they need to be grouped with other, similar sections. (I will try to keep descriptions of countries, races, religions, etc. with other similar topics, and will likely add section cover pages for each for ease of use as I go.) Enjoy!…

A few people have asked for some visuals to go with my Silver Blades characters, and I don't have many (that are finished)... but I do have sketches and different things I've drawn that accompany my creation process. Nothing in this book is meant to be "finished," but if you're a Rip & Pertuli fan, or curious about their world, it might be of interest. I have a LOT of art of the wider World of Terrok, in progress or left over from other projects, but that isn't the intent of this sketchbook. Also, check out my general sketchbook for more random images. Note: Before you ask, the characters on the current cover are NOT Rip and Pertuli... they are Pertuli and Silverleaf, from the Tete-a-Tete short story.…

A young, (shall we say arrogant?) elven warrior from a remote mountain kingdom thinks he knows all there is to know about the world. When the dragon is slain, it shatters his world. No longer can he one day kill the dragon and rule the kingdom-what could he possibly amount to now? For lack of options, he becomes an adventurer, and meets a few like-minded souls to join him in his quest for riches, fame, glory, and the love of a lass named Hyllofenae.-- A/N: This book is the beginning of a tale based on D&D games played with my two sons. It is meant to be a light-hearted account of their adventures, and while it takes place in Terrok may not be precisely canon. I suppose this could change at some point, with some editorial scrutiny, but this is why you'll see things like "elves" and "orcs" in this story, but not the others that I write.…

I told myself I wasn't going to publish this, because for me Wattpad was intended to be a writing-only outlet, but it seems that as usual, inspiration has run away with me. That being said, readers are warned that this sketchbook will probably not be used much, because I'm going to go "off topic" as little as possible. I just don't want to get side tracked. So what we'll find here is most likely going to be random sketches of characters of my creation that I haven't written about, or sketches of characters that don't belong to me and therefore didn't have a home in the "Wattpad Reader's Guide to Terrok" or the "Silver Blades Sketchbook." Enjoy at your own peril. I make no warranty for your safety, should you enter. If any images or writing within enters adults-only territory, I will change the rating to mature.…
