Event Description
NOTE: All time slots are currently filled. IC: Sometimes doing the right thing that needs to be done looks like the wrong way to others. We have a situation we would like to handle quietly. How bad is it? Well, I AM a dragon. And so is my "partner". OOC: A stealth AND timed excursion into the ruins of Ravensloft in search of Pyr's Vault! There has been evidence that items have escaped from the Vault and so the final contingency plan must be taken: a series of fail-safes were put in place to collapse the Vault. Once activated they trigger its ultimate destruction of everything left inside. Small bands are needed to enter the ruins to activate the contingency in three separate areas. The Vault is surrounded by unknown monsters, traps and magics. The Dragon Merchants are willing to pay for certain items recovered. Beyond that, whatever has been hoarded between now and the demise of the castle twenty- five years ago are there for the skilled, the stealthy, and the lucky. Common knowledge, though, is that Eagle's Rook knows there may be attempts to "loot" the ruins. Considering the legends of what has been down there, they are not happy with people trying to get in and accidentally unleashing some calamity in their lands and upon the Realms. Scouting patrols of the ruins have been stepped up, yet it may be Vandor himself will be watching to ensure no vile deed is done, now that Sir Vawn is a Templar... Each group, while at the ruins, has THREE (3) hours between the scout patrols to do what they can, or risk the potential ire and diplomatic arrest of Eagle's Rook. Meet at a forgotten tavern in the little town of Shadow Pass in unclaimed lands(you'll know). The Dragons have purchased passage with some merchants to get groups over the border of Eagle's Rook, past the village of Haze and up to the castle ruins. Successful parties will be welcomed to the standard tavern fare after their quest, or just to drink to the demise of their comrades that got caught... or dead. Did we mention we don't encourage 'going back for folks'? Good luck! 9:00am - 1:00pm 1:00 - 5:00 5:00 - 9:00 1. Kovaks Shandar Syruss 2. Aranel Trent Tyruss 3. Laika Serafina Zamikiel 4.

Event Wrap-up
So where to begin⦠âIt takes a village to raise a child.â In our case, we had over 30 people staffing this event, and not including many people in preparation of the event, to help raise our child. And in the process of raising our child⦠we created a village. The effort for so many people, across such long distances to make this one day experience⦠is staggering. I am truly humbled by the number of talented, enthusiastic people who stepped up and made this happen. I know we are going to forget names in this letter. Make no mistake: we appreciate all you did. Thank you to everyone who made GOFER THREE possible. This was an ambitious event, pulling talent from across New England and New York, to create an event set on two separate pieces of land. We had food, we had a small town, on top of having a massive dungeon. Thanks go out to the artisans who put in their time and effort to bring us so many great effects. From Brian Murphy and his amazing Baba Yaga, to Josh Fitzgerald and his inspired/ VERY mobile rock monster. Thanks to Dave Hayden for the multi colored runic gateway! Thank you to John and Amy Wrisley, who are the creators of the mobile dungeon, created the graveyard props, contributed in a hundred ways I canât even remember, and graciously let us use their back yard to create this awesome dungeon. A special Thank You to all of the NPCs at the dungeon, fighting 9+ hours in the insane heat, helping to put up and break down the space. To Brendan, Will, Ryan, Greg, Megan, Amy, Jon, Mikey, James, Josh, Jak, Brady, Connor and Lexi/ Alexâ¦. You all are the stars of this show. Thank you for braving it all, staying safe and rolling with what we had. A thank you to everyone at the town: Janna, Emily, Elyse, Amber, Jamesâ father, Katrina: Thank you for making the town a diverse, immersive experience with solid entertainment and continuous, good food. Thank you to Aaron Metzger for being the magic Marshal and Brendan Turcotte for being the head NPC. Your willingness to roll with the situation and the chaos an event can be was much appreciated. You were both important cogs in our mechanism. A Special Thanks to Megan Matulewicz who took on the task of organizing and executing the food, working the grill, feeding multiple meals to people from Friday through Sunday. I need to thank the nations of Folkestone, Blackwood, Neden, Chimeron, Ashenmark, and Invictus, for all of your time, entertainment, and items donated to this experience. Without your efforts and support, and event like this would not be possible. Thank you to all of the players who came. We hope you enjoyed the experience: We do this all for you, so let us know in what ways you can what you like, what you didnât like and how your experience was. I also want to thank all the people who brought their families to Shadow Pass. This was honestly unexpected for me. To see so many children, and the many older generations of people, was heart warming for me. Thank you for coming and experiencing our crazy. Sincerely, Steven Matulewicz Melissa Metzger Jessica Osio
