Way of the Fist sounds fun, as well.

Monsters would be awesome.

A skeleton walks into a bar and ask the Bartender: “Do you serve skeletons here?”

Times being what they are the wily Bartender replies: “sure, we serve anyone.”

The skeleton hands the man a silver and says: “Fine, I’ll have a pitcher of beer…and a mop”

I would mention Autumn festivals, harvest time stuff, submissions that are based around the holidays of the fall, like Thanksgiving in the US, Halloween, and the various things of that nature

Magic tattoos, autumn festivals and rebellion themes all get my vote.  I already sense a few ideas tickling at my brain.

...How about this?

Mounstrous Monsters

Monster. The word itself connotes something wrong or evil. Natural, freak of nature, nurtured by a mad alchymist or simply the last of its kind. These creatures must be unique and... well, monsters! Producing physical or mental fear by either its appearance or its actions. Mutants, mythical beasts, humans, flora, fauna, anything goes. Lets expand the boundaries and our established notions of what monsters are and can be!

My vote would be for Summer Festivals, and then for Tattoos and Magic. Or possibly Festivals in general, rather than limiting it to summer festivals.

Since it is fairly unaminous and this requires the least amount of work for me since MJS put together this perfect quest intro, going with this. Speak now before I lock the topic. ;)

Will post the quest in the next couple of days. It can go in conjunction with the 5555. Stack up the XP bonuses. ;)
