Competition: [VOICE] Lorefest August 2026

The Breakdown:

How do you write like tomorrow won't arrive?:

Welcome back to LOREFEST: A Voice-sponsored series of fiction competitions, awarding First Level Crescents and bonus Clusters of Ice. Each month we'll give you a new series of prompts, usually relating to your characters, their lives, interests, what-if scenarios, or the day-to-day within The Brotherhood.

The topic for the month of August is Aerospace. Star Wars provides a wide variety of unique, fun, luxury, and utilitarian spacecraft. This month, let us celebrate these wonderful craft that provide some of the best backdrops of our favorite setting.

The Purpose:

How do you write like you need it to survive?:

LOREFEST is a series of prompts, ideas, and expositions to help flesh out characters, express creative ideas, and earn sweet, sweet credits along the way. You'll see a mix of prompts, old and new, some even taking new life from #character-questions, as we seek to dive deep, understand your characters, define their place in The Brotherhood, and most importantly, enjoy the process of writing.

The Rules:

How do you write every second you're alive?:

• Participants must submit entries in a static format format (preferably .pdf or the submission text field) unless otherwise specified
  • Any entries written in a GoogleDoc must be exported as a .pdf for submission.
  • It is highly recommended to submit in a .pdf format, unless otherwise specified.
• Relevant submissions will be graded according to the Fiction Rubric 3.0
• Your stories must be centered on one of your dossier-linked characters. Additional NPCs, including ones listed on the wiki or created/invented to tell your story in this fiction, are allowed and strongly encouraged.
• A snapshot of the primary character’s loadout isn't necessary but it would be neat if you made/used one.
