    General Fics 

  • Stahlhelm by JR31VICTOR
    • Recommended by: Knight Spark
    • Status:
    • Synopsis: How does it go? A horde of goblins attack a nearby village, kill most of the villagers and take the women? Then later on, a group of newbie adventures try to get them back, only to get slaughtered in the process? Now, what if priestess' original group didn't have to die that day? What if they had one more person to steam the tides long enough? Well, this is that story.
    • Comments: Judging from the main character's attire and language, it would be easy to mistake this for an isekai genre fic, but it isn't like that. More to the point, this AU is excellent so far and Stoss is a very likable character. His experience on actual battlefields proves to be invaluable to the party, especially in the beginning where they immediately get into trouble with the goblins. Luckily, the young trooper assists them long enough until everyone's favorite armored menace appears to assist them. This fic contains all the dark drama that goes on in the original story but has some humorous moments to lighten the mood. I highly recommend reading this for sure.

  • Goblin Slayer Abridged, by The Schmuck Squad
    • Recommended by: Lopiny
    • Status: Ongoing.
    • Synopsis: The Schmuck Squad is proud to present our latest parody series, Goblin Slayer Abridged. Join the adventures of Goblin Slayer and his party as they do what they're good at, killing GOBLINS! Parody Written by Grimmjack, Coffinjockey, Eo D, and The Dastails. Now stop reading this description and go out there and kill some GAWBLINS!
    • Comments: A more refined sort of abridged series, going episode by episode and sticking closely to the original story while spicing up everything encountered for hilarious effect. Especially Goblin Slayer himself; with all the comparisons between the Doom Slayer and canon Goblin Slayer, it's surprising how well a completely, gloriously psychotic GS more comparable to Comic!Doomguy works.

  • Goblin Slayer: What Comes After by Dunedan
    • Recommended by: WoolooShepherdG-00
    • Status: Complete
    • Synopsis: A rookie team is slaughtered by goblins, an adventurer losing all of her comrades retires, never to be heard from again. All these things happen quite often in this world, yet that need not be the end. For life is long as a young Female Fighter who thought her own was over is about to learn in the very village she had set out with her team to aid that fateful day...
    • Notes: Warning: There is a scene of attempted sexual assault, but the perpetrators are dispatched two of whom by the Fighter herself before the act can take place.
    • Comments: This is an uplifting one-shot about a village Apothecary and his family helping the Female Fighter recover after her encounter with goblins in the cave that is superbly faithful in capturing the writing style of the source material. This story is so wholesome, you will want it to be canon, and I cannot recommend it enough.

  • Heart Stealer by FapTime (TV Tropes Page Here)
    • Recommended by: ZenithBloodedge
    • Status: Ongoing
    • Synopsis:After defeating Goblin Lord at the farm, things will start to get hectic for Goblin Slayer. With so many new friends, Goblin Slayer must learn how to properly communicate with them. Especially when it comes to his female friends, who will constantly try to make Goblin Slayer think about other things than goblins, mainly about them as women.
    • Notes: A slightly AU story starting after Season 1 of the anime, with minor alterations to the setting to better tell a new story. Lemon Warning for later chapters.
    • Comments: An interesting minor AU to the Goblin Slayer story, which keeps all the characters recognizable and yet has enough changes to the general plot to make things interesting and fresh. Goblin Slayer’s still a socially awkward Goblin freak, but his bluntness and general approach to love is very much enjoyable, especially since he holds affection for the various women around him. The only problem is that updates can be somewhat sporadic due to the author’s own life.

    Crossover 

  • Slayer King (Goblin Slayer AU) by gameboy5432
    • Recommended by: Mr Terrorist
    • Crossover with: Re:Monster, Doom (2016), Warhammer, StarWars and Predator
    • Status: Complete
    • Synopsis: What if Priestess' original party went on their first quest with Goblin Slayer? How will this 5 man party affect canon? Knowing Goblin Slayer, he'll use the cannon to slay goblins.
    • Comments: In this Alternate Universe fanfic, Goblin Slayer accompanies Priestess' original party in their first quest, ensuring they survive and gained experience fighting goblins. Not only that, this leads to a series of events that leads to the creation of the Slayer Army, an army dedicated to the extermination of goblins which also attracts the attention of powerful forces. The story also combines elements of other franchises like Rou from Re:Monster being the leader of a Goblin horde and Dwarf Shaman having a behavior of a Warhammer Dwarf. Despite the unique premise, the fanfics suffer from a lot of typos and you don't learn which new character is based on another popular franchise until the author explains it. Nevertheless, it's still a good read.

    • Comments: It is equally funny and heartwarming that Conan unknowingly steps up to become a father figure to Goblin Slayer by showing him that putting goblins to extinction won't stop other species, even fellow humans, to stop pillaging & raping while making him realize he is a Chick Magnet by bringing him to a brothel and helping him noticing the similarity between how the prostitutes looking at his helmetless face and how the females he interacted with looked at him.

    • Comments: After the rundown, friendships & tragedies of his lifetime, Arthur Morgan expects an afterlife in Hell for every misdeed he's done...only for him to get awakened in Goblin Slayer's world, and been told by someone/thing who, as Arthur put it, "workin' for the big man", that he gets a second chance, a redemption, by using his skills to aid this world. With guns & rifles using energy instead of bullets, the fake name of "Gunslinger", and the aid of a steel-armored warrior who is hell-bent on goblin's extinction, Arthur Morgan shall step into & mend this broken world, one shot at a time.
