To further extrapolate on what subject material we are looking for, the following clarifications and requirements have been codified.
Geography
Geographic contributions should be between 1 and 5 paragraphs in length, and describe a particular feature, such as a forest, mountains, swamps, etc. Important features and inhabitants should be noted. Additionally, any historical events surrounding the feature can be included.
Organizations
Includes contributions of organizations, such as knightly orders, cabals of wizards, witch covens, particularly important merchant guilds, noble houses, etc. The description of such organizations should not be less than 2 paragraphs. Incredible detail (such as ranking system) is not required, although founding individuals would be appreciated, as well as the purpose behind the organization and any plot/conspiracy they are involved in.
Characters
Detailed accounts of individuals that are currently amongst the living (or undead) should be no less than 2 paragraphs. Characters should be of one of the core fantasy races (human, elf, dwarf, halfling, gnome and orc) , although particularly interesting non-demihumans may be considered for inclusion (such as dragons, fae, demons, etc.)
The character's involvement with already written material is a plus, but not required (later editing can integrate them).
A physical description is desired, including any notable features. Goals, agendas, and any notable personality quirks and traits should also be included. Additionally, they can be used to showcase an organization they are involved in, or a geographic area they dwell within.
Deities
Andorus is a world with a large pantheon, and as such, there is room for a multitude of gods and goddesses that bear different facets, and many may overlap. For inspiration, Babylonian, Roman, Greek, and Lovecraftian Mythos should be consulted.
Details of deities should be no less than 2 paragraphs, complete with physical description, alignment, their portfolio, their goals, description of followers, and at least one holiday associated with them (even if it is not widely practiced).
Additionally, splinter factions are welcome, such as sub-cults that worship the deity in an alternate form or attribute different ideas to the deity.
Artwork
Artwork to be accepted should largely be of the typical "sword and sorcery" fare, with a more humanocentric focus, such as in the depictions of Middle Earth, Conan the Barbarian, Dragonlance, etc. Images should be in digital format (jpg and png are preferred), and can be anything as simple as a line drawing that would fit in the corner of a page, up to full page pieces.
For example, we are primarily looking for pictures of the following: swordsmen, knights, wizards and sorcerers, swashbucklers, vikings, renaissance aristocracy, Roman parties, gladiators, dwarves, elves and orcs. Additionally, we will accept monstrous creatures.
When sending a contribution, please include the name you wish to have included in the "Contributors" section of the book.
