“Arlen craned his head upward as the monster approached. Even at a distance, it was a towering, hulking mass of sinew and sharp edges. Its thick black carapace was knobbed with bony protrusions, and its spiked tail slid back and forth, balancing its massive shoulders. It stood hunched on two clawed feet that dug great grooves in the dirt with every thunderous step. Its long, gnarled arms ended in talons the size of butchering knives, and its drooling maw split wide to reveal row after row of bladelike teeth. A black tongue slipped out, tasting Arlen’s fear.”
There are many types of corelings roaming the lands of Thesa and beyond. The landscape and climate of the region influences the size, shape and nature of the corelings. If you were to battle a demon of your own, what would it look like? How would it fight? What wards would keep its fearsome attacks at bay?
Contest Guidelines
1. Following the style in which Peat creates them, come up with a coreling of your own. Describe its physical attributes, strengths, weaknesses, habitat, size, armor and whatever else you think is important. This must be a demon of your making, but it certainly can be inspired by/related to the already created demons in Peat’s books.
2. Use words, pictures or both to describe your demon. Some people express their imaginings better with a paintbrush, others with a keyboard. The contest is open to anyone with an imagination, however you would like to use it!
3. The deadline for the contest is May 18th, 2012 at 11:59pm EST. That gives you exactly one month to design your coreling.
4. Please send all entries to contest@www.petervbrett.com. You can submit up to three entries (that’s three seperate species of demons), but feel free to submit multiple drawings/descriptions for each entry.
5. Above all, be creative!
Prizes
The Grand Prize winner will receive a copy of the Graphic Audio version of The Warded Man. This is a really special recording, simliar to an audiobook, but with a full cast, sound effects and music! The Grand Prize winner will also receive a poster and T-shirt featuring Lauren Cannon’s beautiful Renna art. The poster will be signed by the cast and Peat!
There are an abundance of other prizes up for grabs including signed copies of The Desert Spear, Graphic Audio T-shirts and posters, warded dice and Red Sonja comics.
Happy Coreling Creating!
