Eve of the Reunion

Forum Post There is a very rare drop that will be an invitation to the Eve of the Reunion event that GM Thandiwe has talked about. There are a finite number of these invites, and when they're all claimed, there will not be anymore. This does take one of your KNOCKs in TOT, but it's considered a special event that can randomly happen when you don't hit a "trick" or a "treat."

2021 Ebon Gate Item Teasers

Hot Dog! by GM Avaluka

Current owners may have noticed some new ambient messaging has rolled out for their WerePuppies, but it looks like Tugaroulu may be up to something more substantial!

As the Puppy Turns...

GM Xayle's EG Teasing Teaser Thingers

New scents were teased, one in a very particular style. In addition, a new shop for roguely things, fletching supplies return, tools of the craft, and new temporary eye and hair things.

Additional information: Discord Discussion

  • Hay You Guys, Look At This: Official Forum Post
  • Now Look At This: Official Forum Post
  • Six new flavors of scented cigar: Toasted Coconut Brandy, Mulled Wine, Vanilla and Bourbon Caramel, Maple Rum, Black Cherry Amaretto, and Orchard Apple.
  • Perfume cigars WILL be wearable in the teeth for 10 minutes at a time. Then it’ll revert to your hand and what have you.
  • AND, in addition to my normal custom perfume raffle, there will be a raffle for a custom cigar scent, which will come with an infinite cigar.
  • And for the perfume lovers, this year’s scent line up was created with the theme of “It’s the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine.”
  • Scents include: Trepidation, Fatalistic, Desolation, Inevitable, Defiance, and Denial.
  • Most with ingredients drawn from flower language to subtly tell you you’re up the creek.
  • There’s even a horse-flavored matchbox. Everyone’s a winner this year!
  • By popular request, my off-the-shelf perfume bottles now have 100 uses rather than the typical 30. Discord

Elemental Illusion Charms by GM Avaluka

Following their refreshed debut at Rumor Woods, Avaluka offers a sneak peak at the Caligos-themed contents of Turn On the Charm and shares a new special type of charm that will only be available by raffle.
