Frost 120 Events

► Show Spoiler

Frost 19: Dire Wolves spotted in the Astralar Mountains
Hunters are warned to be wary when traveling into the mountains. It has been reported that a pack of Dire Wolves has made their home somewhere among the peaks. It is uncertain what has driven them this far south from their normal hunting grounds.


Frost 24: The Great Northern Lights
The Great Northern Lights begin to make their appearance all throughout the northern expanse of Karnor, filling the night sky surrounding the Astralar Mountains with an aurora some would say is magical. The Northern Lights are a sign that Frost is almost halfway over, and that Glade is right around the corner as well. The lights will remain visible at nighttime until mid-Frost, before they recede during the turning point of the season.


Frost 28: Rockslide in the Atralar Mountains
A rockslide occurs on the West side of the Astralar Mountains. This is accompanied by rumbling shakes in the earth, and a deathly silence for several minutes. The Rockslide itself cut off one of the major trading routes for House Veyl, and stalls some of their activities for the season. A team is put together to clear the damage before mid-Frost.


Frost 31: The Shokaze returns from his travels
Word reaches the city of the Shokaze's soon return to the city of Kalzasi. These rumors are quickly confirmed, and the city stirrs to action as preparations for the next day begin and continue into the night.


Frost 32: Celebration of the Shokaze's Return
The Shokaze is welcomed back to Kalzasi with great fanfare and celebration. A festival is held, and stalls of food and wares fill the streets as the music plays and all drinks are discounted significantly. Performances pop up across the city, but especially within the Commons and the Plaza of Jeweled Arches. Festivities continue long into the night, and the Shokaze himself attends several local pubs and bars to be with his people in person.

On this day it is announced that another event will be hosted later in Frost, but the specifics are as of yet unknown.


Frost 38: Unusual Dragonshards
A rumor has begun to spread of unusual dragonshards appearing from locations around the Astralar mountains. These dragonshards are reported to function much like normal, but their color is slightly off. As of yet, there is no explanation for the cause of these 'corrupted' shards. The Circle of Spells recommends to avoid their use until more is known.


Frost 43: Winter Requiem
A seasonal holiday in Kalzasi, the Winter Requiem is hosted on the frozen Lake Udori near the middle of Frost on the coldest night. It is a night of remembrance for those who have passed the previous year, and an acknowledgment that despite how cold everything is now, Glade will return once more to warm the hearts of those left behind. Each of the Great Houses attends, setting up offerings to the lost and burning prayers to symbolically light the way to the next life.

Frost 47: Aetheric Graffiti
Within the Low-City of Kalzasi there have been various locations with graffiti showing up within the morning, a few shops and warehouses are found with a cryptic message being washed off by owners "True glory awaits those within," and "the Crucible is calling," being the only phrases found written. The odd thing is that the ink used to write it was Spellwright's Ink, leading the Sky Guard to question whether it is a simple prank, or if there is some meaning to this cryptic message.

Frost 50: Annoucement from the Circle of Spells
An announcement is made that the Circle of Spells, funded by House Senue and House Veyl, will be hosting a grand event that will last from the 80th through the 85th, to mark the end of Frost and the start of the new year. Further details can be gotten from the Circle of Spells, or from one of the Great Houses who fund the event.


Frost 56: Explosion in the Plaza of Jeweled Arches
The Polished Emerald, a jewel crafting shop in the Plaza, explodes violently in the middle of the night. Surrounding shops and businesses are damaged, notably Jacun's Alchemical Goods as well as the Roasted Hen which were both on the same street. The shop owner and young apprentice both died in the explosion. The Reconcilliators were the first on the scene, followed closely by the Skyguard. No explanation for the event is given.


Frost 63rd: Icewing Mating Season
This time of year is both beautiful and potentially dangerous for those who interact with the Icewing Eagles of House Dahshida. At this time Icewing Eagles are allowed to roam outside their normal housing structures, under the careful supervision of experienced handlers, so they may perform their traditional mating rituals. Those not of House Dahshida are warned to avoid the areas around Yorunorei, the Night Haven. Icewing Eagles are known to become quite aggressive during this time of year, and even their handlers take care and tread lightly.

Frost 74: Aetheric Graffiti
More cryptic messages surface within Kalzasi, this time in the Common District and Plaza of Jeweled Arches. It's clear that this is a coordinated stunt done by multiple people, however, nobody else can recall seeing a person there at the time these messages appeared. "The Midden welcomes you," "Come the Strong," and "Seek the Crucible," are the messages that are found in various locations throughout the two districts. An investigation is being mounted as members of House Dahshida and House Zatrian look into these cryptic messages, and locals are advised to avoid The Midden at this point in time.

Frost 80-85: Kalzasi's Celebration of Inginuity
The events of the Celebration are divided into 3 categories: Single Combat, Team Competitions, and Crafting Exhibitions. The goal of each is to utilize magic in ways to overcome the challenges presented. The three events take place in parallel over the course of 5 days. Participants may participate in either Single Combat or the Team Competitions but can choose to participate in the Crafting Exhibition if they wish as well. The Circle of Spells provides the majority of structure for the event, with influence coming from the Reconcilliators on the subject of the safety of the common people. House Senue and House Veyl provide logistical support. The competition is held in the Guild Expanse, utilizing space provided by the Slayers Keep as well as the Circle of Spells.

[Fawn]

Name: Fawn
Race: Hooman
Likes and Dislikes: For this season I'd love to tie something into her bio-family's history (wink wonk, Paragon), or something plot heavy in general. I'm open for new major or minor plots for Fawn to explore.
Reason for Visiting: Been here since Frost 120 for a new life~
Goal for the Season: I'd like fawn to learn magic, (I believe Rickter is going to attempt to teach her negation and potentially elementalism), as well as push her storyline and who she is as a person.

[Senara]

Name: Senara
Race: Rathari, Wolf
Likes and Dislikes: For Senara, I'd love to challenge her view of humanity and get her to accept the city as 'not so horrible' at least. Maybe find a purpose be that in a person or a place. Though, I imagine she may end up channeling her anger and energy into some less than moral shit (fighting people for the hell of it, picking the wrong fights, maybe dabbling in fight rings/gambling, maybe even theft). Would be interesting to play with her sense of right and wrong in this way
Reason for Visiting: Semi-kidnapped by Brianne, healing and getting away from the mists.
Goal for the Season: Throughout this season, my hope is to get Senara emotionally connected to at least one person in the city to make her want to stay after being healed.

Pieces of the Past - Hannah's story arc will come into play now, as she's in pursuit of a slippery assassin lurking within Kalzasi.
The Argent Knight - After completing his trials Rickter has now become a personal bodyguard to Talon.
What Goes Howl in the Night - Rickter's training will now emphasize on not just magic, but now his Rathari side as well.
Oathkeeper and Oblivion - Rickter's overarching quest this season is to somehow discover where he can find the first of two swords; the fabled Oathkeeper.

Duration of Stay: Until the 70th as Rickter leaves with Talon then.
