Warhammer
Online: Age of Reckoning Announces Halloween Live Event – Daemon Moon Rising
The Moon Rises and Chaos Reigns
October 23rd through November 2nd
Mythic Entertainment today announced
that the critically acclaimed MMORPG, Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning (WAR),
will host a special live event, Daemon Moon Rising, for a limited time during
the 2009 Halloween season. Daemon Moon Rising, will run in-game from October
23rd through November 2nd, and will feature the Daemon Mask event quest, a new
Daemonball Rally Public Quest, a special Realm vs. Realm scenario, and treats
both fair and foul.
In Daemon Moon Rising, a fiendish
sub-cult of Chaos artificers have bound savage daemons into innocuous carnival
masks and smuggled them into the Empire. The Daemon Mask event quest will task
players with collecting these possessed masks and defeating the daemons bound
within. As a reward for halting the menace of the masks, players will receive a
souvenir Daemon Mask and a chance to discover the rare and powerful Magus
Daemonarium within a sack of sinister secrets.
The Daemonball Rally Public Quest
will pit players of Order and Destruction versus one another in a battle to
seize the Daemon Cradle and empower the essence of nightmares against their
opponents.
“This is a terrifying time of year
within the world of Warhammer and the Daemon Moon Rising live event is our way
of fighting against the darkness that encompasses the land,” said Jeff Hickman,
Executive Producer for Mythic Entertainment. “We call on all players to rise up
against the malevolent creatures that threaten the land and keep safe the
Realms. But beware, for under the cold, dark madness of the Daemon Moon,
anything can happen!”
Players can also don their masks and
participate in “Wake the Dead”, a special running of the High Pass Cemetery RvR
scenario available to characters of all tiers during the Daemon Moon Rising live
event.
Other fiendish rewards available to
event participant include: the Fiendfang with bonus to healing, damage, renown,
and XP; the Face of the Unborn mask; the Meatcleaver’s mask; the Face-Eater’s
mask; the arcane Malleus Daemonarium; and special talisman components imbued
with the might of Chaos itself.
