20 September celebrates the Void Faerie Festival Council! Keeping tradition of the annual Faerie Festival schedule, Host Pirate Dark Faerie Ahre welcomes the diplomatic meeting of the council of Faeries following the abdication of the Faerie Queen and the empathy towards Grey Faeries and Dark Faeries that permits Host Ahre to gather together her Neopian Faeries of Anglo Montreal to cosplay a Faerie Festival Council meeting of a large group of Faeries representing each land to discuss the future of ruling Faerieland and the world of Neopian lands beyond. A FREE feast of customized plantbased dessert Faerie Foods by local plant-based pastry shops will be offered. Amongst the council and all local and interprovincial guests of Mount Royal Park, activities will include minigames from Faerieland and The Void Within Plot. The public in attendance of the days festivities will be sent on a scavenger hunt across three pavilions in search of Void Essences still scattered across the land as shattered inert remnants of The Void Within Plot, as well as the Wheel of Excitement, to win Neopets merchandise prizes, various Upper Deck Neopets Battledome TCG collections, and exclusive event-only rare item codes from prize pools past and present. Featuring a challenge of Upper Deck Neopets Battledome The Void Within TCG to be played against the Faerie Council in order to win their favour and hear your pleas for peace in the lands!
Itinerary:
I will be arriving earlier in the day to set up the tables and seating arrangements by noon at the Beaver Lake Pavilion upper floor where the Cafe is located. This will be our main hub from noon to six.
Guests are free to arrive at any point during that period, as soon as a guest arrives, they will be greeted with a goodie bag which they will be filling up with prizes during the day (everyone will win something).
The tables will be set up like previous events, one table with the void-touched wheel of excitement, one table with two Neopets tarot cards decks that you can do readings on one another, one table with Battledome TCG cards, boards and dice, one table with all of the dessert. The remainder of the cafe will have enough seating to accommodate everyone in attendance as well as the general public. Bring your peaceful composure and helpful nature because the public LOVES to ask questions.
TCG cards will be available from my private collection for anyone to use, plus guests will be winning cards throughout the day as prizes. The actual gameplay will be for anyone who wants to play throughout the day, there is no organized tournament but if you want to challenge any of the faerie council, it will be encouraged !!
Now, one of the new scheduled attractions to the event will be the faerie council meeting. Based on WHEN we have everyone together that is in their faerie form hopefully from the window of 2-3 PM. Hence why I need to know exactly what everyone who wishes to be in costume will be dressed as in advance. This will be an area directly outside the Beaver Lake Pavilion entrance, and can be watched from the balcony of the cafe or outside the pavilion. Those who are cosplaying as faeries will be asked to grab a pillow from my secret stash representing their colour (I should have close to 15 pillows to distribute) and make their way to sit in a crescent formation on the ground around a blanket. There, I will have suggested scripted prompts of possible discussions and scenarios, but I allow us to fully immerse ourselves into character improv and perform by presenting solutions to keeping the world of Neopia functional post Fyora abdication. The council will then ask that guests vote on whom they believe will be the best faerie out of four finalists determined by me, as host. During the vote, a special guest of the Happiness Faerie will be spreading some happy vibes with comedy.
The next new mini game will be the Void Essence Scavenger Hunt. Normally towards the end of the event, we all gather to the ground level of the pavilion, but this time we will shake things up by guests being summoned downstairs from the cafe to compete from the hours of 3-4 PM. Void Essences will be hidden by my assistants for you to collect. There will be three locations to hunt for the void: main level of the pavilion, outside the pavilion, and around the Beaker Lake promenade. A total of 50 void essences will be scattered throughout. You will be placed into four teams.
