Welcome to The Great Gathering!
A time where kelpies annually converge for about a week to reunite with family and friends, learn new hunting skills, trade goods and services, and most importantly fatten up for the oncoming cold times!
All of you are invited to interact in the festivities! Be it your own stories, art, or characters in the setting! There’s many activities for you to take part in, such as:
Character introductions!
New kelpies or mummahs that wanna show off their progeny may find an elevated rock or fallen tree to stand on to introduce themselves/each other! Young kelpies that have recently succeeded in their first solo hunt may even show off proof of their achievements!
Story Telling
Kelpies have traveled from all over, meaning they often have all sorts of interesting stories to tell each other! Sometimes, they might even learn important lessons about hunting, survival, or finding love from these different tales!
Playing Games
Kelpies love playing games like any other fluffy, and there’s plenty of overlap for the type of games they play! From huggie/munstah tag to stacking rocks, kelpies have plenty of game options. Though with such a large group of mares in one place, there’s most certainly going to be a number of stray stallions taking interest in the commotion and giving unwanted attention.
Thus the kelpies have developed their own games to throw those would-be studs for a loop! Sometimes it’s just a lot of fun playing pretend and winning/losing a bet! If you’re lucky, you’ll get a meal out of it!
Not feeling up to the hustle and bustle of the crowd? Prefer some quiet down time? Do you got something you wanna trade but dunno where to spend it? No worries! Just head over to
The Stoner Circle
@Poopiest_of_bebbehs Shroom has a whole host of Magic Mushrooms that you can take a lick of for the right price! You can even bring your own substances to share! All in all, the Stoner Circle is just a good place to vibe.
Has your kelpie been injured or gotten sick during their play or while on their journey to the gathering? Well no worries! Just head over to Shroom’s sister, Spore, to get looked after!
The Medicine Mare
Some kelpies take an interest in more medicinal plants and fungi, making them become a bit of a witch doctor (or more like that one aunt who’s super into holistic remedies) in fluffy terms. While Spore might think she’s performing healing magic, what she’s really doing is sprinkling penicillin mold on your sick kid and shoving shiitake mushrooms in their mouth hoping that’ll fix the issue in a few bright times. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.
Either way, she’s always looking to teach others her ‘Magic’ and trade in supplies!
Hunting/Scavenging
The most important part and main goal for the kelpies during this event! Stocking up on calories is key to survive through the cold times, and there’s of nummie fluffies to go around! It’s also important in teaching the younger generations how to catch their prey in ways their own experiences haven’t taught them.
When it comes to catching prey as volatile as salmon fluffies, sometimes team work is the safest way to do it! Even then, one slip up and you’re as good as dead! Otherwise, you just have to wait for a borderline dead salmon fluff to be pushed towards the shore by the current, but who has time for that when you’re competing with all the other predators in the area?!
There’s tons of different themes you can explore with kelpies, be it family dynamics, coming of age scenarios, tragic demises, and so much more! So feel free to experiment!
Thanks to everyone who participates in this event! I look forward to seeing what you create!
