=Event Details=

Players who attend the Player Workshop will be able to participate in a series of workshops that are meant to help players get a better understanding of our game, along with getting to participate in a background plot option that will influence the current timeline! Further details will be announced as they come available, including what workshops will be running and the story that will be available.

SPECIAL GAME MECHANICS APPLIED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE:
Traveling to or from Clan Stormjarl: For both this event and moving forward, travel to or from Clan Stormjarl carries the risk of seeing sea combat which can cause PCs to be injured, supplies to be lost, and units to be forced into combat.
Current Danger Level: Danger is UNKNOWN.

To Clarify (Click for more):

All PCs traveling to Stormjarl territory will be subject to survival-style rolls to see if they encounter combat/hardship on their way in. All PCs interacting with Stormjarl territory via attendance at events in person, or using Downtime Actions to interact with Stormjarl territory, will be tracked. All players that have a PC that is tracked in Stormjarl territory that signup for a future event outside of Stormjarl territory will also be subject to survival-style rolls to see if they encounter combat/hardship on their way out, This special “territory travel mechanic” will remain in effect until in-game narrative changes warrant it’s removal; all events that are influenced by this dangerous travel mechanic will be noted in future event mechanics

= EVENT SPECIAL MECHANICS =

1) Workshop Format:
This event will feature hourly blocks of time focusing on different topics. Players will also have open time as an alternative. The exact topics are still being decided on for the final itinerary for the workshop.

2) Catering Stipend:
The LARP is offering a small payment of silver to individuals who bring dishes to share. The amount and quality of food brought to share will be factored into the payment. The pay will between 1 to 3 silver pieces per dish with a maximum of 10 silver per individual caterer, and the silver will be added to a PC of your choosing. Please keep in mind, we cannot guarantee outlets will be available for things like Crock-Pots or Nescos.

3) PC “Attendance” Bonus:
Players attending the workshop and who have purchased a Standard or Premium membership will get to “check-in” a PC of their choosing that will benefit from all their normal flips and rolls at check-in and be able to earn Org XP.

4) Downtime Scenario:
Attending players can choose PCs (with Standard or Premium memberships) or NPCs (with Basic or above memberships) to participate in the event scenario at this event. More info is noted in the Pre-Reg form and more details will be explained at the workshop.

5) Decorum & Out-Of-Game Clarifications:

Please note that there is no “in-game” area for this event. This is a completely out-of-game workshop and the “decorum” rules do not apply to the game area.

There is no cost/charge/entry fee required to participate in this event and all are welcome to participate regardless of their membership status or not. However, certain perks require additional membership.

You MUST do BOTH (pre-register AND select/pay for your chosen membership services) before you are considered fully pre-registered for an event!
