The Fowl Fashion Feastday festival is a free festival aboard the Flotilla in celebration of the local holiday.
Join Pirate Queen Kyncera and numerous pirates (ahem, privateers) aboard the Great Piratical Flotilla for a weekend of fun and fowl fashion!
On the evening of 31 Koaratos, the Pirate Queen herself will welcome everyone to the festivities. While a more detailed schedule will be announced, mark your calendars and book your passage, so you do not miss this event. On Feastday, the flotilla holds its annual Fowl Fashion Feastday, and everyone is invited to watch the parade of entries.
There will be numerous ships docked with wares, merchants providing services, and other activities. Bring your silver, because the flotilla has Dragonbones and the Conquest Wheel too!
The celebration of Fowl Fashion Feastday will run from the evening of 31 Koaratos until mid-afternoon on 2 Phoenatos.

Feast Fowl Fashion - A Piratical Holiday
- Name of Holiday/Celebration: Fowl Fashion Feastday
- Date of Holiday/Celebration: The first Feastday of Phoenatos
- Who celebrates it: The flotilla and its inhabitants
- Where it is celebrated: The Great Piratical Flotilla, near Ta'Nalfein
- A short description of the holiday: This exercise in absurdity involves dressing birds, typically ducks, in high fashion and parading them around the decks of the flotilla to be voted upon. Afterwards, the flotilla celebrates by, unsurprisingly, overindulging in drink and food. The winning duck gets to sit upon the Flotsam Throne during the feast, and a cabin boy is tasked with keeping the duck happy for the day.
- The origin of this ridiculous day started decades ago when a Nalfein student was rejected for apprenticeships and denied the opportunity to participate in Nalfein annual fashion traditions. The student left for the sea, joining a privateer with a penchant for fashion. The student was able to exercise her unique stylings upon the captain and crew, and the vessel became known for its outlandishly elaborate dress. The now-privateer/pirate collected a variety of ducks from the holds one day while docked at the flotilla, about the time of the annual Nalfein tradition of dressing up the pergolas was to occur, and instead, dressed up the ducks and paraded them about, much to the delight of the rest of the flotilla.
- The rest is, as they say, history. The flotilla's contained chaos was the perfect setting for this, and each year, ships dock at the flotilla carrying ducks to dress. The Nalfein continues to make a living dressing pirates and privateers, and she often comes to judge the contest she started. Initially, releasing the ducks fully clothed upon the streets of Ta'Nalfein was attempted (the pirate was still bitter), but the potential for harm to come to the feathered fashionistas quickly stopped this practice as no one wished foul play upon their fowl.
- Pandemonium has frequently ensued at these events, most notably the geese debacle of 5100 and the seagull spectacle of 5081. Ducks, for some reason, are much more tractable to being dressed up than other birds and attempts to use other fowl have resulted mostly in regrets, bleeding, and a lot of swabbing of the decks. One pirate captain tried entering his pet macaw a few years ago, and many pirates learned several new swear phrases (from both captain and parrot) when the attempt to put it in a jacket and ascot failed.
