The Great Pumpkin & Grand Halloween Festival

The Great Pumpkin has arrived! 🎃

For the next month, until Sunday, November 9th, players will have access to the Great Pumpkin -- a massive (cabin-sized), sentient jack-o-lantern with a very special forge in its mouth. There are four ways for players to interact with the Great Pumpkin! You may also request Great Pumpkin/Halloween-themed mini-games for the duration of the event!

REQUEST A REWARD (Player Control: High)

1. Post in the channel below with your request.
   • You can request just about anything, including but not limited to: level or devotion progression; upgraded or brand new items, talents, pets, companions, or characters; special permissions (ex: Ancestry Tokens, Support Favor, etc.); coppers; missed or extra prizes from previous events; etc.
2. Support will provide you with a list of three "sacrifices". You can request a re-roll of sacrifices one time for 500c.
   • These might include a request for a post of a certain word count or the use of a word in a post; participating in a mini-game; sacrificing a talent, item, or pet in your inventory; etc. Difficulty level / extent of sacrifice will relate to the size of the request made.
3. Select one option, complete any necessary tasks (if applicable), and return to this channel to complete the exchange.
   • You may also elect not to complete the sacrifice/exchange if you change your mind!

REQUEST A RECIPE (Player Control: Medium)

1. Post in the channel below with a list of any three things in your inventory.
   • Possible options could include level or devotion progression, coppers, crafting materials, items, pets, Talents, companions, or even characters!
2. Support will reply with a list of 3 recipes that can be crafted from your offerings. You can request a re-roll of recipes up to 3x for 250c each.
   • Recipes provided will typically be themed after the three things you offered. Recipes may use any number of offered things (ex: some will include all three, some will only take 2, etc.)
3. Select one recipe to move forward with.
   • Offerings will be consumed in the creation of the new reward. Recipes may also drop "byproducts" (small extra goodies).
   • You may also elect not to complete the recipe if you change your mind!
   • Notes: Recipe requests take some time to put together, your patience is appreciated! Also, if you have something in particular you'd like to do with a combination, please don't hesitate to ask.

MEET THE GREAT PUMPKIN (Player Control: Medium)

1. Post a new thread on the Events board featuring your character approaching the Great Pumpkin; you may post alone or with others. The Great Pumpkin usually hangs out near Pyronmouth's northern gate, but may wander in to other areas so posts may be set in any location. There is no limit on the number of characters, or times per character, that you can interact with the pumpkin!
   • Tag @signe and set to "To Character: Great Pumpkin"
2. The Pumpkin will respond directly until the thread is completed or until Saturday, November 9th (whichever comes first).
3. At the end of the thread, each participant will receive three possible prizes, shaped by their thread’s tone and choices, along with any potential bonuses the Pumpkin deems fitting; you may choose one to keep. How your character behaves, bargains, or reacts will directly influence their outcomes.
   • If a thread isn’t finished by the deadline, rewards will still be granted based on whatever interaction was completed at that point.

TRICK OR TREAT (Player Control: Low)

1. Post in the channel below with any two things from your inventory.
   • Possible options could include level or devotion progression, coppers, crafting materials, items, pets, Talents, companions, or even characters!
2. Support will take both offerings in exchange for one random outcome.
   • This may include upgrades, downgrades, curses, blessings, or something entirely new.
   • Results are final and automatic. You cannot re-roll, request changes, or choose to withdraw once your offerings are submitted.
