==== PARAGRAPH HEADER 2 ====

The eerily glowing moon signals atop the Spooky Sandcastle have pulled a massive meteor towards Gnawnia! The otherworldly chunk of rock has crashed into Varmint Valley, just south of the Gnawnian Express Station.
+
CONTENT OF PARAGRAPH
  
−
The cosmic radiation from the glowing chunk of space rock has had a profound effect on the local mice -- they're transforming into powerful weremice at night! The King needs the help of Baron/Baroness (and up) hunters to setup a defensive grid between the meteorite and the rest of Varmint Valley. Get ready to embark on a lycan-slaying, mutant-hunting endeavour, hunters!

====Building Your First Wall====
+
----
−
The first line of defense you'll build is a basic wall made of sturdy Meteorite Pieces. Fortunately, the mice in Fort Rox seem to be adept at mining and have been spotted carrying massive quantities of Meteorite Pieces around the area. Setup your trap with a Law power type weapon and Brie, Gouda, or SUPER|brie+ to start hunting these meteorite-dropping mice!
 
  
−
Keep an eye out for the Mining Materials Manager Mouse -- this mouse drops the most Meteorite Pieces of all! You'll encounter this mouse most often by using SUPER|brie+.

=== [{{MHdomain}}/newspost.php?news_post_id=868 The Draconic Depths has Surfaced!] ===
 +
''{{date|13|August|2024}}''
  
−
You can push your meteroite gathering to the extreme by building a Mage Tower at Fort Rox. The tower can be activated by burning Tower Mana each hunt to DOUBLE all your Meteorite Piece loot drops!
+
<blockquote>

*'''75 SUPER|brie+'''
+
'''Viceroy hunters and above can now embark on a new adventure.'''<br>
−
:Attracts better mice!
+
A new area has released in the Folklore Forest!
−
*'''50 Tower Mana'''
 
−
:Doubles loot drops!
 
  
−
====Hunting at Night====
+
==== The Draconic Depths has Surfaced! ====
−
Once your defenses are prepared, click the "Defend Fort" button on the HUD to indicate you're prepared for the coming night. When night falls, the relatively normal mice change from mild-mannered miners to enraged Weremice!
+
Thanks to Ronza's tireless efforts, the Mythweaver's latest plot has been discovered and it is unfolding beneath our very feet.
  
−
Each hunt you take during night will bring you closer to dawn. When night first falls, you'll encounter Weremice that are weak to Shadow traps, however, as dawn approaches, more Cosmic Critter mice will appear that are primarily week to Arcane traps. The Fort Fox HUD will help you spot when it's time to change your setup.
+
Instead of invading a world of fantasy yet again, this time the Mythweaver plans to invade the world with fantasy!
  
−
During night, it's best to use one of two lunar-themed cheeses to lure the Weremice and Cosmic Critters towards your trap and away from your wall. If you fail to attract or fail to capture a mouse, it will slip past your trap and assault your wall, causing damage.
+
So after losing his tenure at the School of Sorcery, this malevolent mastermind took it upon himself to dig up the very essence of fear and destruction in the minds and hearts of Gnawnians: dragons!
  
−
'''Crescent Cheese'''<br/>
+
The King is now calling upon all MouseHunters ranked Viceroy and above to travel to the new '''Draconic Depths''' and stop this invasion before it takes flight.
−
Crescent cheese is crafted by combining three Meteorite Pieces and three Curds and Whey. It has an attraction rate slightly better than Gouda during night and will lure a few more mice that drop valuable resources and loot.
 
  
−
'''Moon Cheese'''<br/>
+
==== Prepare for your Descent ====
−
Moon Cheese is crafted by combining one Meteorite Piece, three Curds and Whey, and two Magic Essence. It has a near-perfect attraction rate during night and will lure more mice that drop valuable resources and loot!
+
The '''Tale of the First Dragons''' map piece can be purchased from the School of Sorcery Cartographer for '''1,000,000 Gold''', '''1,000 Sorcerer's Sapphires''', and requires completion of the Become a Master Sorcerer adventure for any hunters who have yet to obtain it.

==== New Dragon Hunting Gear at the New Trapsmith ====
−
:Avoid the Battering Ram Mouse!
+
The Trapsmith at the Draconic Depths is well prepared to aid the MouseHunters of Gnawnia in their daunting task to descend into this dangerous den of dragons!
−
*'''250 Moon Cheese'''
 
−
:Collect more loot!
 
  
−
'''Other Cheeses and the Battering Ram Mouse'''<br/>
+
<!-- 2x2 grid table -->
−
Lurking throughout the night is the fearsome Battering Ram Mouse. This mouse has been specially-trained by being constantly exposed to light from the moon in order to keep him in his enraged state. At night, when the moon is out, this mouse will charge headlong towards your fort, unimpeded by traps, and will always cause damage to your wall even if captured!

−
However, if you use Crescent or Moon Cheese, the presence of two sources of moonlight will confuse this mouse and send him into a blind, uncontrollable rage, causing him to flee from the battlefield altogether, screaming incoherently.
