Here we go again! This contest requires a bit more work than the other two contests. Because of this, I've dropped the word "mini" out of the title.
Contest #3 (Tell me a Tale, Weave me a Yarn)
This contest is open to those competing in the tournament and to those not competing. I will also be posting this contest in the creative writing section of our forum.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to write a back story of one of the characters in the Crossed Swords Tournament. It can include more than one of the characters in Crossed Swords, but should focus on one particular character.
This story can be about whatever you wish. An adventure, a lesson learned, a funny anecdote, a story from dibbunhood, an event with a relative, or anything else like the a fore mentioned.
If you have a question about subject matter for your tale, PM BrookSkimmer for details.
Rules:
1. The story must be 800 words or less but not below 300.
2. If you are using another person's character you need to PM them for permission. If they decline your request, figure out another way to write your story.
