I've been so up to my eyeballs trying to make this the best Epic Week it could be that I almost forgot to do the actual promo work for it. 🤡 But fear not -- Epic Week is happening this year, and at the usual time!What will our adventures be like this year? It looks like our refugee friends the Scu'tel may need our help again, this time getting settled in their new home.
Who the heck are the Scu'tel? Why, by coincidence, I happen to have a little video recap for you.

We see the crash site, there’s more snow covering it but the ship is still visible and there are several walrus moving around.
Narrator: Two years ago, an ark ship carrying the last survivors of an alien race crashed in the frozen north. We dropped everything to get to their ship, fight off the haunted hordes, and wake them from their cryogenic sleep.
We cut to the town. It looks cold and the snow covered mountains can be seen in the distance as the narration continues. The towns people are walking side by side with the Scu'tel.
Narrator: The people of the RP Repository welcomed our new friends, helping them to make a new home in and around our communities. Through determination and a helping hand, the Scut’el have become our neighbors, and begun to thrive.
Final shot, back to the snow. We see a Snatcher hand emerge from the shadows of a dark cave.
Narrator: But not everyone can tolerate change, and the forces of frost are beginning to stir.

I was wondering if we'd get a prior announcement. 
Not sure I'll be around much the first few days, but I've done what I can to update the Armory in prep.
