[Ansteorra] A question for Ansteorran artisans

[C. L. Ward]

Greetings from Gunnvor!

Recently I've been participating in discussions with other Laurels
about whether or not Ansteorra should have a titled Kingdom
Artisan, along the same lines as we now have a Kingdom Bard.
Obviously, what *we* think about this doesn't matter nearly as much
as what the artisan community as a whole, and the kingdom at large,
thinks on this issue, so I thought I'd solicit some feedback...

(1) Do you think Ansteorra should have a titled Kingdom Artisan?
Why or why not?

(2) If a titled Kingdom Artisan were to be selected, how should
this person be chosen?  Competition? What kind of competition? How
judged? Royal appointment? Other? etc.

(3) What, if any, should be the duties and responsibilities of a
titled Kingdom Artisan, if such were to be selected?

Many thanks!
