What Will You Be Creating ?

As an ARTIST

Draw a piece based off of ONE of the three prompts given to you & include the wildcard in some way!

Post your piece in on time!

Use a square canvas

You'll be either drawing OC/Leon or Leon alone if there's no OC!! (OC doesn't need to be big! can be a chibi, cookie, doll, or some other sort of reference to the OC too!)

Post on Tumblr with the tag #leonsecretsanta2024 

Tag your giftee & us when posting the piece!!

As a WRITER

Write a piece based off of one of the prompts, one of the tropes, and wildcard! (trope + prompt + wildcard = piece)

Post your piece in on time!

Your word count will be 1k-5k! Nothing over, nothing under!!

You will be writing reader insert for inclusivity instead of OC!!

Post on tumblr with the tag #leonsecretsanta2024

Tag your giftee & us when posting the piece!!

Bonus for Writers! Please ensure your secret santa is tagged in the first line of text alongside the combo (trope/prompt/wildcard), example below:

What are the elves gonna be up to?

well, luckily for a lot of us, the elves are in on this too! For starters, the elves will be making a masterlist for every single piece for this exchange! Of course, the elves will be busy reblogging the pieces as they're posted, so keep your eyes out on this blog!

[leonsecretsanta]

Fellow creators, keep your eyes peeled open on monday or tuesday for your secret santa recipient!

Our elves are busy making connections and preparing the event for our first year! They're trying very hard, so keep your dms open, eyes peeled, and make sure to let them contact you!

Hi! Question, for OC reference sheet in the sign-up form, does it need to be a public post to link or can we put a link for a private doc or something with it? Thank you!

Hi! It seems that enough of you are interested in the event, so please sit back as the team gets started on the google form for the event! Worry not, it'll be open for 2 weeks to get all the interested people in, and then you'll have two months to prepare the piece! It'll be due at 12am on your Christmas day!

just a warning in advance, we will be vetting for AI generated content! Whether that be character ai or chatgpt, or any sort of ai-art generator, we will be looking through everything!

So, we will be asking for a portfolio or a link to your account so that we can skim through!

If you have any questions, the askbox is open! Feel free to drop by <3
