Ghallanda Holiday Event!

[Tom116]

Hi Everyone,

So I was reading the dev tracker came across an event by Lady Sorrows (https://www.ddo.com/forums/member.ph...81-LadySorrows), I thought it was great so I decided to host one on Ghallanda

Basically it will be a server-wide secret santa. Anyone that wants to participate simply needs to PM and/or post on the thread me their character's name and class (for a more class-appropriate gift) by December 18, on December 19th I'll be sending everyone the names of the character they are sending the gift too, and then on December 20th you send your gift out. I will send in-game mail to each of the participating characters giving them the name of the character they send the gift to.

The gift can be anything reasonable, because I wouldn't expect a brand new level 1 character to be able to get their hands on some EE weapon. Just use your judgement and pick something that you feel would be a decent gift.

One character per person please. I will be using the honor system for this event, so please be kind to others.

I would like to assume that everyone will be friendly in the spirit of this winter-time event, but in the case that you don't have your present within a couple days of December 20 please let me know and I will personally send you something.

The mail that tells you who your gift is to be sent to will be sent from either Kestros or Aerle, if it isn't from them then it isn't legit

Thank you,
Tom116

Sounds like fun, and I'd love to send something to somebody for the holidays.

Me: Talisker, Paladin.

Just let me know what I do next :P

Great! For now, you don't need to do anything. You'll be receiving an in-game letter on December 19 telling you the name and class of the person you're giving a gift for, and then on December 20th you send the gift to them. I'll be re-explaining it in the letter on the 19th to everyone

[Gorthazien]

Zathien, Rogue and Cannith Crafter

Sounds cool. If possible would like to know recipients favored weapon (have something special in mind)

[Sephiroth_k2]

Class ( final planed, will be ok in 2 or 3 week ^^): pure Paladin 2HF human.

[Wh070aa]

I can't do this, because I probably will forget about this after a month.
Would be nice, if the lever range was included in this, but it probably be changed in a month.
Anyhow good luck and have fun! Gotta start farming those coal pieces to send ewryone who forgets about sending gifts.

[Alisonique]

Count me in too:

Wilibold Jones stick fighting man (well halfling anyways) monk/rogue

Brilliant idea, bring on the season of goodwill to all men....even if some of them aren't too keen on it!

[LeslieWest_GuitarGod]

Willi, thanks for spotting this.

Tom116, this is a great idea. Thank you for organizing such an event! Tyrs Paladium will be a part of this. I hope other guild leaders can gather their troops and help spread some cheer throughout Ghallanda.

Its a crazy world out there, DDO has been my serenity through life's ups and downs. Chin up, wallets out, it's Christmas time!!

I'll be sending out in-game mail to everyone a couple days before the event as a reminder, so you can join if you'd like
Great idea about the coal, just might have to do that haha

Just one question though, what class are you/will you be by Christmas?

[LeslieWest_GuitarGod]

Not a problem. Always willing to join in on great community/morale building efforts such as this. It may be hard work for you, but it will feel and certainly be well worth it.

Not at all, if you want to give it and you think they'd like it, then go for it

Spellsinger indeed. LOL! Dont care what I get, just glad to be able to participate

By the way, I created a pic to help promote the event in guild, as well as placing it as a news story on the front of our guild website. You are free to use it if you wish

That's awesome, spellsingers are a rare breed these days, especially pure. The only other one I've grouped with all life has been my girlfriend/leveling partner, went great with my rogue assassin hehe

True, but I need people to have guidelines for who they're purchasing for so they can feel more confident that the receiver can make good use of the gift

That's awesome, I just may do that

Oh I bet. My spellsinger is 100% pure. I've always been able to blend when I duoed. Still do. Bards are far more fun for team players I've found long ago. Most zergers just dont know what to do with them.

Good luck with this event Tom!

[skorpeon]

Count me in! I have a whole lot of useless junk to give away. I just need to rewrap them right?

Tymkul lvl 13 (should be a few levels higher by the time of the gift time)
Monk Shruricannon build

For sure. They're really fun to play, I was one on my second life. I am curious to check out those new enhancements they got a while back though

Thank you, I appreciate the help by "throwing your guild's santa hats in" haha
