Halloween 2008
Trick or Treat
There are 3 new common treats that can be acquired by visiting NPCs, saying "Trick or Treat" and targeting them; a muffin, a candy corn or a pixie stick. If you have Grandmaster (100) Begging there is a chance that you will be given a small spider web (and possibly other rares). Of course there are many tricks that can be played upon you, from summoning a Changeling that attacks you to instant death and other curses.
Treats
- a giant pumpkin muffin
- candy corn
- pixie stick
- pumpkin pizza (very rare)
- creepy cake (very rare)
- murky milk (very rare)
- Mr. Plain's cookies (very rare)
- harvest wine (very rare)
- small web (very rare)
The last six were gained by a GM Beggar, Mr Plain's Cookies gained with no begging skill.
Tricks
- No apparent effect
- Bleeding profusely (harmless)
- Polymorph (wolf, gorilla, daemon, ettin - possibly as per the Magery polymorph?)
- Evil twin (all your skills and weaknesses) tries to kill you, can not outrun, must gate or recall away, let it get you to 1 health where it will unsummon, or kill it. Killing it gets you nothing, ie no body to loot or spawns in backpack.
- Changeling (can be "lost" by rounding a corner and hiding)
- Insta-death (65,000 damage, body parts - Fame loss does occur)
