Hello Mizahar!
Since this week marks Imbolc out in the world, I thought it would be fun to have a Fire Festival Week Challenge! Why fire? Well, this week marks Imbolc, a very unsung hero of a holiday usually starting Feb 1st and ending Feb 2nd denoting halfway between the Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox irl. I am a hater of winter (Sorry winter lovers!)... so Imbolc always symbolizes hope for me that my beloved Summer will return soon.
The challenge will be simple. You get credit for every 2.5K word thread you write. You can use this to fill in placeholders, catch up on skills, do a whole host of things. The only common theme you need to have in your threads is the presence of fire. You can be sitting by a campfire. You can be cooking over a hot stove. You can be shooting burning arrows. You can even be setting Sunberth on fire. Each thread must have fire in it....
And as a prize? I will post a huge list of weapon, clothing, and armor augmentations... things like waterproof, never dulls, flaming, frozen, etc... and for each 2.5k thread you write, you get a random roll on the augmentation list. You can then augment your personal favorite items (the augmentation can stack!) or you can put something neat on a bunch of different things. This is a good time to start a new skill if you have big future dreams for your character.
Hopefully this is broad enough that it will appeal to the fighters, bards, poets, artists, and socialites equally.
I hope you all enjoy this. The challenge starts now. It will end Sunday night at ten pm PST. As always, sign up below, list your threads and word counts... and put a note by each thread as to what fire element is in the thread.
