Hydaelyn Role-Players

Come one! Come all! Welcome to Vylbrand Academy's first annual Festival of Science and Magic fair! That's right! You heard it! After kicking off with a talent show, we've decided to put up a science fair. Of course! With a science fair there will be some limitations and rules. If you are someone with a great theory or invention and looking to show it off to the world, this is the event for you!

This event will take place Saturday May 16th at 4pm EST and go on till we finish. As sometimes folks like to linger after the festivities. (Yes, it is another EU friendly event) at Vylbrand Academy (Plot 2, Ward 3). The stage for this event will take place in the basement at the Limsa Lager Bar and Theatre.

DEADLINE will be May 15th for submissions. You don't have to have your project entirely ready by then but it is important to let us know you plan to attend, etc.

So how this will work is each entrant will submit 1,000 gil to the ballot box operator once we prepare. The pot entirely goes back out to the players and sometimes folks donate extra for the end of the event for the prizes. It will be 50% to 1st place, 2nd 35% and 3rd will be 15%.

Each participate will come onto the stage and roleplay setting up their theory, experiment, or project on the stage. After this, they will demonstrate what they have said up and discuss it. Due to time constraints, we will not be able to have an open forum from the audience unless we don't have a huge amount of sign ups. We're keeping it to about 10 minutes max, 7-8 depending if we have an overwhelming amount of entrants.

Note: After the demonstrations end, we will do ballot voting again in terms of silent tells to one assigned person. We are doing it this way to prevent anyone from being upset if their project is not voted on.


Reason is simple, we want to keep this event clean and fun for all audiences.

Any questions, please feel free to pm me or send me a tell in game, or reply to this thread.

Thank you,

Kyra Tsukino, Headmistress of Vylbrand Academy

You have Satomi in your FC. The "no giant death robots" joke isn't really a joke...

In all seriousness, Chao will observe. Unless she's been beat to hell or run off again by Garleans. She literally can't actually make a demonstration because all her science and magic involve violence.

Nebbs rips down the flyer, "Science.. hogwash!"

She scrunches it up in her fist, "It's bad enough some whaco sorts believe in such made up delusional craziness, but to put it on the same thing as proven and reliable Magic is absurd and to give it equal weight is just insulting and idiotic."

Nebbs stops off magic static cracking through her hair, "Someone needs to stop these fool and bring down this travesty."

Still looking for entrants!

Thank you Foxberry. I am hoping we'll get some folks to sign up. I wanted to do something more academy-ish for an event, since that's partly our theme.

Alas, while L'yhta would love to bring out her SHISHCAPAB or AWESOME to show off -- particularly with a World's Fair style announcement/presentation -- I can't make a Saturday afternoon event. I'll poke some other members of Mysterium, though, and see if anyone else would be interested!

Oh I SO wish I could make this...maybe I can view some things at the tail end at least. ^_^

I would be interested in having Rosette attend and present her theory on aetheric influence on the Rhotano's marine life. Where might I actually declare a submission?

You can do it on here, PM me on the forums, or send me a tell in game. I have you down as wanting to attend.

Still taking entrants up until the end of tomorrow night. So far I have one!

Today is the final sign up day.

Due to the lack of participants and folks stating it was a bad Saturday. We are postponing it till May 16th... SO if you want to sign up to be part of it. Sign ups run till May 15th.

Hopefully with pushing it back, many of the folks will be able to attend.

Remember, entrants -- sign up deadline is this coming Friday!
