2008-04-23 ~ Competition enters final week
Just a heads up for everyone who's been meaning to enter but hasn't so far. We've entered the final week for submissions now. A week from today, on April 30th at midnight (GMT+1) the competition will close. So any entries that arrive after that time won't be allowed to enter. Be sure to send your stories in before that time!
Good luck!
2008-04-08 ~ Competition update
Well, as is always the case, some things have come up that we hadn't considered up front. I'd just like that for a moment. Once an entry has been submitted, it's final. That means that if after a week or so, you suddenly think of an even better story to enter into the category you already entered in, you'll be too late since you can not change it.
So, if you decide to send in your entry soon, please think carefully if it's all ready to enter and if you're absolutely positive that's the story you want to enter with as you can;t change your mind lateron.
And a small reminder, please make sure to read through the rules -> http://competition.chorrol.com/rules.html especially the submission guidelines before sending in a story to save yourself some extra work.
Thanks for reading this,

2008-04-03 ~ Elder Scrolls Community Competition
Not too long ago, one of the moderators here at Chorrol came up with a great idea. We've been spending many years now enjoying some great stories from community members, yet we've never had a competition for them. At least not a big one.So we got together with a number of other fan sites, and Bethesda, and have been able to put things together for a competition.
Basic facts;
Any completed story written by yourself can be entered.
Three categories for the stories; Short stories, medium sized stories and long stories.
Each category will have a single winner, with three great prizes to win;
Two copies of Oblivion signed by Todd Howard, and one map of the Shivering Isles, signed by the developers of the game.
You can enter submissions starting today, and ending April 30th.
We've also created a special website containing all the facts, all the rules and much more. Find it here;
Competition
We've also created a forum thread which you can use for any questions, comments and discussions. You can find that here;
Thread
It also contains the complete set of rules there.
So, lastly to everyone entering, good luck! And may the best writer win.
on behalf of all the fan sites involved (Planet Elder Scrolls, The Imperial Library, TES Nexus, UESP, Tamriel Rebuilt, Elder Scrolls.net, Bethesda and of course Chorrol,

2008-03-15 ~ Story update part 3
Today we've made the third of our major story updates. Today's updates include several stories of Jack Cloudy; Oasis 1 & 2, Redemption, Corrupted Heart and Agent.
And the entire "Accounts of Rayden" by Redsrock.
And even now, there's more to come!
2008-03-10 ~ Story update part 2
Well, this is the second of our major fan fiction update. Today I've added the remaining chapters of Trey in Mournhold. So now both the stories of Trey are complete on the site.
I've also added an entirely new story. The King and I. Written by Rumpleteasza who's a member of the regular Bethesda forums. This is a story I first discovered quite a while ago, and it's a real gem. It has everything, mad gods, insane wizards, assassins, spies, intrigue, and the best thing is it features characters from both Morrowind and the game before it; Daggerfall. A must read for all ES fan fiction lovers IMO :-)
2008-03-09 ~ Story updates
Today I've made the first in what will be a number of updates to the fan fiction section. Today's additions are the 5th and 6th chapters of Minque's Serene of Cyrodiil, and the completed chapters of The Adventures of Arthago, a very exciting tale by Agent Griff.
And a short story, by an author not before seen here, Mote.
More to come in the coming while, so stay tuned! ;-)
2007-12-24 - Happy Holidays!
