A&S Competition
For this year’s Baronial arts and sciences competition the theme is “Old and New”.
Time to complete an unfinished project you have laying around and use up some of the supplies you have stockpiled. If you do not have an unfinished project, I don’t believe you, but you can collaborate to finish a project started by someone else.
We will be using the East Kingdom arts and sciences grading rubric, so please take a moment to familiarize yourself with it before the event.
