Here's a present for all of those who have been Naughty OR Nice:
SNOWMAN WARS!
Dates: Quest Begins - December 25th. You have 7 days to find the required
items to build your snowman. The Creation Phase ENDS on New Years Day.
On January 10th, at a time to be decided, the battles will ensue. Yes,
that's a much shorter build time than in the past. So time's a'wasting!

Third Place: (1) +1 Stat Voucher, (1) Restring Credit

Snowman Wars
Because some followings have Immortals on vacation at this time, I will
have one bag for each following. Followers may give me snow to hold for
their immortal. I will do my best to coordinate getting the bag to the Imm,
_BUT NO GUARANTEES ARE MADE_. (I don't have the ability to feed the snowmen.)
I will be online and visible at some point every day of the quest.
Have fun!

Crafted by Cordir & Aoide on 12/30/2014
Many are the denizens of the D-E-E-P...but few are as fearsome as the Kraken
that dwells within the Triton Halls. Resembling a giant squid, its rubbery,
tough hide has been used to fashion a tunic of surprising functionality and
yes, even fashionableness. While the wearer of this garment did not himself
slay the beast, the Threads themselves speak of the day in which he will...

or have been slipped.

- a coiled lute string
- a tarnished compass
- a well-used tea strainer, a few leaves of Earl Grey clinging inside
- a misshapen pearl
- a piece of soft green sea-glass
