Summary

During the summer of 2019, Avian and Totoro went on vacation to explore a remote village. The small town was a friendly little place, but it seems recently they'd been having some trouble with pranksters damaging the door of their new barn. However, as CS players investigated more deeply, they discovered that things weren't as they seemed; the village was actually sitting on a portal to a magical fairy realm! After accessing the portal and talking to the fairies, CS players learned that it was actually the fae who had been tampering with the barn. The new structure was blocking the fairies' path to their dancing circle, but the townsfolk were completely unaware since they couldn't see the fairies! Th players of CS quickly explained the situation to the town and cast a spell to help them see the fae who'd been ignored for so long. Feeling bad, the townsfolk made sure to keep the barn door open from then on. Now the fairies can dance again, the barn is no longer being damaged, and both the village and the fairies live in peace!

Characters (NPCs)

Both the village and the fairy realm were host to a number of lovable characters that helped players through the event. Not only did they provide valuable insight to the town. These characters were created by staff to help progress the event, and distribute the event pets and items to players. The NPCs would give out the new event pets and items throughout the event. Some required players to trade in tokens to claim their prizes, while other stations were free. As the event progressed, more trade ins and characters were introduced each day, as the story was gradually revealed.

The Village

Griseldi

Griseldi was a town NPC who could be found both in Griseldi's Home and Griseldi's Fortune Telling (where she holds a magic ball). She runs a Fortune Telling business next to her home; she has access to magic and knowledge of the fae realm (though she seems reluctant to return there). Griseldi's design was originally released in Halloween 2018.

Gernot

This soft spoken deer could be found at Gernot's home. He often made gifts for the other village NPCs, but ended up being ignored in some way or another, leading him to gifting his creations to the players instead. Without any knowledge of the fae, he was sometimes the victim of the fairies' pranks. Gernot's design came from a pet released in November 2018.

Gerlind

Gerlind is a horse that could be found inside Gerlind's Home. She is a caretaker for the village, looking after many pets. She also would frequently help the town's woodcarver, Karlmann, by taking care of his pets, assisting with meals, and attempting to protect the barn. Gerlind's design originally came from a litter released in October 2018.

Woodcarver Karlmann

Karlmann is the village's woodcarver, and could be found working next to his barn in the Woodcarver building. He's very focussed on his artwork and has little attention for other things, though he had recently taken the time to construct the barn next-door. He wrote angry notes and taped them to the barn door in response to the vandalism. Karlmann's design was released in January 2019.

Notker

This shady businessman, named Notker, lurked outside of the Village at the rock next to the mushroom circle. He talks about the fae and shows the players how to access the fae realm, later revealing that he too is part fairy (at which point his design changes). He was banned from the fae realms, so now he does business near the village instead. Notker's design came from Halloween 2014.

The Fae Realm

Alwara

Alwara is a chatty fairy who resides in Alwara's Burrow. At first she comes off as a bit rude, but she quickly warms up to the players as they try to help her and the other fairies. She enjoys making dresses and gifting them to her new friends. Alwara's design came from a pet released in September 2013.

Freke

Freke is a shy fairy who could be found inside Freke's Burrow. She has many friends and relatives across the region. Freke's design was released in July 2010.

Ivar	Ivar could be found with his collection of items inside Ivar's Burrow. He is very curious about the townsfolk, and collects their items to try and study them. He isn'e very accurate about it, but he enjoys himself all the same. Ivar's design came from a litter of 2013 store pets.

Levke

Levke, found in Levke's burrow, was less friendly than most of the fairies, but ended up befriending the players anyway at Alwara's insistence. She runs a foster program, which takes most of her time and attention. Levke's design came from Easter 2013.
