Aberrant Farmer Series

Conscription and death. That is the sword of Damocles hanging over every peasant's head. As the realm gets overrun by bloodthirsty Beasts, every family has to pitch in. And so, to spare his father and siblings, Ferren offers to be the one from their household to join the king's army. But during an escort mission, Ferren's convoy is attacked and his right arm ripped off by a ferocious monster. By some miracle, Ferren survives the ordeal and is sent back home, at the borderlands, to nurse his wounds. Worry begins to settle in, especially with the way his missing limb starts itching and burning. Soon, he is shocked to find dark purple scales growing on his skin, and his stump getting bigger by the day. In a matter of a few weeks, a new arm has regrown. Looks like, somehow, he inherited some of the powers from the Beast he encountered, and he can now change his arm into any tool or weapon he's familiar with. Not only that, he will learn he can also gain new abilities and forms for his arm by killing more monsters. Ferren will use his newfound skills to help with the family farm, but also to protect them and the people living nearby as the waves of attacks increase. But will that be enough?

Ferren's family and neighbors had no other choice. Life on the frontier had become too dangerous, what with the Beasts' attacks getting more and more frequent and deadly. They all had to leave their farms behind to be relocated somewhere safe, closer to the capital. But the journey through the desert is no easy task, as they need to cross a hostile territory rife with monsters and dangers. Thankfully, the villagers can count on Ferren and the group of Powered accompanying him to protect them. And with any luck, the young farmer might even gain a new power or two to add to his arm arsenal. If they make it through, a new chapter in Fer's life may begin back in Dunwatch Keep, this time as one of the elite force and not just some random pawn in the king's army. But with each mission it becomes increasingly clear that they might not be safe anywhere, not even at the heart of the kingdom. Something is drawing the Beasts out of the Wastes, something terrible, something hungry. And it's up to them to stop it before the entire realm is overrun.
