Story contest!!!

HOI you guys, I know I've been gone for a long while, that's because I, um, forgot, my, um, password? (Silly me).
So anyways, I (finally) closed my Legendary contest - and this is a step up.
WARNING - This is not your usual "Make a card and post it" challenge. This is MUCH harder - you have been warned.
The base of this contest is making a story - yes, a WHOLE STORY, and making MTG cards of it.
Guidelines:
-Make cards for all the main characters.
-Make cards for all the key places.
-Make cards for all the key artifacts/items
-Put all cards in the same set
-Post a link to the set
-Post the story

Rules:
-Cards must have the same set symbol (you won't get a DQ for this - it will lower points.)
-No OP or broken cards (also lowers points)
-No Unglued/"Funny" cards, please (DQ)

Bonuses:
-Make cards for EVERY character, item, and place, even if not important (Most points, almost guaranteed win)
-Make cards for important events (Medium bonus)
-Have good art (Small bonus)
-Good flavor text (Medium bonus)

This contest takes quite a while to do - and judge. The contest will close depending on number of entries - as always.
PLEASE don't rush it - no bonus for being first.
Good day, and have a Happy Smithing!

  • @Dramon I think I won this.
  • @Dramon, does the theme have to be Magic?
  • @TrippleBoggey3 If you mean planeswalkers and stuff, no, but it has to be fantasy.
  • @Dramon, I got this. How do you want me to post such a long story. I don't think we could fit that in one post, or could we?
  • Anyone here know the post limit?
  • I keep posting stuff and it hasn't stopped me yet, so I think you'll be okay.
    XD
  • No the limit in one draft
  • Hey @Corwinnn, this may sound like a stupid question, but how do you post the picture of a card instead of the link?
  • The name of my story is An Artifice of Aristocrats. It's based on the conspiracies of Aristocrats and lords in a Fantasy based empire and it's pretty long. I'll only write the first chapter and post it, and I'll probably write the rest as a novel in the future for a school paper.

    An Artifice of Aristocrats

    It is year 1582 AUL (After Urza's Legacy). Magic has been unfound in this plane. The inhabitants are all human, with the Great North Continent consisting of the legendary empire Vlassal with its mystical capital city Coldhaven, along with its allied mini-kingdoms Vort, Koslav, and Quain. The South consists of the 13 warring kingdoms in the west, and the 3 Dukedoms in the east. At the very south consists of the City-States of the Harvest. But back to the city Coldhaven, where the emperor, Emperor Eustace the Uniter, of House Tartaurus, who united the 7 kingdoms into one empire. In his city, lords plot for money, officials conspire for power, royalty plan for Usurping and the shattered responses of politics lay yet untouched.

    A cool breeze blew through the warm air. Lord William (Will) of House Cecil stepped out of his solar. He was enjoying the sunset of Coldhaven, perhaps at the knowledge of the newly used policy of his being effective. He was the youngest of 3 sons, his family once being a ruling family of the 7 Kingdoms, as they once were royalty, even though they only controlled the Northwest, an area unsuited for crops and was the smallest region of the continent. He had been appointed the Minister of the Coin and was sent to Coldhaven to start his job. He had been a knight once, having fought battles but he still found this job more suitable. At age 23, he was the youngest minister of the empire.

    This is only the beginning. How do you like it?
  • @TrippleBoggey3 It's very nice! Remember to take your time - no need to rush it!
  • Can someone tell me what's wrong with the coding?
  • I can't seem to center the picture.
  • Why is my picture so blurry?
  • By the way, this might sound stupid, but how do you close a contest?

    I've been writing a novel over a few years. I suppose I could turn it into a synopsis of sorts and create some cards...

    We'll see!
  • I thought I could win... Until I found out that @Faiths_Guide has joined the contest...
  • Take it easy @TrippleBoggey3, I can be quite the procrastinator, and this thing will take a lot of effort XD

    @TrippleBoggy3 - you left some of the code incomplete, so it wasn't centered and you have a link for the card in place, but no link for the image.
    If the contest is yours, you just type in, "This discussion is closed" and then one of the mods will eventually come by and close it

    @Corwinnn Mine is shown as centered now and what link?
  • @Corwinnn, I'm confused what your saying...
  • I've written more, I'm just gonna post it when I'm done, okay?
  • @TrippleBoggey... nevermind, I couldn't see the image, but I was at work and that internet access is spotty at best
    I can see it now
  • I'm doing excellent on my story.
