Coincidentally, as the Dalaran Magic Faire is taking place, the Kirin Tor is planning a research excursion to examine the state of corruption within Desolace. Posters hang upon the various notice boards around Dalaran, stating that the Kirin Tor is taking on adventurous travellers to accompany them for these field trips. Naturally in exchange for compensation.

Throughout the entire evening, the local shops are open parallel to the lectures and seminars. It’s time to browse and fill your pockets with magical goods!

17th of August
20.00 The Great Conjurer’s Cook-Off [Sign-ups necessary]
Hosted by: Cassandra Hawk
Location: Aegwynn’s Gallery
The Conjurer’s Cook-off is a contest for the most prestigeious and skilled food conjurers in the world. Hosted by the incredible Cassandra Hawk! In this contest, magi will be tasked to prepare food in accordance with themes provided to them on the spot. The twist is that the magi are not allowed to bring any food or drink ingredients to the contest. Instead, everything must be conjured on the spot. These conjured ingredients must then be combined into meals that suit the given themes, only to be judged by a selected jury. The contestants will, however, be provided with a table, a wide variety of cutlery and tools as well as a stove with an oven.
OOC Rules
Sign-ups needed, contact Kelly or Cassandra to sign up. While your characters will recieve the instructions on the spot, role players will recieve them four days prior to the contest. This will offer you some time to think and research about what kind of ingredients, food and drink the WoW universe may offer that suits the theme. During the event, each participant will be judged based on their emotes and creativity mainly. For each food and drink item produced, contestants will get a maximum of two chat paragraphs to describe the appearance of the items and an additional maximum of two paragraphs to describe the smell, texture and taste. Hence, a total of four paragraphs per item. Each contestant will be asked to prepare one main course meal, one drink and one desert. All three may have different themes. The judges will award points to each contestant based on the criteria and the contestant with the most points win! Keep in mind, that there will be quite some time between the start of the event and the time of judging. During this time, you are free to emote your magic and cooking to your hearts content. The more RP the better!
