Why I Want to Go- Black & White 2011

Black & White 2011
October 22, 2011 (Saturday 12pm) - October 22, 2011 (Saturday 11pm)

One of the mainstays of the Realms, this is the event where you can take your armor off and show that you can do something other than fight. That is not to say there will be no fighting, because there will be tournaments and the occasional quest going on during the day, but the hightlight of the season is the masquerade ball and court in the evening. Here we get to see the chivalry and pageantry that elevates the Realms beyond a simple fighting system. During the course of the year we simply don't get to see enough of this level of pomp and circumstance and honestly, such events only enhance the Realms as a whole. So, get your mask and fancy garb and have a good time!

If you have never been to this event site before, it is a beautiful site. No hills to break the backs of the older players, but still plenty of woods and trails for action during the day. The interior of the hall has a wonderful medieval look and feel to it which really helps to get into the mood. This is an event not to be missed.
