I narrowed the list down even more. These
are the top three, the ones I will prep during October and hopefully
pick one from by November.
Octave's Story - This is a science fiction one that i guess in a little
way reminds me of the Matrix in that there is a system to fight against.
But none of the "one" nonsense. Groups are chosen to take part in
displayed rebellions, and each group has an Other (non-human) but they
don't know till after training who the other is on their ship. Octave is
an other, and he ends up in the rebellion because of being in the wrong
place at the wrong time. He never intended to rebel but when faced with
that or death (and the death of a child) he chose to fight. (sci-fi)
stand-alone
Aeon/Xan - This is one of those, character doesn't know they are royalty
types. Aeon is a mage student who has never had a stable home, doesn't
know his parents or even his real name. One year he met Xan and after a
fight asked him to protect him but had no idea how much of an impact he
made on Xan, who later becomes his warder. Something also affects his
memory (need to decide what) so he no longer remembers Xan and may never
pass the mage test because it requires memorizing spells. Both him and
Xan have wild magic, which is deemed inferior. I started writing this in
first person in a notebook, but it was horrible. Recently I wrote a
part of the story from Xan's POV and it has deepened the story.
(fantasy) series
Snow White - Male version of Snow White, to a degree. The women are the
ones who usually take over the crown because they have magic in the
family line. However, Snow is the only child the king and queen had. His
powers haven't been discovered yet. Even though his servant still
believes in him, he knows many doubt his ability to reign as the realm
starts to decay. He leaves the castle in order to travel the land and
find a way to be of use. (fantasy) stand-alone
