A note printed in clear but child-like writing on a parchment with a charred corner and wax drippings on it:
CALLING ALL TINKERERS FOR A TINKERING CONVENTION!
I miss having the chance to exhibit my inventions at the Annual Tinkering Convention of (Old) Rachival, and want to share with fellow tinkerers what advancements we have made. So any interested in bringing their device, explaining the theory of how it works, and demonstrating it, please meet me in the Spire's shadow on Sunday October 11. Observers are welcome to join us at your own risk.
I plan to present my Maple Seed Gnome Glider, a Hands-free Underwater Breathing Device, and an In-flight Dragon Drink Server. Please let me know if you would like to present something so that your invention can be added to the agenda.
Awdz Bodkins
P.S. If you can convince the Master Tinkerer in New Rachival that the Gifted are for more than just "Defeating the Withered Aegis and rebuilding our cities!" and that official Annual Tinkering Conventions should be reinitiated like they used to be held in Rachival, I'd be grateful!
< OOC comments
- This is to be roleplay only event, with all actions to be stated in the Role-play chat channel on Order shard.
- ALL ARE WELCOME WHETHER OR NOT YOU WANT TO PRESENT A DEVICE.
- Characters do NOT need to gather at Spire's Shadow to roleplay, however your roleplay chat should reflect that area as if your character were standing there. That location was chosen because it allows for launching from a height and demonstrations in water as well as on land.
- It will be held on Sunday October 11 at 10 am PDT (11 am MDT, noon CDT, 1 pm EDT, not sure if it's 5 or 6 pm Greenwich time).
- Devices may be constructed from anything available in game, but only very simple devices are expected to function adequately well. Please plan what happens when you demonstrate your device accordingly.
Not sure at the moment what I'm forgetting but hopefully it'll work out okay... at least, as safely as any gnomish tinkering convention ever has! >
