Re: Pig Boy
As Ziellmas approached, in Idalos so wide,
Winston the Ferret, with joy in his stride,
Prepared for the gifting, his mission so grand,
To spread happiness across the land.
With faires in flight and magic so sweet,
He baked rainbow chews, a delightful treat.
In hues of the sky and flavors divine,
To accompany wishes, a gift so fine.
With Saiore's skill, they'd find their way,
Appearing magically, come night or day.
A treasure to savor, a taste so dear,
Each sweet whispered love, spreading some cheer.
Winston, the ferret, with his heart full of zest,
Ensured every wish was granted, the very best.
In the spirit of Ziellmas, his purpose so clear,
To bring smiles and laughter, far and near.
And so, through the night, he scurried and flew,
Delivering notes, as he was meant to do.
Upon these notes, the details were writ,
of the people for which, joy they should hit.
"When gifts you have ready, to deliver with joy,
upon a closed door a knock you deploy.
The portal will come for you to make haste,
to deliver your treat to the gifting place."

OOC Information:
Welcome to the fifth annual holiday event! The Staff of Standing Trials are overjoyed to bring you this event to celebrate the various traditions around the world and we'd like to recognise the work of Nymph, Rumour, Munchkin, Pegasus, and Tio who have hosted previous events. This year, Winston, Pig Boy, and Pegasus are teaming up to organise this!
We invite player characters (no more than 3 sign-up characters per player) to sign up for our Secret Gifter event before November 21st. The Secret Gifter event involves an In Character "random act of kindness" towards another player. Your name will be placed into a lottery where you will be secretly paired up with another participant for you to give a gift to (your Secret Character). A different character will give you a gift. You will receive the name of your Secret Character no later than December 10th, and you will be asked to give a gift to the character that you are matched up with.
This year, we will be dividing players based on their choice of whether they wish to receive their gift Face to Face or From Afar.
For those that are interested in receiving their gifts in-thread directly from their gifter, we encourage you to sign up for the Face to face Option. These threads are eligible for both skill points and knowledge, as long as the usual review requirements are met. Please note that distance is not an issue here, IC, there will be a starter post from one of us which puts the two PCs together in a current city. At the end of the thread, both pc's will be returned to where they were.
For those who would like Winston to deliver their gift as a "random act of kindness", you may select the From Afar Option where you will have a single post detailing the gift you are receiving. You may simply use that thread as a link for your acquisition of the item(s) or you may reply. These threads are not eligible for XP unless they are close to the recommended thread length.
You may participate with up to three characters - but it is important that we know who you play, so please fill the form in carefully. You can't gift yourself things!
PLEASE NOTE:
1. The person your PC is giving a gift to is not and can not be the person who you will receive a gift from.
2. The Option you choose (Face to Face or From Afar) will determine the nature of the thread where you receive your gift. If your Secret Character (ie: the pc you are giving a gift to) has chosen the "Face to Face" option - you will be in a thread with them. Therefore, please only sign up if you are willing to accept the wishes of the person you are giving a gift to and are prepared to be involved in a thread with them, if they choose that option. There is no time frame on when you must complete that thread, but normal rules re: posting in the current season or placeholders apply.
Gifts must be:
An item or group of items which you either pay for with WP, already own (in your CS) or craft yourself.
Other (with permission from Pegasus & Pig Boy)
The timeline for this is as follows:
1. You sign up here before December November 21st
2. You receive a PM with your gift recipient (Secret Character) by November 28th.
3. You then PM (on site, please, not Discord) Winston with a description of the gift you'll be bringing. If crafting, you may craft it in thread, but must first provide the description in the PM beforehand, before the 14th of Dececmber.
4. Winston - will post the threads by the 14th of December.
-- For the Face to Face Option - we will post a brief starter post putting the 2 pcs together. This will be machinated by Winston, and when completed can be reviewed as normal.
-- For the From Afar Option - we will post a single post per recipient which details your gift. If you choose to extend this appropriately, this can be reviewed as normal.
Questions? Ask them on our Saoire Holiday Event: Chat and Q&A thread!
For those who participate, you will receive two out of three medals upon completion of your portion.
1. An event medal
2. A "From Afar Gifting" medal - for those who chose to receive their gifts in this option.
3. A "Face to Face Gifting" medal - for those who chose to receive their gifts in this option.

Rharne Calendar: Cylus
Cylus 724 Seasonal Calendar
Weather in Rharne
Cylus Weather
Cylus ice and rain are the hallmarks of the first of the season. Remarkably, there's little actual snowfall, but when it rains during the first half of Cylus (on off for a few days at a time), it has a warmth to it, that freezes when it touches the ground. The air still has the typical cold, however, and can cause speedy exposure if people are caught out for long in the rain without protection. Mid Saun sees the return of snow, and with it a phenomenon of lightning blizzards, otherwise called Wizzards by the people of Rharne, for the fancifully fractal figures they paint on the sky thorugh the icey prisms falling. This phenomenon persists into early Ashan, but is less intense during the first days.
Event Calendar
Image | Name | Date | Description |
Rharne Fighting Circuit | All Season | As a city of brawlers, the fighting spirit of everyday fighters is an identifying mark of its culture. Taverns give out tokens and sponsorships to fighters in order to raise their own profile, as an establishment that caters to only the best, and most renown fighters.Open | |
. | |||
Drink Up! | All Season | Alcohol and brewing are undoubtedly another prominent feature of Rharnean life, along with the constant noise and loud partying that often accompanies the sharing of libations. As such, the people of Rharne are always on the lookout for the next great home brewed beer, ale, wine, spirit or liquor that the next brewmaster may concoct, as the basis for starting a tavern or just sharing among their social circle. Those who engage in the production of and sharing of new brews will surely earn the eternal praise of the Rharnean people. (Mod-Input)Open | |
. | |||
The Festival of Lights | 1st Cylus | Though the trials are dark, Rharnians know that hope will always exist so long as there is light - and alcohol. This hope is symbolized on the first trial of Cylus when many Rharnians gather at the gates of Rharne to celebrate the "Festival of Lights". Each Rharnian brings an unlit candle or lantern and, at the 19th break, Thunder Priestesses/Priests make their way through the crowd to light the candles and brighten the darkness. A parade is then led by the Priesthood, starting at the Earth Quarter and ending in the Sky Quarter just outside of the Lightning Cathedral. It is often a noisy procession, filled with laughter and music and song. Throughout the rest of the season, the Lightning Cathedral keeps candles lit in the prayer space. It is the Chanter Charter's job to ensure the candles do not go out until the 1st of Ashan. Many businesses also keep candles or lanterns lit in their windows during this time.Open | |
. | |||
Blinding Hangovers | 2nd Cylus | Following the morning after the Festival of Lights, many Rharnean Citizens and also visitors who engaged in the festivities report that whenever they glance at a candle, they go blind. Many of these afflicted report also having a hangover during the blindness phase. The phase lasts for several breaks, but repeats if they look at another lantern/candle or other source of flashing illumination. This becomes a problem during the Lightning Snowstorm later in Cylus.Open | |
. | |||
Performative Reconciliation | 6th Cylus | Seeing that the policy of a curfew was highly unpopular, and not only that, but also highly ineffective in shutting down the carrying out of mummer's plays and other performative acts, the Council has repealed the ban on theatrical performances and mummer's shows in general. In fact, performances of all kinds will be funded and had throughout the entirety of Cylus, offering extra renown and wealth for those who participate in these Cylus shows.Open | |
. | |||
Raionan Bookworm Seeks Exchange | 9th Cylus | A newly arrived Raionan scholar has decided to host a knowledge, research, and book exchange at the Dizzy Wizard Tavern. All scholars and those possessing books of all kinds and interests are welcome to attend. The Raionan is offering research lessons to any who will listen, particularly research pertaining to archaeology, specifically ancient sites in Nashaki. He also has an interest in anyone who has information on various sites of archaeological interest in Rharne. He's paying for drinks, on top of it all, so a potential scholar has nothing to lose by attending. (mod-input)Open | |
. | |||
The Wizzard of Rharne | 14th Cylus | A great blizzard sweeps through Rharne, punctuated by flashing lightning as the snow falls in fluffy mounds. While the Lightning hasn't presented a direct hazard to those on the ground, working or playing in the snow, it has prompted many suffering from the blindness hangover to relapse, and are rendered entirely blind until the last day of Cylus. It's a medical mystery. Meanwhile, the Dizzy Wizard coins the term "Wizzard of Rharne" for the peculiar lightning snow storms that have developed. They even devise a new drink by the same name, from sweet spirits that contain notes of peppermint.Open | |
. | |||
Ilaren's Cap in the Snow | 27th Cylus | Where lightning has grazed the snow, during the Wizzard of Rharne, Ilaren's Cap mushrooms have sprouted, where they usually only grow on the island of Vyrelle's lake ice. Now they can be found all over snowbanks in Rharne City. The Tappers of the Priesthood are in a bit of a bind, as this mushroom is sacred to Ilaren, yet all sorts of people are using it to experience the hallucinatory effects. The Thunder Priesthood has put out a bounty for all the caps one can gather, and also a bounty for those willing to study the cap, and understand why it has suddenly grown outside of its usual habitat.Open |

Re: Rharne Calendar: Cylus
Ashan 724 Seasonal Calendar
Weather in Rharne
Ashan Weather
The Wizzards of Rharne continue well into the first dozen trials of Ashan, but swiftly subside as the temperature increases, until the snows have melted. The River predictably rises during this time, as do the shorelines of Lovalus, giving way to white water for the first while until the waters calm, and equilibrium is found.
The Stormwastes, now are a properly fertilized area, temperate with slightly hotter temperatures than the rest of Rharne, but experiencing periodic rainstorms. In fact, the sun doesn't shine quite as much as many who settled that land as they might wish, leading to some water logged plants and erosion in general. It isn't until the latter half of Ashan that the sun begins to make more regular appearances, leading to an abundant blooming in the oft dry fields of the Stormwastes.
The rest of the region experiences this verdant blooming as well, and leads to allergies for many who are susceptible to that infirmity. Pollen is thick in the air, even as far as Rharne itself, as the wheat fields carrying their blossoms all the way over the gates nad walls.
The final days of Ashan greet a greater temperature increase, to near summer-heat, as many anticipate Ymiden.

Bad Dog | 13th Ashan | A local stray has been kicked to the curb by the Tribune Kennel's owner. They have tried to rehabilitate this animal, to no avail. It will pick fights, bite, and generally make a riotous mess of every trial under the roof of the Kennel. The dogs are miserable, and the Tribune Kennel's owner is at the end of their rope. Is it truly a demon dog, or just a hopeless canine that requires a loving home to the stone floors of a messy and noisy kennel. The Tribune Kennel keeps getting him back after every owner tries him out, reporting all manner of strange activity around them, including but not limited to nightmares, children speaking in tongues, and random ghostly possessions. This strange affliction has attached itself to several of the dogs now, and it's only getting worse. What's going on with these pooches? Ilaren herself has offered a reward for anyone who can get to the bottom of this trouble'd dogs seeming curse. (Mod-Input)Open | |
. | |||
Rharnean Jatorrizkoa | 15th Ashan | A good number of Igelak migrating to Rharne undergo the strange and remarkable reproduction cycle of their race. Unfortunately, many of these Igelak opt to do so in bodies of water that are privately owned within backyard ponds, and fountains, and busy beaches, alarming locals and causing a bit of an uproar. This is only slightly mitigated by the very cute and small Berriakoa who emerge from these tainted water features, engaging with and socialization with anyone and everyone nearby. Very curious beings that learn very quickly at a young age. The older Igelak are not so swift to learn, however.Open | |
. | |||
Umbral Howling | 27th Ashan | Unearthly howling can be heard echoing from the Umbral Caverns.. Remarkably, this howling is accompanied by echoes that make it all the way to Rharne Proper, around the Earth Quarter near the harbor. The howling tends to occur at dusk, during crescent moon phases of the red moon, Rhakrii. Rumors abound of a Sessfiend, or a cursed of Syroa that slipped through the cracks during the Windshear Brotherhood's attack. Those investigating should consult with the Lightning Knights and Thunder Priesthood, if only to record their identities for the sake of next of kin. (Mod Input)Open | |

Fortune's Favorite? | 47th Ashan | A well-publicized gambling contest is held in the barrel pot, where many of the best gamblers in Rharne have gathered to try their hand against any and all challengers. Those who participate in a gambling match at this venue during this date, will often come away with more than the usual windfall. (1 wp per skill level in gambling). However it's also reputed for hosting big losers too. Strangely enough, those who lose a substantial amount of wealth in these contests, will experience an event of extraordinary luck in the next few days. (Record a loss of 5 wp during this event, and seek mod-input for a random luck event, we can discuss details in PM).Open | |

Freedom Flower Fest | 108th Ashan | In honor of all those who facilitated the emancipation of all slaves in Rharne, and arriving in Rharne, Ilaren has declared a day of honor for the Immortal of Freedom, Ashan, during his own season. Three arcs and a cycle from the fateful Vhalar day, where Ilaren vowed that no enslaved person setting foot on Rharne shores shall be held in bondage, a festival and florist contest will be held. The most beautiful flowers and boquets presented will find a place in the Lightning Cathedral itself, and the ones who cultivated them will be given a grant for their future gardening endeavors. It's encouraged to bring flowers to anyone who suffered bondage of any sort during their life, as a gesture of goodwill. (mod-input for the florist contest)Open | |

River Cruises | 110th Ashan | The weather gets balmier in late Ashan, and the melting snows have lifted the levels of the Zynyx to where it's flowing fast and free. As such, many taverns sponsor what they call 'River Cruises' to generate interest in their brews and wares and specific culture of their tavern. People are free to join in these cruises, for one tavern or another, or to capitalize and try their own hand at concessions. Anyone who makes a try and capitalizing on the trend may earn extra renown or wealth.Open | |
