Rogue Cathedral's Festival of the Veil

Recommended Posts

Festival of the Veil

(Samhain/Halloween festival and Impalong)

October 24-30th 2021

(ended)

 

Greetings Fellow NFI Guys and Ghouls,

Its your friendly Cathedral Crypt Keeper here,

I'm just dieing with excitement to invite you to one of the first Norther Freedom Isle Impalong.

The Zombies and I will be hard at work getting everything ready including this post,

keep an eye on this page for updates. 

 

 

What's an Impalong?
It's a community event/festival that's hosted by someone on their deed, often times they have themes to match the season, holiday, or hold some special meaning to the host. The word impalong was created long before i became a wurmian, but it refers to the action of gathering and improving items for your fellow Wurmian, it is an event where  crafters and priests from across Wurm join together to improve/enchant other players gear for free. Everyone is welcome to work on their skills at the event. In addition to the imping/enchanting, there are various other things such as games and events, prize giveaways, contests, and sometimes even GM's drop in to spawn a few mobs on unsuspecting Festival-goers.

 

Location

The Rules

Spoiler

Item Placement:

Name your items before placing them into improvement/casting coffins, shelves or forges! 
Double-check which container you should place your items in, and place them there. (Most forges/coffins/racks are already labeled for ease of location)
Pick up your finished item as soon as possible to make space for new items. (staff or the impers will be able to trade you your items)
If space is running short, Impalong staff will move finished items to "Overflow" shelves. You will need to contact Impalong staff in order to retrieve your items.

some commonly misplaced items are listed below

 

  • Carving Knife, Sickle, and Scythe(blade only) are  Bladesmithing.
  • Finished Sickle, and Scythe are  Weaponsmithing.
  • (Cooking) Knife and Leather Knife are Blacksmithing.
  • New fishing rods are Fine carpentry.
  • Light Fishing Reels are Carpentry.
  • Medium Reels are Fine Carpentry
  • The deep water reel is Blacksmithing.
  • The professional Reel is Jewlry Smithing

 

What to bring

All items a person wishes to have improved or chanted (only one of each item for each player except for arrows horse shoes and armor pieces) 

only one full set of armor (leather, chain, plate) per person, in addition to one set of wool or cloth clothing.

you may bring 2 sets(8 total) horse shoes 2 saddles,2 saddlebags, and 2 bridles.

you may bring 20 hunting and 20 war arrows.

Large items such as forges, floor looms, spinning, wheels, larders, etc. are welcome.

Wagons and carts are will be imped outside the building. 

 

Improvements/Enchanting:

Quality items are improved to is at the discretion of the imper, but the minimum anything will get imped to is 70ql; if you want higher quality than arrange that via PM with an imper but ensure first that there is not a backlog of other items to be imped first.
Only items that are 70ql+ will be cast on(unless they are skiller items; if they are below 70ql for skilling purposes name the object as such along with your name).
Place your items into the shelf labeled with the enchantment you want. YOU are then responsible for moving the items to other Shelves for other enchantments.

Floor Looms and spinning wheels can be placed for chanting WoA 
Getting your items enchanted is at your own risk!

 

Other:

Contact Oleonder or a Festival Staffer if you wish to be assigned a room.

Do NOT Drive or leave your wagon/cart in the Community Workshop. (unless to drop off a large item for imping/chanting and immediately return it outside.)

Do NOT abuse the system by bringing in a dozen items of the same type to get improved/enchanted.(this includes the same item made of a different material.)save for certain things like arrows or horseshoes.

If that occurs the items are forfeit, confiscated, and fed to the beast of the deep or just sacrificed.
Do NOT sell items that you've gotten improved/enchanted. The pro-bono work done here is not so you can make a profit, so if that is your intention you are not welcome here.
Turn OFF your personal light sources like lanterns or torches! It helps with the lag.
If you have any issues contact Oleonder or a Staffer ingame or on the Discord.

I'll bring my Lib priest for Free BoTD/Bloodthirst enchants!

 

Also for donations for enchanting, Libs can use almost all the butchered body parts. Eyes, bladders, tails as well. In case anyone offers those!

Excellent it wouldn't be a good Veil Festival without a representative of the Goddess of death. the crypt is cold and dark just the way she likes it, and as i said before feel free to join the discord.

Sounds like fun! I'll hopefully be able to help/provide some kind of imping service at that point. It's still a while until october, so I got some time to work on some skills!

.. If nothing else, I currently have 41 soul depth to help apply some runes if you can't find anyone else with a higher SD by then ^^ (It's at least something a chef can help with, lol)

Every warm body counts, we still have plenty of time for u to Bone up on your skills and u can still help with grinding item ql up to your max it will help the speed of imping.  i am looking forward to having a wonderfully busy event with plenty of things to do, the zombies and I are working steady on creating games and other fun things for all festival goers.

Carving Knife, Sickle, and Scythe are  Bladesmithing.

While the carving knife blade, sickle blade and scythe blade are bladesmithing the completed tools use Weaponsmithing skill to improve.

 

You may be underestimating the amount of sacrificial materials needed, at the recent Friendalong on Pristine a total of 718,000 favour was used. For the first Impalong on the Northern Isles my guess is a lot more than that will be needed.

 

I can provide the 1000 wemp for you it's already in storage.

 are you expecting people to need sickle blades and carving knife blades imped? why is that? just forget the bladesmithing and say "carving knife, sickle and scythe are weaponsmithing"

 

how big is the workshop? best for impalongs in my opinion is to make the building small enough that impers always count for the sermon of priests, without having to move. looking at your pictures im not sure if yours is.

 

you say that you are still working on decorations, it may be a good idea to keep decorations to a minimum to avoid lag problems.

 

do you have people on your staff from different time zones?(your list of staff members looks very short) remember other players live all around the world and will play at all times of the day and night in your timezone.others impalongs solve this by making players with good reputations who are attending and willing into staff too, to have better responses at all times.

 

don't take this the wrong way if you have any of this problems i want you to solve them so the event works better.

your libila sac category is a bit narrow. we can use any butchering product that isn't meat, feathers, pelts, or coal. so hides, fur, gland, tooth, heart, eyes, and so on all work.

yes sometimes people bring rare tool heads that they have been holding on to for a while to get imped and then imp the finished tool

5x5 i have been staff at several other impalongs and sermon groups and have designed buildings for them too. so i am confident in the building i have designed

i have taken this into consideration and i use the term decoration very broadly.

yes i just haven updated the staff list yet on the form yet, but the discord is a bit better.

thank you for your concern just so everyone knows this form account is an alt account i made just for the cathedral deed.

Just out of curiosity, will there be a 2x2 (or bigger) fenced in area for hell horse carts/wagons to park? You can park the cart/wagon with the hellies sticking through inside of the 2x2 fenced area and they won't be attacking people walking by due to the fences. I mainly use a hell cart and I imagine some other people doing it too.

Mostly wanna know if I should go mules or if I can go hellies for my cart 😛

yes pleas for my sanity and the safety of the festival goers and your hellies please leave them at home if you are looking to get your wagon/cart imped, alternatively there is a relative large grass area just off deed not far from the building that you could park in if you are not going to get your vehicle imped.
