Frostfell

"Frostfell is coming, the vulrich is getting fat! Please to put a copper in the old gnome's hat!"

It's Frostfell Time in Norrath, again! Song fills the air, Norrathians bustle to purchase that special gift and all the fixing for their feast, and those Frostfell Elves are out in force once more, bring cheer and gifts of the season to one and all. Heck, even Lord Nagafen wants in on the festivities!

Frostfell is the Live Event for December, first run in 2005, in celebration of the winter holidays (Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Winter Solstice, and even Festivus).

Snowball Fights and More!
Scattered about the city zones you will find harvestable stacks of snowballs (on about a 1-minute respawn timer). Gather them to get a pile of 20 Snowballs (which stack in 100s now). When you target a mob, or another player, and use the snowball you will throw a snowball at the target causing them to run one of several different animations including shaking a fist at the thrower or being knocked down! Get your guild together for a Frostfell party and have a snowball fight contest!

Or if you prefer something a little more than a snowball, you can craft a Sturdy Fruitcake to pitch at your fellow Norrathians. A more hefty hit the the face, these fruitcakes will cause the player (or NPC -- try one of each on your favorite city guard!) to fall to the ground in shock.

2005: The Tale of the Gigglegibber Grump
The 2005 Frostfell storyline dealt with the case of the Gigglegibber Grump. This quest line was started in Qeynos Harbor or West Freeport. It was not available as part of the 2006 or 2007 Frostfell adventures, but returned in 2008. Main quest was followed by several layers of subquests as follows, all of which scaled to the player level:


 * 1) The Tale of the Gigglegibber Grump
 * Unlocking the Elfin Lord
 * Gigglegibber Mayor
 * Gigglegibber Melodies
 * Making Coins
 * Subterranian Underwater Vessel
 * 1) Removing the Grump

2006:

 * ...With apologies to Charles Dickens

The storyline from Frostfell 2006 centered upon the NPC, Mr. McScroogle. In Qeynos Harbor, West Freeport, Haven, and Kelethin (outside Jysolin's Pub not far from Granite Hills Acorn Lift), players would visit the giant Frostfell Tree and find a magic wardrobe. As in Narnia, they would step through (click) the wardrobe to be transported to the Frostfell Wonderland Village!

Players would then seek out Mr. McScroogle on an island at the back of the village, talk to him, and be transported to his home AS HIM (in an illusion form). Therein would begin the major quest for the season,, where players were visited by 3 ghosts of Frostfell past, present and future.
