Amazingly, we did not end up with a "War Against Dragons" as most everyone helped the dragons! There were a few fights, but it was expected. So we have included the results of the event in the "Event Rewards" section. RIP leprechauns.
WE GET OUR HOT SPRINGS—maybe next month. The dragons are willing to open access to their mystical hot springs but they have a lot of cleanup and sorting to do after getting all their goods and eggs back. A relationship between the dragon community and the town can now be forged!
As for the upcoming event, I went a little overboard writing up the notes and essentially wrote up the narrative setup for it. Feel free to skip to get to the actual event details, but it does provide context for what will happen.
TLDR; a spooky Halloween Carnival is literally sprouting up outside of town and apparently what they have inside are things that would aid in dealing with the Story Eater. Also a lot of Poe references.
We do have named NPCs present, but instead of doing any IC threading there is opportunity for players to submit "IC" questions in the mod notes that we can shoot back and forth in a loose OOC manner.
THE EVENT WILL DOUBLE AS OUR TEST DRIVE MEME which means it's another Flower Festival situation where those who are test driving will be active participants on the event log. As with last time, TDM participants can only thread on the log, but they can include non-event items in their toplevels.
also -- an apology because i posted a slightly older draft of the notes that did not have the IC: OOC date change. so it's correct in here on the plurk but was not correct in the notes. it's fixed now! (if there are any other errors or discrepencies let me know)
