Caligos Isle debuted as the venue for the Ebon Gate Festival in 2017, and continued to host it until its ultimate demise in 2021. Prior to this time, it was assumed to be a largely uninhabited island from the Origins of Ghezresh.

Quest Information
Each year, participants had the opportunity to complete a quest that would gain them "favor" as part of the storyline. Gaining favor would unlock mechanical benefits associated with the original quest prize, a ghezyte chelioboros item. In 2020, the storyline advanced to feature several factions following other deities working against Ghezresh. In 2021, five separate quests focusing on different NPCs and the resolution to their stories were introduced.
2021 Quests
Quest Reward Information
Participants in the yearly quests gain a ghezyte chelioboros piece of jewelry that is able to have its worn location swapped based on pre-determined locations. In 2021, the jewelry piece was able to be converted to one of the seven deities that were fighting against Ghezresh prior to the destruction of Caligos Isle.
Item Conversion

Additional Information
Announcement
09/05/2017 Ebon Gate Dates and Pricing Information by Wyrom, PM
Here is the Ebon Gate Dates and Pricing information for 2017.
Ebon Gate will launch October 1st, beginning with just the storyline aspect of the grounds. The move from Feywrot Mire to Caligos Isle will be explained during this time. Once you arrive on Caligos Isle, you will be able to explore at your leisure. Shops will be open for early browsing, but wares will not be on sale until roughly 9pm ET on October 6th when shopping, games, and other activities will open up.
This year, we're trying something new, which we're pretty excited about. We are moving away from the box office, and that means the main grounds will be open to all players at all times. We are breaking up the cost into an à la carte style event, so you buy into the level you choose to. This was to address some of the concerns we've heard over the years and to help manage expectations of the event overall.
Ebon Gate pricing is going to be broken up into three parts: shopping, raffles & services, and games. I tried to convey this during our sneak peak at SimuCon, but we weren't 100% ready to announce all the details then. GM Haliste also has been working on this more thoroughly than I have and knew more about it. Some of the recent threads that came up about the cost were left a bit incomplete because we wanted to make sure we can deliver what we publish. It's better to announce accurate information, rather than reaction information (which is something we fall victim to a lot). This is part of us trying to communicate better with our community.
At SimuCon, I mentioned games would be similar to the Duskruin Dig in that you purchase the items from the SimuCon store. The original plan was for a shovel to be offered in the store with a time-based usage (and not a number of DIG uses). After the initial response though, we felt this was just going to be too confusing to explain if you had to buy the actual shovel from the store. The reason for moving to a time-based shovel is this is the first year we're going to be offering digging for nearly the entire month. Typically, digging and games are only available for a little over a week (two in Platinum).
The price breakdown is as follows:
- Shopping Pass: 1000 SimuCoins / Event Duration
- Raffles & Services Pass: 3000 SimuCoins / Merchant Week
- Games and Digging Pass: 1500 SimuCoins / Week
This means you can buy into the level of Ebon Gate that you choose to. Some players have mentioned in the past that there are aspects of the event that they have no interest in or never can line up their schedule for. Now you can make that choice for yourself. You can pick up a service pass only if you know you're getting a service under this new model. You can pick up a game pass only when you actually want to dig. You can pick up a shopping pass only if you find items you actually want to buy.
We also have a new activity called Deep Sea Diving. This is a brand new venture that has a pricing model similar to Duskruin/Delirium (roughly 100 SimuCoins per entry), but is not necessary to attend to enjoy Ebon Gate. Much like Delirium Manor was at Ebon Gate 2016, this is a companion piece to Ebon Gate. The difference is this is fully integrated with Caligos Isle, and it isn't a standalone event. Deep Sea Diving has new mechanics and some fun nostalgic areas to explore!
Ebon Gate will mostly cost silver once inside, but we will be introducing a new currency for the Isle called seashells. These seashells will be useful for a handful of shops at Ebon Gate (similar to Delirium), as well as some services. We'll also have some things available for tickets, for those that saved some from a previous year.
Some changes this time that are happening are the cost of shovels and games. Prior to Ebon Gate 2012, digging was 2000 silver and the older games were between 1000 to 5000 silver. In 2017, digging will once again be 2000 silver per shovel, and the various games will start at 1000 silver.
Merchants are tentatively scheduled for the following weeks in eastern time: - Platinum: Friday, October 13, 9:00 PM – Friday, October 20, 8:59 PM - Prime: Friday, October 20, 9:00 PM – Friday, October 27, 8:59 PM
Lastly, I'll briefly mention we are discussing the exchange of alternative currencies. We are not ready to release any information about this, but when exchanges are possible, it will only be a one-way route into two of our currencies. You will not be able to exchange tickets into bloodscrip, but you would be able to convert bloodscrip into tickets. This isn't pertinent to Ebon Gate, but it does impact the event planning.
We will have more information for you in the coming weeks.Souvenir
Each year, attendees had the ability to receive a free souvenir towards the end of the festival. Due to the importance of elesine on the isle, the souvenirs were items crafted of this material. It is important to note that they were not eligible for alteration, nor could the ready made clothing items be used for alteration fodder.
| Year | Item | Show | Addition Information, if any |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 | a medium-sized bolt of elesine cloth | N/A | to be used as alter fodder for medium-sized items, or as trim only for larger items, including cloak-worn items, gowns, and large capacity containers). |
| 2021 | some grey elesine sandals with twisted indigo suede ties | This section has not been added yet; please add to it now! | N/A |
| 2020 | an indigo elesine sack embroidered with coils of shadowy eels | The construction of this sack is double-walled with an indigo exterior, while the interior is a soft, misty grey. Cording in a twisted braid of both colors is fed through the gathered mouth of the container and into a pewter chelioboros clasp to ensure the safety of the items within. Amongst the indigo folds of elesine is subtle eel embroidery a shade or two off from that of the background, and clever tailoring along with the natural sheen of the fabric gives the creatures the illusion of movement. | N/A |
| 2019 | a grey-trimmed indigo elesine tunic | Cut to hit the wearer at mid-thigh, the tunic is tailored of fine elesine dyed an uncompromising shade of indigo. Elaborately embroidered swirls in silvered grey threading trim the edges of the lower hem and the keyhole neckline, coiling like errant wisps of fog, while a set of laces slither through electrum eyelets lined from mid-chest to throat. The cuffs of the sleeves bear similar lacing, as do the splits on either side, though both are merely decorative. | N/A |
| 2018 | a pair of grey elesine pants | The elesine from which the pants have been tailored is immaculate, and the subtle metallic sheen lent to the sea silk by the interwoven threads of electrum give the garment a flowy drape. Indigo embroidery chases the outer seam of each leg as the bodies of eels woven together end to end all the way to the cuff. From one of the front belt loops, a thin length of chain is fixed, and it dangles a simple ghezyte chelioboros medallion. | N/A |
| 2017 | a deeply hooded grey elesine robe | Deep grey in hue, the robe is meticulously tailored and in pristine condition. The elesine from which it is woven has a triaxial pattern accented by the subtle metallic sheen of the sea silk base and thread-thin strands of electrum. Along the edges of the deep hood and belled sleeves are tendrils of indigo satin, the embroidery sinuous and curved like the lithe body of an eel. At the throat, a ghezyte chelioboros clasp closes the robe. |
