What is considered a monster for the purposes of this challenge? 

This challenge uses a pretty flexible definition of monster: if you think someone or something counts, go for it. If you’re having trouble deciding on whether a character fits within monstrousness, you might consider whether they fit within something like the following category: a creature or entity that is non-human or not wholly human that many find frightening, strange, and powerful.
