EuropaI wanted to announce a very funny and entertaining event I prepared for Europa community , on Friday 10/04 at 8 UK time, Felucca facet: it`s called the Evil Chicken Mage event. It will start at 8 UK time at yew gate felucca (Europa), a blue chicken will appear delivering books to the players who wanna partecipate. Inside the books will be written the location of the evil chicken mages location, a group of cursed mages, who travel the land of sosaria as chickens.

SonomaYMCA Storytelling, Friday April 10th @7:00pm Pacific
Greetings! Please join us this (and every) Friday at 7:00pm Pacific Time (9pm Central, 10pm Eastern), on Sonoma/Felucca at the YMCA* for Story Night. The Yew Merry Center for All will be awarding a purse of gold to the player whose story is accorded the popular vote by those in attendance. Especially desired are those veterans with tales to tell from Sosaria of yore - of deeds, deaths and derring-do - anything with which to regale the audience. Your stories are all new to them...you are the legends before their time. Tell `em like it was! (Songs, poetry and humor are always welcomed, as well)
Sharpen up those pens and come to share a tale of your choosing with us...or simply grab a seat by the fire, toss back an ale or three, and enjoy listening to other`s creations. So...blow the dust off of those manuscripts, polish em up a bit, and drop by the YMCA for an evening of entertainment, refreshments...and gold!
*
The Yew Merry Center for Allis a player-run, blessed, public tower, located directly across the road from the Yew Cemetary, south of Yew, on the Felucca facet of Sonoma.
REMINDER: The YMCA is a neutral establishment, and all hues are welcomed...red, grey, orange, purple or blue. No aggressive acts towards other patrons are condoned on the premises. A caveat, however: this event takes place in Felucca, so please do not travel with anything that you cannot afford to lose.
