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 [[Divine_Order|Order]] of [[Scarlatti]] or [[Ty Beirdd]], the [[Houses|House]] of Bards. | The '''Fellowship of Scarlatti''' is an organisation that sponsors works of excellence in the written and visual art fields.

Sponsorship comes by way of a [[credits|credit]] reward and a unique [[honours]] ranking (see below). 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 merit winners. | Sponsorship comes by way of a [[credits|credit]] reward and a unique [[honours]] ranking (see below).

Works recognised by the Fellowship are those that are distinctly Achaean. They may capture moments of Achaean culture, such as [[:category:Creatures|creatures]], [[:category:areas|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 recognised by the Fellowship are those that are distinctly Achaean.

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. | Works must also be original.
