Hello! Another bit of an interkingdom anthropology question: what's largesse culture like in Atlantia? in An Tir, I'm used to our crowns and coronets collecting general items to have in reserve to be given out as needed and updating the artisans of the populace on what would be nice/what they have in supply, and I thought making something might be a nice way to introduce myself upon my move, but I haven't found any information of the kind from groups in Atlantia. Do you make items for the coffers? If not, can you think of any other way an aspiring artisan might make an entrance?
Hello and welcome in advance!
Yes - Atlantian largesse culture is the same. Artisans and craftspeople will make tokens or favors with either Spike (our Kingdom mascot) or perhaps even the Crown's heraldry on it to be gifted at their whim. Giving mugs or feast gear to be presented to newcomers at Court is welcome. Once in a while there will be a call for award tokens to be given along with the scrolls.
Offering your skills and art is ALWAYS appreciated, but don't forget about entering A&S competitions or offering a class at an event! You can also make lovely gifts of your art to people who have welcomed or assisted you along the way, as well. No need to wait for a pointy hat to do it - give your own largesse!

Ladies, gentlemen, and those in between: the time has come once again! After yet another long winter’s time of gathering resources, the Higuri Regalia is proud to announce the return of the “Regalia Largesse” - marking its seventh occurrence!
For those unaware or uninitiated: The Regalia Largesse is an annual event spanning anywhere between 5-7 days that occurs around the late spring/early summer, and is considered the “pinnacle of Noblesse Oblige”!
During this event, individuals from the Higuri Regalia’s hierarchy will make appearances within the various city-states to offer wares to the adventuring public - FOR FREE (Tips and donations are always greatly appreciated, but never mandatory)!
On Sunday, June 16th, at around 7PM EDT, look for a Party Finder ad from any one of the Regalia members; they will provide you information on where they are, and what items will be offered, with a detailed list of what’s available while supplies last. Due to the ever-increasing quantity of wares, their post duration has been extended to three hours. All locations take place on the Balmung World in the Crystal Data Center.
Also, throughout the week, starting at the commencement of the Largesse, those who are willing to partake in a special contest will receive a number. On last day of that week (i.e. the end of the Largesse), a raffle will take place where a series of numbers will be drawn, and those who win will be offered prizes!
RULES:
*To enter the raffle, simply ask the representative currently posted during that day; a tracker is kept throughout the course of the event, and is shared amongst the Regalia members.
You MUST attend the final day of the Largesse in order to qualify for a chance to win.
In the event you are unable to attend the raffle for any reason, you are allowed 1 proxy to vouch for you, so long as they state whom they are replacing.
If your number happens to be drawn, you are offered a chance to decline a particular prize if you have eyes on another, but a winner will be decided for the sake of fairness.
Notes: Sprouts (New Players/Adventurers) will receive Flying Beds and/or attire Coffers as a consolation gift.
The prize list includes the following, and are subject to change:
1st Place Winners: A Chrysomallos Horn/Magitek Avenger G1 Identification Key/Gilded Mikoshi Horn/Golden Ronkan Flute! (4 winners)
2nd Place Winners: An Island Adenium Whistle/Quaqua Horn/Sabotender De La Luna Whistle! (x2 each; 6 winners)
3rd Place Winners: A full set of Free Spirit's Attire! (5 winners)
4th Place Winners: An Uolosapa! (10 winners)
Look for these beautiful individuals throughout the week for the item(s) of the day. Note: stock may (and will) expand between now and the commencement of the Largesse, so everything listed herein is not final.

What do you do when you are stuck inside, bored, and need something to do with your hands? Why, you make a bunch of lucet braids for your Baroness to hand out as largesse, of course!
Seriously, it was so many belts. made to be either double wrapped for those with slimmer waists or single for those, like myself who have a more generous figure.
I have a lot of yarn left over from my college knitting phase that I haven’t touched in years. What better way to use it than to give back to the barony that made me excited during these times of plague?
