This Month's Monster theme: Pirates of Yeld!


Piracy has a long history in the magical land. Before the First Kings came to Yeld Fairy pirates sailed from coastal fortresses to harass and wage war on their neighboring tribes. Later, Toothfacer raiders battled with Sea Turtle Marines and Walrus Tribe Corsairs for territory. Piracy changed forever when the The Deep emerged to wage war on Prince Dragul. Squidmen Corsairs and Mermaid Pirates become common sights along every coast, and soon every fishing village, port and riverway was infested with Pi-rats! In response, the Prince commissioned Vampire privateers to patrol Yeld's coasts, and constructed a great fleet of massive Fairy dreadnaughts!


Your challenge: Design a pirate (or sailor, marine, corsair or privateer)! Your pirate can be any type of Monster, as long as they love the sea! Include a Sea Shanty Blue Spell that your Monster can "sing"!


Click the picture above to see all the MotM rules, and remember- every patron can enter!



Lastly, we're taking a look forward at what's in store for Yeld in the coming year!
