So... yeah, I randomly decided to write this one day, and it spiraled out from there. I can't say it wasn't fun, though, so that's something.
Also, shout-out to the people who let me use their characters.

Level Adjustment, a modifier most monster races have that is used when the race is used for a PC, which is added to that monster race's starting number of hit dice to get the Effective Character Level modifier. This affects how much XP is needed to level up.
The tarrasque doesn't have an LA modifier, but it has 48 hit dice, giving it an ECL of 48. This means that instead of reaching level 2 at 1,000 XP, a tarrasque PC wouldn't reach level 2 until they hit 1,176,000 XP, enough to get a normal PC to level 49.

The sad part? That actually fits with something I half-jokingly discussed with someone else about her level still being at 1 while the party was all epic level (And, I considered at least most of them Prestige class while I was writing this). Since thinking about the game mechanics in a story setting has some seriously hilarious implications.
She wants to be a bard? Well he DID wish that she wasn't a threat... :P
Plus it does make a bit of sense. I mean, classes like fighter, rogue, paladin, and so forth all require gear to fully utilize their class... gear that a giant beast of her stature CANNOT USE because it would take an entire kingdom to kit her out. I think the only classes that don't need weaponry or the like would be bard, wizard, sorcerer, and monk. And wizard and sorcerer technically need components for many spells that she'd barely be able to fiddle with. So that leaves bard and monk.

Colossal friendly monsters are the best monsters (except astronomical, pan galactic post multiversal ones, but only if they can make smaller avatars)
If should use here bard powers to turn over equal giant and bigger critters to good. All good fantasy worlds have an endless supply for world threatening mega beasts to befriend.
