NEWSPOST OPENING LINE(S)
  
A particularly icy Festive Comet has crashed into the Rodentia Ocean, obliterating the S.S. Huntington III! Fortunately, the King's Royal Astronomers observed that the comet was off-course and would land in the ocean instead of its usual landing spot near the castle. This allowed the King's Royal Engineers to construct a replacement ship ahead of time with the ample supply of Splintered Wood in the King's Royal Sawmill. You can find the new and improved S.S. Huntington IV just north of its previous location.

However, the trouble didn't end with just the destruction of a beloved ship... A troublesome sculptor mouse has setup base within the icy wreckage and has begun to sculpt animated icebergs to send on a collision course with Gnawnia!

CONTENT OF PARAGRAPH
  
The Iceberg Sculptor Mouse's plan of attack involves 10 increasingly larger icebergs, sculpted into festive shapes. To destroy the icebergs, you'll need to send out magical Snow Golems to safely collect Explosive Christmas Crackers. Each iceberg sculpture is larger than the last, requiring more crackers to explode.
+
-- {{MHP|POSTER SNUID|POSTER NAME}}
  
The 10th iceberg in the sculptor's fleet is a fortified art studio where the sculptor himself is hiding. Blast the walls of this icy fortress to confront the Iceberg Sculptor Mouse and seize the Iceberg Sculptor's Pick!
+
----
  
Each pick you recover from the Iceberg Sculptor Mouse can be used to chisel open one of four frozen boxes of decorations which can be used to decorate your Golem Generator HUD. While decorated, your generators will attract different breeds of festive mice carrying a variety of sugar cookies.

Defeating the Iceberg Sculptor Mouse will recover a pick which can be used to break the ice off crates of decorations in the heads-up display to decorate your golem generators.
+
The following changes have happened in the Taiga:
 +
*Mice are no longer dropping Golem Parts or Pecan Pecorino
 +
*Mice in Cinnamon Hill are no longer dropping Compressed Cinnamon
  
Depending on which decoration you have active, different mice will visit your trap. These mice carry one of four sugar cookies which you can use to purchase a number of festive rewards from the Trapsmith, General Store, and other shoppes.
+
The following things will remain the same '''until January 16''' when the event shuts down completely:
 +
*Golems can still be built and sent out
 +
*Cinnamon can still power the Forges in the Golem Part Workshop
 +
*Hailstones can still be fired at the Ice Fortress</div>
  
======Golem Guardian Trap (Limited Edition)======
 
Adventure Reward
 
This very unique trap can put the power of golems to use year-round. Depending on which skin the trap has equipped, the guardian trap will take on a different Power Type and begin constructing a formidable snow golem warrior to hunt mice.
 
  
Each hunt you take with the trap will increase its charge and as a result increase its Power, Luck, Power Bonus, and Attraction Bonus. Once fully charged, a unique golem will emerge from the trap signalling it has reached full strength!

Only one skin for the Golem Guardian Trap can be fully charged at a time. Upon changing the skin, each hunt taken with the Golem Guardian Trap will reduce the charge of all other skins which hold any charge while increasing the charge of the currently active skin. Charge levels will only increase or decrease while hunting and swapping skins will not reset charge.
+
Hunters can continue to send out Snow Golems until the event ends completely.
  
Each skin provides different maximum stats and it takes 500 hunts to fully charge a skin.
