Full Moon’s Ball
Come and join us for the Full Moon’s Ball being held on April 18th at 8 PM EST. The event will be held in the great city of Umbra, at the Necromantic Amphitheatre (of course!).
What will happen? Will the werewolves be able to keep their control and composure, or will the power of the moon be too much to be held back?!? Will the older, genetically advanced Lycans fight the rogue shapeshifters wolves and reveal their true natures for all to see? Or will they remain hidden among the shadows to keep their identities a secret per the Traditions they’ve sworn to uphold? Or perhaps it will just be a pleasant evening for all to enjoy and no one will have to ruin their tux?
You will have to come to find out…
(This is a Role Playing event, so we ask that you come in character.)
St. Patrick’s Day Celebration
Join us on THURSDAY, MARCH 17th, 2011 for a day of celebration in honor of Ireland’s patron saint, St. Patrick. The Bloody Brew will open an hour earlier than usual, at 8 PM EST to allow everyone to come join us in a toast to Ole St. Pat! The Brew will be serving a wide variety of home-made and imported wines, liquors, ales, and brews. All visitors will drink FREE!!!
In honor of this great day, we ask that all guests come don their GREEN! This event is open to ALL players of the Catskills shard, regardless of play style.
A Lover’s Dance
I am excited to announce the up and coming “Lover’s Dance” being held in Umbra on Sunday Feb. 13th at 8 PM EST to honor Valentine’s Day. We’re making it a night early to be able to give folks a chance to enjoy an in game event without overstepping the real life event. 🙂
The following prizes will be given out to couples that join us and CoD members will do the judging in each category…
Best Dressed Couple — 100,000 gold.
Best Rehearsed Couple’s Dance — 500,000 gold.
Best Lover’s Poem — 25,000 gold.
Best Rehearsed Couple’s Dance is actually quite difficult to do and takes a lot of practice. So you and your partner must practice!!! The dance must be a coordinated step dance, where the two of you execute the same steps in unison. The best execution with the least mistakes wins!
Best Dressed Couple will be awarded at the end of the night. Each couple will have a screen shot taken that will then be featured on UO Stratics, Catskills section.
Poems must be submitted in a “red leafed book” (sealed) to us at our Trade Center, no later than Saturday before MIDNIGHT!!! The winning poems will be selected and then you will be called to the podium to recite them for your loved one, so keep a copy handy.
We will see you there!
Proclamation Posted: New Years’ Grand Ball
Market Day at the Trade Center, 11/20 @ 2 PM EST
Hello everyone please join us on November 22nd, at 2 PM EST as we host our first Market Day at our new Trade Center in Umbra — yes practically IN Umbra. We will host this event every month on the third Saturday of the month. Merchants of the best skills will be on hand to provide almost anything you need.
Market Day is a special day that allows folks to interact with LIVE vendors, much like the olden days when folks would place their orders with the smiths that sat in front of the Hammer and Anvil in Britain. The concept is that we will take your orders, provided you come with your own materials (we will have some materials on hand, like iron ingots and wooden boards, but none of the specialty items), and fill them right there. Our merchants will be all LGM of their crafts (GM for some skills that do not have 100+ capabilities) and should be able to work with you to provide you whatever you need. You can come get your armor crafted, turn right around and get it imbued… you could order a woodworker to create for you a new living room for your house, or add that new add-on… you can get your ships’ goods made and finally equip it with those cannons you’ve been seeking… or perhaps you need a jeweler that can crank you out a new Pendant of the Magi… maybe you are seeking for really rare items to buy… or even something as simple as you need to replenish your recall charges on your runebooks… whatever your needs we will try our best to fill them.
Merchants, if you are interested in providing your services, please contact me at either ICQ 608083009 or email pandora@childrenofdarkness.com — you can “rent a booth” at the market place, bring your BEST crafter (the one with the most recipes learned) or your BEST wares to sell, decorate your booth as you like, and even set up a 24 hr “assistant” (temporary vendor) to help you. The best decorated booth wins 100,000 gold courtesy of the Children of Darkness.
See you all there!

PLEASE NOTE:
Not everyone that stops by on this day will be an RP’er, keep that in mind. We will do our best to stay in character (I’d prefer RP’er merchants if possible) for this event, but it is open to all.
Comedy Night, Friday 10/22 at 8 PM EST
Hello everyone!
CoD is once again hosting Comedy Night at our nightclub, the Vampire Lounge this Friday, Oct. 22nd at 8 PM EST. We invite all Catskills’ players to join us, no matter what play style you enjoy. We have a beautiful stage, fully equipped, just waiting for you guys to take it so you can make us all laugh! If you’d like to tell your jokes, please let CoD members know to get on the list of sets for the night. We’ll also be giving away gold and prizes for the best jokes of the night.
The Vampire Lounge is located in our city, Vamp’s Lair, in Malas. The coordinates are 32N, 2E. We occupy the old abandoned Orc Fort right off the road that connects Luna and Umbra, after the mountain pass.
We hope to see you guys all there!

Kindred Unity
The sun had just come down and I stood in front of my bed, where Marius still laid on the other side. On my side of the bed laid several outfits.
I, looking from one outfit to another, looked up at Marius, “Which one do you think?” Marius dropped the papers he was skimming through, looked at me and said, “Honestly darling, its a market… at Red Skull Bay no doubt… I do not believe anyone is going to bother to take notice.” I put my hands on my hips and exclaimed, “Hmph…” I picked the black lace and silk dress with red velvet trim and walked towards the wash room to change. Marius continued his reading. When I came out just a few minutes later, Marius put his reading aside, stood up from the bed and walked over to me as I was looking in the dresser mirror. He bent down next to my chair, sitting on the back of his heels and wrapped his arms around my waist. With his right hand, he ran his fingers through the back of my neck, separating my hair from the pale, stiff skin. At his touch, I froze in place looking at him through the mirror.
Umbra Hosts a Black Tie Gala to Benefit Rebuild Efforts
We have been cordially invited to attend the Black Tie Gala of Umbra this year being held at the Necromantic Ampitheatre on Saturday August 14th at 8 o’clock in the evening. The Gala is being held to raise funds for the rebuilding efforts that are going on in the city, and specially to help reinforce the portals that hold the evils of Bedlam at bay. Captain Kalmar Erikkson will be speaking alongside our dear friend Jonas Callahan, who heads the Trade and Commerce Commission for Umbra which was recently reestablished.
Capt. Erikkson has requested our presence, as well as the presence of the Guard, in an effort to increase security and safety of the citizens that will come from all over the lands of Sosaria. It is rumoured that the Queen herself might come; which of course will be a gracious gesture seeing as how Umbra is mostly inhabited by pale skins. So come on and enjoy!
(We urge all our members to be in full ceremonial colors (black/shadow, dark red, and luna white) and in character.)
The Vampire Lounge Hosts Comedy Night With Great Success
Laughs, smiles, and good energy were the order of the night for Comedy Night at Vamp’s Lair’s premier nightclub, the Vampire Lounge. Gates were magically placed allowing visitors from Luna and Britain to easily access. Soon the guests took their chair and the lights dimmed as the stage lit up. The jokes starting to pour out…
This is the photo album from that night. Be sure to join us next month for more social events at Vamp’s Lair and Umbra.
