Rethenian Festival

The Festival of Rethe or Rethenian Festival is an annual celebration of establishment of the colony on Rethe.

• Many simply call it Festival.

Description (Specifications)

Originally a reaction to the restrictive governmental structure considered necessary for survival on Rethe, the three day holiday period has continued as a carefree celebration where citizens release the tension that has built up over the year. All laws are suspended, with law level becoming 0 during the celebrations. Some abuses have always been persistent, but the population has always resisted any effort to change the conditions of their favorite holiday.

It runs from 139-141 each year.

History & Background (Dossier)

The Travellers' Aid Society has classified Rethe as an Amber Travel Zone during the period of Festival.
