Happy New Year! And here is a new Witchery Monster Prompt event for 2025!
This time it's a Bingo for writers, artists, and readers!
Rules: Try to get a bingo by
A) creating something for the prompt (fic, art, gifs etc.)
or by
B) reading & commenting on and/or reblogging & recommending a fic/piece of art that fits the prompt.
You can mix options A and B on your card and combine prompts with other events if they allow it.
Use the ready-to-use bingo card below or make your own bingo card with the Witchery Monster Prompt Wheel. Spin the Wheel and fill in the first prompt in a blank bingo card. Spin again and fill in the next prompt etc. You can choose from three different sizes (see below the cut).
If you'd like me to reblog your posts, tag @witchermonstermayhem and #monsterbingo when you share your work and bingo card on tumblr.
You can also add your works to the Ao3 collection.
The bingo card can be used throughout the entire year 2025. You can create as many cards as you'd like to.
If you have any questions, please send me an ask.
Have monstrous fun with the Witchery Monster Bingo!

FAQs
Can I submit prompts?
Yes, please feed my ask-box with prompts that you'd like to see in the months to come!
Does there have to be a monster in the story/the artwork that is important for the plot/the piece of art? - Yes, definitely! The monster can be purely imaginary though, like in a dream, or maybe people only think there is a monster, but it turns out there is not. It must be a driving force of the plot/central element of the artwork, though.
What is a monster? - "A monster is a type of fictional creature found in horror, fantasy, science fiction, folklore, mythology and religion. Monsters are very often depicted as dangerous and aggressive with a strange, grotesque appearance that causes terror and fear. Monsters usually resemble bizarre, deformed, otherworldly and/or mutated animals or entirely unique creatures of varying sizes, but may also take a human form, such as mutants, ghosts and spirits, zombies or cannibals, among other things. They may or may not have supernatural powers, but are usually capable of killing or causing some form of destruction, threatening the social or moral order of the human world in the process." "Wikipedia - Monster"
Must the monster be evil and scary? - No, not necessarily. There are "good" monsters in the original Witcher books, like Dopplers or even a Higher Vampire. The monster could also just be a mischievous goblin that hides socks. Humour and fluff very welcome!
Must the monster die? - That is totally up to you. There are quite a few examples in the books where Geralt does not kill the monster, even cases where he befriends it.
Is sex with a monster allowed? - Sure, why not? Just tag it accordingly if it is nsfw or any warnings/triggers apply (like non-con etc.).
