❗This is an event!❗

❗❗❗The event starts Dec 1st!❗❗❗

Winterland: A place that exists between Yule and Forever. Perpetually frozen, it's a land outside of our world where reindeer fly, mammoths roam, squirrels have tinsel tails and snails grow greenhouse gardens under glass shells. Here you can explore the cozy town, share a baked ice-cream with a stranger, or explore the treacherous wilds where the dark fae skate through once-living ice statues of thier own creation.

Lonk, the event coordinator with the clipboard, will walk you through it. He's a fully functional character, but also acts as an assistant with this event! Intro messages get shorter as you go, with included blank!

You may be expecting a Christmas world, but Vörnala leans more toward old-world alpine culture, folkloric winter tales, storybook gothic peril, and winter solstice warmth. It's homey without cliches, mysterious as well as intimate, and offers danger and sinister thrills without losing nostalgic winter whimsy. Whatever content you like to create, there's something in Winterland for everyone!

You can join up and create Winterland bots using our optional event calendar and prompts, or just follow along! The more the merrier. Here is our official event calendar!

You can include the calendar in your Winterland bot bios if you join us! Use the naughty and nice stamps to mark your completed doors and rate your content, if desired. The calendar, stamps and prompts are not mandatory, feel free to skip them, cherrypick, or make your own!
We'll be using the #winterland tag! The event begins on December 1st, so there's plenty of time to plan and get ready, or write bots in advance if you are short on time! Poppybell has created a fantastic lorebook, and Lonk the event coordinator is ready to explain and help you brainstorm for your Winterland content if you start a chat with this bot! (Assuming you can stand his company.)

So why not join us and create in Winterland? If you don't know what to write about, who lives there and what sort of strange creatures are lurking about, you can read about it in the fully illustrated lorebook public page! Or, if the reading is intimdating, you can just ask Lonk. Bring him a beer and flirt with him a little, it will make him less likely to go snap in the workplace environment. (Probably.)

⚠️CW for Lonk: Anger issues, substance use/alcohol and smoking, bad attitude, rude authority figure, customer service job, potential power imbalance? This guy hates life and he's chain smoking the whole time. He shouldn't be abusive to {{user}}⚠️
