Spring Fling Merchant's Faire Stall Reservations
Three Stalls Available for Reservation
Time Blocks to Reserve a Stall: 1 bell for 100 lions
Multiple Blocks Can Be Reserved, Maximum 8 Blocks
You or an Associate Will be Expected to be at the Stall for the Length of the Reservation
Merchant's License Required for Reservation
No Illegal Goods, Cormyrian Law Will Be Enforced
There will be a "free" merchant area, but space is very limited and you will need your own setup.
The coin to reserve a stall will go towards helping the Miners & Quarrymen support their families.
Time Slots Available:
*the post lists the times available ((see below in the OOC section))*
If interested please contact Minister Mynian Copperhand at the Great Hall of Valkur's Roar. //OOC easier to list it this way, I'll update the sheet as time goes along, green means the slot is available - Reservation time blocks will be at 100gp per hour, you can reserve up to 8 blocks, payment won't be needed until the day of the event - You or a partner need to be at the stall for the duration that you reserve it for, so be mindful of that if you're also planning to take part in an event or want to watch an event. - After the Finale you can stay as long as you like. The stalls will remain for the rest of the day, though E/DM support may not be available after the event is done. - If you want to reserve but you're not 100% sure if you can make it that day, I can pencil you in for the hours you want. However, if someone else comes along that wants that same hour and will definitely make it then the reservation will go to them. |

Children have been selected to scamper about the various towns and cities of Cormyr announcing an upcoming contest of performance and poetics.
"Come gather you Poets, who prophesize with your pen!"
"And perform for Lady Gorgotha, the savior dragon"
"be praised for your song, poetry, or a dance!"
"There surely wont be another chance!"
"Pogo the Blue Bard, seeks the best of the best!"
"to entertain a magnificent dragon no less!"
"The Spring Fling by the Riverside, celebrations galore!"
"Come hear the tragic story, and Restore Valkurs Roar!"
If any of the children are questioned further, they look wide eyed, and scamper off, repeating their verses.
//OOC Any and All are invited, all classes/levels may participate. Each performer can choose one genre of performance (story/poetry/song/dance) but each person has one shot (5 min tops) Think "Cormyrs Got Talent".
Please contact Pogo via DM/PM through forums via Shug.
Space is limited, so it will be first come scenario.
Stage Performances/Poetry/Dance/Pogo's Game: 1400 - 1600 (0500-0700 AEST / 1200-1400 PST / 2000-2200 GMT)

Rules in Full: The City of Valkur’s Roar will provide the set-up for the joust, including lists, bleachers, and lances. ((Lances provided by VR will have the “Knockdown” property, so a PC can participate in the joust, even if the PC does not have the “Knockdown” feat.))
Jousters must provide their own horses.
Entry fee is 100 gold. (All proceeds go to Valkur's Roar Miners and Quarrymen)
The winning jouster will (1) be acclaimed throughout the Western Reaches as the champion of the joust at the Spring Fling & Faire in Honour of Lady Gorgotha, (2) have the right to name the Queen of Love and Beauty for the Spring Fling & Faire in Honour of Lady Gorgotha, and (3) receive a “Lady Gorgotha” plush toy.
Jousters will compete on horses. In every round, the first jouster to un-horse ((knock down)) their opponent *twice* wins.
If a jouster is not un-horsed in a ride, jousters will circle back to the start of the lists and ride again. ((Only the first KD attempt in each ride counts. The game mechanics might give a jouster a second KD attempt before the jousters can break off, but that’s OOC, and the second attack won’t count.))
This is a joust. It’s a test of rider, horse, and mounted combat skills. It’s not a test of magic-using ability, equipment, singing, etc. ((This means no casting of any offensive, defensive, attribute-enhancing, or other spell, and no using any potion, scroll, wand, or other item that confers a spell, either before or during any joust. It also means no use of any ability that needs to be activated, including bard song. It also means no magic rings, amulets, cloaks, gloves, belts, boots, shields, armour, or helms. Mundane rings, amulets, cloaks, gloves, belts, boots, shield, armour, or helms are permitted. Helms that provide +1 concentration are permitted. Mundane equipment, including shields and armour, will be available for purchase at the joust.))
This is a joust. Unchivalrous behaviour is not allowed. ((No curse song. No taunt.))
“Mystery knights” are not permitted. Jousters must compete as themselves.
Healing after each round is permitted.
Seeding and progression will be based in part on the number of entrants.
Decisions by the joust committee about rules, seedings, and all other matters (including a decision to disqualify any jouster who violates the rules) are final and unappealable.

*a parchment is put over the Spring Fling notices* The City of Vaulkur's Roar
Would like to Thank those who
Attended the Spring Fling
And helped us Celebrate the Hero
Lady Gorgotha
Without you who raised your voices
In Cheer and merriment in her honor
Who opened their hearts and good natures
the Celebration could not have been done
Your Generosity has helped us raise
Enough funds to help the miners and quarrymen
Support their families
For More than a Full Season
Thank You Again! |
