I am a sucker for a good in game event. I’ve run around WoW looking for easter eggs, stupid candy hearts and gifts under the tree in Org. I’ve trick or treated in City of Heroes. I’ve ran around with a witches hat in Guild Wars. So I’m very happy that Aion will be having in game holiday events. There aren’t much details on exactly what will happen but here is the info they’ve posted on the powerwiki.
During the fall harvest, from time immemorial, the people of Atreia have 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 peoples of Atreia join the hunt. Asmodians find soothing peace during the dark days of the Harvest Revel. They celebrate by racing after the Wild Kurthanir hunt leader during the Wild Hunt and cooking special traditional dishes. Elyos endure the dark days because during them the dead of Elysea are restless. Undead creatures rise from the grave every few hours, 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. Log in each day during Harvest Revel. Celebrate with us and every day rewards your investment with new Aion lore and tasty treats! Harvest Revel Begin: October 25, 2009 End: October 31, 2009 May your wings be strong and swift! We’ll see you in Atreia!

Woot! Can’t wait.
P.S. It really annoys me that I can’t get my screenshots to look centered even though I’ve told it 50 million times to center. Grrrr!!!
The other night I went into Fire Temple with a few of my legion mates. I was lucky enough to face Vile Judge Kormede at the end, not once but TWICE! Eeeeeeeee!!!! Yes I am a lore geek and I squealed with delight on vent when I saw her. I’ve been holding off posting this only because I wanted to put up some info on her as well. Unfortunately I lost my link to the Aion Lore Wiki I found a while back that had her full story and I can’t seem to find it anywhere. I love it when we get to go up against iconic in game characters. What I can tell you is she didn’t drop a damn thing the two times we killed her that night.
