Largess

The skilled artisans of CAID produce some of the most beautiful and useful items in the known world. As We travel from land to land, it is Our wish to share the work of Our artisans with others, that they may marvel at the bounty of Our kingdom. We encourage all artisans to donate examples of their work to this purpose. Please remember to include your name and location that We may acknowledge your works properly. Some suggestions for largesse (this list is NOT all-inclusive!) are fiber arts such as trim or fabric, ceramics, beads, jewelry, metalwork, woodworking, stained or etched glass, handmade paper, natural dyes, and any other works Our artisans would be pleased to produce. Also useful are unique and unusual baskets or similar containers to hold the largesse.

Regalia

CAID is home to some of the most breathtaking banners in the known world. Alas, the kingdom banners have seen many campaigns. We wish to encourage Our people to make new banners for the kingdom, as many as possible.

Scrolls / Award cords

The kingdom is always in need of scrolls, that Our people may properly display the recognitions they have so greatly earned. To this end, We strongly encourage all to visit the Scribes page, print out blank scrolls on nice paper, and decorate them beautifully. Once finished, please deliver them to Their Royal Majesties’ Vizier.

For those scribes whose skills extend themselves to producing entire works by hand, We ask that you contact the kingdom Scribe and volunteer your services to produce at least one such work during Our reign.

Likewise, We need cords from which to hang the medallions We award and to represent certain other awards. We strongly desire to continue the traditions established by Our ancestors of having these cords from the hands of Our people. The CAID wiki award cords page gives full instructions on size and color for each type of cord.
