Halloween on Guild Wars
Warning. This blog article is a bit… geeky. Some of my friends, my sister, and myself play a fun game called Guild Wars. It’s an online game where you create a character and take on a world of monsters and quests with your friends. You can be a warrior, ranger, or different kinds of spellcasters. I happen to be a Necromancer/Ranger. What that basically means, is I can cast wicked spells and also shoot a bow and arrow and train animal companions. I told you! This is a geeky article.
Well it was especially fun to play tonight, because there were all kinds of Halloween festivities. The Mad King Thorn (a really tall guy with a jack-o-lantern for a head) shows up every 3 hours and you play charades and get trick-or-treat bags with goodies in them. He stays for half an hour, and when he leaves he gives you a parting gift– a Halloween mask. I guess it’s a different mask each year. This year is was a scarecrow mask.
Above is a picture of my character wearing his scarecrow mask, and employing the help of the Mad King’s guards– giant candycorn elementals. Hahaha… fun times.
