Welcome to La Eventium Protia I Elementum I and Elementum II! Join us for an unforgettable evening filled with magic and wonder at the Hammond Castle Museum. Immerse yourself in the enchanting atmosphere as we showcase the beauty of Elementum I and the power of Elementum II. The event will take place on Sun Oct 06 2024 at 17:00 in the evening. However, you must be there BEFORE then. Don't miss this opportunity to experience a one-of-a-kind event that will leave you mesmerized! The Castle of Lord Hammond, Rumored to have once belonged to a powerful mystical sorcerer known as the Leader who was involved in secret dealings with a shadowy group of spies and hackers, the manor is now the stage for an intense competition. Legends speak of a hidden treasure within its walls—a treasure that is said to be able to unlock untold power or grant its possessor anything their heart desires. But the treasure is well-guarded by layers of magical wards and coded traps, making it nearly impossible to find. To uncover this treasure, two distinct groups have been called to the manor: The Wizards and The Masqueraders. Both groups have long histories tied to the manor’s legacy—one rooted in magic, the other in espionage and subterfuge. They must now face off in a series of challenges that blend both their unique skills. OUTFITS FOR THE EVENT. The competition will split into two divisions: The Wizards (from Houses Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Slytherin, and Ravenclaw, wear something related to the dark arts and wizardry)The Masqueraders (disguised spies, hackers, and infiltrators, which will wear something elegant/promenade related, along with various sinister masks)Each group consists of 50 to 125 representatives, who will form five teams in their respective divisions. These teams must work together to navigate the labyrinthine halls of this Ancient Castle solving riddles, disarming traps, and facing off against the rival division. All the while, they will search for clues leading to the manor’s ultimate GIFT. Information Source: P.S Latin I @IntellectualOrthodox | eventbrite
