Ni hoa!

First, a word of invitation for your entertainment and then on to the business at hand:

"Then come jesters, musicians and trained dwarfs,
And singing girls from the land of Ti-ti,
To delight the ear and eye
And bring mirth to the mind."
—Sima Xiangru (ca. 179-117 B.C.), Rhapsody on the Shanglin Park

I’m honored to announce that the very first Miscreant hosted Firewalker’s competition
will be finally taking place at the Lammas Festival in August. For a long time there have
been many competitions to find many talented bards, but now we ask you to test your
mettle to find out if you have what it takes to be a Fiewalker!

What is a Firewalker, you ask?

Those who are called to entertain the populace day in and day out need apply. If you can
entertain in any way, then you can be a Firewalker. This includes dancers, jokesters,
bards, drummers, and just about anything that can bring a smile (or tear) to the faces of
the people!

The contest begins as soon as you arrive on site. When you stop by Troll, simply state
your intent to compete in the Firewalker’s Competition, and you will be given a fire
token. All people entering the site will be given tokens which they will use to vote for
people who entertain them. There will be extra tokens floating about so keep on your
toes and do your best to entertain as much as you can. Tile Road, the List, and Baronial
Pavilions might be excellent places to work your magic but we suggest you get out there
and move amongst the people as much as possible. All tokens will be gathered at 9am ,
Sunday morning, where they will be counted and the first official Firewalker will be
chosen and gifted the first Firewalker Lantern; to guide their way amongst the campsites
and out into the lands.

((Once we have named a few Firewalkers, there will be a special Firewalkers ONLY
Competition where we will award the victor with the hooked staff of the ‘Prince of the
Firewalkes as well as bragging rights for a whole year! So bring out everything you
have each time and you could be that Prince. –This is not an official position!--))
