Every good adventurer understand that they have a duty to serve on the Western Flank from time to time. If nobody ever fought on the Western Flank, there would be no Realms for us to Adventure in.
Are you a new adventurer who wants to learn about the Western Flank before your first tour? Are you a seasoned quester who wants to sharpen your skills? Come to the KoEF Training Day and join Sir Orion and Squire Ryu for guided expeditions to the Western Flank of the Realms. You’re likely to encounter all kinds of different situations on the Western Flank, so these training sessions will teach you how to prepare for them in advance and what you can do once you’re in the moment. Each expedition will take less than an hour, so you will have plenty of time to engage with the other training sessions available that day. We look forward to seeing you!
((OOC: There will be two parts to this NPC workshop: for the first half of the event, we will be running short academic-style lessons on writing engaging NPCs and scenes. We will repeat these lessons at regular intervals so that you can drop in whenever you are able to. The lesson will culminate with an exercise that can be completed at your own pace: writing a short scene and accompanying NPCs to fit a prompt. During the second half of the event, these scenes will come to life as you play these NPCs… but for a scene that someone else wrote!
All materials will be provided. Participants are encouraged to bring a plain black shirt or to wear one under their normal garb. You do not need to have any prior experience with NPCing or scene writing, though to get the most out of these lessons you should have already attended at least a couple of questing events.
This workshop will run all day and you will be able to attend other workshops in addition to this one. The lessons in part one will take 15-20 minutes and the writing exercise could take up to an hour to complete. The scenes that we will run in part two should also 15-20 minutes each. We may add time to debrief after each scene if the schedule allows for it.))
