Education & Contests

Attending Classes has a chance to grant an Educated Mark. You can spend 3 of these to enter the Contest Hall and submit a contest piece.
Winning a contest and receiving an award will allow you to host a guild, advance within religion, and teach classes (Village rank or higher).
It is also required for the Aisling of Hy-brasyl quest (Aisling rank only).

You cannot enter a contest piece if you have been jailed or arrested more than once.
Whilst collecting Educated Marks you should consider your submission field.
The contest categories are Art, History, Literature, Lore, Philosophy, and Persona;

Contest Categories

A library of past entries can be found at Novus-Imperia and at the Library of Loures.

Once you've chosen a topic you can begin working on your piece. Your piece must be focused around Darkages and must avoid Out of Character content. To increase your chances of success I recommend speaking with the Chancellors, teachers, previous winners, or even just your friends for feedback.
The better your submission the greater chance you have of receiving a higher award; (from lowest to highest) Clave, Village, Kingdom, Aisling;

Once you feel that your work is perfected and ready to share, you could speak to a contest host one last time to make sure everything is perfect, or you could upload your piece ready to be viewed. Note that once submitted you are no longer allowed to modify your work.

Head to the Contest Hall and spend 3 Educated marks to enter. Once inside you can post a link to your submission on the board. Now the voting process begins. Past nobles will be able to review your piece and suggest an appropriate award. Voting typically lasts one week but it can be extended if there are not sufficient reviews. Once the voting period has ended the final verdict will be given by KRU. This can sometimes take a while.

Claiming your Mark

Once you have received word from the contest host and have received your tentative mark you will now be able to speak to an NPC to receive your permanent visible mark. Once you've spoken to them you will be officially recognized as a Noble, and will be awarded a small amount of gold, experience, and if you're running for office, some clout.
