Mithras Chronicles
http://www.tthfanfic.org/wholestory.php?no=27633#chapter1
Awesome story, with well written action scenes that are paced nicely throughout the story. The characters from the different fandoms are brought in carefully and believably. And that is important because there are a lot of crossovers big and small too numerous to list. The author provides enough background with out turning it into a history lesson. The characterization is good while the plot has many twists and turns.
Xander decides to leave Sunnydale for good not just the summer and Faith goes with him. As usual trouble finds him and the adventure turns dangerous almost immediately then something weird even for him happens. Near death he meets with Mithras, a general from the war that drove the demons out, in his mind. Mithras was an Ascendant, a human that becomes a god because of great deeds. Leo, from Charmed describes the line of Mithras:
“Throughout history, many of the world’s greatest military figures were descendants of Mithras. Some like Darius the Great, Hannibal, Richard Lionheart, El Cid, and the Black Prince are revered and remembered to this day. Others have been forgotten. But at the start of the 15th Century, Mithras’ influence began to wane and he was soon forgotten, his line deemed unworthy.” Her boyfriend looked down at the unconscious body. “Until Xander.”
Now he is in for a wild ride as he needs to unite the various demon fighters and raise an army al the while avoiding those that want to take advantage or "guide him" in the proper direction. Luckily he has Faith, Tara and assorted heroes and anti-establishment types to give him a hand.
