Tabletop Gaming Makes Debut At Fantasy Faire 2018

Tabletop gaming has made its debut at this year’s Fantasy Faire in Second Life, with a host of games on offer for people to partake in.

The games include :

Dungeons & Dragons 5e
Fortunately-Unfortunately
The Extraordinary Adventures of Baron Munchausen
Ultimate Werewolf
Kobold Story
Havoc Brigade
Honey Heist
The Witch is Dead
Fate Accelerated
Fiasco

The games range in style and performance, for example The Extraordinary Adventures of Baron Munchausen isn’t really a roleplaying game as such, players sit around telling wild tales, whereas Dungeons & Dragons 5e is very much a roleplaying game.

UAC Medieval Faire For Relay For Life Runs Until June 18th In Second Life

The third annual Medieval Faire in Second Life opened back on May 19th and will run until June 18th.

The Faire is organised by the Unmasking A Cure (UAC) Relay For Life Team and is part of the Relay For Life of Second Life fundraising efforts for the American Cancer Society.

The blurb for the event tells us :

Unmasking A Cure Relay For Life Team (#38) presents the Third Annual Medieval Faire, beginning May 19 – June 19, 2017. The faire, similar to a real world ‘Ren – Faire’, offers medieval tournaments in jousting, en garde, sword melee, magic, archery, and horse racing. There are over 50 merchants participating. They are supporting Relay For Life with items that will be sold for 100% profit to Relay. On the entertainment front a dozen live performers and many djs are all donating their time, talent and treasure to Relay For Life. Don’t miss this exciting month long event; try your hand at all the sports, find that perfect outfit or decor item, enjoy live musicians and dj sets!

The Medieval Faire is a more serene affair than many Second Life events and the fact that it runs for a month means you will have plenty of time to take a look around.

The Faire is split into two distinct areas, a village area and an activity area and both areas are very well designed.

Fantasy Faire Closing Party Today But That’s Not The End Of The Event

Fantasy Faire 2017 hosts a six hour closing party today, from 1pm to 7pm SLT, but the word on the streets of the Fairelands is that this party does not mark the end of this year’s Fantasy Faire.

Via means of nods, winks, secret messages and most importantly of all, an inworld notecard, I can reveal non-exclusively, that this year’s Fantasy Fare 2017 will be open until Thursday May 4th.

The notecard states :

From Her High Faireness: “It’s not a typo! The Fairelands will be open for shopping, hunting, exploring, picture taking, and spontaneous partying through May 4th! Spread the news, even though our planned programming is ending with a six hour closing party on Monday, May 1 from 1-7pm SLT, there is no reason to be sad because we have the Fairelands to roam around until THURSDAY!”

Whereas there won’t be any official events going on, this means that you still have time to visit the wonderful builds for this year’s event.
