<div><strong>« Aidez une communauté de passionnés à se relever de ses cendres. »</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Bicolline existe depuis 1994. Chaque été, plus de 6 000 joueurs et joueuses se retrouvent à Saint-Mathieu-du-Parc, en Mauricie au Québec, pour vivre une expérience unique en Amérique du Nord : le plus grand rassemblement de grandeur nature médiéval-fantastique du continent.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Une ville entière qui prend vie pendant quelques semaines, bâtie à la sueur et au cœur de milliers de passionnés.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Dans la nuit du 25 avril 2026, le feu a ravagé le cœur Historique de la vieille ville. 22 bâtiments sont partis en fumée. Le quartier le plus ancien, celui où tout a commencé il y a 30 ans, n'est plus.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Les habitués de Bicolline savent ce que cela représente. <strong>Construire ici demande un investissement constant. </strong>Ce sont des années d’efforts accumulés, la concrétisation d’un rêve, guilde après guilde, planche après planche, le duché s’est bâti. Une cabane à Bicolline, ça se mérite. C’est l’ambassade de notre imaginaire enfin réalisé !
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Et dans ces cabanes, il y avait bien plus que du bois et des clous :
</div>
<ul>
<li>Des années d’armures façonnées et ajustées à la main.
</li>
<li>Des équipements de jeu accumulés saison après saison.
</li>
<li>Des costumes élaborés avec soin, peaufinés pendant des années.
</li>
<li>Des armes artisanales, des accessoires rares, des objets qui portaient l’identité de guildes entières.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Certains joueurs avaient absolument tout leur matériel stocké là. Tout ce qui leur permettait d’exister dans cet univers est parti en quelques heures.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>John-Sébastien Côté, de la guilde de La Rédemption, gérait et développait le campement de son groupe depuis plus de deux décennies. Un manoir, une taverne, une armurerie, des chambres, une cour intérieure... Un endroit où les joueurs épuisés venaient souffler, où les familles dormaient, où l’identité d’une guilde entière s’exprimait.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>L’organisation de Bicolline, main dans la main avec sa communauté, a mis plus de 30 ans à bâtir ce que le Duché est devenu. Nous n’avons pas l’intention de laisser le feu avoir le dernier mot.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Alors, on se relève. Ensemble.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>À quoi serviront les fonds ?</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Les sommes recueillies seront utilisées exclusivement pour la reconstruction des bâtiments détruits. Pour garantir une transparence totale, la gestion du fonds est rigoureusement encadrée :
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>Gouvernance indépendante </strong>: Assurée par deux signataires administratifs (un administrateur de Bicolline et un représentant des guildes sinistrées).
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>Supervision directe </strong>: Un comité de gestion formé d’un représentant de chaque bâtiment touché supervisera l'utilisation des montants.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Chaque dollar ira directement là où les besoins sont criants.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Comment aider ?</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Si tu fais partie de la communauté de Bicolline</em> : tu sais à quel point notre univers est précieux. Fais un don, peu importe le montant, et partage massivement cette campagne dans ton réseau.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Si tu découvres Bicolline aujourd'hui </em>: Bienvenue parmi nous ! Ce que tu vois ici, c’est une communauté tissée serrée qui prend soin des siens. Rejoins notre élan de solidarité.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>C’est le moment de se serrer les coudes. Donnez, partagez, faites passer le mot.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>« Nous allons démontrer que les structures sociales créées en jeu - les guildes, les alliances, l’Honneur - sont assez solides pour porter une reconstruction de plusieurs centaines de milliers de dollars dans la vie réelle. »</em> Olivier Renard, fondateur et directeur général du Duché de Bicolline

<div><strong>"Help a community of passionate players rise from the ashes."</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Bicolline has existed since 1994. Every summer, more than 6,000 players gather in Saint-Mathieu-du-Parc, in the Mauricie region of Quebec, to experience something unique in North America: the largest medieval fantasy live-action roleplay event on the continent. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>An entire city that comes to life for a few weeks, built through the sweat and heart of thousands of devoted enthusiasts.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In the night of April 25, 2026, fire tore through the Historic core of the old town. 22 buildings went up in flames. The oldest quarter - where it all began 30 years ago - is gone.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Those who know Bicolline understand what this means. Building here demands constant investment. Years of accumulated effort, the realization of a dream - guild by guild, plank by plank, the duchy took shape. A cabin at Bicolline is earned. It is the embassy of our imagined world, finally made real.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And inside those cabins, there was far more than wood and nails:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>Years of armour crafted and fitted by hand.
</li>
<li>Gaming equipment accumulated season after season.
</li>
<li>Costumes built with care, refined over years.
</li>
<li>Handcrafted weapons, rare accessories, objects that carried the identity of entire guilds.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Some players had absolutely everything stored there. All that allowed them to exist in this world was gone within hours.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>John-Sébastien Côté, of the guild La Rédemption, had been managing and developing his group's encampment for over two decades. A manor, a tavern, an armoury, sleeping quarters, an inner courtyard — a place where exhausted players came to breathe, where families slept, where the identity of an entire guild expressed itself.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Bicolline organization, hand in hand with its community, spent over 30 years building what the Duchy has become. We have no intention of letting fire have the last word.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So we rise. Together.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Where will the funds go?
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All donations will be used exclusively for the reconstruction of the destroyed buildings. To ensure full transparency, the management of the fund is rigorously overseen:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>Independent governance: Ensured by two administrative signatories — one Bicolline administrator and one representative of the affected guilds.
</li>
<li>Direct supervision: A management committee made up of one representative from each affected building will oversee how funds are used.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every dollar will go directly where it is needed most.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How can you help?</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>If you are part of the Bicolline community:</em> you know how precious our world is. Make a donation - any amount - and share this campaign as widely as you can.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>If you are discovering Bicolline today:</em> Welcome! What you see here is a tight-knit community that looks after its own. Join our wave of solidarity.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now is the time to stand together. Give, share, spread the word.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>"We are going to demonstrate that the social structures created in the game - the guilds, the alliances, the Honour - are strong enough to carry a reconstruction worth several hundred thousand dollars in the real world." </em>Olivier Renard, founder and CEO of the Duché de Bicolline
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We hold the line. United for tomorrow.
