Throughout the day decorations at the castle are being set up. There is an air of business about the place that would seem to energize anyone in the vicinity, though if that's actual magic at work or just the excitement of the Founders is up to debate. A little bit before sundown the founders will invite the rest of the village into the castle for the feast.
The interior very clearly takes after Hogwarts, though on a much smaller scale. It is obvious that a lot of time has been spent in preparation. The main hallway opens up through a huge set of wooden doors into something like the Great Hall, and this is where the feast will take place! There is more than enough room for the entire village. Offshooting from various parts of the Great Hall are side paths which lead to either outside or other parts of the castle -- though we advise against breaking into the Founders' private chambers, thanks!
In the center of the Great Hall is one large table; there are plates and bowls of various breads, fruits, vegetables, meats, and cheeses going from top to bottom. On another table sit pitchers of ale and mead, and regular water for the underage crowd. Snacks are available as well, though the center display is obviously meant to take up the most attention.
There is music playing from within the castle, though it is more of a magical enchantment done on various pieces within the castle itself than spontaneously appearing music. The snack trays will float around from person to person and are a bit pushy, so it might be in your best interest to take a snack or two when it comes around! If you deny them too many times, they will snap at you in old English. The drink pitchers might do this too if they have been sitting idly for too long. The suits of armor will randomly jump out and surprise people who walk by; there is no rhyme or reason to it, so good luck if you're drunk and trying to find the bathroom...
As the evening goes on and everyone eats their fill, the focus turns to entertainment: Shall we have entertainment duels? Or who wants to see their Founder show off his or her magical talent in front of a crowd? Anything can happen! Have fun!
How This Will Work
Players can either thread out what their character(s) did with each other, or just "OOC"ly comment with their character(s)'s name in the comment subject area saying what they wore, what they did, who they would have tried to talk to, etc. It's up to you. Sorry this went up so late. For everyone in the path of Hurricane Sandy, please be safe this weekend, and if you can't get online to respond -- don't worry! This thread will stay open for responses.
