[Bards] Year-Long Challenge for all Ansteorran Bards

[Jay Rudin]

The official rules will be out by the end of January, guaranteed. I hope to have the complete first draft ready by Red Tape this weekend, for people to comment on, and the final in time for people to start at Bonwicke. But I guarantee it before Winterkingdom.

I hope to round it out to ten challenges, for a Bardic Decathlon. To enter the final end-of-year challenge, you will need to complete seven or eight (haven't decided) of the challenges, but I will give a prize to anyone who completes all ten.

Several will be challenges that any bard can simply decide to do (perform an original piece, perform another bard's piece, perform in three regions or kingdoms). But some will require some judge to agree that you have achieved it (entertain a Rose, perform a period-style piece), and you may have to try more than once.

Any questions? Any suggestions on challenges?
