It's that spooky time of year again! As Halloween approaches, creatures around the realm may transform into ghostly, decaying, putrescent versions of their former selves. Expect the first sporadic few Thursday-ish, with prevalence increasing as Halloween nears and the hunt continuing until the end of November 1st (UTC timezone).
We rely on you, brave hunters, to roam far and wide across all of Oerthe to rid the world of these foul creatures!
Another competition, perhaps more appetizing in nature, will take place during the Halloween reboot (and also finish at the end of November 1st). I speak, of course, of the delicious tradition of soliciting NPCs across the realm for candy, or as the commoners refer to it, "trick or treating."
I am delighted to announce that this year, thanks to Agarwaen and Kamikaze, there are special prizes for the most successful hunter and the top treat-collector!
Please note you do NOT need to hoard your candy, uneaten, in order for it to be counted towards your total. Eat 'em up! You'll thank me later.
Also note the prizes mentioned do not require home ownership to fully enjoy.
Luthien Monster of PR (boo!)

A shocking 670 different NPCs generously gave up treats to 13 tricky players this year! This is an increase over last year's 530 NPCs. The most popular treat-givers this year were Hanza and "An orc" who each shared 8 Halloween candies with our sweet-seekers. A total of 1653 treats were collected, about a third of those by our top goodie-gatherer, Usurper!
Usurper, 537 Cateri, 321 Ghanimf, 278 Swifteye, 200 Koronov, 179 Lewstherin, 98 Eru, 15 Xaedra, 13 Breck, 3 Varatoe, 3 Eco, 2 Kepler, 2 Tinuviel, 2
while this innocent delicious fun was being had, a more sinister contest was happening across the realm. Creatures near and far were transformed into ghastly undead versions of themselves. 21 players bravely took up the call to defeat them, with Swifteye leading the charge. A total of 388 creepy creatures were slain this year, down a bit from last year's total of 411.
Swifteye, 320 Kepler, 16 Usurper, 13 Dudemeister, 10 Lithic, 3 Moab, 3 Shadap, 3 Text, 3 Desolator, 2 Puscifer, 2 Sorcha, 2 Zwr, 2 Chrysolite, 1 Eru, 1 Jktwodoor, 1 Kendrick, 1 Lewstherin, 1 Shemp, 1 Sjor, 1 Urza, 1 Vulcan, 1
Congratulations to our top hunter, Swifteye, and our top gatherer, Usurper! Please see me to collect your spooooooky prizes!
Thank you all for playing, and stay tuned for the legendary Wild Turkey Hunt later this month! GOBBLE GOBBLE
