Competition! Write a class guide for Narfell (EXTENDED)
-
The Narfell staff would like to see new and updated guides written for each playable class in Narfell. Since Narfell's a game, why not make it a competition! So, we're offering participants rewards for first, second, and third place. The winning guides, of course, will be featured as the official Narfell class guides in the player handbook, and their authors will get 2000 1E exp and a 5 point enchanted item.
Note that we reserve the right to withhold second and/or third place prizes - so don't throw together a quick post just to get on the list of potential second or third place winners. That said, you'll get your prize if you provided some genuine competition to the first place winner. Attentus also reserves the right to change the rewards at any time.
Here are the rewards for each place.

1st: 2000 xp and 5 point item
2nd: 1000 xp and 4 point item
3rd: 500 xp and 3 point itemHere's what we look for in a class guide:
Overview of the class
Character concepts
Hints and Tips
Narfell specific rules
Handy linksThe purpose of these guides is to help players form ideas for their character and give them critical bits of information on things like rules or overrides. The best authors for these guides are those who have played the class for a while and truly understand how it works. Remember, we're looking for conceptual advice, not specific builds - though certainly there could be talk about feats and skills, and such. We don't want a "this is right, this is wrong" guide.
Format it how you like, but that's the gist of what we'd like to see in a class guide.
Please send all submissions to either Fraoch or myself via PM by May 18th, 11:59 PM GMT-8. After that date, the team will deliberate and vote on the best guide for each class. Results should be in by June 3rd, 11:59 PM GMT-8. The team (except myself and Froo) will be blind to the authors of all submissions until the competition is over.
Sincerely,
Narfell staff
SHAR TAKE YOU
-
Thank you to everyone who contributed.
The guides are unlocked and players are invited to add their own hints and tips as they think of them.
A druid guide is in the works and we hope to be able to offer it before very long.
Authors are of course welcome to take credit for their hard work
We just didn't want to post them in case some don't.
-
Results are in! Entrants, please check your inboxes.
Guides will be posted in the next few days.
-
And DM Sponsor found! Eoden, hurrah! Results will be in soon.
-
The polls have closed for voting on the class guides. But we're a little tripped up by Attentus' resignation, so give us a few days to find our new DM sponsor. Thanks!
-
Bump bump bump! 16 hours remaining for submissions and adjustments before voting commences.
-
The staff will now deliberate on the guides. You can still send yours in, but do it soon, or yours will get less deliberation time than others! And -definitely- do it before we start voting!
-
bump Get your guides in!
-
Competition extended.
-
This is something open to everyone. Brand new players and DMs of long standing included.
If you think that your insights could help someone starting out in a class you're familar with, we'd love to hear from you.
You're also more than welcome to send your guide from an alt account so that not even Syied or I know who's written it.
-
You're welcome to include material from old guides where appropriate (and up to date).
And just to reiterate what Syied already said; we're not looking for lists of builds.
