(This page was not meant for public distribution. Please return after reading. Or don’t. No one ever does.)
Introduction
Before a bounty can be approved, categorized, and pinned to the public board, it must be reviewed by a certified Guild Clerk and marked with the appropriate Classification Stamp. These stamps help field hunters quickly gauge the risk, absurdity, or outright danger of any given request.
Please note:
- Stamp categories may overlap.
- Stamps do not guarantee survivability.
- Certain stamps have been known to react to moonlight.
Below is a partial list of active classifications.

Curses, enchantments, fey meddling, memory loss, dream-based hazards, possession, and cases involving voices that aren’t supposed to be there.

Guild Form: 2-C — Contained or Containable Lifeform

Fluff, fang, talon, tail. From rabid mop hounds to spectral elk.

Everything else. Unclassifiable anomalies. Spontaneous portals.

This document is subject to updates. If your bounty includes behavior that seems unstable, whispery, or recently glowing, please notify the Guild Clerk before approaching the board. Stamps are not edible, magical, or removable without consequence.
Seriously, don’t lick them.
