WINDCLAN LANDMARK COMPEITION
The WindClan HP team is looking to broaden WindClan's current landmark variety, so we figured what better way than to have some friendly competition! The prize for the winner? ONE MONTH OF DISCORD NITRO!
We want our community to have a hand in coming up with a new landmark and also having a say in which landmark gets implemented. Everyone who is BOTH IN WINDCLAN AND NOT IN WINDCLAN IS WELCOMED TO PARTICIPATE as this is not an in-character specific competition. That being said, entries can be made both ICLY and OOCLY.
IC OPTION ENTRY;
- If you wish to do some writing with your character, you may roleplay out your character discovering and exploring this landmark in a one-shot! Make sure your character clearly goes over what the landmark is, its main use and other potential uses, where on the territory its located, & optionally a name for the landmark.
OOC ENTRY OPTION:
- Really the same as the IC option, but you are writing in the third person instead of through the eyes of your character. Please still be thorough and describe what the landmark is, its main use and other potential uses, where on the territory its located, & optionally a name for the landmark.
When submitting a thread, please make it obvious in your title that it's a submission for the landmark competition and put them on the PRIVATE BOARD!
(ANOTHER NOTE: If you fear members may biasly vote for or against your landmark, you are welcome to submit your landmark privately to ava VIA DMs. You will ony be revealed as the creator of the landmark if you win. YOU WILL receive credit on the guide somewhere for your landmark, so don't feel like opting for this will take your chances of credit away)
Entries will then be voted on VIA Google Survey's (platform the clans host Clan Feedback survey's on). Each person on TabbyTales will only be allowed to vote ONCE and an email will be required when voting to ensure no one votes more than one time. Aside from who wins, the number of votes and who voted for what landmark will NOT be revealed to anyone except WindClan's OOC leader (ava).
RULES & OTHER IMPORTANT NOTES
- By entering you agree that WindClan may use your landmark concept.
- By entering you understand that WindClan's HP team will show your submission to staff to make sure if it wins the voting that we have permission to implement it. If for whatever reason staff denies it, we will let you know and inform you why they have.
- By entering you agree that the WindClan HP team may make tweaks to your concepts, we may add or remove elements of your idea and we may also come up with a different name from what you provided. Regardless, your landmark idea will NOT become unrecognizable to the concept you presented to us
- By entering you agree to have your landmark voted on
- IMPORTANT: the competition needs AT LEAST 3 ENTRIES for the prize of discord nitro to be handed out to the winner.
Another question floating around might be, what exactly is WindClan's HP team looking for in a landmark? We're more than happy to let you know!
Currently we are looking for a non-hangout spot as we already have Outlook Rock & the Sun-warmed pool, which both have their practical uses but 99% of the time are merely used as hangout locations icly. That's not to say your landmark can't be used as a place to relax, but it preferably wouldn't be your landmarks main use. We are also wanting to avoid locations meant to purely bring more danger to WindClan as we have the gorge. Same as above, your location can have its dangerous but going to the landmark shouldn't be a major risk in itself to a character like the gorge is
We would love for a bigger-end (not bigger than the farm, but bigger than the sun-warmed pool and badgerset den) landmark that is multi-use. But at the end of the day, we would be happy with a landmark that provides a different main use than the others we currently have (see below)!
(Outlook Rocks practical use = a lookout of the territory. Easy to spot dangers and trespassers. Sun-warmed Pools practical use = that herbs grow nearby and it's also a good place for Medics to treat and bathe wounds. Abandoned Badgerset practical use = shelter and a potential dangersite for returning badgers. The main use of the gorge = marking the RiverClan border and providing a dangerous/risky area for cats of WindClan to approach. The Horseplace is WindClan's twoleg interaction landmark)
Some ideas you could use and expand upon (more than one person can use these ideas, just know that only one will win);
- A Training Grounds (could also be used for hangouts & hunting as secondary uses)
- Could get more specific like an agility training grounds, a fighting training grounds, etc or make the landmark efficient for all sorts of training!
- Popular *large* hunting locations, a copse of trees, a popular water-source for the clan and prey, etc
- A cat-made hiking/walking trail with sticks and rocks to point you in the right direction. Could be used commonly as a racecourse
- Any F2U starter ideas anyone has to offer can also be thrown here!
For now please avoid;
- Landmarks only certain cats could use (tunnelers or moor runners only, apprentices only, etc) Not to say they couldn't be popular among a certain rank though!
- Landmarks populated by twolegs
- A reminder to avoid landmarks with the same or similar main uses as ones we already have now
If you have ANY questions don't hesitate to ask in the replies below or in WindClan's discord server! Thank you for reading and we hope to see your concepts soon!!
