Event details

Don your masks and join us in a masquerade to celebrate the beginning the dark half of the year. 

The gentles of Lyndhaven welcome travellers from far and wide.  The familiar and most importantly the new.
Bring a dish to help us create an autumn feast filled with joy and laughter, as we gather to welcome new faces to our society.  To guide and teach them the basics of our society.  To help them create garb and heraldry.  Partake in lessons on the scribal arts.  Perhaps even to learn to dance, or to watch our fencers display their prowess. 

To end the evening, as a special entertainment we present a bardic challenge.  Bring us your tales of fright.  A special prize shall be awarded to the gentle soul best able to make the audience quake.
