Basically, this is a copy of Rafis117's idea to help other players expand their army by giving them some background fluff. I've been helping him out in his thread, but to be honest (don't tell the 40K guys) I like you Fantasy folks more. So, I'll be taking submissions with anything you can give, Background, Ideas, or even just an Army List.
Submissions will be handled on roughly a First-Come, First-Serve basis. If I am falling behind or choose to delay a particular submission for any reason, I will post here to notify you.
If possible, I'd like submissions in the following forms:
-Name of Army/Character
-Some kind of background (army list, equipment, ideas, framework, etc)
-style of writing (if you have any preferences)
Things to remember
1: All forum rules apply. Trust me, I've been here a while, I don't really have time to deal with trolling or flaming.
2: Please keep your submissions reasonable and/or somewhat to the GW "cannon". I don't want to be writing about 'Winnifred the Peace-Loving Ork' for example.
3: I'd prefer not to write the same exact thing twice. I'll be keeping pending requests and completed requests as Permalinks here in this first post. Before you request a new piece, please just take a moment to look over the list of completed works and see if any of them suit what you need. I doubt this will be a problem, as most fluff requests are individual, but if you are requesting just "A Prince of Caledor and his Noble Dragon", please make sure that I haven't already written a peace for "A Prince of Caledor and his Noble Dragon".
4: If you have already written your piece, and are in need of an editor- that's not my job. I can edit your work, but please post it in YOUR OWN THREAD, and then post me a link and I'll go comment on it there. This is just to save everyone time and space. A good sign that your army background is in the state that I tend to work with is if it is short, vague, confused, a few attributes of the army, the army list, or a combination of those.
5: Please keep all your posts in here related to your requests. If you feel that I need to correct something in someone's fluff, you can send me a PM with the problem and I promise that I'll look into it. This is to avoid raging fluff debates and all kinds of other problems.
6: This will likely never be an issue, but I'm told I should include it. While I fully endorse anyone who would like to expand on these stories or characters for their own use, the initial rights to the story stay with me. I'm not going to be the "GW thought police" here- using the previous Ork example, if you want to change my fluff to name your character Winifred, and make him a pacificist, that's alright with me. This is mostly just for that rare once-in-a-lifetime shot that someone would ever want to publish me.
7: Finally- just a note to other authors: I don't expect to get bogged down or delayed here, so I think I'll be okay writing on my own. However, if you want to lend a helping hand, please PM me. I know that several of you are excellent writers and fluffmeisters and I'd be more than happy to have you on board. If you send me a PM, I'll take your skills into consideration and recruit you as soon as you're needed.
That's all, time to open up the shop to anyone who'd like a bit of fluff.
