Monthly Quest



Monthly quest is, as the name tells, a prompt that changes at the 1st day of each month. You CANNOT take part in the past monthly quests, but you can take part in the current month's quest as many times as you wish! Taking part in the quest earns extra FP for every Kuku in the picture, and you have a chance to roll for the special familiar, background or item of the month!

Do note that the monthly reward is given only for the person who posted/drew/wrote the picture/literature, and it is not rolled for each kukuri in the picture. In cases of collaborations, you are required to link the collab partner clearly to the description of submission, if they are the one posting the submission for roll. However, one submission can be rolled only for one person, so if you both wish to have loot rolled, you're required to complete two collabs.

Always link kukuris into description! Failing this might result for no FP getting rewarded.

The last day to submit, is the second to last day of the month.

Current Quest

January 2024

The cold weather isn't sparing anyone this winter, certainly not those who decided to brave the wilderness in such harsh conditions. A recent call for help has been made by a local search and rescue team; they need all the help they can get as more and more lost campers, hikers, and stray animals find themselves trapped high in the mountains! Will you brave the cold and high altitudes to help?

Recon
Half the battle of helping those stuck is just finding where they are. Trudging through snow and ice or flying through the icy air to locate someone in the great wilderness takes will power not many have.
Draw or write about your kukuri attempting to locate someone lost on the mountains. Do they use their survival skills and track them or do they wander around aimlessly? Maybe they are the ones who are lost?

Guide
You've found the lost person or animal… now the second half of the battle: getting them to safety. Guiding those who are injured, sick, or just confused can be extremely hard in the best of conditions, not to mention in the winter wilderness.
Draw or write about your kukuri guiding another back down the mountains. Do they accidentally lead their companion off a cliff? Maybe they expertly navigate the terrain?
(another creature is required for this prompt, kukuri, animal or handler)

First aid
Not all trapped are lost, some are injured. It's time to show off your first aid skills under the pressure of a winter storm and limited time.
Draw or write about your kukuri giving another creature first aid. Do they faint at the first sign of blood? Maybe they are an expert at this task?

Each entry is eligible for +2FP bonus on each kukuri and has a 30% chance to be rewarded with Mountain Tops BG set!
