A Harvest Dance is a live-action roleplaying event in which all participants will be part of a mystical society of Fae that gather from different cultural regions in a traditional celebration of the unreal, the absurd, the beautiful and the terrifying. Fae society is not human and the concept of gender is bewildering and strange to them, therefore all characters will be written and played without gender. It is an event that focuses on exploring European folklore and human beliefs up to the middle of the 19th century - and the shift that humanity experiences in these times. A shift from blind superstition to questioning, from story to fact, at the wake of science and a strive for knowledge - and the impact it has on the creatures behind the legends and tales that are slowly being replaced. At A Harvest Dance, different Fae kin assemble to channel human faith and amazement for the unknown to revive their might and existence for another 12 generations, as it has been done since the dawn of time. With humankind struggling their way out of superstition's grip, the Fae folk must find a way to restore their influence - or cease to exist. For sense and reason are what ends the magic of stories and with it, the era of the Fae.
