Marauding MonstersStart Date: May-01-2023
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...
List of Monster:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...
Rules
1. Each monster has a set of required tasks that must be completed in order to vanquish the monster.
2. Books can be used to complete more than one task, but only for the same monster. If you can find a single book that meets all five tasks, congratulations, you defeated the monster with just one book! Expect other teams to notice this and copy your choice ;)
3. Teams/individuals can have up to 5 monsters to vanquish at any time.
4. Monsters are assigned at random and may be repeated by the same team/individual.
5. We like players to be creative, that's what makes this fun. However, please do not hurt yourself over thinking the tasks. If there still is some indecision, post in the Q&A thread or just find a different book.
6. Once you vanquish a monster and get a replacement it should be considered locked and you cannot swap out books.
