CONTEST TIME!!!

Welp, here it is! Our very first contest based on the Elders of the RuneStone comic series. What follows is a series of trivia questions about various aspects of the series, its characters, its history, and random miscellanea. All answers can be found by searching the blogs on this site from the first one last summer up to now, as well as searching the art found in the Photos section of the Elders of the RuneStone group page on Facebook.com. The first person to email ALL the correct answers to runestonecomic@gmail.com (this may change if our questions turn out to stump you all!) will receive an original sketch of the RuneStone character of their choice by series artist Robert Atkins!
