Creatures of Ore
The first one is about a race of machines that run on steam. A select few are used as a labor force for their ability to go into "overdrive", which basically means their engines go beyond the point of over heating and fire is expelled out of every opening in their chassis. The plot revolves around a group of Overdrivers as they face the only obstacle that stands in their way: death.While these beings do live perpetually, when they overdrive the potential to wield their moving parts together due to the high temperatures increases and they either become a hunk of metal or melt into oblivion. This is not a problem at first because the Empire doesn't usually give out suicidal labor tasks, but when resources become scarce, a select group of Overdrivers are put in danger of losing their lives and the entire race of mechanical people as well.
Extreme Casting
The second is about a young adult who has had a unique problem since he was a kid: "extreme casting" (which is basically what a black hole does when it decides to free its prisoners >:D [but on a proportional level]). While there are other individuals that have this ability in this alternate future universe, he is the only one that can extreme cast multiple times, and sometimes sporadically. Its not that he doesn't have a hard time controlling his power, its just that his power has a funny way of creating its own gateways for other beams of super heated material to escape.
So how does he over come this issue? Well there's a love interest involved and then there's drama and things get messy and he doesn't quite solve the problem where everyone wins, or at least where he wins. This story is about accepting the cards dealt to you and having the guts to play them.
I shall elaborate soon!
Update (Nov 23, 2015)
This is directly linked to GCTT. I wasn't particularly busy the other day when I decided to merge the two story lines because they sounded exactly like one from the Galactic Conquest if twisted and fused together. That being said you could say it sounds like a lot like a Japanese space western from the 90s.
Regardless of what it reminds you of, I wrote it all down on a piece of paper that I need to find so that I can put it up here. It'll get the same treatment as the other story lines on the other blogs are getting: Log line, character summary, and synopsis.
