Expectations and Explanations!

NOW

Guests can do everything else a participant can! They can make a forum of their AU in AU information! They can role play! They can make art!

The con might happen over the course of a month (roughly, might change) to allow plenty of time for people to do activities and interact and participate in what the on has to offer

[calebscornerofart]

WE LIVE

CREATURE CON MASTERPOST

Before we get started, please note that Creature Con is not a competition. There is no "winner" or "loser," but you can earn achievements! It'll be an online convention so that people can interact, share their stories, and make new friends!

Where and Who

Creature Con will be hosted on Discord! Both AU creators and guests are more than welcome to join.

However, guests do need to wait until all AU's are in and submissions are done for the Discord to be open to the public.

All TMNT generations are welcome!

What Counts As A Creature

For the purpose of this con, a creature counts as a character being a different thing, having something happening, or both! Here's a list:

Extra Mutations

Human Characters [April, Casey, ect.] Mutating

Curses [Vampire, Werewolf, ect.]

Mythical Creatures

Feral

Krangified

Ghosts/Spirits

Undead

Animal

Unmutated/Demutated

AU's will be separated based on category. If an AU fits multiple categories, the AU owner will be allowed to pick the one it goes in.

If your AU doesn't fit on here but you think they may apply or have a questions, contact one of the mods on the list below or send us an ask! However, do note some may count but might not be included as to not overwork the mods.

Participation

Their are many ways to participate! Interacting with AU's is the main one, but there are many ways to do this. Some ways include:

Making art

Writing

Roleplay [The Discord will have Tupperbox for Roleplay purposes!]

Gold Stars [Each AU participating gets one Gold Star that they can use/gift]

Asks [Both Discord and Tumblr]

If you do decide to make an ask on Tumblr, @ us and use event tags! We might miss it if you don't.

General Tags: #tmnt creature con #tmntcc

Specific Tags: #tmntcc art #tmntcc ask #tmntcc asks #tmntcc participant #tmntcc guest #tmntcc news

Interacting gets you achievements! Some will even be AU specific. Stay on the lookout for hints on hidden achievements as well, you never know what you might find.

Rules

While more rules will be available in the Discord once the server is open, here are some of the basics.

NO Tcest [This includes showing images/art with the intention of mocking it].

NO directed racism, ableism, transphobia, homophobia or sexism. If your AU contains these themes, they must be tagged and have the according TW/CW's.

Sensitive topics MUST be blocked out [In Discord, this means having || on either side of the word/sentence, which covers it] and tagged with TW/CW's.

NO Arguing, harassment, bullying, ect. If you have a problem with someone talk in private to sort things out, or contact a mod if they are causing issues.

NO heavy venting in the server.

NO spamming the server.

Want To Submit An AU?

When the forms are open, anyone is welcome to apply if their AU fits! As said above, it can be an AU from any generation. However, there are only 30 spots as to not overwhelm the mods with too many people!

SUBMISSION FORM

SUMISSIONS WILL BE OPEN FROM 6/19/2025 - 7/3/2025, WE WILL NOT BE TAKING ANY MORE SUBMISSIONS AFTER JULY 3RD AT 11:59PM UTC OR 6:59PM EST.

Once submissions are complete, there will be a break so everything can get set up and so invites can be sent out.

Some creators may be asked extra questions, here is where we'll ask if they are any extra TW/CW's forgotten when the form was filled out, along with things like custom achievements for the AU.

To make sure every AU has it's time to shine, there will be Spotlight Segments. During these, certain AU's from different categories will get focus put onto them. Think of it like a panel in an in person convention. This way, no AU gets overlooked!

Time of Spotlight Segments will vary depending on how many AU's we have attending.

It'll be held within a discord, not a real life location btw

SKETCHIEEE I'm one of the mods for the creature con thing and I saw you reblogged and guess what...I may or may not have mentioned your au in one of the possible AUs to invite 🌝

P.s. We are still figuring things out but so far things are looking swell :D we are excited and can't wait for everything to be properly structured! So far we just wanna get momentum going :3

Gurrrllll no way!!! You did what??? Yehehe thank you!!

Also, thats freaking cool that you're one of the mods for it!!

If its not a comp, what is it?

[calebscornerofart]

Hehehe, not quite

It'll be something new!

SOMETHING IS COMING

When exploring dimensions and universes, you don't always find you and your family to be... 'normal'. Sometimes, things happen and they are far from the turtles they once were. But that doesn't make them bad! Maybe all of the creatures out there need to know they're not alone...

TMNT: Creature Con is in development!

Are your silly little guys working through situations that have fundamentally changed them on a physical and/or mental level? Well we're here to say come on in! Creature Con is in the works for AUs of all levels of creepy, traumatized, haunted, cursed, mutated one too many times, and more!

We're still solidifying many things but if you or someone you know has an AU that deserves some love and hugs with all the spikes and blood and fangs and extra limbs then stay tuned! Spread the word even! We hope you'll think of participating ❤️

You know I don’t know why people rarely remember the pesticides April used on the Kranng.

It burned a hole in lady brain face.

If April could send a copy of the formula to Donnie for safe keeping, thanks.

The Kraang are parasitic organic aliens.

They could do something with that, it might not kill them off completely but it could weaken them!

Seriously!!!

[calebscornerofart]

doing a thing for my final and i made an edit for the intro

[calebscornerofart]

Yeah! Of course we can be allies for free pets! Donnie and Mikey have been making a map, let me grab it and you can have a copy

☆ A turtle approaches you;

{ He shows you pictures of a grumpy future Leo wearing a hood and a future Leo with half of his face covered in metal looking like Raph }

We've been busy finishing the map and have unfortunately been ignoring everyone else in the process

since its now done, you can have a copy to aid your search

@tmntaucompetition

[calebscornerofart]

You've encountered a worried Mikey looking for his nephew.

What do you do?

Context and bio stuff

We've been working on the map so we haven't really seen much people,,,

here maybe the map can help you

There was a wonderful discussion in the discord about this

It's ok to feel sad!

Today, my mood was: Sad but regretting nothing

Reminder to all the AU's that didn't win this last round;

It is ok to be disappointed about losing. Regardless of how friendly the comp is or how low-stakes it is, it can be frustrating and disheartening when you don't do as well in a competition as you'd hoped, with plenty of thoughts like "My work isn't good enough" tossed in there like sad croutons on a depression salad.

You aren't alone. It happens to all of us. I had an AU in a different competition and lost within the first couple rounds to a much larger and popular AU, despite all the propaganda and art and things I tried. It's normal.

Take a breather, experience it, let yourself deal with the emotions, but never stop creating. You are worth more than your ability to churn out a product to win a prize.

^^^^ THIS!

Multiverse ID Card

ok i finally got this done

my buddy @uncannyalien made the template! for the @tmntaucompetition

Ta-da

hopefully didn't miss anything,,

[calebscornerofart]

I'm so doing these

Have you heard the news? Remember Forever is in the TMNT AU Competition!

As a celebration, I've created more Multiverse Identification Cards, now more colorful and without a specified year!

Everyone is welcome to make these cards for their blorbos! It's a quick and easy way to share basic information with others, and provides a chance for some art without needing to do full body!

If the font at the bottom right is too small, it says "Information provided in the individual Multiverse Identification Card may or may not be accurate due to being limited by the law of Canon Continuity". This is to give creators the opportunity to keep information hidden if it is part of a reveal for their story!

For reference, here's this year's cards for Remember Forever below the cut!

That also means there's a stream or pond or some water feature near the cave hmmm ,,,

TMNT AU Competition Map!!

Hello! On behalf of everyone here at the @tmntaucompetition

IAB Au are charting the area to make a map!

I flew around to get the general layout of our location but it is no way done and we only have Ultimate Donnie's stand, the medical tent, and the tavern labeled and marked.

I know there's a cave in the mountains behind the woods and the flower field right outside the town. But!!! We need help from all of you!

(aka, any post that gives any location description please @ me or send it in the comp discord in the map survey chat! Im not in charge of what goes in or doesn't go in, I'm simply drawing the map from the information I've gathered from my fellow competitors and people interacting with the comp! There will always be some uncharted places so the map will never be filled and new locations can be added)

Here's the rough of the ma--

DONNIE???

WHY AM I SMOL???!!!

Oh mi gosh it's the lollipop

MIISSAAA

Uhhh, well here's the map

I've also heard that the keep has a massive pillow fort inside!!
