I don’t know about you, but it’s the time of year that gold is just burning a hole in my pocket, and this weekend is the chance to spend it at the Market Day in Fae. Wares from a variety of merchants will be available for purchase with a variety of currencies including green and lots of different types of gold. Vendors include: The Fairwinds Trade Caravan, Realms Outfitters, Dani's Apple Treasures, Services from Iawen, and Tao's Tea and Lucky Noodle Emporium. But the Market Day in Fae is much, much more than just a chance to boost the Realms’ economy.
This event has a little bit of everything at a very affordable price and in a great,central location. This light-hearted, fun-packed event will also feature heavy role-playing, so it will be a great time to hang out and socialize. For those of you seeking combat, there will be a combat pit, and Gau Dring Big Game Hunt will be running to give you something to battle if you want to add to your Hunter Points. If you are interested in finding out what is going on in the wider Realms, there will be many chances to interact with a variety of plots throughout the day. In addition, this is an opportunity to put out your own plot teaser if you reach out to the EH’s prior to the event and get the okay! There will also be a ton of non-combat activities throughout the day including a stacked deck tournament, bardics, and carnival games.
Ultimately, this event seems like just what the Realms calendar needs this time of year. It will be fun, relaxed, and has an inviting atmosphere. As an added bonus, this event is kid and newbie friendly, so be sure to bring your friends and family.
