Expedition: March 2025
March 15 - 17, 2025 | Valkyrie RanchEvent Overview
Please note: Full Expedition details will be released closer to the event. Below is a general overview of the event.
Hynafol Expeditions are immersive weekend adventures, where players dive deep into a world of medieval fantasy, camaraderie, and competition. Held across various locations, these events are designed for both seasoned participants and new adventurers. Each Expedition follows a thrilling and strategic flow, blending epic daytime battles with rich evening roleplay activities.
Daytime Battles:
Throughout Saturday, Guilds and Kingdoms form alliances and engage in various combat scenarios, each battling against a powerful opposing force. These large-scale battles test the mettle of every warrior, archer, and tactician as players fight for territory, resources, and glory. Whether defending a fortress, raiding caravans, or engaging in skirmishes, the day is packed with action and adventure.
Evening Roleplay Events:
As the sun sets, the battlefield transforms into a realm of intrigue, diplomacy, and mystery. Players shift from combat to deep roleplay as auctions, trials, and ceremonies unfold. Treasures, artifacts, and rare items are bid upon at auctions, while trials test the honor and cunning of those accused. Quests and ceremonies offer further chances to impact the story, and bazaars spring to life, where merchants and craftsmen trade valuable goods.
Each Expedition offers a full day of immersive experience, where both combat prowess and roleplay skills are crucial to success. In Hynafol, every battle won or deal struck shapes the future of the Known World. Will you rise to the challenge?
The Scenario:
In each Hynafol Expedition, players are thrust into a high-stakes scenario where their Guild or Kingdom must fight for survival, resources, and territory in the ever-shifting Known World. Throughout the day, squads face off in fierce battles, with every victory bringing new opportunities to claim land, treasure, and glory. As evening falls, the battlefield gives way to roleplay events, where strategic alliances are forged or broken, and the fate of many is decided through auctions, trials, and quests. Each Expedition weaves a unique narrative where valor, cunning, and ambition determine the course of history.
Three Crowns Counting House & Carta Arcanum:
Throughout the event The Three Crowns Counting House will be open and available for transactions, purchases and actions taken in the Carta Arcanum. Full schedule forthcoming in the game document.
Combat Instruction:
Combat Instruction is required for all attendees. A review of the safety, rules and general strategies of combat at Hynafol will be given during this time.
New Players!
New Players are welcomed and encouraged to join us for our Expeditions. If you have never been to a Hynafol event before please join us and we will gladly welcome you into our community, show you the ropes, teach you how to battle and get you acquainted with the game!
A Note on Decorum Procedures during the event:
The world of Hynafol is only brought to life and made magical by the full participation and investment of each attendee. Therefore, all participants will be required to dress, act, and live as though in a medieval fantasy setting. Everyone in attendance must be in medieval clothing for the entirety of the event. A basic rule of thumb: if it looks or sounds like it’s from the modern world – it isn’t allowed!
