Seasonal Events are events that occur in game over a short period of time. The shortest events are a single real-life day, others may last for a weekend or a month. Many Seasonal Events can be considered semi-scheduled. These events are pre-planned by Developers to occur at certain times of year or to activate every few months. Progress on Game updates can delay or speed up the schedule though. Information on player-organized events can be found on the Community Events page.

Weekend Events

Civil Service - Periodically, adventurers of Alharth are called to help the Civil Service. During this event often held in late spring and early fall, volunteers are tasked with delving into dungeons to defeat a selection of powerful foes in exchange for rewards. This event is on a four-month rotation.

Crafting Caravan - The Crafting Caravan is a Seasonal Event that introduces adventurers to a group of traveling artisans and merchants. Participants complete crafting quests for the artisans in exchange for tokens which can be exchanged for specialty goods. This event is on a four-month rotation.

Garden Invasion - Event: Garden Invasion is a Seasonal Event that usually occurs in early Spring, and sometimes a second time in mid-Fall. Alongside Event: Bun-Fu Training, the Garden Invasion is a source for

Bunny Juice (Brown Fur)

, allowing players to transform into the Rabbit beast form.

Golf - Pennoc's Pennant - Pennoc's Pennant is a dwarven Golf Tournament held by Pennoc. This event is usually held in April or May.

Invasion of the World Bosses - Invasion of the World Bosses occurs when an unknown probably-magical phenomena causes tremendously powerful copies of named creatures to appear across Alharth. Named World Bosses, these mighty foes always appear like clockwork once defeated, suggesting a higher purpose to their summoning. This event is on a four-month rotation.

Spider Hunt - Spider Hunt is a Seasonal Event where adventurers are tasked with finding wayward Spiders of Akhisa journeying across Alharth.

Suspicious Lemons - Occasionally, Suspicious Lemons appear across Alharth. During this Seasonal Event, interacting with one of these lemons grants a buff, experience, or an item. Usually, finding all the hidden lemons grants a special reward. This event can happen any time during a year at the whims of the Developers.

Long-term Events

Summer Experience

Halloween

Zhia Lian, the goddess of whimsy, gives you some quests. Each quest you complete leads to more quest branches. At the end of the event, there is a party in the Red Wing Casino. For more details, see the Halloween page.

Fall Harvest

Turkey Hunt

Winter Holiday Season

Ri-Shin

NPCs you have sufficiently high Favor with will give you a gift when you interact with them during this event.

During this Winter Holiday, in each settlement there is a Ri-Shin tree. An NPC wearing a Ri-Shin hat gives you a quest to gather materials to decorate it with. Once you decorate a tree, you can collect one gift per real world day from it.

Event: Shrine of Ri-Shin is available during this event. Gain access to the Shrine of Ri-Shin by completing tree-decorating quests or being a Druid. The Shrine will ask players to contribute a sum total of various plants and materials. The more you give to the tree, the more storage slots available for all players until next Ri-Shin festival.
