Alric, Heppa, Tric, and Glammur entertain themselves at South Tower’s After Harvest Festival. Scene 1 Scene 2 Scene 3 Scene 4 Scene 5 GM Notes The players really enjoyed the Full Bloom festival early in our campaign, so I decided to give them a chance to experience another. Inspiration came from a lot of places. For one, there are the youtube videos by Pupsi where he carves vegetables into ocarinas and then plays pop music. Check out his performance of Africa by Toto. Another inspiration was a renaissance faire, where Danielle and I saw a melon catapult years ago. The shoveling part of the pitchfork competition was inspired by a sand shoveling competition we saw at another fair. The throwing part was because in the Battle for Wesnoth video game the Peasant unit has a ranged attack with the pitchfork in addition to a melee attack.
