Telling a monster story
So now that we're done with coloring our monster parts, this leaves the last stage in this creative process, and I would say it's arguably the funnest stage, and that is telling a monster story. Now, this might be the scariest part for you, but don't worry, it's not too difficult. For example, here's a character I created, and at this stage, because you've created your own monster, I want you to now name your monster. You have to come up with a name, and a one-sentence description of where the monster comes from, or what mythology it comes from, or what lore is associated with this character. So for example, this is a character I created, I call it Giant Snack, and this is Odious the Giant, and he enjoys a high-protein diet provided by the local villagers. That's all I'm asking you to do, is come up with a name and a one-sentence description of the mythology or lore behind your monster, and for this assignment, you have five minutes to come up with that.
