The one, the only, BIG PAN ENERGY @calriadawnbrook​ !

Calria Dawnbrook is offering free sketches for charity. Sit and pose for her for fifteen or so minutes and she'll draw a beautiful portrait of your character.

Cool! How does my character participate? Come to Calria's booth when it is open and take a seat! If there is someone in front of you, please wait your turn. Emote your character taking a seat when instructed and emote how they are posed and what expression they have. If you'd like, I'm happy to draw your character with a LGBTQ+ flag they best identify with, just let me know prior.

Right on! Any In-Character rules? IC will be treated IC. If your character is rude and unbecoming, Calria will call for your removal and you will not be able to participate. Please be kind!

Yeah, I get that. What about OOC rules? 1. First come, first served basis. 2. If you have already received a portrait from me at events beforehand (on any character), please consider others before getting in line. I can only get through 8 - 12 portraits. 3. These portraits are free but the artist is kindly asking if you want to tip or pay, please donate to the charity instead. She would greatly appreciate it! 4. Please be respectful. If you are disrespectful OOC, I have every right to turn you away. I'm sorry! 5. Each portrait takes approximately 15-20 minutes to complete. These are drawn off your character model In-Game. If you have a reference you want to send me to draw from, you have to have it ready to send me immediately. I have to move quickly! 6. Because these are such quick drawings, please note these are not detailed. I will not be making any changes. I am not picasso :c 7. If the line gets too long, the artist may cap it early. I'm sorry!

Right on, man! When will this booth be open during Leylines for Life? Open 6:00 PM - 8:30 PM (may go later; unsure) Where Can I Watch? https://www.twitch.tv/irishmoo

Who are YOU? https://twitter.com/the_irishmoo

Last year we raised over $1,000.00 for the Rainbow Railroad and fought homophobia and transphobia across the globe. This year we fight racism! Our first event will be “speed dating” tomorrow (Wednesday the 3rd) at 5 PM WRA in the Dalaran Portrait room!

if you know you’re going to be exposed to tear gas make sure to: 

wear a scarf or bandana to cover your nose and mouth (assuming you don’t have access to a gas mask, dust mask or other kinds of filtered masks). cover up identifying marks like tattoos. 

tie up your hair and cover it as best as you can (tear gas can and will get into your hair and become tricky to wash out, you risk repeated exposure if you touch your hair and then your face etc).

wear goggles (swimming goggles or ski goggles work pretty well, sunglasses are not as good but they are better than nothing).

COVER YOUR SKIN (tear gas irritates the fuck out of your skin so cover up as best as you can. wear gloves. especially in warmer months sweat or other kinds of moisture on open skin eyes and lungs will react to tear gas and it will burn).

carry cold water with you to wash your face upon exposure, make sure it’s sealed so it’s not contaminated. hot water will open your pores and likely exacerbate the situation, so try to only use cold water.

prepare a separate spray bottle and fill it with a mixture of baking soda and water, this will help neutralize some of the effects of the gas. 3 tsp to every 250 ml seems to be a good rule of thumb. you will spray this onto your face and skin as needed. edit: this mixture is similar to what we used while we were protesting, but i have read conflicting reports regarding its medical efficacy. there’s apparently a risk of scratching your corneas if the baking soda has not dissolved sufficiently. if in doubt just use loads of fresh cold water.

do not wear makeup, sunscreen, creams, or contact lenses. 

upon exposure: 

try not to panic. running blindly will overexert your lungs and make things worse, and might make you hyperventilate faster. you also risk creating chaos and running headfirst into something more dangerous. move quickly but safely to get away from the cloud. get to higher ground if you can. if you’re in a building that has been gassed, immediately exit the building.

if you do inhale it, DON’T PANIC. it feels horrible and kind of like you might die but for most people it’s not lethal. (if you have asthma or other respiratory conditions or you’re elderly it’s far more dangerous for you to be exposed. infants are at greater risk also.) don’t rub your eyes or your face. you might vomit. your eyes and nose will stream like crazy. cough and spit as much as you can to get rid of the mucus build up. you might feel dizzy and disoriented. you might feel blinded. that’s normal. use the spray bottle on your eyes and face as quickly as possible and escape the area. the immediate effects will likely wear off in an hour or two but you might feel the burning/irritation for a day or two afterwards. 

take care of yourself first and help others after. remember that touching exposed individuals with bare hands will contaminate your skin also. 

if a gas canister lands next to you DO NOT TOUCH IT UNLESS YOU’RE WEARING HEAVY DUTY GLOVES. you will get second degree burns. the traffic cone method that HK protesters have been using seems to be the safest option to neutralize the canisters, but unless you’re sufficiently prepared to do this your only priority should be to get away from them. 

when you get home: 

take off your shoes outside so you don’t track particles into your house. wear gloves while handling contaminated items. 

take off all of your clothes. everything, down to your underclothes will likely be soaked in gas. if you’re able to, hang them outside to air them out on a balcony or in a yard for a few days.

wash your face with cold water as many times as you can. do not stand over a sink and do this; kneeling down and tilting your head back to pour water over your face and into the inner corners your eyes is more effective. flush your eyes out one by one, try not to cross-contaminate particles from one eye into the other.

wash your glasses and goggles with soap and water. 

take a cold shower with soap. do not take a bath. you will probably have to take multiple showers until the burning on your face and skin subsides.

wash your contaminated clothes separately – you will have to put them through multiple wash cycles or failing that, discard them. wear gloves while doing this.

gas particles can stay active for 4-5 days so do not wear the same clothes if you are heading back out.  

what to do if your home is exposed to tear gas.

Also remember if you wear contacts take them out BEFORE protesting

If you happen to be wearing contacts for whatever reason rinse and have someone with CLEAN UNEXPOSED hands remove them as soon as possible

Sha’tari Bazaar || June 27 @ 5 PST

IC Info:

A tradition born on Draenor, the festive bazaar in Shattrath City was an annual occurrence that began only a few years after the city began to prosper. The proceeds of the bazaar primarily went back to the city itself in order to manage its well-being, expansion, and citizens as well as to aid Auchindoun and Karabor. Though the monetary gain was beneficial, the primary goal was to showcase the craftsmen and artisans of the draenic world, as they would come from every corner of Draenor, even as far as Farahlon, to exhibit and sell their best wares. 

 Though the tradition fell out of favor following the orc incursion on Draenor, it has since been reinvigorated by the Draenic Coalition. By inviting local vendors from the greater Azerothian community, it provides a snapshot of the flourishing Draenic culture while also lending to an intercultural exchange with the denizens of Azeroth and beyond.

OOC Info:

It’s time for the summer iteration of the Sha'tari Bazaar! Featuring vendors from the RP community, the Sha'tari Bazaar is a fun event designed for people to browse, shop, or simply mingle and have fun. This year, we will be raising funds for the Trevor Project once again with an art raffle (more info on the raffle available closer to the date of the event). For those of you who do not know, the Trevor Project is an LGBTQ+ organization that provides crisis intervention and suicide prevention resources to LGBTQ+ young people. Now more than ever, we need these resources to help our youth. On top of that, we will also be hosting an Auchenai themed transmog contest featuring gold purse prizes of 25k gold, 15k gold, and 10k gold for the most unique outfit. This event will take place June 27th at 5 PM PST in Shattrath City. All factions are welcome, so please have your elixirs!

Sign up for a stall here!

The first pride was a riot, more specifically a riot against police violence. Trans women like Miss Major and other people of colour paved the way for the celebration of pride today. You cannot celebrate your pride this month, or any month if you aren’t also supporting Black Lives Matter and the riots going on against police violence right now. Us white LGBTQ+ need to stand up for our black siblings and their rights, their struggles. We need to amplify their voices and show any support we can. (Edited to add links and make the image clearer)
