Valentines Day Has Arrived
It is that time of the year again and love has filled the air, giving all within the Unfounded Kingdom a new look on life. Whether if be a deep long term romance or a newly found crush, adventurers and people of the land are welcomed to celebrate their love ones during this time. During the event various incentives will be handed out to Adventurers to ensure they perform at their best and show only their best to their loveones.
I'm curious to know if this has been done before, but I was wondering there was a Valentines Day Event planned for the Rp or if it was okay to go ahead and start planning one, with the intention of having a thread run from the 19th Of Jan to the 23rd Of February. The length of the event would be so that everyone has enough time to post, celebrate the event and wrap up the event.
There would be several aspects to the event, for example;
Monsters would drop certain items.
Perhaps special items for example candy or chocolate or maybe items that can be crafted together by an NPC or people of the land to construct an item that grants a bonus to xp gained while fighting in a party of two?
Possible Quests
There would also be a demand for coconia fruit, so due to the lack of it existing, there could be a quest to find it for the event?
Also the town would need decorating preparing, players could be convinced to post threads to craft these items? So there would be several bonus prizes for any craft items donated to the event?
Maybe an Npc is looking for a brave group of Adventurers to escort him to the next town over to visit his sweetheart?
Or maybe there is a PVP arena event for brave warriors to battle it out to win tickets to the grand Valentines Day Ball?
Perhaps there is a raid boss quest in whcih Adventurers must stop an evil Prince/lord who was scorned by his lover and thus wished to prevent all from celebrating with their love ones. If the event is not completed, all Conconia fruit might leave you with the inability to feel emotions. It would give Adventurers or people who play NPCs of all levels to band together for the event.
A Valentines Day Ball or Festival with several games designed around Valentines Day
Possible Items to Introduce
Chocolate - Event Food Item
Cupid Wings - Typical Event Costume
Couple Item - grants bonus to party of two, maybe more xp earned or a bonus to attack and defence or characters?
The Event would Possibly end with the end of the ball.
Notes;
I've noticed that events on this forum tends to drag on long past their date, thus preventing other events from beginning and players unable to finish said event. I really think this needs t be corrected. Someone who organised these events should set an end date and have certain plot devices that they can post when posting becomes lax or stalled, to push the story forward at certain times. If players wish to cover what they might have missed, they can do so in a separate thread or simply in their next post while continuing with what they are currently doing. I really believe this is the best option for threads to stay alive.
