Curse of the Winter Winds Scavenger Hunt
There is a Curse upon the homeland of Olaf the White and his fellow Viking companions! The Winter Winds have arrived early and harshly. They have been quested to search for a list of items that Olaf was given in a vision. They must collect them to appease Odin and the Norse Gods so they will lift the Curse and they need your help! Find as many items as you can and return with proof so that Olaf the White’s Homeland will be restored!
The Item List: 1. Tome of History 2. Deck of Tarot 3. Bottle of Mead 4. Cork of Screw 5. Game of Board 6. Grapes of Red 7. Wand of Magic 8. Beard of Gray 9. Hat of Wizard 10. Dog of Bark 11. Cat of Floof 12. Bubble of Bath 13. Salt of Sea 14. Turkey of Wild 15. Rope of Knot 16. Rib of Pork 17. Sword of Steel 18. Candle of Flame 19. Lady of Lake 20. Lord of Dance 21. Ship of Sail 22. Cloak of Hood To Collect the Items: Find an example of your interpretation of each Item. Take a picture of yourself with the item. Selfies with the item are accepted! Groups may choose to play together if they wish. However, each group is required to use a minimum of one person to be in all the pictures as a Visual Anchor for the judges. For example: ‘Drusilla’ is in every List Item photo, even if the rest of her group are not. You do not have to get every List Item to create a score. Example: Can’t find a Beard of Gray? Just ignore it and go on to where the fun is! Have fun with your submissions. Creativity plays as much a part as accuracy. The more creative you are in overcoming the obstacles and obtaining List Items to submit, the better your score will likely be. A clever submission may beat a literal, physical one. “Turkey of Wild” can mean different things. Most List Items are open to imaginative interpretation.
