Hello everyone! It's time for our first event here on Sonata of Awakening, and it's a 2-in-1!
IC Event: Carnival of Time
Once every year in Clock Town, people gather to mark the passing of time and the harmony of nature. Those who attend bring hand-made masks to wear while they enjoy the festivities, as per tradition. Music, dancing, fireworks, tasty food and circus performances are all part of the fun, and all four districts are bustling with people from out of town who have come to take part in the festival. The inn is booked solid with reservations, and the shops and restaurants are busier than any other time of year. The door to the top of the clock tower opens only on the eve of the carnvial at midnight, and people traditionally head up to the top of the tower to pray for a good harvest for the coming year. Though something eerie has been in the air lately. The wind seems a bit colder, the animals haven't been acting right, and the people have been having nightmares and strange dreams. Hopefully the celebration will change things back to normal.
This event will kick-start the main plot, so it is a good idea to attend and get your characters involved. There will be a reward for all the participants towards the end of the carnival, too.
OOC event: Grand Re-opening
To further celebrate our new site, we're going to have a few ooc activities as well~
1) Advertising: There was very little involvement in our last advertising contest, probably because of how many ads one needed to do to maximize their benefits. This time around, there are much fewer ads to make, and only three rewards.
If you make...
5 ads: You will receive 100 rupees.
10 ads: You will receive an extra magic container.
15 ads: You will receive a magic blessing.
2) Drawing: Draw one of your characters somewhere in the Zelda universe, or doing something from one of the games. For example, they could be riding a loftwing, or opening a treasure chest. This can be done on paper, in any drawing program, pixel art, etc. The reward for this is a free bottle.
3) Posts: If you manage to make twenty IC posts by September 30th at midnight, you will receive a site reward for your account.
