You may purchase this once. Cottington Staff will create an In-Game Story, Song, Poem, or Artwork that will be related in some way to your character's backstory. This is not necessarily about your character directly; it may be related to their past or their ancestors; to a goal of theirs; to a plot point not yet revealed; or related to a place they've lived or been, or even a folk or fairytale of the place they grew up. This is not a Plotline, nor is a guarantee of any future or related plot, but is instead an in-game artifact that will become part of the in-game lore. You may choose to specify the type of item (artwork, story, poem, song, crafted item, etc), or leave it up to staff. This will be delivered before the April 2022 event.

Influence and the Merchant Board


Influence Token for the Merchant Board (at the Community Day) - $5 per token

In Cottington Woods, there's a magical board known as "The Merchant Board." Tiles appear on the board indicating places, people, and forces of influence / power / importance in the Written World. Tokens may be placed on this board to indicate you wish to influence in some manner something in the world.

You may purchase Influence Tokens and place these anywhere on the board (please see the #merchant-board channel on the discord server or click here to view the merchant board as it appears for the Community Day)

What this influence does exactly is for you to discover. But for this Fundraiser Day, this influence placed will help us understand what YOU might be interested in and it will certainly influence some of the stories we tell in the first Cottington Woods even in April.
