Daffodil is not only a place where Marshal Arts contests will be
had, but also those of the Gentle Arts! As usual there will be the
Daffodil Any Medium and Costume Contests, and we will be continuing
with having two categories (Novice and Advanced) for each of the
A&S competitions. The details of the contests are as
follows:

Daffodil Any Medium Contest: This is a
free-for-all A&S contest. Submit whatever medium you like, from
cloth to food to paint to poetry.
Anything goes, so long as its Daffodil themed.

Daffodil Costume Contest: Dont let the name
fool you, this A&S contest doesnt require your submission to be
Daffodil themed. Submit a piece of garb completed by yourself,
whether a single item or an entire ensemble, the choice it
yours.

Novice Category: This category is for those
newer to the world of A&S will require only 1 page of brief,
basic documentation (the who, what, where, when and why of your
entry).

Advanced Category: This category is for more
experienced artisans and will require a more robust and standard
Baronial level documentation of no more than 3-5 pages long. Please
