My dear homins,

A terrible tragedy has happened! Me lovely meckies - obedient, intelligent and tender creatures got stolen , kidnapped by the vile brigands, calling themselves the "Highway clan". It is such a loss such a loss... In all these years that we have spent travelling across Atys trading I got really attached to those beasts... Not to mention that half a year's worth of trades is hidden in their saddle bags... Without them I am but a poor pennyless homin...

The thieves however have left a message, as if mocking the old man. The message states that they will give me a chance to find my lovely meckies on Tuesday of the next week at the Knoll of Dissent if I will solve their riddle ...

I have seen that riddle - it is a thing completely beyond my understanding... And what can I, an old fyros trader know about matis land of the Knoll?

I beg you, my dearest homins, help the old trader find his beloved animals, join me next Tuesday At the knoll kami teleport and find my stolen caravan. I will reward you handsomely, that much i can surely promise!

Yours truly
Trader

OOC\\ Mates i am running a "treasure hunt event". This event has been tested a couple of times with a group of close friends and has proved a lot of fun.

For this event we need 3 teams of equal size (up to 9 people). Each team will have it's team leader who will be given a riddle and a set of clues that can help you solve it. The teams will be mixed (raffle) so no faction alignment will be involved :D Please do not wear faction PvP tags during event...

To solve the riddle you have to find certain bits of information all around KoD, combat aggressive tribes fight off aggro mobs. There will also be quests provided by a Seer, who has some of the information for you.

In the end when you solve the riddle (it is possible even without guessing some of it's parts) You get the location of the stolen caravan and the team that arrives there first will receive the prize. If they wish they can then share some of the prize with the other participants (little prizes will be ready for all anyway). There will be also one or 2 of the evil "Highway Clan" present who will guard the stolen Caravan - he will run off and all the teams combined must hunt him down :D The person who lands a final blow on him receives an additional prize.

So far the prize consists of cats, and some weaps but maybe some people interested in this event could contribute to the prize ;)

The event will take place at 8 pm GMT on Tuesday 11\09\07 and will start from Knoll of descent kami tp...

Please post your ideas in this thread. Also post here if you wish to participate, so I will add you to the participants list. Please note that no more than 27 people can participate so once we reach that number no more applications are accepted.

Cheers

I can't make that time. Like Xtarsia, I don't think you should be disheartened. Contact people in-game and let them know about it. Many more will show up if alerted in the hours before the event. We had well over 50 players attend the Festivals of Light, but only few posts would show up here. :)


P.S. Views add up when the same people revisit the thread. :D

We all look, we like events. Excluding most NA players with a mid work/school time will mean many looks without us being able to participate.
