A double-feature, belated Bornktober and Glogtober: GLAUGUST 2025

So last year I wanted to get into Morktober, which coincidentally was also Bonktober. I decided to combine the prompts for extra fun, because nothing is more fun than adding more things on your plate. My campaigns that semester had ended by then, but then I had to go overseas for work (!?!?) and the prompts helped me along by giving me something to hang my idle imagination on- though honestly, more of my hyperfocus energy at the time was more directed at Warhammer 40K sector generation stuff.

It's been more than half a year since. So might as well finish this combined Bornktober up ! I'm posting this to keep myself accountable- for the rest of June I'll post my ideas for the combined prompts each day- hopefully this also galvanises me to get the brain working again, and perhaps post various sundry RPG stuff that comes to me.

^ I wrote this is June, as you can tell, and I didn't get around to it. Brain was frazzled. BUT that meant when I finally had the wherewithal to start writing again, I got hit with GLAUGUST.

That means a combined ... lots of prompts (if we're going maximalist. Really you only need to do one prompt from each of the six categories for GLAUGUST). Enough to tie up August and September, until the actual Bonktober/Morktober/Glogtober this year. So! A combined challenge: To post as much as I can from the Bornktober combined list, and as much from GLAUGUST 2025 list. 67 ideas, 60 something days until 1st October. Awesome.

 


I can't draw so here's some cool bonkle art that has a more black metal vibe, and morkborg art. Credit Eden Sanders for Tahu, u/Mantleheart for Tarakava and Kopaka, and Johan Nohr for She
 

IN SUMMARY:

I will be doing a belated Bornktober 2024, and hopefully over the next few months GLAUGUST 2025.

Here's Prompt 1!
