Greetings Sector,

It is my privilege to be the one to announce a brand new annual contest, brought to you by the Glisal Crafting Bureau:

OMNICRAFTER 963 A.E.

This annual event will precede a month of festivities around the sector, celebrating our wonderful designers, artisans, creatives, mixologists, shopkeepers and anything to do with creativity and trade!

-----
PRIZE
-----
There is only ONE winner of this contest. Though the festivities, of course, may be enjoyed by all.

The winner will be awarded the HONOR of being titled 'Omnicrafter 963 A.E.', a trophy for their display cabinet, and a Crafter's Omnipass to allow them to really spread their creative wings!

A small celebration will take place in Litharge in the week following this, to award the winner with their prizes, celebrate all of the designers, and to showcase our favorite designs from the contest. Our favorites will be available to buy that evening (recompense will be given to the designers, of course).


-----------
SUBMISSIONS
-----------
To put yourself forward for this coveted award, you must design ONE item from EVERY tradeskill (not including mods):

Art
Cuisine
Fashion
Furnishing
Jewelry
Mixology

To be submitted by Yarsday in the 3rd week of Aether, 963 A.E. (// Sync at the end of the month!)

You must use patterns that already exist.

They must not go beyond what is possible using the patterns provided - no special requests or custom thiny-me-bobs, just demonstrate how creative you can be with the tools already provided by the Bureau.

We look forward to seeing your very best work,

Regards,

Przti Hyiki, Administration Officer - Glisal Crafting Bureau
