Board Thread:2018 - A Year of Renovation/@comment-1824169-20181002024503



Halloween draws nearer and my desire to see spooky content grows larger, so we're doing this again! This year we're switching to a scenario format to shake things up a bit.

Scenario
Listen up! More and more people are going missing in the woods of the US every year, and the gotdang GUBBMINT refuses to tell us the truth about these cases, telling us that there are "scientific facts" and "reasonable explanations" for all of these disappearances and that it "isn't the work of the devil". What a bunch of hoot'n hollerin' baloney! It's time for us to get to the bottom of this ourselves!

Your mission is to explore the deep dark forests of America and find out what's really lurking around in them there woods! Document everything you can about any creatures you come across! Sections explaining what they look like and how they operate are crucial! If you don't report back by the end of the month, I will assume you have died and pour a cold one out for you with the boys. America is in danger, and only we the people and our massive hunting rifles can save it! Set out, brave explorers! Our country needs you!

Rules

 * Your job here is to create a cryptid that lives in the forest and is somehow responsible for disappearing people. Technically this counts as Ben 10 shit because of the shared universe with the Secret Saturdays and what not.
 * All cryptids submitted must have at least their Appearance and Known Behaviors listed, although more sections are encouraged.
 * To facilitate this, all entries should have their own non-stub wiki page before submission.
 * To clarify, you don't need art for your cryptid (although the extra effort is appreciated) as long as you have a clear description of their appearance.
 * To submit your entries, please link to their wiki page on this thread.
 * Entries must be turned in by Midnight EST on October 30th. The results will be posted in a blog on Halloween.
 * You may sign up for this contest until the entry deadline.

Prize
The winner of this contest will receive a Steam Key for the game Outlast 2. If you don't know what Outlast 2 is, congratulations on avoiding the entirety of YouTube for the first half of 2017. Outlast 2 is a survival horror game set in the redneck bumwoods of America that has nothing to do with Outlast 1 other than the camera mechanic so there's no need to play the first one beforehand.

"But CaT this game is rated M for Mature and I'm only 5!"

Well do you know how hard it is to find a decent AAA horror game that isn't rated M what do you want from me

Note that you must have both a Steam account to redeem this game and a Discord account for me to PM the key to you, otherwise you will not be able to receive the prize.

If you don't have a Steam and/or Discord account, don't worry too much! They're both completely free to create. The winner will also be receiving a Medal on their userpage, so even if you can't accept the grand prize for whatever reason, you'll still get some sweet bling!

(Note that in the event you turn down the grand prize for whatever reason, it will be given to the next highest-ranked winner able to receive it.)
