7.19 July Pre-Game Hype
As the summer sun is strong overhead, the forests seem to be dancing in the light. The fires burn brightly. The faces that seem to pop up in both just slightly unnerving. The rumors surrounding Ilveresh and the dealings that they make with the supernatural have been resurfacing throughout the kingdom. And there seems to be growing struggles of the common folk both within and out of its borders against both knights and nobles alike. Will those that feel scorned arise to the occasion or will they attempt to squash any resistance?
And the dust of Fenrest continues to settle with little to no interactions from the Mer. Have they been beaten, or are they just lying in wait?
Find out all this and more during the next event, July 22-24 at 10418 Plank Rd, Milan, MI 48160.

7.17 - Monthly Econ Update
It's that time already for the monthly update from Econ. The Econ team has finished this month's submissions for the tag turn in. We thank you all for turning in when we requested. For the month of July we are requesting all players with LAST names starting with M, N, O, P and Q, to please prepare for turn in.
Please take photos of your tags prior to turn in for your records. You may turn in your tags at anytime the Econ is on duty and may use your photos as proof of your tags during game time to speed up the process of turn in.
We are also requesting to players who have missed their tag turn in date to please turn them in at the next event attended excluding RPO events. We are trying to avoid a mass build up of tags turned in at the end of the season. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding in the matter.
We would also like to remind the player base to please use the item creation form to submit their pink temporary tags with their sign outs at the end of the events.
Temporary tags do have an expiration date for submission written on them for the following month. We are encouraging players to please be mindful of that and submit them in a timely fashion. We do understand this is a new practice that will take some transition time which we will be accommodating for this season.
Here is the link to the item creation form found on the Kanar website.
Please reach out to Econ at econ@kanar.club for further questions and inquiries.
We look forward to seeing you all in Ilveresh.
Kind Regards,
The Econ Team

7.16 - Map Manager Position Open
The Game operation staff is in need of a map manager and we're reaching out to the players for interested candidates! As the story of the game continues to grow beyond Ilvaresh, we need to improve the resources available to the players for their adventures. The map manager will be responsible for maintaining and formatting all current and future maps, including updates to names, places, and political boundaries as well as occasionally creating adventure-specific maps.
If you're interested, please send an application to gm@kanar.club by July 31st. Discord interviews will be held during the first week of August.
Thank you!

7.13 - Mystic Quill Position Open
Hello players! As many of you know, Rebecca Coleman has assumed the role of Econ 1st on top of being our Mystic Quill editor. Econ is a lot of work and we thank Rebecca for taking on that responsibility, but trying to do both Econ and MQ is a lot to ask when there are many of you that are looking for ways to volunteer. So, Rebecca will be stepping down from the Mystic Quill in September and we’re looking for a new editor to resume her hard work!
If you are interested in becoming our new Mystic Quill Editor, please send an application to GM@kanar.club with your name and a brief summary of applicable skills and/or KGE staff experience. Applications will be accepted until July 31st, after which Discord interviews will be held.

6.30 - 2023 Feast Coordinator
Hello everyone!
I, Tashi, am pleased to announce that I have been appointed the 2023 Winter Feast Coordinator. If you have any suggestions or discussion points you would like to bring up please message me. Additional information such as tournaments, venue, cost, date, vendor sign-up, etc. will be announced through the year as it is finalized and approved.
For those who are not aware Winter Feast is an annual event that happens at the start of February. It is hosted at a different venue than the field and is role play centric in a courtly setting. It's primary purpose (so far as I am concerned) is a chance for the membership to get together during the winter break, enjoy food, tournaments, and generally have a good time.

6.28 - Submitting PM Complaints
Hello fellow members. The Playmaster staff would like to remind everyone that your sign out is not the proper way to file a formal complaint to the PM staff. Any complaints submitted via sign outs will be read and documented but will not be treated as formal complaints. The only method to file a formal complaint is to email PM@Kanar.club or BOD@Kanar.club depending on the nature of the complaint. Thank you all and we hope you had a wonderful event.

6.27 - From the GM Team
The GM team wants to take a moment to discuss the Weeklong event. I know we are all still recovering but we want to reach out and thank people who helped make the event run as well as it did.
Thank you to Christian, Josh, Fox, Rob, Brad, Jenna, Rebecca, Michael, Marcus, Melissa, and Kay for either sitting at the shed and running NPC’s, writing up modules, or running said modules. When the GM team was busy you guys had stepped up and helped us out immensely.
Thank you to everyone who volunteered to NPC as we really could not have done it without you all. You have helped bring more live to our little city and create stories that can last a lifetime. A special shout out to Atrum and Matt who helped run some early morning NPC’s on their own. Thank you to those that helped clean up throughout the week. It is not the most fun, we know, but it keeps our lands nice. Thank you to the other staff that put in their time throughout the week as well. The amount of communication that was had really kept things going smoothly.
And thanks to everyone that attended and participated throughout the week. It was hot, it was muggy, but in the end we feel it was an enjoyable time. We can’t wait to see you all at the next event! Thank you again!
6.26 - Report of Positive Covid Test
Hello all,
A player who attended the weeklong event has reported to Safety that they tested positive for Covid this morning (Sunday June 26th). Please monitor how you are feeling and take a Covid test if you feel you are experiencing symptoms similar to the cold, the flu, or allergies. Thank you all for a low-injury weeklong!
