Fansite item design contest

Question

• the fansite item suggestions must be posted as an answer to this topic
• the fansite item suggestions must comply with the technical/content details provided below
• the fansite item must somehow refer to TibiaQA but it's up to the contestant to decide on the final suggestion and design; Will it be a golden question mark? An emblem of the best answer? A scroll of a perfect question? Everything is up to the contestant and own, creative ideas are most welcome
• there's no limit to the number of suggestions one player can make

• if it is animated, you only need to supply an animated GIF of the item; otherwise, it needs to be saved as a 24bit PNG file
• it needs to fit into Tibia's setting
• it should not contain any direct references to a country, e.g. a Brazilian flag
• it's a deco or fun item only, it will not change any character skills or stats
