Sorry if a question about this contest doesn't go here, but here it is anyway.

If my character doesn't have poetry skill, can he still participate in the contest?

Certainly! :) One can always attempt anything. If you don't have a skill, it is a good way to earn it. ;)

And the contest will be based on the actual poem created and the roleplaying presentation of it, not if you have the skill or not. :)

Edit: Well, after trying last night and some of today to think up a poem, I decided I'm not going to be able to come up with a good one. So, I'm withdrawing from the contest and editing my post.

Perhaps not for the prize, but certainly for the poetry :)
I'm in.

What kind of bard would I be, if I did not participate? :wink:

Hey, Brogan. Here's a limerick you can use:

There once was a Caesar dubbed "Cranky,"
Who greeted flowers with a hanky,
Linking with a lady of snow,
Which was done all for show,
Tis a sad state of affairs, speaking frankly.


I'm sure it will make an impression on Caesar. :roll:
