Might & Magic 10: Artists & Writers Wanted!
Hey there fellow die hard M&M fans. On your journeys across the Internet, you may have heard of a fan project being developed called Might & Magic 10. But was this project rumor or real?
The Might & Magic 10 project is quite real, and our developers have made tremendous progress as of recently. One of the main reasons why it's taken so long is that we've completely scrapped the original game ideas. About 3 or 4 years ago, MM10 was titled "The Anduran Saga", and was supposed to take place on a hidden chain of Islands Southwest of Enroth called Glorennes. One version of the storyline reached over 14 pages long, and everything from maps and dungeons, to quests and items were being developed through the Horizon engine, which powered Might and Magic games 6 through 8.
Over time, we decided to take them game into the context of it's predecessor, Might & Magic 9 (The Writ of Fate), and all of the previous years of work we had done became obsolete. Thus, almost an entire game was made only to fade away into nothingness. We also had the game undergo a name change from "The Anduran Saga" to "Children of the Void."
This catastrophe will not happen again, because we have made some incredible breakthroughs on the original storyline planned for Might & Magic 10. Tim Lang has disclosed his original plans to us, and we have taken the game to the world of Axeoth, where (again) the series left off in Might & Magic IX (The Writ of Fate), as well as Heroes of Might & Magic IV (Also the Gathering Storm and Winds of War), and even Legends of Might & Magic, which was originally staged to take place on Axeoth's Southern continent of Lodwar. We are including the whole world of Axeoth in Might & Magic 10: Children of the Void.
We have many developmental processes going on with the game, and it will not become like Might & Magic Tribute turned out (much respect due to Ribannah for her noble endeavors.) On the Internet, everything from a regularly updated Facebook page to a brand new website is being developed, and behind the scenes there is much work being done on the game itself, including a brand new game engine in the works.
As we're growing and expanding, we need the help of our most important contributors - you, the fans of Might & Magic. Since this is a fan based operation, we are always looking towards our fans for assistance and feedback.

We will release some official documents, art and other items when we feel they are good enough quality to be deemed "acceptable". Sorry for the wait but we want things perfect.
I enjoy attention to detail, but I also like watching things as they take shape, being handed just a finished product denies me the gravity of the effort and magnitude of work that was put into its production.
As for storylines and bios, we could run a few competitions, there are some decent writers on the board, nothing brings people out of their shells like a friendly contest. That is of course if you guys still require them, or if you want to improve on current ones.

Thank you! I was recently thinking about looking for some new writers on the MM community forums. I will post a thread very soon. We only have a couple lore masters on our writing staff and we are lacking in that department.
