Festivals

Welcome to the Festivals guild page!

This is the main wiki home for coordinating our efforts in passing the Principles and maybe even some test passes for the Test of Festivals. The Guild hall is in Asyut at 1050, 2354, just east of zFree.

Thank you for visiting and contributing!

Current News:

The Test of Festivals has been opened. Now, we are testing for ALL of the gods and compiling a list of the player requirements for each god. Please gather up your testing mats and take them to any common altar and test for your requirements with a partner.

For your convenience, the common altar at Festivals is currently set up for Ra testing. Why that one? Because the wine flavors have changed between tales, so we're trying to generate a full list of the wines that Thoth and Ra will ask for.

When are we actually doing a Festival?
Not yet. Still figuring out the requirements and gathering the mats.

How do I test?
