Hi everyone! Isaria here, the Director of Content for @steemmonsters.
I'm very excited to be working on this project along with @aggroed and @yabapmatt!

I know there's already a ton of community excitement regarding @steemmonsters as we can see from the activity in the Steem Monsters Discord and I'm looking forward to finding ways to involve the community here on the blockchain!

I've created 3 Weekly contests.
Each contest will award 5 booster packs to the winner and 5 more booster packs will be divided among the runner ups, for a total of 30 booster pack prizes a week!

The Contests

Individual Card Fantasy Lore Contest

All Common and Rare cards will have a backstory created by the winners of this contest!

Every Monday a card will be presented for you to create a fantasy background story for that specific card.
You will need to make a Steemit post on your own account with the story, then submit the link to your post in the comments of the @steemmonsters submission post.
Every Friday the winner and runner ups will be announced and the best story submitted will become the official story in the game!

On the website, when you click on the card you will see Combine All.
A Story button will be added so that when you click on that, you will see the winner's story for that particular card!
Story credit will be shown as well as a link to your story on the blockchain!

Steem Monster Fan Art Contest

I'm already seeing some pretty cool fan art in the discord channel so I'd like to give Artists the opportunity to create even more!
I'm using the word "Art" as an umbrella term in this case.
You can create Steem Monster drawings, paintings, digital art, music, etc.
You can even make Steem Monster blog dividers and blog footers.
Just make a post on your own steemit account with your art then submit the link in the comments of the submission post.
The submission post will go out every Tuesday and the winners will be announced every Saturday.
Eventually there will be a Steem Monsters fan art video series on the website.
In the meantime, I'll be presenting the fan art in a video series here on the blockchain.
With the artists permission, Steem Fan Art can also be used in @steemmonster posts and even on the website which will include Artist credit as well.

Fantasy Story of the Week Contest

We've already seen Steemians creating some great fantasy stories inspired by Steem Monsters so I want to give writers a chance to keep sharing their work.

The submission post will go out every Wednesday and the winners post will go out every Sunday.

This is an open ended, free-write Steem Monster fantasy/lore story contest.

I'm very excited to see all the entries to these contests!
The contests will start next week with the first one being posted on Monday!
If you have any questions just let me know in the comments or contact me on Discord!

Thank you!
