Carnaval de la Lumière

While you (and your characters) slept, the entire encampment has been transported to the Carnevale di Venezia. Venice, 1774. The Carnaval has been booked in the main plaza and will remain there through March 4 (Mardi Gras, Fat Tuesday). It's an exciting time to be in Venice; some forty thousand people have crowded into the city on the canals for a last celebration before Lent. Everyone wears masks and costumes.

The plaza will be full of people eager to see all that Carnaval has to offer. Feel free to interact with NPC Venetians or travelers from all across Europe. Be wary though, not only is the 18th century notoriously lacking in hygienic standards, but Venice, apart from the wonders in art and architecture, is also well known for high rank prostitution. Also beware, one of the most popular costumes for the locals is a transvestite: adult men dressing as women.
