Make Monsters, Win Prizes, Get Famous!
Thursday, September 24, 2009 at 02:32PM Do any of you know Hannah, the *current* editor of J4’s roleplayingtips weekly e-zine? (I also put in some time under the cruel lash of the Four). Do you know that Hannah also runs a nifty little website overflowing with interesting, cool, and useful generators for gaming? Do you know her better as Swordgleam, lover of 4E and Iron Heroes?
Well, now you know all those things, so let’s get to the goods.
Chaotic Shiny’s Monster Contest
The rules of the contest are simple.
- Visit this link to make sure I'm not just making this all up.
- Generate a random monster or ten using CS' Monster Generator.
- Choose one (or more) and stat out the critter for D&D 4E using any/all of the following resources:
a. Your brain
b. ChaoticShiny’s Name Mixer
c. Asmor’s Monster Math Cruncher - Draw a picture of the critter for double entry credit.
- Submit your deadly masterpiece(s) by October 3 to swordgleam[at]chaoticshiny[dot]com.
- Sit back and watch the sweet, sweet prizes roll in.
Prizes
There will be seven prizes, including a prize (and runner up) for Best Crunch and Best Fluff. Hannahgleam will also be drawing 3 random prize winners. The prize list follows:
• Three one-Year Premium Subscriptions to DM Tools (From Dungeonmastering.com)
• Several GM Mastery: Inn Essentials and GM Mastery: Holiday Essentials from J4 himself
• Several copies of Martial Flavor, a nifty PDF bursting with cool 4E crunch and systemless fluff that I’m helping edit (from ChaoticShiny Productions)
• Several Night Wyrm PDF from right here, Unnatural20.com—that’s right, our first complete monster release for 3.5E and Pathfinder will be up for grabs before it’s even available for sale
Dénouement
Finally, the best critters will be compiled and PDFed for free for all to enjoy at the conclusion of the contest. Thanks, ChaoticShiny!
So get to it already—you only have a few more days for your chance at riches beyond imagining! Or do you really think you can’t beat the guy who came up with the Grumpkin?

If I were eligible for the contest I would model a monster after you. Are semi-literate CR 1/2 creatures still popular these days?
Hey, we should do lunch next week. You game?
Thanks for the plug!
And eligible? Everyone is eligible! The prizes are all digital, so it's not like I have to mail them anywhere.
Wow!!! Chaotic Shiny kicks ass! Amazing.
Johnn, I'll be game as long as I can find and gather the pieces of my sundered ego... jeeze, what a way to ask for a man-date...
You betcha, Hannahgleam!

Hey all! God, I wish this was for 3.5 and not 4e...I dont like 4e much. Does that make me a bad person?
Anywho, I have a website up, where I make custom campaign settings, fiction, soon plan to publish a free webcomic. We are also going to publish a monthly serial comic, and two small digests. Check it out:
