The Festival of Frost is a free festival held in Wehnimer's Landing, hosted by the halfling Tolby. It consists of a few shops, games, and other social gathering places. The grounds are available for any group to use for events.

The 7th Annual Festival of Frost, hosted by the halfling, Tolby, has returned to Wehnimer's Landing! You can access the winter grounds via the candle-lit path outside of the Thrak's Inn! The festival will be open until shortly after the New Year, but there will be no merchant activity. But the grounds are open to all, so feel free to enjoy everything it has to offer, or host your own events within!

Activities

In addition to a small amount of shopping opportunties, the Festival of Frost offers a variety of winter-themed activities.

  • Solstice Tree: At the entrance of the grounds, is a solstice tree! Feel free to grab an ornament, or two, or three, and find out what is inside!
  • Ice Skating: There is an ice skating arena, with a cart right outside of it that sells ice skates of various styles! While in the arena, you can either skate solo or with a partner.
  • Bonfire: Like the snow, but not the cold? There's a giant bonfire and log seating with your name on it!
  • Snowball Fights: Look for the snowy field with a mound of snow and enjoy an good ole snowball fight! No defensive spells needed!
  • Slush Hill: Go check out the new Slush Hill, where you and your friends can ROLL to build a SNOWMAN! You can make animals, monsters, races, or birds! Of course, you can only make one snowman at a time, and it takes one hour to melt before you can do it again. Once your project is finished, feel free to LEAN on it or TOUCH it!
  • Warm Treats: There are plenty of warm drinks and treats available inside a tent on the grounds. Free of charge!
  • Warm Clothing: There is warm clothing available inside of a shop on the grounds, so bring some silvers and keep yourself covered!

Previous runs of the Festival of Frost also included mini-games, which cost silvers to play and offered a variety of simple prizes. Mini-games were retired for the 2017 run.

  • Snowflake Stable: Grab a floating paper snowflake out of a gnomish booth! What prize will you get in exchange?
  • Arctic Clash: Dig through a snow-covered battlefield, finding old items from wars long gone! What prize will you get in exchange?
  • Catch a Cold Cod: Break a spot on the frozen pond and try to snatch a colorful fish! What prize will you get in exchange?
