The Tag Challenge

So, many of you might be familiar with this from the Foundation: in essence:

• Hop on to #WanderersLibrary and type .roll 3d37.
• Check your individual rolls against the list on this page (in the collapsible down there).
• Write an article that fits the 3 tags you rolled.

+ show block

4. legacy - Used for articles describing or related to the organisation identified as "Legacy".
5. librarians - Used for articles regarding or relevant to the entities described here as "the Librarians".
6. library - Used for articles set in or relevant to the Library itself. Please note that this tag is not used for articles listed in the Library hub page (see: entry)

14. cryptobotanical - Used for articles referring to an undocumented or supernatural type of plant.
15. cryptozoological - Used for articles describing a supernatural or publically undocumented creature. Not to be confused with otherworldly, which refers to other worlds accessible through ways.
16. document - Used for articles written with the intent of serving as a public document. Used in combination with journal, letter or report. Note that articles existing as a document purely due to being part of a Book do not qualify for this tag.
17. entity - The article describes a supernatural entity that does not behave as a living organism. Superced by cryptozoological and cryptobotanical if appropriate.
18. epistolary - Used for articles structured as a collection of smaller documents from varying sources. Accompanies the document tag.
19. fable - Used for articles structured as a fairy tale, myth or other archaic story format traditionally designed to impart a lesson or moral. Used in combination with prose or verse.
20. historical - The article relates to events of known historical importance.
21. image - Denotes articles which contain implemented images.
22. journal - Used for articles structured as a journal, diary or other form of personal log. Mutually exclusive with letter.
23. letter - Used or articles structured as a written letter intended to be read by others. Mutually exclusive with journal, to be used together with document.
24. location - Used for articles involving an especially significant geographical area. Note that an area used setting does not qualify the article in question for the location tag.
25. military - The article describes a military force or the behaviour of this military force, such as a war effort.
26. mythological - Used for articles borrowing directly from an aspect of an existing myth, legend or story, e.g., the concepts of gods or golems.
27. narrative - Used for articles written primarily or entirely from the perspective of an involved individual present in the setting or content of the story. E.g., Hunting The Margrawn. Mutually exclusive with document and its sub-tags.
28. object - Used for articles involving a supernatural or significant physical object.
29. otherworldly - The story of the article describes one or more worlds outside of this universe. Note that the Library itself is not considered a world.
30. prose - Used for articles written, or primarily written, as prose. Note that "prose" is definied as "a non-metrical style similiar to ordinary written or spoken language".
31. religion - Article relates to an established religion and its practices or beliefs.
32. report - The article is structured as a formal report submitted for scientific or scholarly purposes. To be used in combination with document.
33. ritual - Used for articles describing a ritualistic and reliable process carried out by one or more sapient parties.
34. tribal - The article describes on organised social grouping of humans or human-analogues possessing a tribal structure.
35. video - The article contains an embedded video.
36. verse - Used for articles written as poetry.
37. ways - Used for articles regarding or relevant to the phenomena identified here as "the Ways".

So if I rolled a 13, a 14, and a 16, I'd be writing a document about an aristocracy made up of plants.

You can re-roll as many times as you like. I'm hoping this will create at least the seed of an idea even if the challenge itself proves to be fruitless. Feel free to share your results in the forum down there; in fact, please do.

18 (3d37=3, 11, 4)

So a story about Legacy, the Unwaking, and Elrich.

27, 9, 37.

My contribution would be a narrative about Ways and the Ravelwood.

I really like this idea. Enough to support this becoming an actual contest.
