Big Birthday Bash!

[p]It's Paper Pirates' sixth birthday, and we’re celebrating with the return of The Big Birthday Bash! Running from 28th February - 14th March, celebrate the anniversary of the game's launch with a festival of partying, and a whole host of anniversary goodies in Paper Pirates! [/p][p][/p][h2]Seasonal Trait: The Blessed[/h2][p]A new seasonal trait for the sixth anniversary of Paper Pirates, The Blessed is a passive trait that can appear in any Trait or Traits+ game with at least six pirates.[/p][p][/p][p]The Blessed is empowered with three special blessings, and any time when they are not currently awaiting a blessing they must choose a new blessing to receive. There are three blessings in total, and each one takes a certain amount of days to be fulfilled.[/p][p]A Blessing of Scrying will reveal a pirate's team after two days, a Blessing of Reversal will flip a pirate's team after three days, and the terrifying Blessing of Doom will throw a pirate overboard after four days.[/p][p]When The Blessed picks a blessing, they also have to choose which pirate the blessing will be enacted on. With a delay in the activation of the blessing, how can they predict what they will need and when?[/p][h2]Seasonal Trait: The Magician[/h2][p]Joining Paper Pirates for the duration of The Big Birthday Bash is the seasonal passive trait, The Magician! Play a Trait or Traits+ game during The Big Birthday Bash, and one of the crew may find themselves playing as The Magician.

[/p][p]When the entire crew have finished voting, but no pirate has gone overboard, The Magician will have the opportunity to cast a magic vote. This magic vote has three voting power, and can be cast for any pirate (other than The Magician themselves). The crew won't know who The Magician is, unless they can figure it out through deductive reasoning![/p][p]The magic vote still counts as voting for a pirate to go overboard, so if The Magician throws a human overboard they run the risk of becoming a ghost. Question is... who are they? [/p][h2]The “Let Them Eat Cake” Event![/h2][p]Go on a sailing adventure during The Big Birthday Bash, and each day there is a chance you may encounter the “Let Them Eat Cake” event. The crew will divide up a huge birthday cake, taking the chance to blow out the candles one by one. It's believed that the last person who blows out a candle will get to make a wish... what will they wish for, and will their wish come true?!

[/p][h2]Birthday Gift Bounties[/h2][p]Every day during The Big Birthday Bash the crew will receive a special birthday gift bounty! If you complete the assigned task, you can open a present, and inside you will find... a special cosmetic surprise! There are sixteen different cosmetics in total to collect, so make sure to collect your birthday gifts during the seasonal celebration!
