《Giantslayer》GIANT BESTIARY

Giant Bestiary
This bestiary will continually be updated as we move along the story. Current status: Up to Chapter 13. Read this bestiary at your own risk of spoilers.
Giants are divided into a ten-star category system, with one-star being the weakest and ten-star being one of the strongest giants ever discovered. As the star-rating goes up, the more Giantslayers are needed to hunt the creature and the more high-leveled Giantslayes are capable enough to kill it.
Augmentations
Some giants can consume nectars as well and like humans, some have affinities towards them while some cannot consume it at all. But unlike humans, nectars will produce external changes to their physical characteristics rather than just merely enhancements of their inner strengths. A giant in the weaker star-rating may be augmented and become more dangerous, hence becoming a higher star-rating—but this is very hard to measure as each augmented giant is unique and one of a kind. The more nectars it consumes, the stronger it becomes and the more changes start to show up in its physical characteristics and capabilities.
First Phase: Enhanced strength and enhanced basic biological capabilities. Second Phase: The growth of size and length. Third Phase: The growth of new limbs and/or organs. Fourth Phase: ? (not yet revealed) Fifth Phase: ? (not yet revealed)

Ancient Bones: The Changed Ones book 1 (Post-Post Apocalypse LitRPG)
Is it truly an RPG Apocalypse... if no one can see the RPG? Generations after the Fall, Mankind has achieved a balance in a world it is no longer the master of. But your prospects in this Malthusian world are limited. Johanna Milton and her friends have an answer: delve into Ancient ruins, avoid Changed beasts and mana pockets, and salvage Ancient materials, collectibles, and trinkets to sell. It pays well if you avoid the perils of the Ancient world. But when they find the skeleton of an Ancient, their lives take a strange turn. Suddenly, Talents straight out of fantasy novels become theirs. While they try to make sense of what happens, eyes turn to them, to the four who seem to break all rules. Or are they merely following them? Because, in the Beyond where he's spent 150 years waiting, one dead Ancient knows the truth. Douglas Moore has played those games often enough when he was alive to make sense of the System that rules the Changed world. He can no longer act on his own, but he has access to the Interface. And four people for which he can bring whatever it takes to face the world. Change is coming. The Changed Ones is a slow-burn litrpg fantasy trilogy (Ancient Bones, Ancient Books, Ancient Bonds) set on Earth, 150 years after the RPG Apocalypse... which mostly failed. It is an homage to the venerable ancient RPGs of the Golden Box era, the Baldur's Gates, and many others, offering adventure where You must gather your party before venturing forth. Keywords: LitRPG, realistic setting, low-leveling, post-post-apocalypse, fantasy earth, slow-burn, secondary POVs, female primary MC, team adventure, worldbuilding. Trigger warnings: casual swearing, adult innuendo (no explicit scenes whatsoever, though). Oh, and potentially a bit of politics. Bonus content: a Litrpg Easter Egg hunt. With lots of eggs across the book, some easy, some hard to find. Current score: 6/20 (20 eggs, 6 found) Publication schedule: on hold until September for book 2.

The Loyal Ones [Dark Biopunk Fantasy]
TLDR; A slave monster survives horror, war and servitude, while trying to live with himself. Thralls are a race of monstrous slave soldiers, in a universe where biological magic takes the place of technology. Centuries ago, their ancestors were desperate humans, who volunteered to be transformed for the Poison War. Today their unfortunate descendants are still soldiers and laborers. In contract law they are 'corporate wards'; slaves owned largely by arms dealers. Dally Harper starts this story as a champion cage fighter. He is one of the 'lucky' ones. It's all downhill from there. Content Warning: Explicit violence and gore, slavery, implied sexual assault. None of these are framed as positive or glorified, however they do have a strong impact on the plot and main characters.
