Greengrass Festival and Tourney

Come celebrate the arrival of Spring with a grand Spectacle and enjoy the festivities!

Be entertained by contests of swordsmanship, archery, duels of spellcasters and the grand melee, and for the bold of heart, dare to enter the contests themselves and win prizes and riches beyond imagination!

Hear the best works of song and daring, feast upon the best food and drink that the isles can offer!

Jesters, Acrobats, puppeteers and buffoons to entertain children of all ages!

Visit our merchant's stalls, and marvel at the craftsmanship of all goods sold at the festival's Auction!

Start of 10 am PST still only 1 pm EST is not late american time

I might add we have a fully built tourney ground on Alaron...not sure where you are referring to on Gwynneth....

The area is Regent's Field, Alaron Isle, and it has tents, stands, combat rings etc.

The court wizard of Alaron sends his regrets he will be unable to attend ((long overdue family vacation weekend!)), though if he is able, he will make an appearance late in the day.

I have editted the notice to reflect the correct IC location.

To get there, walk south from the western gate of Caer Callidyrr (the only gate you can leave from in the city).

Thanks, Castano...also explains why I couldn't find the place.

you might need to clear out a spawn for the event... not sure where they hang on the road.

hopefully all players will consider a visit to the isles for the festival, I would love a chance to rp with ppl I usually don't get to.
Come if it would be an ic kind of thing for your toon to be at sea for weeks to come to a festival, perhaps you are a merchant? a crafter seeking materials only available in the isles? it is your characters home? you are part of a shady organization that has ties there? you have heard of prizes in tournaments that you think you have the skills for? or maybe you just like to get flat assed drunk at a festival once a year?

Do you MS folks want some kind of ooc "registration" of players/pcs planning to attend to help you plan the day and what events/categories/brackets you might need to put together?

My sole purpose to come is obviously to horribly murdar Maxcell, but I'm planning to drop by and see if I can pick up a prize in the bard (strings and singing) event

as for the murdaring, it is expected. I don't want to speak for the dms who will be on, but I think a pm to CD might help them out, she can let the others know in DM forum. Top bard prize, Golden Ukulele of Wooing.

I and AK will be using server tells to announce locations and events.

No events will be concurrent to help with the flow for example.

All will be in one location.

MS dms are allowed to log in and high-jack parties up to six for side adventures.

I am hoping all MS dms will do a turn this Sunday as well.
