<p>'''The Year of the Dragon Festival Ends Gloriously!'''</p>
 
 
 
<p>It has truly been a grand celebration. The sky was lit up like never before, and the King was delighted to have seen so many hunters gathered to celebrate this Lunar New Year. It was also a treat to see the costumed mice celebrating with us, even if they caused quite a bit of trouble...</p>
 
 
 
<p>Hunters who still have Firecracker, Nitropop, or Dragon Breath charms can use them in their regular, everyday hunting for a boost to their trap's power!</p>
 
 
 
<p>On behalf of the King, we'd like to thank all hunters that participated, and we hope you had a wonderful Lunar New Year!</p>

=== Ronza's Ship Weighed Down with Gold ===
 
''{{date|03|February|2012}}''
 
<blockquote>
 
<p>It appears that Ronza's airship has become too heavy to lift off! Although she has unloaded most of her stock, Gnawnian gold is unusually heavy! Over the last four days, hunters have spent more than 200 billion gold on Ronza's wares, making her ship extremely heavy!</p>
 
 
 
<p>Ronza has employed the help of the Scientists of Digby to retro-fit her airship with stronger propellers and a new type of gas to fill her blimp. These upgrades will provide the necessary vertical lift to make it off the ground.</p>
 
 
 
<p>The Scientists of Digby have indicated that they will be finished the airship modifications by Sunday, February 5th, 5pm (GMT).</p>
 
 
 
<p>This will be a hunter's absolute last chance to buy her wares, so make sure to visit her shoppe before she leaves on Sunday!</p>

=== RONZA HAS ARRIVED! ===
 
''{{date|31|January|2012}}''
 
<blockquote>
 
<p>After searching the globe for wares, Ronza has finally returned to Gnawnia where she has setup shop next to the castle!</p>
 
 
 
<p>Many of Ronza's items are Limited Edition, meaning that once her airship leaves, those items will never be available again! Keep reading for more information on her wares, then be sure to visit her shop, browse her wares, and purchase any items you like!</p>
 
==== Ronza's Stock of Bases and Weapons ====
 
'''[[Jade Base]]'''
 
 
 
<p>This magnificent jade has been mined from far and distant lands. Its polished surface is sure to make dodging your trap more difficult for mice.</p>
 
 
 
 
 
'''[[Dragon Jade Base]]'''
 
 
 
<p>To celebrate the Year of the Dragon, Ronza sought out a Trapsmith capable of carving jade to create a base capable of providing +10 luck while also providing an impressive power bonus!</p>
 
 
 
<p>Purchasing this unique base follows a slightly different process. You hand over in a Jade Base, and a hunter must also possess a [[Dragon Seal]], proving they can handle the enchantment powering this base.</p>
 
 
 
<p>The Dragon Jade Base is not a ware to be missed and is sure to become a new favourite for many hunters across the Kingdom!</p>
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
'''[[Chrome Tacky Glue Trap]]'''
 
 
 
<p>Simple and minimalistic, but far from subtle. This modified Tacky Glue Trap features a key ingredient — pure, liquified chrome — to give it a flashy look and a bonus to its luck.</p>
 
 
 
<p>If you're an inexperienced hunter looking for a lucky trap, or just a collector of shiny things, this trap is sure to please!</p>
 
 
 
 
 
'''[[Warpath Thrasher]]'''
 
 
 
<p>This odd-looking trap has been specifically designed for battling hordes of the Marching Flame. During the beginning of each wave, this trap receives a massive bonus to both its power and luck that diminish as mice are removed from the wave.</p>
 
 
 
<p>At the beginning of each Warpath Wave, the Warpath Thrasher has 9,000 power and 30 luck! However, as you catch mice, the Warpath Thrasher becomes less effective and its power and luck will reduce. When using this weapon, keep an eye on your trap's stats to know when it's time to switch to a more conventional weapon.</p>
 
 
 
 
 
'''[[Chrome RhinoBot]]'''
 
 
 
<p>At long last, the third installment in Ronza's ChromeBot series has arrived!</p>
 
 
 
<p>The Chrome RhinoBot's luxurious look and intricate gold detailing is a great way to hunt with style. The shine of its extraordinarily bright chrome is only surpassed by the shiner it leaves on any mice caught in its path!</p>
 
 
 
 
 
==== Ronza's Unique Charms ====
 
 
 
<p>In addition to bases and weapons, Ronza has a selection of unique and powerful charms, including a crate of 20 Ultimate Luck Charms that you can acquire by trading in your Ronza Voucher obtained during the Great Winter Hunt.</p>
 
 
 
<p>Of particular interest are mysterious Tarnished Charms that seem to not carry any useful bonuses with them until they have been polished. Try arming a few while hunting, then check your inventory where some new shiny charms have appeared and are waiting for you!</p>
 
 
 
 
 
==== Rockstar Mice Join the Party at the Dragon Festival ====
 
 
 
<p>Rockstar Mice love a good party! It did not take long for several Rockstars to jump off Ronza's ship and join the celebration at the Year of the Dragon Festival. Attracting one to your trap, however, requires an especially rockin' bait! Hunt aboard Ronza's ship where you can find Rockforth Cheese as loot. With Rockforth armed, you can then attract Rockstar Mice at the Dragon Festival!</p>
 
 
 
<p>'''REMEMBER''': Due to the extreme volume of this cheese, a hunter may not have more than 99 pieces at a time.</p>
