| − | If you need anymore reasons why to attend Fury of the Northlands (and honestly you don't) we will be unveiling activities and battlegames throughout the summer, and so I'm going to be starting now with....
| + | Fury of the Northlands, often called '''Fury''', was originally a local event for players unable to travel the large distances for [[Great Eastern]], but has since also become the [[coronation]] for [[Goldenvale]]. It is held on Labor Day weekend every year. |

| − | THE IRON QUEST CHALLENGE! *cue applause*
| + | [[category:Local Events]] |

| − | That's right boys and girls Iron Quest is back and will be bigger and better than last year. If you don't know what Iron Quest is well it's like this. Take a team of Amtgarders, give them a challenge of making a part of a quest within a certain time frame and have it be quested through a panel of judges trying to create the best scenario amongst all the competitors. Sounds easy don't it? Well the trick is we make things interesting for you, the judges will be giving the captain of each team certain guidelines they have to follow. Last year we decided to be nice and made the guidelines pretty simple, the theme was Restless Spirits and each team had that and a random questing area on the Fury site to work with. This year however the kiddy gloves are off! Time limits will be strictly enforced (I'm looking at you Katie), and the guidelines will be more challenging.

| − | We are only having a set amount of teams this year with last years winners Team SCIENCE!, led by Wolvenfang's Cy of the Shadows, getting an automatic spot as defending champion. Can anyone topple this questing juggernaut in the ultimate quest making challenge? Time will tell....

| − | CABIN AUCTION!
| |
| − | One of the great things about the Fury of the Northlands site is that fact we have access to about 10 cabins (some with electricity) that people could sleep in to get out of the rain and not have to worry about packing along tents. Last year they were on a first come/first serve basis. Well this year we are going to be auctioning off one of the cabin WITH working electricity that will be reserved for the winning bidder and 7 of their guests for the entire weekend. So no need to try and rush down to the site to get a cabin. Details as to when the auction will take place will be coming soon.

| − | THE TAR AND FEATHERING OF SIR SANCHEZ!

| − | Start saving your pennies because you read that right. Sir Sanchez, GV Sword Knight, Co-Captian of FRAT, Scourge of the Ditch Field, Stabber of Kidneys (that was a joke....) has offered to auction to someone the oppurtunity to tar and feather him (with GV approved materials, we want him humiliated not dead). Just imagine the glory, the pictures, the You Tube videos all can be yours at this years Fury!

| − | The event long gate fee will be $30.00 for all 4 days, same as last year. HOWEVER!

| − | THE SHAMELESSLY STEALING FROM CY MIDNIGHT QUEST AUCTION!
| |
| − | That's right! Tomahomie has offered to run a midnight quest for a select group of questers at this years Fury (and I can say for myself, it's gonna kick ass, I've seen the plans) ala Cy of the Shadows style (of Wolvenfang and White Boar fame). Details are secret and hidden for now but I can tell you this. After Fury's midnight quest, Cy may have to step up his game to out "quest run" Tomahomie. Details regarding the time of the auction will be coming soon.

| − | CABIN AND MIDNIGHT QUEST AUCTION DETAILS
| |
| − | Myself and Miaka will be running both auctions on Friday night Aug 22nd at 9:30pm (after I get home from work)over MSN instant messenger and if you'd like to be involved and cannot be reached by that IM please feel free to send me a pm with a phone number where you can be reached at that time so we can work things out.

| − | If you can't make it that day what I will be willing to do is take a max bid amount that you would be willing to pay and if someone makes a bid and it is still within your maximum bid, I will increase their bid only by a dollar until you win, or get out bid by another party. So for example, if someone sends me a max bid of $200.00 for Tomahome's midnight quest and the highest bid is $135.00, I'll have your bid at $136.00 and if you were to win, you would only owe the $136.00 not the $200.00 max. Any questions feel free to ask.
