Summary
Adol is on a new adventure in Celceta but Feena and Reah's duties to watch over Esteria have not finished. They know that magic is not yet gone from the world - Adol is discovering both monsters and magic in other continents! Meanwhile, the citizens of Ys are attempting to communicate with Roos in the hope of establishing the true nature of the monsters and maybe bringing in an era of peace. The Goddesses aid them by lending them a mystic typewriter. Everything is going to plan, except that nobody has noticed Keith acting strangely, reverting back to monstrous behaviour, listening to dark whispering in his heart from a fallen priest who is not gone, his soul is only resting in his family's statue.

Posting Update
Aug. 25th, 2018 12:52 pmspellbound_316I apologize for my lack of communication. I had just over a week long unexpected absence from the internet.
At the last check-in, it sounded like only one group was ready to post. So, going forward, this is what I want to happen:
- Contact your author/artist and agree on a date when you will both be done and ready to post.
- Email me at fantasyfandom.bb@gmail.com with this agreed on date. I you could send me one email from both of you, that would make my life easier. Whoever sends the email, please CC the other person so I know you are both on the same page.
- Based on the dates you send me, I'll put together a posting schedule. This will probably end up having one group post each week to give other groups more time.
I know this is late notice, and that's my fault, but if you could get me your answers by Wednesday or Thursday I would appreciate it. Then posting could start the first week of September.
Thanks so much for all your patience! I look forward to seeing what you created.

Art Pinch Hits
Jul. 7th, 2018 07:49 pmspellbound_316We have two pinch hits that need artists. If you are willing to take one of these, please comment or DM me with your email and which story you would like. Email me at fantasyfandom.bb@gmail.com or DM with any questions or concerns.
Pinch Hit 1
Working Title: "The Stone Angel"
Fandom: The Doomspell Trilogy
Rating: T/M
Warnings and Major Tags: Past Child Abuse/Implied Child Abuse, Femslash, Flirting, Enemies to Friends to Lovers, Underage Kissing, ???? They're Like Twelve IDK Man
Current Word Count: 1,000
Estimated Final Word Count: 5-7000
Types of Relationships: F/F
Comprehensive Summary:
After the events of Scent of Magic, Heiki and Rachel negotiate their newly complicated relationship and awakening interests in romance - while Heiki tries to figure out who she is in the wake of escaping from Calen's grip. Recovery fic, happy ending but probably kind of bittersweet? No dead lesbians.
Pinch Hit 2
Working Title: Dance with the Devil
Fandom: SPN/Lucifer/Constantine
Rating: Mature
Warnings and Major Tags: Implied torture, there is Wincest, au, ignores s4 and up of SPN, not canon compliant for Lucifer
Current Word Count: 3,266
Estimated Final Word Count: 7k it shouldn't go above 10k
Types of Relationships: M/M, M/M/M, Wincest, Lucifer/Sam, Dean/Sam, John Constantine/Lucifer, Lucifer/Sam/Dean
Comprehensive Summary:
The Winchester brothers will do anything for one another a fact Bobby knows all too well and he knows that Sam is desperate to save Dean from hell and instead of letting Sam run off on his own he gives away to contact John Constantine. Constantine knows that only Lucifer could break a demon devil a road trip to LA has Sam learning the truth as the Boy King he is destined to be Lucifer's consort and all Sam has to do is say yes and Dean is free. Sam says yes and Dean is no happy. Lucifer on the other hand why have one Winchester when he can have both and offers them a deal that they can't say no to.

Please include your draft as an attachment in either .jpg or .png format. If you can't get your art into one of these formats, let me know. Your rough draft should at least be a gesture sketch or its equivalent. I mostly just want to see that you've started and have a general idea or direction.
Please also include the following information:
Feel free to also include any questions, comments, or concerns. If for some reason your author hasn't responded to you, let me know.

Summaries and Rough Draft Expectations
May. 30th, 2018 03:11 amspellbound_316With the due date for rough drafts and summaries rapidly approaching, here's a reminder for what I'm expecting to see.
First off, the rough drafts should be about 1/3 of your total estimated length with an outline detailing the rest, including your ending. For those of you without a calculator, 1/3 of 5000 is just over 1650 words. This rough draft doesn't have to be cohesive. It could be parts of several different scenes; it's just making sure you've made some progress and don't have a blank document.
The claim summaries are what are going to take a little more work. I'm requiring the following information in order to qualify your work to be claimed by an artist:
Some things to keep in mind:
Even if you aren't able to meet one or both of these, you can still participate in the big bang, you just won't have your work put up to be claimed by an artist.
Good Luck!

The claim summaries are what are going to take a little more work. I'm requiring the following information in order to qualify your work to be claimed by an artist:
- Working Title
- Fandom
- Rating
- Warnings and Major Tags
- Current Word Count
- Estimated Final Word Count
- Types of Relationships (Gen, F/M, F/F, M/M, Other)
- Comprehensive Summary
Some things to keep in mind:
- Be honest
- Remember this summary is for the artists, not the readers. Even if the fact that your main character is secretly a shape-shifter is a major plot point, don't keep that a secret from the artist.
Even if you aren't able to meet one or both of these, you can still participate in the big bang, you just won't have your work put up to be claimed by an artist.
Good Luck!
