Journeying through the enchanted forest can be very dangerous, especially while encountering the good and evil spirits that guard it. The evil spirits wish to spread their darkness and corruption to all who enter. The good spirits wish to give light and protection to the forest's living plants and animals that call it home. We must be prepared to appease or defend against both of them!
Task and Instructions
To prepare for our journey, we must create two different sets of jarred elixirs or other magical containers such as potions, phials, fairy jars, snow globes, and terrariums. The first set of jars we'll create will provide us with dark and evil powers. The second set will provide us with light and good powers. Then we'll be ready to confront both good and evil spirits and make our journey through the enchanted forest!
This is a creative crafting event with two rounds. In the first round you must build an evil elixir and in the second round you must build a good elixir.
- Evil Elixirs: Saturday August 13th - Wednesday August 24th 6:59 PM Fair Time (closed)
- Good Elixirs: Wednesday August 24th - Saturday September 3rd 11:59PM Fair Time *now closed*
Next, pick items to place inside your jar and arrange them as desired. Remember, the elixir must give some sort of evil powers in round 1 and good powers in round 2. What does that mean exactly? Use your imagination and be creative!
Once the solid contents are placed inside your jar, you may fill it with liquid if you're making a liquid elixir. However, this is not required. Create it in a way that you think makes it look best! Just don't drink your elixir, this is all make-believe!
Finally, post a photograph of your elixir with your name card in this thread. Include at least two sentences with your submission post to describe the following: 1) How is it activated? (Drinking, shaking, etc.) 2) What are its effects? (Healing, super strength, ward off spirits, give light, etc.)
