Qho's Fan Faire Adventures!
In an original story by ZAM's own Cyliena, Qho goes on a wild adventure at the 2011 SOE Fan Faire in Las Vegas.

Sorry about that, the wretched child never wants to give up the quill.
Fan Faire 2011 was hosted again in Ballys Las Vegas. I arrived on Wednesday and was quickly in a whirlwind of activity, with my Qho proxy forgotten for a couple of days. Friday rolled around by the time I remembered that Qho hadn't received his Fan Faire treatment and so the fun began!
First Qho was introduced to the main show room where he quickly came face-to-face with the person who empowered him in Norrath, Emily "Domino" Taylor. He hopped up on her shoulder and photo-bombed the group picture that she was posing for with Calthine and Jethal Silverwing. He then proceeded to nag them all for some harvests! The boy had a lot to learn about Vegas.
Later that evening we went to the pool party and had a blast. Qho was a bit nervous since he was underage but I let him out for a bit of a swim. When the rain started to fall he panicked about "deteriorating" and I had to take the kid back up to our room.
On Saturday morning I decided to let Qho call the shots for a while. He ran right up to the authenticator table and started rambling about roots, berries, various types of pelts and finally got up the nerve to ask the woman at the table for an authenticator. She asked him for his badge and he stammered out some random numbers in confusion and was given an authenticator!
We then went to look at the silent auction items and station store. Qho squealed in delight when he ran into Cloudrat at the silent auction and begged for a picture, which she silently agreed to. At the station store he got quite attached to the Free Realms hats and I finally had to pull him away, explaining that he wouldn't be able to take them back into Norrath to wear.
Next up was the demo stations and Qho absolutely insisted on spending time at the Free Realms one. He got a close look at it and kept inquiring about what types of harvests there were, how he could get them and 
how many people would be willing to help him out. Farming in Sacred Grove was explained to him and it was then almost impossible to get him away from the game!
Before leaving the show room Qho stopped by to get a green screen picture taken. It only took him a moment to decide on the Free Realms background. Sacred Grove denizens, beware of Qho!
