With the hunting season drawn to a close there has been precious little of curiosity of late. The long dark of winter envelops the land, shortening the days and leaves adventures of valor to mull the year’s events in their halls by night, comforted by the warmth of their fires that push back the Ice King’s fingers of frost nipping at their heels. It goes without my saying that one would rather venture forth into the wilds then stand to in their chambers, cordoned in by winter’s white prison. Of course, one not always needs to seek out glory to have a story to tell! And so begins my tale.
In the midst of ferrying my dearest sister’s worldly belongings from her home in the wilds of Plaistow to my estate in the valley, a courier arrived with two packages, addressed to myself.
He left without a word, simply leaving them at the west side of the manor house. We had been in the midst of moving dear sister’s supremely heavy mattress into the homestead (how does a material that is as soft as a cloud feel heavier then stone? A riddle for the ages), so I had no inclination to investigate the unexpected containers until our toil had been completed, as dear sister’s furniture appeared to be multiplying in our absence from the carriage. But that is a story for another time…
Much later in the day, as I reclined and rested from my troubles the memory of the strange packages crept back into my skull. With renewed vigor I delved into the first box, which despite signs of distress had all of its contents still intact.
A note was found within:
Naphtali,
Contained within your two packages, you will find supplies which I hope will come in handy during your adventures, whether you need a pack, a sword, some health and mana, or some gold! (if the gold melts… let me know and I’ll gladly replace the affected items…)
Enjoy! And have a Merry Christmas!
Sincerely, your friend

The mystery gift-giver now had a name! Sir @godmode! What an unexpected boon to have received such bounty from a noblemen such as him.
The box contained the following treasures:
Ah! Board games to help pass the time in the long winter months! No doubt these contain tales inspired by the adventures of Sir godmode himself! Truly a blessing. My kin and I shall use them to sharpen our intellect before setting out once again at the first thaw of spring.
Next in the box was a Bag of Holding! How could he have known my old bag had been torn asunder by the Redcap my kin and I had fought last spring? Within it I found even more treasure. The three side pouches contained,
Dice forged by elves and dragons,
A Critical Hit die with a health potion (very handy),
A mana potion along with several pieces of gold! And if you thought Sir godmode’s generosity ended there, well, what a fool you’d be!
The main pouch was stuffed full of even more gold and potions! My expeditions for the spring are already paid for in full, and well stocked! However underneath them all I found…
What a strange item? No doubt it is meant to train for skill on the field of battle, but the soldier wields a weapon I have never seen before and the container is covered in strange glyphs. I trust my alchemist can decipher what magic this item embodies, but a gift is a gift none the less.
After tailing up my gifts, I noticed a few mentioned by the note unaccounted for. Digging back into the box I found…
Ah! The precious familial keepsake! Delicious candies and a heartfelt story inside. A wonderful gift. All that remained missing was the sword… of course! The other box!
Upon opening the final package, a smaller box was contained within. Could it be…
Yes! A marvelous long sword. The craftsmanship of it appears to be of a high caliber, but the blade itself is made of a strange metal… some sort of starmetal? Quite exquisite.
Words cannot fully capture my gratitude towards Sir godmode for this amazing bounty. He is truly one of the finest knight’s the land has ever known, or will ever know.
TL;DR RP
While helping my sister move back home today some packages arrived, I was too busy to look at them until later. When I finally remember about them after all the chaos, I discovered all the amazing and really well thought out gifts @godmode got me! I’m gonna play the heck out of those D&D board games with my friends, probably share all the gold bullion with my coworkers because there’s no way I can eat all that candy, but I’ll save the lifesavers for myself. And I’ll totally use the backpack for carrying… something! Probably at least ferry dice & other belongings to and from Pendragon games my cousin’s group has been running. And I have never had an actual sword before, going to have to look up how to maintain them (the blade was covered in a ton of oil that I cleaned off of it to start, but the scabbard is pretty well lubricated now from it). And Battlefield was a nice gift, my friends have been nagging me to get it and now I don’t have an excuse. Thank you so much @godmode, everything you got me was awesome!

Dearest friends,

Look at all his neat hats!
Dear satan I wish for this or maybe some of this....oh and I'm a medium or a large.
Actually, it was just colored copy paper from Staples. I'm glad it looks good in photos, though.
I wondered if that would give me away.
