Hear ye, hear ye, champions, wanderers, and would-be heroes of PHLARP!
Let it be proclaimed throughout the realm that our long winter hiatus shall end on April 4th, and on that day the gates shall open once more for adventure, glory, and battle!
To celebrate our triumphant return, the following royal boons shall be granted:
Those who have ever played in a Patrol at the property before, whether they be returning veterans or long-absent wanderers, shall receive 30 days of free Gold Membership.
Those who are brand new to our lands shall receive 60 days of free Gold Membership, so that their first steps into the realm may be taken in honor.
And for those who bring fresh blood into the fold, double referral XP shall be awarded:
200 XP when the new player joins us and participates in a Patrol
Another 200 XP once that player rises beyond the rank of Squire
But lo, there is more yet being considered by the lords of the realm.
Depending on our numbers, we are considering hosting PHLARP once each month on the last weekend of the month that contains both a Friday and Saturday.
Should this come to pass, the gates would open on Friday at 6:00 PM. During this time, the town would remain safe: no monsters would roam, and no ten-minute recessions would be called. Wargames may still be played, but they would grant no XP during this peaceful opening.
Even so, a player who attends at all would still receive one-time event participation XP, and a second participation award would be granted if that player remains until Last Man Standing is called at dawn on Saturday.
From that dawn onward, the realm would awaken in full:
Wargames called every two hours
Players may sign on as wandering monsters
Ten-minute recessions may be called
The game matrix would be in full swing
Hourly XP and event XP would be in effect
From there, we would continue hosting PHLARP until Sunday at dawn. Players may remain on Sunday, but no XP shall be awarded after dawn on Sunday.
Also, depending on our numbers, we are considering holding other gatherings for the fellowship of the realm:
Trading Card Game Night
Movie Night
D&D Adventure Night
If these prove viable, they would likely be held Tuesday through Thursday, beginning at 6:00 PM and lasting until 9:00 or 10:00 PM.
And when winter returns once more, we expect to again take a seasonal winter break, so that the people of the realm may turn their hands toward building, improving, and strengthening the property for the adventures yet to come.
All such future plans depend upon our numbers, our growth, and the strength of the community we build together.
So gather your allies. Summon old companions. Bring forth new adventurers.
April 4th, PHLARP returns.
The realm stirs once more.
