Are you excited yet? I know I'm excited!!! I can't wait to see everyone running around like crazy, and having a great time.
We -really- appreciate your patience with the delay on the festival verb. Sometimes things happen, and we work to correct them as quickly as possible. Don't let that lack of information get you down! No losing steam before we even begin!
The other GMs and I have a lot of great surprises in store for all of you this year, but I suppose I can let a few things slip. And I do recall promising to let you know what I might be providing that would possibly effect certain professions, races, etc... So, in the spirit of keeping communication open between us, I'll list some of the special services that will be available this year. Please note: This is not everything, and there will be limited slots with random selection methods (raffle, spinners).
- Bard Sonics.
- Rotating flares for weapons 8x and below.
- Temporary banshee flares for shields 7x and below.
- Temporary crit padding (with stipulations)
- Temporary crit weighting (with stipulations)
- Cobbling things. (It's a surprise)
- Shield, armor, and armor accessory spikes.
- Prayerbead and religious jewelry unlocking.
- Metallic gown unlocking. (Yes, new scripts!)
- Lockmastery clasps and keyblanks.
Is this enough? ;)
But wait, there's more!
-- 2nd Annual Masquerade Ball. Your chance to dress up, dance, and win a great prize.
-- Costume contest! New this year! For those of you who would rather not wear a coat, or a ballgown. Show off your costume, and possibly win a prize for your efforts!
-- Storytelling competition. Bring us your spooky stories, songs, and poetry! Prizes for first, second, and third place!
Ask around. The prizes are well worth the effort!
Don't forget our yearly quest, and the many smaller contests, games, and role playing opportunities throughout the event!! And shopping. Who doesn't love shopping? ;)
I hope this glimpse into what's in store has caught your attention! Buy your ticket (or tickets) and come join the fun. Can't wait to see you there!
