It's designed that way, but I'm not sure why! Maybe they figured that people wouldn't be careful about null checking etc if they could just call an event directly but if they called the OnEvent it should be handled there? Just guessing!

I suppose the normal way (as you said) is the protected virtual void OnMyEvent(MyEventArgs e) method in the base and call that directly or override in the derived class.

Instead, you can mark the event as virtual in the base and override that in the derived class if you want.

BTW, it doesn't matter of course, but I normally use this if using my own event args, saves having to declare those delegates myself!:
public event EventHandler<MyEventArgs> MyEvent;

BTW, in software, hope and pray is not a viable strategy. (Luc Pattyn)
