<p>As the last flake of snow at the Festive Comet melted, the Great Winter Hunt has been called to an end. The King hopes everyone enjoyed this first festive celebration!</p>
 
 
<p>You may still exchange your 12 Days 'til Christmas items with Larry by clicking the link that is currently being displayed at the top of every page. The Festive Gift Shoppe will officially close within the next few hours (approximately 12am EST).</p>
 
 
<p>The issue preventing some hunters from collecting a second set of gingerbread blueprints after failing to craft a gingerbread item has now been resolved. Some remaining Christmas Tree Mice have been reported to be running around the Harbour in an attempt to spread festive cheer. These Christmas Tree mice are also carrying gingerbread blueprints. If you're looking to collect a set of blueprints, head to the Harbour.</p>
 
 
<p>Ronza was feeling so welcomed by MouseHunters she wanted to keep her New Year's celebration going even longer! She stocked up on the King's Reserve Bubbleh and plans to keep her party going until Monday, January 4th. If you need to do any last minute shopping, visit her shoppe now before she leaves.</p>
 
 
<p>This has been one of the most fun events ever held. A big thanks to each and every MouseHunter for making the Great Winter Hunt such a fun time here in Gnawnia!</p>

<blockquote>
 
<p>Ronza's shipment of Chrome DrillBots has arrived! She is now selling this sleek-looking, limited edition trap so visit her shoppe today!</p>
 
 
 
<p>Ronza also received a small shipment of 2010 Blastoff Traps and Firecracker bases which she was planning to sell to celebrate the new year. The small shipment was intercepted by some mischievous mice who stole the rockets and firecrackers! Ronza is still investigating what mouse stole the supplies, be on the lookout for suspects.</p>
 
 
 
<hr />
 
 
 
<p>A recent change to how loot drops work has caused gingerbread blueprints to not drop for any hunters who once obtained them but lost them by failing to craft the base/house. We are currently working on correcting the problem. Once the problem is corrected you'll once again be able to collect a second set of blueprints.</p>

=== Larry the Trapsmith?! ===
 
''{{date|23|December|2009}}''
 
<blockquote>
 
<p>It seems the Festive Comet sparked a creative curiosity with everyone's favourite hunting helper Larry! With all the strange items being discovered within the layers of snow at the comet, Larry devised a trap to fit the festive season that he is calling "The Christmas Cracker Trap".</p>
 
 
 
<p>Larry would be happy to construct a Christmas Cracker Trap for you if you have managed to collect all 12 items from the 12 Days of Christmas. He is also willing to exchange a few pieces of SUPER|brie+ from his own personal stash (it's all he hunts with!) for each of your Festive Items. Make your choice wisely. You will be '''unable''' to collect any of the 12 items again once you have exchanged them.</p>
 
 
 
<p>All of the items from the 12 Days 'til Christmas event will continue to be dropped for the remainder of the Great Winter Hunt. The items become a little more scarce each day, so if you're missing one or two items don't wait until the last minute to move to the Festive Comet.</p>
 
 
 
'''You can exchange your festive items with Larry here:'''
 
http://apps.facebook.com/mousehunt/xmasclaim.php
 
 
 
 
 
<p>But it seems Larry is not the only person offering some new festive trap options...</p>
 
 
 
<p>With all the excitement of the Great Winter Hunt '''Ronza''' has decided to visit Gnawnia early so she take part in all the festive fun!</p>
 
 
 
<p>Her shop is currently stocked with two festive items: The Snowglobe Trap and the Candy Cane Base.</p>
 
 
 
<p>Due to her early arrival, Ronza is still waiting on a delivery of new stock. You'll notice a few items in her shop labeled as "Coming Soon". The arrival of new stock will be announced via the scrolling news ticker at the top of the page.</p>
 
 
 
<p>Wow! The Great Winter Hunt has been packed full of festive fun! Happy Holiday Hunting!</p>

<blockquote>
<p>Still struggling to find that perfect gift for someone in your Hunting Party? Well then head over to the Festive Gift Shoppe and browse their latest stock of novelty gift ideas.</p>
 
  
<p>There are items for any budget! From a 500 gold greeting card to a solid gold brick worth 250,000 gold!</p>

'''Viceroy hunters and above can now embark on a new adventure.'''<br>
 +
A new area has released in the Folklore Forest!
  
<p>'''The new items include:'''</p>
+
==== The Draconic Depths has Surfaced! ====
 +
Thanks to Ronza's tireless efforts, the Mythweaver's latest plot has been discovered and it is unfolding beneath our very feet.
  
* Reindeer Slippers - Because hunting in the Mountains is the leading cause of chilled feet.
+
Instead of invading a world of fantasy yet again, this time the Mythweaver plans to invade the world with fantasy!
  
* Yule Log - Loaded with enough sugar to keep you energetic during those long tournament competitions.
+
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!
  
* Festive Retraining Order - Know someone who constantly begs for gold or posts on your cork board too frequently? Wish them happy holidays from 500 feet away at all times.
+
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.
  
* Toy Ronza Ship - Have a friend with an unhealthy Ronza obsession? Then this is the perfect gift!
+
==== Prepare for your Descent ====
 +
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.
  
* Gold Brick - Who says you can't buy friendship? Dropping 250,000 gold on a completely useless gold brick makes a bold statement! Every time your friend sees a gold brick in their inventory they'll be sure to think of you.
+
==== New Dragon Hunting Gear at the New Trapsmith ====
 +
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!
  
<p>'''All the new items are entirely novelty collectables. None of the novelty gifts will have a practical use to help your hunting in the future, so don't stress if you don't receive any as gifts.'''</p>

<p>Larry seems especially interested in discovering a use for the 12 items and has been spotted at the Festive Comet baiting a trap. Larry's research, although enthusiastic, is proving to not be the most insightful -- He has upgraded his theory about the items from "They make something" to "They make something cool".

<p>A final piece of advice offered by the scientists of Digby: the 12 new items are each discovered as a new layer of the comet melts. The items are no doubt most abundant when they are first discovered and become less abundant once the layer has entirely melted and the next item has been discovered. So remember -- don't wait until the last minute to hunt at the comet!</p>

=== 12 Days 'til Christmas Event ===

==== Stock up on Dragon Slaying Supplies! ====
''{{date|12|December|2009}}''

The King has assembled some limited time bundles to aid in your noble quest!
<blockquote>
 
<p>The 12 days 'til Christmas event starts today at the Festive Comet!</p>
 
  
<p>Most hunters have noticed that the Festive Comet has been slowly melting for the past several days, but what has gone unnoticed until now is the peculiar way in which the comet has been melting. Digby's finest scientists have been stationed at the Festive Comet since its landing and were the first to discover the comet's odd melting pattern.</p>

 +
|}
  
<p>The scientists of Digby's discovery was that the comet has been melting in layers, as though the mighty comet had slowly been growing while on its crash-course with Gnawnia. Each layer has slightly different density and appears to have different melting rates. The fascinating coincidence is that the next 12 layers all appear to have the same melting rate of approximately 24 hours!</p>

<p>What does this mean to those hunting at the Festive Comet? You can expect a new layer of snow to melt each and everyday! What is the significance of a layer melting? Well, as the comet flew through festive outer-space it smashed its way through 12 rings of debris in the Friendly Festive Galaxy of Fantastic Fancy items! (Scientists are still debating on a final name). As the comet passed through each ring, massive amounts of festive debris stuck to the comet and quickly became incased in snow, causing the comet to grow in size.</p>

<p>As each of the next 12 layers of snow melt, the festive item trapped within each layer is sure to be quickly found by mice. Larry, who always seems to have a knack for foreshadowing events has predicted that these 12 items will inevitably make what he has called "something".</p>

=== Blueprints Discovered as Comet Melts! ===

In the Draconic Depths, Baitkeep Charms have a 50% chance of activating and saving your bait when used. However, whenever they don't activate, the charm '''will not''' be consumed, keeping it intact for the next hunt.
''{{date|08|December|2009}}''
 
<blockquote>
 
<p>As the Festive Comet slowly melts, the mice there have come across some new, interesting items! According to the reports pouring in from researchers stationed on the comet, the mice have unearthed blueprints detailing how to construct hunting gear out of planks of gingerbread.</p>
 
 
 
<p>Various mice at the Festive Comet have been spotted using the scraps of blueprint as nesting material. The prints are somewhat rare at the moment, but researchers are confident that as more of the comet melts, more blueprints will be discovered.</p>
 
 
 
<p>Who knows what other festive surprises are waiting under layers of snow? Head over to the Festive Comet, and good luck hunting!</p>

=== The Great Winter Hunt '09 ===

<blockquote>
 
<p>'''Welcome all to the first, annual, Great Winter Hunt!'''</p>
 
 
 
<p>"The Festive Comet" earlier discovered by those kooky Digby scientists has landed and we are all still here and hunting!</p>
 
 
 
<p>The collision with Gnawnia has caused massive amounts of global "heart" warming as a sudden wave of festive cheer has attracted a variety of old and new mice to the area!</p>
 
 
 
<p>'''Event Details:'''</p>
 
 
 
<p>New area is now available! From the travel page in the Gnawnia region you can now reach "The festive comet"! (open to all hunter ranks). All of the seasonal mice have come out of hibernation now that the comet has struck. They will stay with the comet until it melts before returning back to hibernation until the next time.</p>
 
 
 
<p>These festive mice love to collect the various items brought to gnawnia by the comet. They are used to make their special gingerbread homes as well as tasty treats that these mice find completely irresistible!</p>
 
 
 
<p>The Digby scientists have also sent various recovery teams to the site, gathering and researching all of the newly discovered wonders. They are making these items available for you to send to friends and have come up with a pretty ingenious recipe already with more on the way!</p>
 
 
 
<p>Quote from Timmy, lead Digby Reasearcher, "These new planks of gingerbread are quite astonishing! Incredibly strong and resilient! Also quite tasty, flavorful and rich in aroma! Smashing these planks into smaller, more manageable pieces creates the perfect treat for the holidays!"</p>
 
 
 
<p>The scientists also believe, given enough time, that they should be able to use this new "gingerbread", as well as including some of the other festive items, to capture the essence of the holiday and create some most interesting trap components!</p>
 
 
 
<p>Some of the regular inhabitants of Gnawnia have been seen adorning themselves with the debris from the comet, almost instinctually, unable to resist their sparkle and shine. Proudly parading themselves for all to see, can you catch them all?</p>
 
 
 
<p>Happy Holiday Hunting!</p>

<p>As most hunters have no doubt noticed by now Ronza has left the Kingdom. She wanted to thank everyone for the warm welcome and hoped the stowaway Rockstars that arrived along with her didn't cause too much trouble.</p>
 
  
<p>A few Rockstars still seem to be partying around the Kingdom. If you have some Rockforth cheese left you may just be able to attract one of the few remaining Rockstars to your trap. The remaining Rockstar mice still have Ronza's Satchels of Surprize!</p>

The Draconic Depths has Surfaced!

13 August 2024

Viceroy hunters and above can now embark on a new adventure.
A new area has released in the Folklore Forest!

The Draconic Depths has Surfaced!

Thanks to Ronza's tireless efforts, the Mythweaver's latest plot has been discovered and it is unfolding beneath our very feet.

Instead of invading a world of fantasy yet again, this time the Mythweaver plans to invade the world with fantasy!

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!

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.

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.

Seismic effects on Baitkeep Charms

The intense seismic activity within the Draconic Depths has an effect on Baitkeep Charms when they're used within the Draconic Depths.

In the Draconic Depths, Baitkeep Charms have a 50% chance of activating and saving your bait when used. However, whenever they don't activate, the charm will not be consumed, keeping it intact for the next hunt.

Here Be Dragons!
