EVENT LOG: TAKING THE HOBBITS TO VANAHEIM
Who: Everyone going to Vanaheim!
What: We're Taking the Hobbits to Vanaheim. Part Two of this log can be found here!
When: Days 324-334 ( September 10-30 )
Where: On the way to, the way back from, and in the city of Vanaheim.
Rating: PG-13. Anything that might go higher than that should be taken to a private log, please!
[
Freyr and Freya have been summoned home to Vanaheim, and they have asked any interested traveler in Asgard to come with them. The trip will involve a full IC day's travel by floating Elven train each way, and a five IC day stay in Vanaheim proper. They will be met with a large banquet in the castle courtyard, ushered to large and comfortable rooms in the palace to leave their things and rest in, and given a comfortable spending allowance for any sort of bauble or trinket that they would like to purchase.
The citizens of the city are friendly, but almost condescendingly so. Some will gawk and stare at the travelers; others will speak to them in cooing, coddling tones; others still regard them with open but vague pity, as if not expecting them to understand. Almost all of them will treat them like uncultured, idiot children, and will assume they have no manners and no sense of social intelligence, and will be visibly surprised if they are proven wrong.
Characters will not be babysat or watched over, and will be allowed to go anywhere within the city that they'd like (though any who try to leave will be stopped by stern and chastising guards.)
[ OOC NOTES: This is the mingle log for the Vanaheim travel event! There will be several location headers below with further details on places in the city and events that your characters can visit and participate in. If there is something particular you'd like to do or see that is not listed below, please let us know!! There will be NPCs out and about, but if there is something you specifically want an NPC to tag, please drop us a line or put it in your comment title.
Signups for this are not required and open to everyone, but keep in mind that if your character is in Vanaheim, they will not be around for a majority of the Bad Moon Rising plot. Traditional prose and [bracket-style threads] are both equally welcome! As always, please feel free to ask us any questions you have.

Vanaheim is a truly medieval-looking city and a close ally of Asgard. The city prides itself on tradition and knowledge, with great libraries and a prestigious academy of music and theatre. Residents are mostly a mix of human and elven, and the rulers are a group of the same kind of beings as the Gods of Asgard. Freya & Freyr originally hail from this city -- their coming to Asgard was part of a long-ago peace treaty between Odin and their father: the King of Vanaheim.
Freyr and Freya have been summoned home to Vanaheim, and they have asked any interested traveler in Asgard to come with them. The trip will involve a full IC day's travel by floating Elven train each way, and a five IC day stay in Vanaheim proper. They will be met with a large banquet in the castle courtyard, ushered to large and comfortable rooms in the palace to leave their things and rest in, and given a comfortable spending allowance for any sort of bauble or trinket that they would like to purchase.

SPILL OVER LOG as a continuation of this log in a cleaner space!
[ Aʟʟ ɴɪɢʜᴛs ; Open ]
[ Forgive Kaworu but he didn't choose anything fancy to dress - or different. He doesn't know how to dress, after all; nobody ever taught him. He simply chooses clothes that are equal to what he has always worn. White shirt with an orange undershirt, black pants and white shoes. Always the same.
When he came on this trip, at first he thought only about showing his robot to the Queen and King, but when he was moving to his and Shinji's new apartment back in Asgard, Kaworu remembered the violin Charles (who, sadly, is no longer in this world) has left him. while Kaworu always keeps the presents everyone gives him safe and doesn't use them so he won't ruin them, the angel decided he could show the gods the music he loves so much.
Indeed, he brought the violin. And now that the Travelers are expected to show their talents, Kaworu decides to start exactly with that instrument. And tonight, he plays Bach's Violin Sonata no.1 presto. It's short, but if asked, he won't mind playing something more.
Once he is done, he bows softly. ]
[ Nɪɢʜᴛ 326 : Pɪᴀɴᴏ ]
[ Of course the angel didn't bring a piano along, but he asks if it's possible to bring one to courtyard. Since last night's performance went well, he decides to show another song but this time with another musical instrument.
As soon it's set and Kaworu makes sure it's tuned, he sits in front of the piano, long fingers touching the keys and soon he begins to play.
Beethovens's Symphony no. 9, 4th movement, of course. While this song has greater impact if accompanied by an orchestra, the piano version is just as amazing, in kaworu's opinion. It is his favorite song, after all.
Even if a bit long, too.
When he is done, the angel takes a deep breath and pulls his hands away softly ]
[ Nɪɢʜᴛ 327 : Eʟᴠᴇɴ Rᴏʙᴏᴛ ]
[ Kaworu's robot had barely fit inside the train, but in the end he managed.
The robot is actually an Elven Robot imbued with runic magic into its parts, capable of using water as fuel. Elven machines are all steam punk, so the robot is primarily composed of clockwork and wood, with several metal plates covering important wooden areas. The robot is twelve feet tall, humanoid shaped, and can fit just one person inside (but if you squeeze really tight, you can get inside the cockpit).
While the magic that allows it to use magic as fuel, the actual tech itself does not use magic offensively or defensively - so Kaworu uses punches and kicks to fight while he is still working on getting a weapon. this is what the angel will be showing tonight: fighting movements, poses and overall showing the gods that he can control the robot quite easily (showing off, right?). ]
[ Oᴛʜᴇʀ Nɪɢʜᴛs ]
[ For the other nights, Kaworu will simply watch and listen and be amazed at everything and everyone. He has never been to a banquets or anything like showing off their abilities to others. This is all incredibly new to him and this is all incredibly amazing as well.
And everything brings a warm smile to his lips.
After all, he whom loves Lilim so much, is now watching them showing exactly why they are so amazing. The things they do, the things they know, what they create and what they say, what they have seen and how they have grown.
They are amazing. ]
