Wordsmith Guild
Lyceum Charter
Purpose:
The Lyceum is a group of individuals with a talent and passion for writing. We are the City's masters of the written word: scribes, historians, journalists, and even artists. We are the stewards of the Archive of Planes and the Convergence Museum.
Once a month the Lyceum will hold a bardic meeting or specialty event.
Wordsmith Seekers:
- Each Seeker must have Inscribe and Translocate.
- Each Seeker will be mentored by one of the Wordsmiths.
- Each Seeker will perform a series of mini-quests written by their mentor.
- Each Seeker must have a written or verbal support from the majority of the current Wordsmiths to join.
- Each Seekers' contributions will be graded based on effort, quality, and clear content, as well as spelling and grammar.
Wordsmith Upkeep Duties:
- Interviewing
- Journalist work (news articles)
- Historian work (history documentation)
- Poetry & Fictional stories
- Art commissions
- Lyceum related events/projects
- Bardic Circle
- Welcome Center Upkeep
- Mentoring
- Once a month every Mark holder must complete the equivalent of a mini quest, but is urged to do more.
- Three months of inactivity (being absent from the City) will result in removal of the Mark, as well as stagnation while dreaming (not contributing).
- Returning Wordsmiths -from this city- must undergo one admittance task to regain their Mark and Archive privileges. This task will be decided upon by the current Wordsmiths.
Oath:
I, [name], hereby swear to uphold the duties of the Wordsmiths and honor the written word. I promise to keep the integrity of my Mark in tact, and to never present a known falsehood as truth within my writing. I understand that this is both an honor and obligation, and will not seek to use this Mark to elevate myself above others.
