Sorry, I’m new at this, is there a reference for “The Arts, as defined in this game”?
Welcome, Zakalwe! Hope you have fun.
SCAdian or Elendil’s Heir or some other player who’s been at this longer than I will have to answer that question, though I can tell you it includes both the creative arts (painting, sculpture, etc.) and the performing arts (musicians, actors, dancers, etc.)
While the answer to #1 could be considered “yes”, the question has such a large range that I’ll have to ask you to narrow it.
Take a DQ for #2 though.
It means the person is an artist, actor, writer, poet, dancer, musician… of that ilk
Yeah, I was afraid of that on #1. Too late after I hit submit though…
