Noms open!

[cotsexchange]

 Nominations are open!

Are you ready to bring some dwarf love to the world? Nominate your favourite characters, pairings, and friendships to the Children of the Stone tagset.

 

Nominations will run until 11:59 p.m. EST on March 11.

 

Each person may make up to 10 nominations. You can nominate individual characters (or specific character groups) for gen or non-romance-focused fic/art, or ships for fic/art with a romantic theme. Characters nominated must be dwarves; ships must include at least one dwarven character. For the purpose of nominations and matching, all tags in our tagset will be filed as character tags.

 

What this means:

 

• If you are interested in requesting fic or art focused on Sigrun’s life, which may or may not include minor or non-specific elements of romance or friendship, nominate “Sigrun.”
• If you are interested in requesting fic or art focused on a romantic relationship between Sigrun and Velanna, nominate “group: Sigrun/Velanna.”
• If you are interested in requesting fic or art focused on a platonic friendship between Sigrun and Velanna, nominate “group: Sigrun & Velanna.”

Eligible characters include:

 

• Dwarven Wardens or Inquisitors (please specify gender)
• Dwarven companions and NPCs
• Dwarven characters from other Dragon Age media
• Historical dwarven characters
• Dwarven characters from canonical codex materials
• Golem characters who consider themselves dwarves
• Characters whose race is not stated in canon (specifically as dwarves—use the format “dwarf!NAME”)
• Original characters, in the format of (for example) “original casteless dwarf,” “original female Kal-Sharok dwarf,” “original Shaper,” etc. (if you are nominating for a ship, please ensure gender is specified)

You may not nominate specific dwarven OCs or canonical non-dwarf characters (except as a second member of a ship that also includes a dwarf).

 

The tagset can be found here.
