Camp
The Day Camp is currently in, and so no one will be permitted on site until after 5:30 when Steve, James, Drew, or Alice give the ok. This is a very hard and strict line. You will be kicked off site before this time if you attempt to come on early.
The Crafter's Workshop Room will be unavailable this weekend as it is the office for the Day Camp and will be locked. No one is permitted inside this room for the time being.
Food Allergy Notice
While the main course and sides will be gluten and dairy free, this feast will include dishes made with sesame oil as part of the flavor profile (especially in the chicken and sides).
If you have a sesame allergy or other food restrictions, please plan to bring your own food for safety.
We won’t be able to guarantee a sesame-free environment.
Also, the dessert will include dairy, coconut, and gluten.
Thank you for understanding and helping us keep everyone safe!
The Kitchen will be serving regular meals Friday and Saturday on top of serving feast!
Photos
We will be doing player portraits Saturday evening starting at 5:45 pm up until feast start! Look for Percy across the road from the Adventurer's Guild.
Community Managers
New player Training will be held at 7:30 PM Friday night under the white tent outside the Inn. First event players are required to attend. Should you miss this scheduled training, please find a community manager to give you your own. Saturdays around 10:30am are usually best for make-ups. Your character card needs to be signed off to prove you attended. Important safety tools for the game are gone over at this time. Should you want a more in depth training about certain mechanics like combat, death, crafting, etc., you are welcome to stay longer. The mandatory part of training should only be 20 or so minutes. We ask all other players to please stay clear of new player training as multiple people makes for more distractions and will cause training to go longer.
Reminder that if you are engaging in CvC to please utilize the "Ok check-in system!" Safety tool are for anyone and everyone. Even if you think the other person is okay, it doesn't hurt to just flash the sign.
There will be a new player tour mod at 11am Saturday. This mod is optional but encouraged. There will be combat spec'd to your level, loot, and an in game tour of the proper. This is also a good way to get more comfortable with fighting/combat in general. Ask questions if you have them!
Below are helpful links for new and old players alike!
Riyena’s Reconfiguration
This ritual has been updated to clarify how transformed weapons interact with proficiencies. Previously, a weapon transformed by this ritual would retain its original properties (including which proficiencies you would use) while adopting a new form, effectively benefiting from both weapon types and their associated proficiencies simultaneously.
The updated version now specifies that while the weapon still counts as both types for for effects, it uses only the proficiencies of the new weapon form. This change ensures more consistent mechanical application while still allowing for versatile transformations.
This change will be going live for the event. Anyone benefiting from this effect in an Artifact may alter the artifact to count as either the previous or reconfigured form, but must note this on their card.
We have some previews for classes that some of you sleuths may have already discovered here:
These (rules) will NOT be live for the event, but anyone who happens to be in the middle of lessons for these classes may reference the new documents for achievements/lessons/etc. Anyone with the Legendary for any of these affected classes that have new skills added to their classes may contact a card team member to have those skills added AFTER the event. Safety
We are still asking that players be mindful of their swings during combat, players found to be fighting in an unsafe manner will be warned. We also must note that players should do their best to watch where they are going, this goes for PCs and NPCs. Don’t press so hard you push a player back blindly, don’t dodge and weave so much that it results in players inadvertently hitting you in the head or other sensitive areas, selling blows and roleplaying hits goes a long way to alleviating some of these issues.
Be sure to use that bug spray and check for ticks regularly, there has been an uptick in ticks so be vigilant.
We have also noticed an uptick in heat related injuries even more so than other years with comparable temps. In some cases this is due to players not eating and hydrating adequately. We ask that players stay cognizant of this and do their best to take care of themselves. If you are found to be repeatedly needing assistance from a Safety Team member for these reasons, you may receive a violation. Do not fight near or around where the Ren faire gate usually is. It is under construction and there are giant pits in the area!
Atmosphere
There will be a workshop on Teaching Lessons Friday around 8:15pm. Look for Nick (plays Nesterin) around the inn/market tent.
Reminders from the Atmosphere Team this month!
Please stay in character. If for some reason you need to go out of game, please do so away from other players as to not impact their immersion and gameplay. Please do not interrupt a scene for an OOG comment unless it is absolutely necessary.
Roleplay your combat and sell your blows. It makes combat more fun for everyone
Please do not openly use your phone. We get that there are times when you may need to check the time or check a rule, but please try to do these checks with your phone under a table or away from other players.
Please be mindful of your trash and OOG food containers. If they are left out, they will be thrown out/moved to the drink area of the kitchen.
