NarniaMUCK

We're updating species info and we want YOUR help. Write an article on any species answering these questions:

How big is it?
How heavy is it?
How much can it carry (both in weight and bulkiness)?
Does the species have a "government" exclusive to the species? e.g. how does it make group decisions (or does it)?
What are the cultural norms of the species?
What does every [species name] know?
Is it normally able to read?
Is it normally able to write?
What special abilities might it have?
What special drawbacks might it have?
What did the species do during the 100 Year Winter?
What is a general history of the species?
Is it mentioned in canon? If so, where?

You MAY submit multiple entries (my advice is one per alt, but go crazy). You MAY use what is available in current Species Info articles. You MAY ask your friends for help. You MAY make up suggestions if the information is no where to be found. You MAY add additional information. You may also omit answers if you just don't know, but the best entries will hopefully have thoughtful, researched answers to all questions.

Please send your answers to staff@narniamuck.org. Deadline is June 28.

We might use some, all, or none of any given entry in the actual game.

Prizes are negotiable for reasonable requests.

NOTE: We are still deciding whether we can ship to folk outside of the US. If we choose not to, the list of book recipients will get bumped down as appropriate, and the winner may choose an additional painting, apples, or in-game items.

The book prizes, by the way, are courtesy of the generosity of Feaelin. He's too cool, if we're honest.

As always, feel free to mail me or reply here with any questions.

Antheia's Advice for TOTALLY WINNING:

> Collaborate with your friends. Each of you pick different species, and help build each other's articles. You can enter together if you prefer, but you'll have to choose how to split up the prizes yourselves, so collaborating on separate projects will be easiest.
> Read old logs. (This can get you started, but ask around, there's resources all over! http://narniamuck.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=418)
> Read what we have in Species Info already. Some of the questions are already answered, or partially answered -- but if you don't like something that's in there now or you think it's inaccurate, you can use this to make a suggestion on how the article ought to change.
> Reread the books. Especially for the highly featured species, like Wolves or Fauns. Get a feel for how Lewis portrays them.
> Research. How does that species behave in the wild? In mythology?
> Have fun: make stuff up! Lots of these species have never been fully developed. Now's your chance!

The deadline for this has been extended to July 1! Please enter, even if you don't have all the answers! We want to see your thoughts!
