[Atlantia-Announce] Scrivener Royal competition for Cuan and Signy's reign

[Geffrei Maudeleyne via Announce]

Competition to choose the next Scrivener Royal.

The Scrivener Royal is essentially the scribal champion for the Crown. The
term of office is the same as the reign of the monarchs crowned that day.

Part of being the Scrivener Royal is working with illuminated blanks of a
style that demand calligraphy you are not familiar with such as using
pre-painted blanks, all is left is the calligraphy. It may be that the
recipient's persona or your available blank needs a hand different from your
most used one.

All entries into the competition must be submitted no later than noon,
Saturday of Coronation to give judges time to make recommendations to the
Crown.

In consultation with Their Highnesses the following is the competition for
Scrivener Royal: CALLIGRAPHY.

RULES: *Prepare new original text for 3 different Kingdom awards but they
MUST follow the Atlantian scribe norms for award wording. *You will enter 3
samples of calligraphy - Uncial, Carolingian Miniscule and any version of a
gothic hand. Have the text be different for each hand. *These will not be
used for actual award scrolls so space does not need to be left for
illumination.

Any form of paper used for scrolls, pergamentata, or velum is acceptable.

The standardized judging sheet for calligraphy will be used.
