Hateful Darkblack Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 So, I bought a Freikorps Librarian a while back, because she's awesome with the Viktorias. A few weeks ago, I bought the Von Schill box set. This means I've got an extra Librarian. So I'm givin' her away! I'll give it away to whoever posts the best Malifaux-related haiku here! The only thing you need to pay is the shipping costs if they're significant. I'll pick the haiku I like best on August 17, 2012. (Fine print: I reserve the right to pick whichever haiku I like best. I'm expecting something that 5-7-5, but I don't particularly care about a kigo or other traditional haiku strictures, so I guess technically I'm actually asking for a senryu, not a haiku, but you only care about that if you're a big structured poetry geek. I may use the poetry at some point. Original poems only. If you can't pay shipping I'll give it to someone else. If the shipping is cheap I'll probably just pay it myself. Badass skull and Rubik's cube not included.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
