The '''Fellowship of Scarlatti''' is an organisation that sponsors works of excellence in the written and visual art fields. Its hall is located in [[Delos]], as opposed to [[Cyrene]] or [[Caer Witrin]]. As such, it should be noted that the Fellowship is not linked in any official way to either the religious Order of [[Scarlatti]], or [[Ty Beirdd]], the House of Bards.
:''This page is about the council for fine arts. For other uses, please see [[Bards (disambiguation)]].''


Sponsorship comes by way of [[credits|credit]] rewards. Artists and writers are free to submit works within their field at will. Roughly every thirty Achaean months, the submissions from the previous thirty months are judged, with multiple credit prizes going out to the winner, runners-up, and winners of merit awards.

The Fellowship of Scarlatti is an organisation that sponsors works of excellence in the written and visual art fields. Its hall is located in Delos, as opposed to Cyrene or Caer Witrin. As such, it should be noted that the Fellowship is not linked in any official way to the religious Order of Scarlatti, nor is it linked to The Virtuosi, the House championing the Arts in Cyrene.

Sponsorship comes by way of a credit reward and a unique honours ranking (see below). Artists and writers are free to submit works within their field at will. Roughly every ninety Achaean months, the submissions from the previous ninety months are judged, with multiple credit prizes going out to the winner, runners-up, and merit winners.

Works recognised by the Fellowship are those that are distinctly Achaean. They may capture moments of Achaean culture, such as creatures, locations, or skills that stand out as uniquely Achaean. Generic representations of warriors or dungeons are not likely to catch the judges' eyes. Naming a city, House, or Guild is not enough. You must convince the judges that the work may be found in Achaea and nowhere else.

Works must also be original. The Fellowship, and indeed the very Gods themselves, frown upon plagiarism, and divine punishment is often the outcome of such shameful deception.
