Welcome to the unofficial Calontiri Wiki![edit | edit source]

Purpose:

  • To get to know each other better - interests, skills, personas, put names to faces (help the scribes!)
  • Provide an easily updated web presence for our various branches, guilds and households
  • Preserve the history, stories and songs that explain what it is to be Calontiri

For now, this wiki is public. Anyone can edit page text. Public access will change if the privilege is abused. Please do not undo the work of others (although feel free to correct spelling mistakes and obvious formatting problems). Make comments or discussion posts if you think more drastic changes are needed.

Please do not put copyrighted material on this wiki unless you have the rights to it or permission from the one who does. As an unofficial page, we will not be needing releases (Model, Photo, Content). If you see something here that you believe is in violation of copyright, please inform the "owner", sofya at calontiri dot info

Use the Search Bar (upper right), or browse the following categories:

A note about Categories:[edit | edit source]

"Categories" are how the wiki organizes people/topics

Categories are more generic rather than more specific - so "Category:Music" rather than "Category:Vocal Music"; and "Category:Weaving" rather than "Category:Cardweaving", etc.

  • A&S categories are based on the official categories in the Kingdom Judging Criteria, somewhat simplified, eg. Dance instead of "Dance Performance, European"

About the logo:[edit | edit source]

The creature in the logo is a demobison, i.e. a bat-winged "buffalo". This creature was proposed as a possible totem-animal for Calontir back in the very early days. See Symbols of Calontir.
