Announced Events / Re: [Player Event - Scheduling] The Druid's Delve into Darkness

« Last post by Loman on September 13, 2021, 09:05:39 PM »

In those hushed corners where half-drunk tavern-goers have speculated about the strange, flighty elf and his long-suffering ursine companion, rumours circulate that Lerin has begun his leagues-long trek through the backroads and wilderness trails of Mistledale, bound for the quiet hamlet of Peldan's Helm. There he will meet those brave enough to help him investigate the foulness lingering in the ruined depths of the Silent Chapel.

((This has been confirmed for 24th September, 9 PM BST (or thereabouts). Lerin will be hanging around Peldan's Helm on the day, generally irritating the inhabitants and keeping out of the way of any patrols of the Riders of Mistledale. Anyone who wants to come along, meet him there!

My current list of prospective dungeon-pals is:

@Shug
@Donrath
@Khuzadrepa
@Viztastic
@Ascended Mage
@kwabbernoot
@blessedcurse

And we have a maybe from:

@p122
@PixelGolem

If anyone else feels like coming along, you're more than welcome to! I hope to see you guys there and look forward to a good romp through the desecrated halls beneath the tree.

P.S. Don't think we got anyone good with traps so, uh, bring extra healing potions!))

Announced Events / [Player Event - Scheduling] The Druid's Delve into Darkness

« Last post by Loman on September 08, 2021, 09:58:14 AM »

Hushed conversations have been taking place in quiet corners of the drinking holes and other establishments around many of the settlements of the Dales of late (though, notably, not Blackfeather Bridge) about an Elven man dressed in what can only be described as 'a mess of autumn leaves' who is accompanied by a large black bear (which, thankfully, stays outside the settlements when he arrives). They say he's been asking after adventurers and the brave-hearted to travel with him out to land near Peldan's Helm in Mistledale, where the accursed 'Silent Chapel' once stood and now an Oak with blood-red leaves towers out of a great rent in the ground. It seems he wants to climb down into that dark pit, where rumours speak of horrors untold that have been awoken by the destruction wrought above them, and investigate the source of the lingering evil within.

The rumours that circulate hint that he may even have been responsible for the situation at the site and at the very least he seems to have some experience with what might await those brave (or foolhardy) enough to accompany him, for he is particularly looking for the aid of at least one proficient trap-springer and those that wield the might of the Gods in battle. Those that have seen him and heard his entreaty often note that he is quick to vanish into the wilderness when patrols of the Riders of Mistledale approach.

The Druid, Lerin of Gulthmere, as he styles himself, plans to travel out there towards the end of the month, and will be staying around the small hamlet of Peldan's Helm to keep an eye on the situation there, where he hopes he will be sought out by hardy souls to aid him in facing the depths beneath the great tree.

((This is a scheduling thread, looking for interested players and also to find the best date/time that works for people to meet up and have a poke around the dungeon. While I don't know its exact suggested level rating, I would recommend 9-10+ level characters. If you've got a character interested in coming along, please post below or join the discussion in the thread I've created on the discord under the #looking-for-group channel - Silent Chapel Delve. My current suggestion is Friday 24th September at 9PM BST, but am flexible, so let's try and work something out that works for everyone.))

Announced Events / Tavern Thursdays DM Events [Next up: 9/2 8:30 pm EST]

« Last post by Meadows on August 18, 2021, 04:39:16 PM »

*Adventurers may remember Miss Cale's invitations to sample local alcohols, brews and wines from a new area tavern each week. It seems that the saucy sorceress hasn't been seen in some time, but her idea caught on wildly with other socialites in the Dales.

No one appears to bother with invitations- you just have to know someone who knows someone who all the people they knew decided that they now know the next tavern to meet at, you know? The next most desirable destination- which seems to change from upper to lower class establishments depending on which whispers you're closest to.

Adventurers keep their ears pricked for the news each week. When crowds gather, so does opportunity.*


Gossip tells you this week’s tavern is The Lonely Mermaid

~

((Consider these impromptu DM events: because I don't know who will show up, what level, if at all, I'll whip something up based on who comes or what the crowd wants to do. I am also familiarizing myself again with the client after years so I may be rusty. I strongly encourage you to go to a dungeon together or I may lure you to one- even if you are old, high level, seasoned characters that want for no gold or xp, I promise that won't be the only thing awaiting you 

I’ll be holding this every Thursday night, at 8:30 pm EST bring your character to drink, socialize, gossip, spy or threateningly clean your fingernails in the corner with a big knife. You’re welcome to come a little late

Level range: All
Preferred character types: All))

Just wanted to post that the Event was successful and we had a wonderful turnout.  The dwarves got their aid even though they were reluctant to receive it.  Bannor learned much about the Glen Dwarves and how they differ from the mountain hold he is used to.  With a few life lessons learned Bannor now seeks to learn how to live simpler and has decided to spend more time with the Glen dwarves.  He has offered to put up a shrine honoring the Dwarven pantheon which include Moradin, Berronar and Clangeddin.  The shrine will be paid from his pocket and much of the worked executed by himself aswell.  During this time Bannor might also purchase property in Glen as a permanent home during his time in Cormanthor.

Thank you to everyone who showed up it made a big difference.  Aswell thanks to the DMs involved. The dressing and choreography of the NPC's was superb.  Lastly a big thank you to Shug, Whose performances were all very well done.  I hope to have more player events like this in the future time permitting.

Hey folks, I am going to postpone this to the following weekend (Saturday 7th August) instead of this coming weekend!

Please update your calendars accordingly!

Note that in-character the festival is considered to be proceeding as normal, this is a purely OOC change and should not be reacted to as an IC rescheduling.
