🎄 You're all Invited (PC/NA) - An ESO Christmas Production 🎄

Our gracious community is what makes ESO different from other MMO’s. Sometimes you see it in zone, twitch streams, here in the forums, or in dungeon pugs. Sure, there are some trolls out there, but for the most part… we are all part of this huge family.

Since 2019, we attempt to give the ESO community a little Christmas Spirit during the holidays by putting on a full production play right here in ESO. With more than 20 scene changes, a full cast, music, sound effects, this year, we have a new story to tell; Investigator Vale: An Entangled Carol. And you are all welcome to come! (Although seating is very limited)

"Locked in combat with her mortal enemy Terenus, the voice of the Brotherhood, plunged to his death over the Anvil Lighthouse. Absent for two years, Tamriel mourned the loss of their foremost consulting investigator. Vale, however, was still alive.

With no sense of purpose, she is encouraged by Dr. Timothy Cratchit to explore Ebenezer Scrooge’s unusual death. It is a dark and treacherous Christmas Eve, and Investigator Vale is a tormented woman. And now, the brilliant investigator must utilize her deductive skills to solve the crime.

The game has begun."

Vanquish is not a RP guild, we are an all-around social guild. This was a thought, to an idea, to making something work. Investigator Vale: An Entangled Carol is roughly a 2-hour play that will take you on the mysteries surrounding the death of Ebenezer Scrooge. Go with Vale and help her overcome her own personal demons as she gathers clues. Was Scrooge murdered? You’ll have to come see.

We are hosting 6 shows this year. IF you wish to see this live, either leave a comment with your in-game @ name and showtime of choice, or DM me directly. This is on the PC/NA server. Currently, we have open seats on these days:

(Updated 12/16)
Saturday, December 7th at 4:00pm EST - 2 seats remaining
Tuesday, December 10th at 8:00pm EST - SOLD OUT
Saturday, December 14th at 9:00pm EST - SOLD OUT
Sunday, December 15th at 1:00pm EST - 2 seats remaining
Tuesday, December 17th at 8:00pm EST - SOLD OUT
Friday, December 20th at 8:30pm EST - SOLD OUT

*Above will be updated daily.

We do ask that you are online, and ready, 30 minutes prior to the show. Our Host will be sending out invites at that time.

And Merry Christmas!

    Everyone else, we still have some open seats and we go live starting next weekend! Our actors are polishing things up, the scenes will set the stage, and the story is amazing. Might make you think who really is Vale =)

    Greetings all,

    Just wanted to note that the seating in the first post has been updated as of this morning, and open day Dec. 4th seats are going fast! The excitement grows this week as the cast is preparing for dress rehearsal's and putting the finishing touches on the sets.

    I've had the pleasure of being the host of each Vanquish performance throughout the years, and I have to say I'm very excited about this year. Each year that Vanquish has performed the play it has grown in popularity and size. I believe all that attend will find it amazing and very entertaining. The new sets and story will not disappoint, you will watch in awe of the wonderful sets and what the cast has been able to accomplish within the constraints of the ESO game.

    Be sure to post here or message Duck as outlined in the first post to get your seat reserved today for one of the upcoming shows!

    Reminder to the PC EU crowd:: You can create a character on PC NA and still attend. You can get a character out of the tutorial in a matter of a few minutes and then sign up and attend with a level 3 character. There are no addons or UI set up needed. Straight out of the tutorial you are good to go for viewing.

    Evening!

    Opening night is this Saturday! There just a few seats available for the first 3 shows. We are looking forward to bringing a little Christmas to ESO. The first post has been updated with seating. I thought about sharing some of the reviews we had from our last performance with An ESO Christmas Carol & Trial of the Ages done in 2022.

    Yes, there is YouTube, or twitch, that may be available for those that prefer that route. But there is something uniquely different about being there in the atmosphere. You could go to a broadway production or watch it on your home tv. We try, within our limitations, to bring a “sort of feel” to that stage the best we can. And no, not comparing to broadway.

    Our YouTube. Lol. I’m not great on updating it. The latest is in the original post. It is interesting to see how far we have progressed from 2019 tho.
