Creature Feature
Ever since the end of last year’s carnival, many of the creatures that were on display have escaped and now roam the vast forests of Bell Tree. As the month progresses, they've become more active. This is the perfect opportunity to observe how the various creature oddities have adapted in their new environment, and compile it all into a bestiary. Let's get out there and look at some monsters, we'll reconvene with our findings afterwards!Task
Everyone is assigned a randomized noun and adjective prompt. Your task will be to design a unique creature oddity based on the set of words given and write 3-5 sentences about the creature’s habitat, behavior, and/or any other notable characteristics.
You can view your prompt by either looking under your post sidebar or by clicking here.
Submit both your drawing and observation log in this thread by 11:59 PM EDT on Thursday, October 31st. Your TBT username must be visible somewhere in the image, either on a name card or written directly on the image.
