Masquerade of the Damned
At Darkhold




Prizes for Best Costume
Open Stage • Murder Mystery • Courtyard Open Market

1st Place Prizes: 65% of the Pot
And a Date with the Dreadlord or a Mystery Item

2nd Place Prizes: 25% of the Pot

3rd Place Prizes: 10% of the Pot



On the first of Uktar, all the most vile miscreants of the Coast will assemble at Darkhold for an unholy masquerade.

Join us for an open market, accompanied by song and dance, while a secret murderer runs loose through the keep -- leaving a trail of bodies and only a handful of clues. It will be up to the guests to solve this mystery before it's too late, lest the murderer direct his sights on them as well.

At the 2nd Candlemark, guests will be invited to attend an open stage, where the most macabre of tales and jokes shall be shared -- accompanied only by hideous laughter.

And at the 3rd Candlemark of the ball, a costume contest will be held -- with three judges selected from the audience at random. Which ghastly costume will inspire the most delight? Come and find out...




All guests will be inspected at the Main Gate. No weapons, poisons, or explosives will be allowed inside. Any confiscated weaponry or items will be returned to you when you leave.

If you are interested in hosting a stall at the open market, contact Dreadlord Victoria Thornhart immediately. Include which organization you will be representing and what wares you intend to sell.

The Murder Mystery is just for fun and games -- in other words, pretend. Dreadlord Thornhart will tolerate no violence inside Darkhold or attempted murder. The safety of all guests will be ensured on this evening.

The entry fee for the costume contest will be 1,000 coins. The three judges will be paid 5,000 coins each for their services.

If you happen to be a banned person or part of a banned group, but you are interested in attending, you can contact Dreadlord Victoria Thornhart to be escorted onto the premises. Refer to Darkhold's laws, public banishment list, or agents if you have any questions.
((OOC information: Nov. 1, 4:00 pm EST/8 pm GMT. We hope to see you there!))

Fliers have been posted up in several towns on the Coast. The bottom of the parchment bears a small symbol of Chauntea, suggesting the nature of the market's organizers, as well as a few points of contact: Rowan Quinn or Maelis Warren.

Farmer’s Market

Residents and visitors of the Coast are invited to attend a Farmer’s Market, hosted in Greenest on the 18th day of Nightal. Please contact the organizers if you wish to reserve a stall to sell your wares. Find fresh produce, baked goods, cooked delights, crafted wares and more in the Greenest market square!

Now hiring extra hands for help with set-up, live musical performances, clean-up and more.


(( OOC: Farmer's Market on Friday, December 18th starting at 21:00 GMT at Greenest. Anyone can set up a stall, browse wares, or just socialize at their own whim! We'll have a few stalls available to rent as well for those who don't have them. Feel free to message me with any questions, if you want to reserve/bring a stall, or if your character is interested in making a bit of extra gold by helping out with set-up or live entertainment. ))

In Soubar, near the Black Abbey an announcement is made by a guttural and probably undead voice.

The dark mass is announced, for the adoration and worship, of Lord Bane, is to happen in one tenday.

A few parchments are spread across the town and the tradeway, announcing the dark ritual to take place in the Black Abbey.
Faithful of the dark gods...

Come to learn of Bane , the Black Abbey doors are open.

For those that wish to learn.

In only a tenday.

On the 3rd day of Tarshakh of the Year of The Prince, 1357 Dalereckoning

Fliers are posted in several locations throughout the Sword Coast, namely the city of Baldur's Gate itself. The parchment is stamped with both a symbol of Chauntea, as well as that of the Ironwood Lodge.

Citizens of the Sword Coast,

It is our pleasure to invite you all once more to join in the celebration of Springtime. This year's Greengrass festival will be held in the Northern Farmlands just outside of Baldur’s Gate. Those with coin to spare may bring flowers to give to those in need, as is tradition. Those flowers will either be worn or scattered into the fields, a gesture for the gods and spirits to usher in the summer and bless the lands for the harvest.

Beyond the typical festivities, and though the storms this year have been ferocious, we will be serving food and drink for all involved, as well as opening stalls to locals who wish to sell items. Near the end of the festival there will be time for a small blessing of the fields. Any who wish to plant seeds during this time may request seeds from the Chauntean clergy.

Those seeking to participate in festival preparation or execution, whether to provide supplies, relief to locals hit by recent calamities, entertainment, or other aid, may leave word for Rowan Quinn or Maelis Warren at the Temple of Chauntea.

(( Greengrass Festival Saturday, May 1st, 20:00 GMT / 16:00 EST. Feel free to PM myself or LazyTrain with any questions! ))

As talk of the Murder Mystery being postponed is spread, old posters are torn down to be replaced by new flyers, announcing another event. There is still talk of doing a Murder Mystery on some day in the coming weeks.

//Saturday, April 17th at 4pm EST.//

//Murder Mystery had to be postponed due to player unavailability at the time, it will be done later as it's own standalone event, so look forward to that!//
