* Frontier Days Ki'lin Hunt [#d1e5791c]
 Monday, August 24th at 9:00 PM
>Join Beacon Hall Archive and Twilight Hall as we seek to find, slay, and skin the mythical entity known only as a ki-lin.  We're gathering in the Kobold Village, at the Beacon Hall park to form a war party.  Ki-lin are fabled legends described as chimeric unicorns with the head of a dragon embodied by an ungulate, with a ferocious mane.  But have you ever seen one?  If not, we ask you to join our war party which aims to find this beast from another plane!  Reading historical texts is educational, but we invite you to witness uncanny events rather than relying on lore or mere hearsay in the first-ever Frontier Days Ki-lin Hunt.  Before we begin, a brief lecture on the nature of extraplanar beings, as well as the fundamentals of summoning, along with a simple history of the Monastery and the Broken Lands will be told to cover the bases, including a question and answer session.  Subsequently, an array of options for how to Hunt Ki-lin will be summarized and voted upon by all war party members.  The results of the vote will be binding rules for the hunt by all participants; one option is the offer of 3 million silvers as a bounty price for the first horn procured, should war party members accept this option and determine how to distribute it.  We kindly ask all participants to stick with the agreed rules or opt not to participate.

* Rats Invade the Landing [#l14146a5]
 Sunday, July 5th at 10:00 PM EDT
>Rats are invading Wehnimer's Landing!   River Rats, that is.  Join the past and present chairs of Beacon Hall Archive as they celebrate the opening of the house's new home away from home.  Our newly constructed Annex in the Kobold Village is largely open to the public, containing a gallery with artifacts from the days of yore, a small library, and a park.  Following the Annex formal opening ceremony and tour, we will relieve all boredom taking turns leaping out of the tree house in Town Square.  The game prize will be a bank note flung into the Square by the powerful gusts of wind created when a troop of fools plummet from a large height.  In order to spread the joy and merriment of River's Rest, the note will be accompanied by winterberry ale, pickles, and notes of lesser value.

Afterwards, we will gather in the Beacon Hall Magical Workshop and discuss the ins and outs and the benefits provided by such rooms, including imbedding, magical charging, scroll infusion, enchanting, and ensorcelling.
