See those critters running around, attempting to ravage your poor defenseless self? Those were made by someone. You could be that someone.

Concept

Come up with a concept for your monster. Then check to make sure we don't already have one. True, you might have an awesome idea for a Skunk Woman, or maybe a Wolf Cub Twink, but the more original your idea is, the more likely it is to be approved.

Copyrighted characters or approximations of copyrighted characters are *NOT* allowed. So, no blue hedgehogs that run really fast, ducks named Donald, beautiful plant girls named Ivy, or similar items. Yes, 'parody' is covered under fair use, but Nuku has better things than legal battles to spend his money on (like food and shelter).

Body Template

Information on body template items.

Victory Messages

How to create a victory message. Use string parsing!

Other details

Other stuff, like say/osay, powers, extra description text.

Submitting

First, spellcheck your creature. Then read it again. Aloud. (Or at least mouth the words.) If your monster is littered with typos and 'and and's, it will just frustrate the devs.

Good, now wait an hour, come back, and spellcheck and proofread it again. See the missing "then" on line 3? The "theyre" in the male victory scene? That's why you wait and come back.

Now, visit, http://flexiblesurvival.com/index?Monsters

Log in if needed, and fill out the form, using your template. Check the preview. Read it again.

Click "Submit".

Done.
