Season's End Spring Equinox

[Deldaron]

The Spring Equinox has come and gone and that means it's time for another cycle of Season's End! Akhisa's Web is happy to be back with another round of 20 unique PvP deaths! Season's End will run for 90 minutes with 4 rounds each offering 5 unique deaths.

What: a death xp event offering 20 unique player deaths
When: Sunday, March 26th 2pm-3:30pm server time
Where: Fae Realm (portal will be opened from Serbule)
Requirements: ritualistically fast (come hungry) and de-robe (remove all gear - storage provided).

Instructions:

Season's End will occur in 4 rounds - the first round lasting 15 minutes and each successive round lasting 5 minutes longer than the previous. There will be five death stations around the Fae-Dasculan Ruins, each manned by a single volunteer. Participants should use the iocaine practice doses provided to lower their max health to near dead prior to approaching the volunteers. Each station will also come equipped with PvP punch.

If you plan to participate in the event, it is highly recommended that you begin a ritual fast 1 hour (+ your gourmand level divided by 2 minutes) prior to the event so you are not fighting natural health regen. Upon arrival to the Fae Realm, there will be dispensers with iocaine practice doses - should the dispensers run out, you can hop into Winter Nexus through the portal on the East side of town and purchase some ink from Fazzi. We also ask that upon arrival you remove all gear you have equipped; there will be a storage crate at the respawn point when the event begins and additional crates deployed just behind Raina.

Additionally, we ask that all participants join the custom channel SeasonsEnd (type /join SeasonsEnd) - in an attempt to keep the airways clear for the rest of the community we will be giving instruction through this channel. Deldaron will be acting MC of this event and will be available to answer any questions.

Assistance Requested:
In an attempt to simplify planning we've reduced the number of volunteers needed to run a cycle of Season's End. The downside of this is that the capacity at which we can dish out death xp is reduced. We're combating this by changing the timing structure and adding a fifth death station, but there's still a possibility of not everyone being able to complete the full event. To this end we're asking that, if you have the deaths you need from a round and you can offer a death that is actively being offered, please feel free to jump in and dish out some death! If the death requires material components send Deldaron a message during the event and he can suit you up.

Please be sure you're confident you know what you're doing before jumping in to help and have your chat open just in case.

If you're not comfortable dishing out death, but want to help out - we're always looking for gravediggers. If you have the deaths you need, but don't want to act as a death dealer just run around and mourn/bury tombstones to help make targeting easier for our volunteers!


For those who love lore - Season's End Backstory:
On a cold Winter day after an evening of local poetry and bourbon, Deldaron was loudly complaining about the weather and whining about how he wished Spring would come sooner. The mischievous Malechna heard his friend’s woes and said "why don't you make it come sooner?". Deldaron, already quite simple and at this point dangerously intoxicated scoffed, "hah, how would one 'make spring come sooner'". Malechna responded, wryly, "Don't you know? If you kill enough winter court fairies Winter will lose its hold over the seasons and Spring will have to come". Within seconds, Deldaron grabbed his trusty club and rushed out the door of Fainor's Inn to the nearest mushroom circle - headed for the Fae Realm. He spent the next few days mercilessly bludgeoning any winter court he could find, returning to town only to unload gear and trophies. On the third day of his conquest, while he was depositing a rather large sum of Fae skulls into storage, Bendith nervously asked Deldaron why he was so bent on killing winter fae. Upon hearing his explanation, Bendith burst into laughter and explained that Malechna was clearly pulling one over on Deldaron.

Furious, Deldaron summoned Malechna to the Fae Realm and challenged him to a duel. The two battled, but neither could gain the advantage. Eventually they both collapsed from exhaustion just before bursting into laughter at how ridiculous the situation had become. They returned to town to enjoy drink and food and decided they would do this again. Now, at each Equinox and Solstice, they gather for punch, merriment, and combat in the lands of the Fae to celebrate Season's End.

Flow and deaths offered

The event will flow in four rounds. Round 1 will be 15 minutes and each successive round will be 5 minutes longer. During each round each death station will offer a single unique pvp death. Some deaths are AoE deaths so if you have already received the death from one stations volunteer it is best to keep your distance when collecting the second volunteer's death.
