Wordsmith Guild
Lyceum Chater
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 special 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. (See 'Upkeep Duties' for some quest examples)
- A written support or verbal support during meetings must be obtained from the majority of the current Wordsmiths.
- The Seekers' contributions will be graded based on effort, quality, and clear content, as well as spelling and grammar.
Mentors:
Each Mentor must keep track of their Seeker's progress and update the rest of the Lyceum regularly.
Upkeep Duties:
Interviewing Journalist work (news articles) Historian work (history documentation) Poetry & Fictional stories Art commissions Lyceum related events/projects Mentoring Archival Work
- 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 the 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 intact 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.
