Tormal, as boring as it is will certainly attend both the opening eents and the general celebration afterwards. While he takes no particular interest in what everyone has to say - unless it seems important - he does want to make a good impression on any prying(sp?) eyes. He will try to interact with everyone and get to know a little more about the people, customs and ideals of the area or travelers that may come through.
Tormal will certainly be taking part in a number of the "unofficial" events, if not all of them, at some point during the festival. Tormal will, however, avoid getting too drunk or obnoxious at any point to avoid any uneeded attention. He certainly enjoys playing cards, and may perhaps take part in any recognized boxing matches, wrestling or even arm wrestling.
As far as the official events go Tormal is interested in taking part in the craft show if there is anything to which he can apply his sculpting skills. While he is not the best this would be a great time to practice and - who knows? - he may do better then he thinks he can. He will also enter the wrestling contest. He has learned much since he left the academy and would like a controlled environment to test those skills out. On day 6 Tormal will partake in the wine tasting and, maybe, the dance later on. He does make a note to everyone though, that he hasn't tasted much wine in his lifetime. He would also like to take some time to watch the debate contest at it's opening. On day 8 tormal will certainly try to enter the Combat Steeplechase. He thinks he may be able to handle just about everything except the bow/crossbow accuracy - but it wouldn't hurt to try. Tormal would also love to take part in any open-combat duels he can enter.
He will have to be at the announcements and proclamations but as far as that day is concerned he may take a break and just "mingle" with the crowds. During the festival Tormal seems to be pretty excited for the Lists. He will participate in that combat. Finally Tormal will be there, if things go ok, at the ending dance.
