Let's go to Australia and poke horrible things with a stick for fun!

It's time for my first Pocket Apocalypse giveaway! Hooray! This giveaway is going to be US addresses only; I'm still mailing T-shirts, and my post office workers are starting to mysteriously go on break when I show up, because of all the international packages. I know it's not fair, but I can't add more customs forms to the pile or they're going to close completely.

I will do open-to-international giveaways before the book is released, and I'm hoping to clear out more of the pending packages in the next week or so.

So, the rules for this one:

1. Leave a comment.
2. Indicate that you have a US address I can ship to. (You don't have to live in the US. You just have to have a US address.)
3. Name your favorite cryptid and why.

I will use the RNG to choose three winners on Tuesday, January 27th. But there's a twist! Only one person can win for each cryptid. So be honest! Name your favorite! Just be aware that the odds are lower for the Aeslin mice than for, say, the swamp bromeliads.

The field guide is here, if you need some help.

Game on!

Revenants!

ProtoMat

I am in the US with a US Address

I have to pick Revenants. The idea of there being not only a true "Frankenstein's Monster" (Insensitive term, I'm sure. I apologize) but that there is more than one.

I'm genuinely curious as to how many have been encountered.

Are there families or other organized communities of them? Maybe some kind of regular meetings to compare notes for regular upkeep of themselves, good sources of still functioning parts? Or even just swapping of the dozens of Mad Scientist Jokes.

Are there multiple methods of reanimation? Or did one man discover the process and distribute his findings in the name of furthering science? So many more questions, but none that need to be answered, as the mystery sparked by what little information we Do Have is more than enough to keep my fascination.
