Site Update
As our spooky features draw to a close per our timeline, I wanted to give you a few reminders...
...and let you in on a little secret. *wink*
Reminders
You've had a little bonus time, so:
- Remember to pick up any items or pets from Rowan's Potion Brewing and Frankenstein's Lab. You will have until tomorrow evening to grab those.
- Help us clear out the Pumpkin Patch! Depositing new pumpkins has been disabled, but you are free to collect pumpkins until there are none left. (The time limit is still in effect, though.)
- The Halloween King will be closing down after 11:59 p.m. tonight.
- The Seasonal Shop and related items in the Trash Shop will be removed this evening.
- Halloween Payments are being worked on! Apologies for the delay. ;.; Please don't throw pumpkin guts at me.
We do have one last, now not-so-secret surprise left!
On Wednesday, November 12th, you will be able to collect a Skeleton Key from the Advent Calendar. The Skeleton Key has the ability to unlock one very special treasure chest, and is an account-bound, one-use item.
If you were here a few years ago, you might remember a lock-and-key feature we had that did not go as planned and was unable to be remedied. We've since revamped the feature and are giving everyone a fresh start this time around.
This is a special treasure chest!
What wonderful wares can you find inside? I'm so glad you asked!
We've stuffed the chests full of Halloween goodies--and even some shinier prizes like Custom Crystal Grab Bags and Design Tickets!
You can also find some playful pets hiding out in these treasure chests (don't ask me how they fit, it's magic). If you've been stalking the Aywapedia and wondering about the Candy Corn Harvest Tavi, Graveyard Dirt Shen, Dead Tree Codu, Haunted Well Koaf, and Pumpkin Spice Serafex, I'm now giving away their hiding spot: they can all be found in treasure chests. You can also obtain them through other methods of getting AD pets, though, if you're on a mission to get all site pets (Glittering Rocks, potions, eggs, etc.)!
As long as you have a Skeleton Key, you will be able to open a chest.
There are more than enough prizes for everyone because we are using a chance-based script, rather than putting in a fixed number of all items/pets, and your key can be used at any time, though I think sooner is funner!
I will be posting a reminder and link to the treasure chest hoard on Tuesday, I just wanted to give you a heads up now. n_n
If all goes well, I would like to try out a similar feature for Aymas this year, so please let me know what you think! <3

Eri & Dew (#17) will the treasure chest only work once or can we purchase keys and do it again?

Detective Butt (#1403) The Skeleton Key itself is an account-bound item, so they can't be sent to other users or put in shops or anything. - Eri

So we will be able to use the Key more than once then, since it is account-bound, and if you guys put out more treasure chests? Just want to make sure. Lol.

LOL it's okay. We'll just blame it on the excitement. XD - Eri
