What is Elves Without Borders?
Elves Without Borders is an open event with the purpose of sharing and celebrating fanworks that involve fandom crossovers between elf characters.
Is this a contest with a prize?
Elves Without Borders is an open and free event that is low-stress and does not have any contest or competition aspects. There is no winner and no prize, but every entry that tags #Elves Without Borders and @ElvesWithoutBorders and follows the guidelines will be reblogged on the Elves Without Borders Tumblr account to showcase to anyone following the event!
Is there a word count limit on fanfic?
There is no word limit on written submissions. It can be as long or short as you want!
How many times can we enter?
You can make as many fanworks for the event as you want!
Can I submit an older piece that I made previously?
As long as it followers the guidelines, yes! Make sure to tag us so we can see it!
You can definitely include your elven OCs! However, we do ask that the OC is from the universe of an already-existing fandom or series, such as a DnD OC, a Baldurâs Gate OC, a Lord of the Rings OC, etc. Please be sure your submission still follows the Guidelines and the fandom crossover theme of the event.
Are half-elf characters allowed?
What about characters that look like an elf but arenât technically âelvesâ?
Absolutely! As long as the character has the appearance of an elf or is clearly based on the traditional lore of an âelfâ, you can include them! For example, characters such as Zelda, Link, Lotor, and Gelflings are not canonically âelvesâ but their appearances are inspired by elves.
Can we make other crafts like a knitting or weaving pattern?
Please do! Any artform counts as long as it follows the guidelines as an elven crossover
This is a great idea! Why not make it a zine?
If Elves Without Borders gets enough participation and submissions, a zine could be considered for the future! For now, we want everyone to have to be able to join and have fun with the theme.
Will this be a Big Bang or Bingo or other event?
If we have enough participation and a zine is out of the picture, a Big Bang or Bingo could be possible for next year.
