'Tis the Season of Giving!

For the month of December, Ironbeard and the Gnodfather are once again competing for Solstice domination! But this time you don't have to buy stockings to participate, you will be getting a stocking every time you complete all of your dailies for the day throughout December. And during the holidays themselves, HAPPYHOLIDAYS will be active once more and you will be able to claim a few just by inputting that.
The stockings can be hung in manses, and commune and city rooms, max of 1 per room.
Syntax: HANG <stocking> FOR <ME|person> [ANONYMOUS]
Syntax: STOCKINGS (to help track your stockings)
At midnight, the person it was hung for can UNWRAP <stocking> and get their reward:
- 2 Iron Coins
- 1 Macaron Curio piece
- a standard present OR a peppermint/coal piece
For every 5 stockings that you hang, you will receive either a gold stocking that will open on December 25th or a platinum stocking that will open on New Year's Day.
These extra special gold and platinum stockings will contain:
- 3 Iron Coins
- 2 Macaron Curio pieces
- peppermint piece OR coal piece
- a glowing present
Peppermint and coal can be combined to create special Solstice artifacts (see HELP SOLSTICEARTIFACTS). Meanwhile, glowing presents, when opened, will give you a greater chance of receiving a better present without resetting your present counter. Additionally, 10 other players in your room will also receive a normal present to open at the same time! Spread the joy and cheer to everyone this year!
Throughout December you can also enjoy a variety of boons during the entire week (see HELP PROMODAYS for the details). These are as follows:
- Klangratch's Mighty Mondays
- Double Experience Tuesdays
- Shanth's Harmonious Wednesdays
- Tzaraziko's Unexpected Thursdays
- Fated Fridays
Keep your eyes peeled for more announcements as we have a lot more planned for December!
