Pinned to the noticeboards in the adventurers guild, and tacked to those within the crafting guilds of the realm, a multitude of blue and yellow fliers entreat onlookers to a contest of hammer and awl.
----
The Heartwood Trading Company is full glad to present an opportunity for novices and artisans alike to both learn and further their skills in the crafting of the realms required goods. Each week, the crafts mistress Korah Nellemond will be hosting a contest for those less inclined to the disciplines of the Hand to compete in small teams of three or less to test their mettle against their fellow inexperienced initiates. The most adept with unfamiliar tools will receive a generous sum to further their new-found trade. The discipline of focus for the first of these competitions is the working of hard metals into arms and armor.
Those more inclined to the procurement of materials should inquire with Heartwood for employment opportunities to supply the event with required materials.
Those skilled in a trade are urged to contact the event organizer if they've an interest in overseeing an event related to their trade.
Rules:
1.This event is open to those characters who are unfamiliar with Tradecraft IN CHARACTER, as a means to further interest in the less martial paths throughout Eorzea. Anyone is welcome to attend, but characters that are experienced blacksmiths will not be able to compete in an event focused on their trade. If anyone is interested in a competition for characters -with- skill in a trade, keep an eye out for a future event.
2. Until I have the event more established, or get some volunteers to help observe our aspiring artisans, I'll only be accepting up to four teams of three characters or less. Preference will be given to those who contact ahead of time.
3. Sabotage of opposing teams is strictly forbidden. Anyone caught doing so will be immediately disqualified.
4. You cannot work alone, a partner or team is required to participate.
How it works:
Each team will get a total of six 'synthesis rolls', to be done with the /random in game feature after a post about what it is they are trying to do with their creation. For a team of three, each member gets two each, for a partnership, three. Working without a team or partner will not be allowed. After all 'actions' for that team are completed, the total will be tallied. The team with the highest average (Not the highest total) will be the winner.
Time and Place:
Fridays at 9pm EST! Location for the next event will be posted a few days before it.
