A multidisciplinary faculty committee from SnakeU would like to formally invite all those eager for knowledge and delicious food to the Feassst of the Gorgon–a combination event held both as a celebration in honor of the Year of the Snake and as an academic conference dedicated to uncovering the mysteries of the Obsidian Necropolis. We will be taking up my earlier good work, as well as that of Professor Boa, and venturing further into its depths.
We’d also like to extend a huge welcome to our newest hire in our necromancy department: Esper Dalliance. Esper and her hoard of very capable undead sous-chefs (all of whom wash their skeletal hands regularly) will be providing the meals and refreshments for our conference. We welcome her visionary approach to experimentation, and are delighted–for the sake of science and progress–to share with you the results. Four courses of exciting chemical substances, mysterious fleshy components, and mystifying membranous material. Truly a feassst for all the senses. Plus, who knows what kinds of thrilling side effects these foods will have on you? Only good things, we’re sure.
Please arrive promptly at noontime for an academic assessment that will help you identify your ideal snepartment (snake department), followed by various research preparations fueled by snacks from the kitchen.
The first Necropolis expedition will depart at 1PM. Thereafter, we will return to the conference hall for the first course and to share our findings. We will then alternate delving into the Necropolis and researching in the conference hall–both by way of Esper’s culinary experiments and through interaction with a mysterious Ziggurat that a previous snarcheology team located in the Necropolis.
–Professor Gemma Ugander, on behalf of the SnakeU Faculty
OOC: We will alternate serving feast courses with roughly hour-long ventures into the dungeon in groups. There will also be an in-character game to play while you partake in the food. Please follow the link below to register your dietary restrictions with the kitchen. This will help us be best prepared to feed everyone.
