Running of the Beef
The Running of the Beef is an event that was started by Thyatira. In the event, participants are instructed to roll a new level 1 player of the chosen race. Each character should have a name matching the theme of the run, and should join the guild created for the run. The goal is to run from the starting area of that race to a predetermined location. The first one there wins first prize, second there gets second prize, and so on. The event has been a favorite of many guild members.
