Roark von Graf built a nation on the bodies of griefed players and disgruntled mobs who wanted him dead. He grinded his way up to the level cap of the Troll Evolutionary Path and made powerful underhanded alliances along the way, but even all of that isn’t enough to defeat the Tyrant King’s right-hand mage, Lowen, and the Divine armies of the most powerful dungeon in the game.

Diana, Cara, Rath the troll, and the rest of the Rogue Agents of Magic are here to cause trouble for those who use magic for evil. Time to make some enemies miserable. But not all is well for Diana and her team. Sloan is still missing in action, last seen entering the Pittsburgh. Amadeo the assassin has called on Rath for help with a mission. Can RAM deliver a counterpunch that will set their opponents up for a knockout blow?

After the capture and daring rescue of her teammate—bullets flying—Diana Sheen is focusing on a new mission. Push back the cult emerging around Rhazdon artifacts. The legacy of the half-Atlantean's magic is a dark and ancient magic that must be collected and hidden away forever—from everyone. Kevin Serrano has the same idea with a twist.

Diana Sheen and her team have been the Feds' go-to Agents when magical trouble threatens. Their ongoing mission to collect dangerous Rhazdon Artifacts is more important than ever.

No Oasis City is one of the few bastions of civilization in Beautiful Hell. It's also a playground for Joey and Maylolee Eclipse, who are obviously the most powerful duo there. During the day, they take on crime and corruption like they were born for it. At night, they delve deep into the underground caverns and practice with a breadth of powers they shouldn't have. All as preparation for completing their Master Quest to slay the 72 Demons and finally take over the Beautiful Hell Plane.

Joey Eclipse is the #1 beginner with a list of achievements that's hard to believe. All while in an apocalypse where the multiverse integrates whole universes and initiates countless humans to its game-like realms of limitless magic. Here's the problem. He's way too overpowered to stay in a lesser realm. And he keeps refusing his first ascension to accomplish his remaining goals. Too bad Joey's refusal to ascend dooms the lesser realm to suffer attacks from buffed-up monsters. Like the epic dread whale, a highly evil boss that's two realms of power greater than Joey Eclipse.
