There is a competition in TrollsZine 1. The reward is everlasting fame and a collection of Japanese T&T books.
The top ten entries will be included in TrollsZine 2, with the best one (as judged by da Trollgod, Ken St Andre himself) receiving the Oriental goodness.
The task is to do a write up of between 250-350 words on a monster or NPC and the context where you might encounter them. An art depiction may be submitted if you wish but is not compulsory.
The email to send the submission to is found in the competition details in TrollsZine 1, or you can pm me here.
Please amaze me with your imaginations!

I have mine all lined up to write, that is i know what i'm writing and now i just need to do it but, it's playing second fiddle at the moment to the solo i'm writing for Issue 2.
The first time i wrote the solo, the app crashed and ate it. The second time it was three pages long after 3 paragraphs and an intro and, nowhere near as good as the copy that was eaten. Third times a charm though and, i've mapped it out to ease the writing process. Now all i actually need to do is write it all up!

I now also have art in need of a home, so if anyone wants to try and create an NPC, or monster round a piece of art, let me know and I'll send you something.
My suggestion would be if its a race everyone knows about, submit an NPC. If its a new and original race submit a monster. But bottom line. Submit. Please. There is an exalt in it for you!

You know, I'm going to have a bunch of new critters and NPC's as part of the Solo I'm working on... However, I wouldn't want to spoil the surprise by listing them here.

The Trollgod has spoken and the Hoargaunt has won. We will be publishing the top 5 creations in issue 2, and the other excellent monsters and NPC's in issue 3. The standard was extremely high.
