NCsoft Gives Players Plenty of Tricks and Treats this Halloween
Aion – Harvest Revel
During the Fall harvest, the people of Atreia have always celebrated the bounty
of the land. Years ago, the joy of the annual revels was troubled by an
eclipse—a peculiar and magical eclipse that brought darkness to Asmodae and
Elysea. Ever since, for days during Harvest Revel, the sky goes dark and the
people of Atreia join in the hunt.
Asmodians celebrate the bounty through the Wild Hunt, racing after the Wild
Kurthanir hunt leader and cooking special dishes made from the meat. On the
other side of Atreia, the Elyos encounter undead creatures pulled back into a
semblance of life by the power of the eclipse. Elyos must join roving Dark Night
bands to hunt and destroy the undead before they invade Elyos villages.
Each day during Harvest Revel players will be rewarded for their investment with
new lore and tasty treats including a Halloween Hat and candy that will
transform players into in game creatures!
- Starts: Sunday, October 25, 2009
- Ends: Saturday, October 31, 2009

Guild Wars – The Return of Mad King Thorn
It’s Halloween in Tyria, and that means one thing: the return of Mad King Thorn
! Similar to years past, the maniacal monarch has come to play, and he’s got a
bag full of tricks and treats to delight and dismay. But non-tricksters fear
not, there are plenty of ways to celebrate Halloween – participate in several
special events (a new series of quests and a costume PvP brawl) or explore the
decorated cities/towns adorned with Halloween décor.

and other foul denizens descend upon Paragon City and the Rogue Isles. This year
they're bringing even more powerful allies! The new apocalypse is deadlier than
