[FADE IN, RANDOM OSI SHARD]

Fizban attempts what seems like his 1,000,000th Trick-or-Treat attempt.  I guess he should have thought to raise begging first.



After a full day of wandering aimlessly from vender to vender, Fizban decides to call it an evening.  He sat sleepily in a chair next to the bed, just too tired to even think about getting up and moving to the bed.  His eyes drooped as sleep assaulted him.



A strange sensation envelopes you as you realize you're no longer in the same land.  "What, where's my red robes?"  This looks like Blackthorn Castle, but there's something menacingly evil going on.  Plus the banker is a Balron, so that's different.

Ah, Quest givers!  They are asking for some pretty creepy things, but heck this is a dream.

Hey what's this?



[Evil sounds......]
Wait? What's that?



Wow, free resurrection and corpse acquisition!  Neat!



Welcome to the RebirthUO Halloween Event 2016
Yes, this is the 2nd annual Halloween Bash.  Last year Crome969 and yours truly (TM) put together a no-holds-barred Halloween event that includes:


* Complete reward system based upon any creatures you find in Blackthorn Castle, the Forsaken or Newbie Lord British castle
* Turn in lesser rewards in exchange for artifact-quality rewards and mounts
* Fully customized Halloween-themed dungeon containing at least 5 mini-Champion spawns including 1 that's considered un-soloable
* Custom designed kill-quests that halloween artifacts and unique items for Halloween
* Hourly and daily massive invasion spawns in both Blackthorn castle and The Forsaken
* Unique stealable items located throughout the Halloween event
* Any graveyard across Britania has the possibility of spawning undead skeletons with an actual player character's name.  There is a possibility of acquiring a bone contaner labeled with that players name.  Collect them all!
New for 2016

* Starting in Haven, new player quests have been added especially for new players.  Quickly advance a mage so within 24 hours you can be building your RebirthUO empire and fully experiencing all that our Halloween event has to offer!
* Lord British Castle has been haunted with the spirit of Halloween.  Once you get your character built up a bit, this castle area will allow the new player to ease into the event without being harassed by the full force of The Forsaken dungeon.  The newbie dungeon has "Watchers" that strictly enforce that new players are allowed within the Newbie Castle.
* A newbie quest found within the Newbie Castle will reward the character completing it the most with a custom made and personalize deco item at the end of the event.
* Many new kill quests
* Newly added stealables thoughout!
* A secret portal to our Solen Invasion event.  It doesn't drop Halloween stuff, but you can bulk up on your powder of translocation and get interesting artifacts
* A secret teleporter to Doom Gauntlet.  I'm not telling where, but you'll be compelled to discover it yourself.
So the main thing you do through out this event is KILL.  Rewards are automatically added to your pack, so looting is optional.  You should loot and evaluate the normal treasure drop since RebirthUO now has the same or similar loot quality as a traditional OSI shard.  So if you're poor, now is a great time to build up your fortune!

So get a head start now by jumping on RebirthUO and starting a character.  The noobie quests are online *NOW*, so you can easily be prepared by the 31st.  (Yes, I tested from a ZERO skill character - 24hours including script GM of magery)

So if you are really tired of Trick-or-treating and want to actually play some fun Halloween content, please come and give RebirthUO a go.

Hey!  Good to see someone else got the memo!  :)  Would love for you to come back and give the event a go.  Ghost and Grunt need playmates anyhow, so you'll have some company especially this month.  Plus you can come get your noob on in the noobie castle (kinda like a deadly bounce-house)  lol.

What have you been playing since Rebirth?

I've been watching one of the Hitech army trying to break into the noob castle now for a while.  Just doesn't get old.  :)
