About Unusual Creatures

The aim of these contests are to help members reach deep down to their creativity banks and come up with a totally strange, bizarre and very unusual creature and then find a way to place them in a strange or unusual scene or predicament. Entries will be judged on originality, detail to the set theme or task, and style of writing.

Maybe you'd even like to take a stab on drawing your unusual creature too! Though no extra points will be given, but it would certainly give us all something more to look at.

Unusual Creatures Contest Line-up

Stage 1: Creature Creation - Closed!
Creation of your unusual creature!
This part of the contest is closed, but remember if you want to take part in the later stages you still have to create an unusual creature!

Stage 2: Unusual Territory - Closed!
UCC Unusual Territory
You have your creature now place it in a proposed unusual scene; can you manage your creature in someone else’s territory?

Stage 3: A weird Predicament - OPEN!
UCC A weird Predicament
Phew! You managed to get through the unusual territory, but now something bizarre is about to happen, how will it affect your unusual creature?

Stage 4: The Showdown!
The showdown, you have got this far, but can you handle the final showdown of the UCC.

2006-02-27 [Font]: Grey your submission was in after it closed too, but if you want I can read over yours too. Though it wont be held in this part of the competition

2006-02-27 [Grey Wanderer]: Realy? Darn. No, that's alright; it wasn't realy ready, but I liked the contest idea, so I stuck in a something rough to start with.

2006-02-27 [Font]: I'm thinking of having a follow up, which you will need to have a submission for the first part, so it is handy to have it in

2006-02-27 [Grey Wanderer]: Alright, I give in ^.^

2006-03-03 [SleepingDragon]: A big congrats to all the winners!

2006-03-05 [Font]: No No, you can switch and change between each for any stage. Just as long as you use the same creature you created in the first part.  Stage two info will be put up on tuesday,
