This is, quite possibly, the most fun I've had in an event. It was created by a friend of mine who plays Talmai's mother. The woman is awesome, the character is a mean vindictive, nasty piece of work!
The story is that Vassild, that's Talmai's mother, is a gold digger who wants to continue to have control over her son's inheritence. The idea, marry him off, make sure he gets his new bride pregnant, kill off the parents and raise the baby (the new heir) as her own. I SAID SHE WAS NASTY!
Of course it's a bonus is the new bride also has a healthy inheritence of her own! Thus was born the Noble Bachelor.
Vassild is not a noble, neither is Talmai, but all the ladies applying to win the ultimate prize (lol) have to be. They must have land and titles and a significant amount of cash. To bypass this annoying restriction we made sure that Vassild's personal assistant took bribes to let in women who didn't actually qualify.
The event itself saw Talmai in chains and under guard while Vassild MC'd. She asked the contestants ridiculous questions. My favorite was, "when you are married to my son and are making whoopie in the other room, what kind of noises will I be hearing?" (or something to that effect). Vassild and the contestants are in a raid group together, all the ladies /roll and the lowest roll is disqualified. To everyone else it looks like an arbitrary decision by a snarky mother.
Finally, when only two contestants are left... well... at the last Noble Bachelor, someone showed up to point out that Vassild is not actually a noble. The blood knight shrieked in horror at being discovered and bubble-hearthed. Talmai, seeing his mother vanish, quickly "vanished".
All in all an aboslutely amazing event, made more so by Vassild's player!
If I'm still playing Alliance side come Noble Garden 2013 I think we will run this again, though I may be playing Vassild's role instead of Talmai's.
