Hey guys,
Well today is the last day of the Dragon Festival, and I thought we could share what we got or tried to get for it. The major day that I took running on the festival was Tuesday (7/4). I had been collecting orbs all weekend to get a dragon mask for each of my chars. Then on Tuesday they were doing the real festivals. Every two hours they had the emporer come and give a (LONG) speech. Then he'd give everybody a mask. Then came the fun part.
So these celestial essences were dropped throughout the town and the grawps would appear. You had to carry the essences to collectors spread throughout the town without getting hit by a chasing grawp. The score was shown at the top, if you won festival presents would fall afterwards as fireworks. If you lost, I assumed that you wouldn't get any presents. The presents contained either rice wine (200 gp), bean cakes (200 gp), jade orbs (for the mask), or a platinum. Pretty awesome, eh? Free money falling out of the sky.
Another thing I'm STILL working on getting is the Charmed title, for winning 50,000 tickets. A game of chance that costs 25gp per ticket and you either win 5, 55, or lose 10 each time you play. Kind of expensive. Anybody want to add to this?
