Duskbound: a Monster Hunter LitRPG

Monsters stalk the night, but Velik hunts them. Scarred by childhood trauma, he bears a rare racial subtype that thrives in darkness and wields the [Black Fang] class—a relentless force against the creatures infesting the frontier. For a decade, his solitary vigil has kept the wildlands at bay, leveling up through blood and blade. This year, the hordes surge beyond his control. When a licensed hunter arrives, suspicion shadows their uneasy alliance. The newcomer seems more intrigued by Velik than the monsters, leaving him free to plunge into the deep wood’s heart—where he believes the scourge originates. Each revelation twists deeper than the last, unraveling secrets even he doesn’t understand. One truth remains: in the shadows, nothing is safe—not even the hunters.
