Story Format Rules For Submission
In order to create consistency among all the cards, we need a generalized story format which includes The Hero's Journey story arc and Elemental characteristics.

- character background
- Call to action
- something forces the character to leave on an adventure
- Tension

Thank god I was not the only last minute entry. Now off to read yours.
Thank you for the opportunity and good luck everyone :D
Creative and destructive. A meandering story, indeed, like the rivers of lava that flow through Molten Mountain.

Sorry for so late an entry, got busy again, summer and nice weather. Here is the start of Jagalish Goblin Shaman Journey. I have been having fun doing these, learning to write a story is not easy, I still hope to take all my little entries and one day fill in all the little blank areas and flesh out a real story.
Interesting idea for a writing contest... Sounds fun! If I can find the time, I'll throw my metaphorical hat in the digital ring to see what I can come up with.
EDIT: I found the time. Got both a little story and even some flavor text.
