Uhmm. Hi, I'm Rave, and this is my first fanfic. I borrowed the idea partly from Mr. Welch's List (It's a list of things Mr. Welch [that loony]'s GM apparently had to add to the rule list. It's REALLY FUNNY!) and iTorchic's 333 Ways fics. (iTorchic, you are a truly awesome human being!) GO READ THEM. They're better than my stuff, anyway. :D

Spoilers WILL be here! And lots of 'em. Just warning you.

This is a crossover between

Leviathan (steampunk alternate world version of WW1, where the Central Powers are the Clankers, who use giant battle mechs [and mechanics for day-to-day stuff], and the Allied Powers are Darwanists, cuz Charles Darwin discovered DNA and how to tweak it to make fabs [ fabricated animals], like huge freakin' flying airships [the Leviathan], perspacious lorises, etc. Aleksandar only son of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, on run from Germans, Deryn girl in disguise as boy to be airman, the two meet and eventually become friends, have adventures and try to stop war),

Percy Jackson and the Olympians/Heroes of Olympus (demigods save the world in modern times),

The Kane Chronicles (Egyptian-magic using blood-of-pharaohs brother/sister duo save world, host gods, train other pharaoh-blooded magicians),

Harry Potter (half-blood orphan wizard and his friends save world, defeat really evil wizard, grow up),

A Series of Unfortunate Events (Trio of orphans with massive fortune run away from various awful situations, all caused by fantastically evil count that wants their fortune [and their lives]),

Artemis Fowl (Boy genius and fairies secretly living underground go from enemies to allies to best friends, saving the world all the way),

Axis Powers Hetalia (Personified countries of the world interact – usually hilariously) (Have not been able to find this in English. So my only knowledge about it is from reading fanfics/TvTropes. *headdesk* Anyone know where to find the manga/anime in English?),

Fullmetal Alchemist (Brothers, older one alchemist [and series namer] with two mech limbs, younger one's soul attached to suit of armor, have to defeat someone [I haven't finished this series yet, unlike the others…])…that's it.

I've added my OCs to the mix. (An OC is an original character. They're used in fanfics/fan art/fans' imaginations. Loads are Mary Sues, which are basically more-than-perfect-in-every-last-damn-way OCs. Male Mary Sues = Marty Stus. Mary Sues = evil. Seriously.)

Rave – This is me. Yes, she's an Author Avatar. No, I won't change her. Yes, I will resent it if you try. Full name: Rave Lynn Black.

Octa – Mage, alchemist, time traveler, part succubus (shape-shifting demon who seduced men in order to make more demons. It's very ew, I agree.), part human, part immortal. Owns the house everyone's staying in. (Don't ask why.) Full name: Octavia Theodosia Sharp. No, she isn't a Mary Sue. Yes, I've made damn sure of that.

(Mary Sues are not only more powerful than the rest of the characters in the universe combined, they are more beautiful than everyone else combined and everyone loves them instantly. If you don't love them, then you're automatically evil, even if in canon you're the least evil person there is and ever was. If you're the Mary Sue's creator's crush's love interest, you WILL turn evil and crazed just so the crush can dump your butt and hook up with the Mary Sue.)

53 – Sentient robot girl. Used to be teacher at really-high-abilities Magitech School. Can use high-tech body parts to advantage, including hijacking anything electronic, and a lot of things electric. Full name: forgotten, need to go search for it. (Oh God, that'll take FOREVER! D:) No, she IS a real person. She's just not in an organic body, OK?

Explanation of terms: These are some slang/catchall/etc. I use, and here's what they mean. Just in case you didn't know.

Prolly – Probably.

Mage – Used here as "anyone who uses magic", be they wizard, fairy or host of Isis. (Harry, Holly, Sadie, I'm looking at you.)

Loony – Lunatic. Not describing someone who's actually mentally ill.

Cuz – Because. (Not cousin.)

If I've forgotten anything, please let me know. Oh!

DISCLAIMER: None of the canons belong to me. Never have, never will. I know damn well they don't belong to me, and I commit no copyright infringement. They belong to Scott Westerfeld, Rick Riordan, J. K. Rowling, David Handler (Lemony Snicket), Eoin Colfer, whoever wrote Axis Powers Hetalia, and whoever wrote FMA, I dunno who they are. *headdesk*

ALSO: If my swearing offends anyone, I'm really, really sorry.

There. Now let's get started!
