Early Winter
The atmosphere is festive at this time of year, but there's always the shadow of something a little eerie in the winter months.

Beautiful Berenice: The Latest Holiday Craze
Introduction
It’s all the rage. You’ve heard about it on the news, on the internet, and from friends: the latest Beautiful Berenice doll just dropped and she's taken the holidays by storm. This doll has inspired the usual early-riser “shopper stampede” often seen on Black Friday. Everyone seems to need one, for children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews. Perhaps you even want one for yourself.
Really, it’s nothing out of the ordinary. What's so special about this doll? Perhaps you know, being a collector, or an individual shopping for children, or perhaps this is very baffling. Still, not even the occasional news report about shoppers getting a little too exuberant about acquiring one of these toys raises any red flags.
So, you think nothing of it when you go out to do some holiday shopping at Kingslane City Mall. The mall is crowded, but festive, with that holiday anticipation thick in the air. People are there for the atmosphere just as much as the rush of shopping.
It’s here you finally see what the Beautiful Berenice craze is all about. There are lines of shoppers out the doors of every toy store in the mall. Most who have one seem to be clutching it with an air of possessive nervousness, as if they expect their precious prize to be snatched from their hands at any moment.
It is, perhaps, a little eerie, if you look too long.
But why worry? It’s the holidays and it’s just a normal viral, shopping craze. What could go wrong?
This event will run from today (December 24th) until the end of January and is held in the Kingslane location in the Newton forum.
The encounter itself need not be on December 24th specifically. If a character would go shopping earlier or later for those after-Christmas sales, then that is acceptable. The main requirement to earn a reward is that the encounter is requested and completed by the end of January.
The set up involves encountering a shopper with a Beautiful Berenice doll, either in a crowded area or somewhere more secluded. Note: does not need to be at the start of the thread, take what time you need for the characters to get into the set up. Further details will drop when the encounter is requested.
Have fun, and happy shopping!

December Updates
Well, here we are! The last month of the year. As people may have noticed, it's been slow around here. We apologize for the lack of fall events, but we're sure the hustle and bustle on our end will ease up around the New Year. Happy holidays, everyone!

November Updates
Happy November! Once again, a fairly quiet month on the updates side as fall comes rolling in. We're planning on a small fall event to enjoy, but for now, the renaissance faire remains a fun option for characters to partake in.
Also, we'd love to see more people taking on the Train Station of the Dead, linked below! All you need is to find someone who was in Phase I to participate.
Anyway, hope everyone is enjoying the cooling weather!

October Updates
Happy October! Fall is here and so is the Easthaven Ren Fair! Join the fun and enjoy costumes, mead, and turkey legs. And with October coming up, now's the perfect time to get into some spooky shenanigans with friends (or enemies, if you like).
Lacking any major developments to the system, this is a short and sweet update. Have a good October!

Hotspots
McCoy Orchards
To claim a hotspot, post a thread set in the named location and submit a mod request for a hotspot encounter. A hotspot can only be claimed once, but a new one is dropped when the old one is completed.
This particular hotspot has been a thorn in Easthaven's–and by extension, the Exchange's–side for some time now. Rumours abound of a strange elk-like creature lurking in the shadows of the orchards. It has harassed several people according to the word on the street, and photos are beginning to appear online, claiming it's a new New England cryptid. Most believe it's just a particularly aggressive elk, displaced by development or something of the sort.
