You arrive at the town of Trask to celebrate the festivities. You see this posted on a sign.

"Come Celebrate the festival of Samhain!

Dark silence comes whisperings of new beginnings, the stirring of the seed below the ground. Commemorate the souls of the blessed dead. The border between this world and the other world is thin on Samhain, allowing spirits (both harmless and harmful) to pass through.

Honor your family's ancestors and invite them home through celebration. Ward off the harmful spirits by disguising oneself as a harmful spirit and thus avoid harm. The celebration begins at dusk."

Town: Trask
Population: 200-400
Garrison: 20 Royal Guards
Governor: Thomas Sloan

[Yes Sloan is Dr Strange, but only in appearance.]

Trask is an outpost between the capital city of Cassia and Triennium (Major city).

Travel Times:
Cassia to Trask = 13 Days by horse.
Trask to Triennium = 15 Days by horse.

When I am a guest at a convention I am there to entertain people and add to the fun they have at the event. thus, unless the game session is advertised as one where the objective is to kill the PCs--and I've done a few of those--I try to keep PCs alive. Of course if a player doesn't want to have his character survive, the natural selection process of the game environment will take over.

I really want to run this game as a big adventure on a Sunday with my nephew. We should start planning this due to the EM project at work coming to an end soon. We will use the exact characters we used for the King for 1000 years scenario.

	Because World of Warcraft has been the leading culprit in dumbing down the genre to make it easy enough for the mainstream audience who has never heard of an MMO before to hop in and enjoy. Now, this isn't necessarily bad. But the soaring popularity of World of Warcraft has pigeonholed the entire industry into creating clones in order to be successful.
