Date: Sat. Nov. 5
Time: 9:00 p.m. EST (meet up time)
Location: Umbra bank (Malas). We will issue costumes and supplies, organize escorts.
As the post title says, this will be a shard-wide event for Halloween (for those that aren't familiar with it, this is a U.S. holiday tradition, where kids dress up in costumes, and go around their neighborhoods carrying bags, and yelling "trick or treat" at the doors, and people come out and give them candy and stuff. It is primarily a kids' holiday, but there are usually lots of costume parties for grownups that take place. There is usually a spooky theme to the costumes and decorating.)
PRIMARY GOAL: To get as many guilds & individuals involved as possible. Emphasis on introducing new players to the shard, and hopefully getting some goodies for them, but this is meant for EVERYONE to enjoy, and the more that join the group, the better!
Main event:
A pre-defined trick-or-treat route, with stops at the guild or private houses of those who have notified me that they want to participate. The houses should have some holiday themed decor, and one person there during the event to hand out "treats" (I prefer for anyone else in the guild willing to participate to join the main group from the start. The person that mans the house, will join when they are done passing out their treats).
Ideally I would like all of NEW, NEW., and DARK that are available to be the core trick or treaters group, as well as anyone not helping with the "route" as escorts, i.e. guards or as Wulf would say, a meat shield
. Everyone who is trick or treating will dress up in similar disguises, with orc, tribal masks, lots of incognito scrolls for whomever has enough mana to cast them to make things interesting, that sort of thing. Maybe have everyone tame a kitty to drag along as well. Castor and I have been putting together a bunch of costume kits, that include a set of horned or barbed leather armor, to hand out at the start. New players are not expected to provide or bring anything, only to show up.
There will be a prize awarded to the guild/individual with the best decorated house on the route, as well as the house that gives the best treats. The trick or treaters will vote to decide the winners for these.
Other activities may be added as time permits.
Update - 11/03: Thief co-event is being dropped, due to general lack of interest in it among the thief community.
Update - 11/04 meet-up place changed to Umbra because SOME people haven't upgraded.
