A fun way to both boost creativity and earn some BP (and maybe some creatures!) can you face the Word Challenges?
Every month I'll post three lists of words, each with their own required word count. Use the words in posts, link back, and for each completed one get the BP the list offers! Here are the rules in detail.
1. Posts may be anywhere, be it around the weyr, in adventures, bondings, or even chases. Posts may also be in the creative writing section specifically for pre-Sunder adventures, so your characters' histories are counted too! (Not original or fan-based fiction, however.)
2. Posts must reach minimum word count lengths.
3. You may double up words from different categories. You may NOT double up two words from the same category, even from different lists.
4. If you are going to double up words, make sure to meet the largest minimum word count.
5. Don't forget that you can send me lists! PM Kay with a named list of themed words, and you can redeem for one free one-star creature per category per round. Color fades aren't necessary for the lists, just the title and the word lists. (As an addendum -- send me enough lists for three free creatures and you can instead redeem for one mutant creature! [mutation within reason approved by an admin, of course] if you'd prefer. Maybe you've noticed a few?)
5a. If you feel like saving up your Star Tokens, you can put them into the Weyr's Far-Go bank and stock up on coupons for later.
6. Also don't forget that points are per player, not character; it doesn't matter which character you're writing about as you're filling out the lists. ☺
7. Please BOLD the word so it's easy to find, and at the bottom note the list it came from and the word itself please. You can also note beside each list on your post when it's completed, but that's not necessary.
