Hi All,
This will be communicated in game as well, however many have asked for clarity and we'd like anyone who hasn't been able to attend in past years to know what to expect!
Every year at our Celestial Celebration event we have a GIFT EXCHANGE!!!
In order to participate in the gift exchange you must bring a gift to logistics when you check in or purchase a gift at logistics when you check in.
If you are donating a gift, here is the criteria :
* The gift must be period appropriate
* The gift must have a value of $10 or more
* We'd prefer that you wrap it ahead of time .
* Please drop the gifts off at logistics. We will ensure they're transported to the table Saturday.
Please message myself or Seth on Facebook to submit your gifts for approval before the event. You can also email them to plot@nerokzoo.com. Your gift must be approved in order to participate in the exchange.
If you'd like to purchase a gift at the event we will have them available at check in for $15. You will find this option available in the pull down menus when you check in on the national site as well.
Said gift exchange occurs after the bardic and baking contests on Saturday late afternoon/early evening.
Also, here are the NEW RULES for the gift exchange...
To encourage solidarity amidst the revelry of the Celebration and new King's coronation, the Baron's Master of Coin has given three platinum to every adventurer who participates in the gift exchange.
When it is your turn to choose a gift, you may choose from the table OR you may spend one platinum to STEAL a gift from another person. The spent platinum will go into the Alms for the Poor & Honest Folk Coffer to be guarded by Sheriff Saroth at all times per Baron Tolmydian Starbinder.
IF you have spent all three of your platinum, you MAY spend either 1 platinum or 8 gold to steal AGAIN. However, if you use more than your three allotted steals you will go on the list of naughty thieves, to be managed by a townsperson of Sheriff Saroth's choosing.
If you are stolen from then you are given an additional opportunity to steal from another player or take from the table that turn. Steals still cost money even if you are stealing after being stolen from.
At the conclusion of the gift exchange the monies in the Alms for the Poor & Honest Folk Coffer will be divided up between everyone who participated in the gift exchange...
...EXCEPT...
...those who ended up on the list of naughty thieves!!! The thieves will receive nothing. Remember! Your first three steals DO NOT put you on the naughty list.
Just as a reminder to everyone, ALL GIFTS ARE WRAPPED and no one is aware of what they are, even those who donated them.
We'll see you at the Celestial Celebration!
