Are you strong and fearless? Then we have spooktacular events for you! Look forward to daily gifts, huge boosts, offers in the shop and, of course, the Haunted House event!

[h2] Message from the Beyond[/h2]

Ghosts and demons will be trying to use this witching season to escape from the realm of the dead. In their attempts to contact you on this side of the void, you’ll find some enticing items winging their way into your mailbox over the coming days.

Every day between 27th October and 5th November we’ll have a surprise in store for you! If you have multiple characters on your account, the presents will land in the mailbox of the first character you log in with. Even if you miss a day during this period, it won’t have any effect on the remaining presents.

[h2] Tricks for Treats[/h2]

Trick OR treat? We offer both!
Play tricks on the wild pumpkins, monsters and demons from 30th October (midnight) to 1st November (11:59 PM server time) and look forward to the sweet treats:

• 300% additional XP
• 300% more talent points
• 200% drop boost if you play in a group

[h2] The Haunted House[/h2]

Do you dare enter the haunted house? The show how fearless you are until 5th November and snatch exciting prizes!

Solve puzzles, enter the haunted house, kill the boss, and scoop some awesome rewards! Here’s how it works: the Team Manager NPC at the entrance to Varanas will grant you access to the event zone, and you’ll be able to participate from level 75!

[h3]Garden and Haunted House[/h3]

In the first part, the garden, you’ll have to find the mechanisms that’ll open the doors to the mansion. But don’t let yourself get caught by the ghosts while you’re doing so!
The second part takes place inside the mansion: there’s an epic boss battle against an evil ghost and unique rewards waiting for you.

[h3]4 Game Modes[/h3]

The different modes are Solo, Easy (2 players), Normal (2-4 players:), and Hard (3-6 players).
Solo mode only takes place in the first part, the garden.

[h3] Entry Cost[/h3]

You can obtain entry to Solo and Easy modes from the Team Manager NPC for gold.
For Normal mode you need the Mysterious Golden Key item, which are dropped in each mode with a certain probability, or you can purchase them in the shop.
Hard mode can only be accessed with the Mysterious Transport Medium item, which you can purchase in the shop.

[h3] Potential Prizes[/h3]

The rewards for your heroic deeds are awfully awesome: get the Pumpkin Carriage mount, the Shady O’Ghoul pet, and various brand-new transformation potions – there’s everything from zombies and krakens to banshees and dragons!

Happing haunting!

Autumn is coming, but we’d rather have sun and pleasantly warm weather than rain and storms, of course. So get prepared for the Golden Autumn event!

[h3]How It Works:[/h3]

A fun time packed full of thrilling tasks and valuable benefits awaits you! Each week in Taborea you’ll enjoy a different, exciting event.

Have fun in our autumn events!
The RoM Team

The witching season is upon us once more, and the Pumpkin King has returned! He's threatening the living with his hordes of ghosts and monsters. Challenge him to a duel with emotes, defeat his pumpkin offspring and put an end to his terror! Other witches and demons have also come to haunt Taborea's inhabitants. Beat them back using their own weapons and drive terror into their hearts!

[h2]Pumpkin Festival[/h2]

When the Eye of Wisdom first came to Candara, the land was very underdeveloped. There was a great shortage of lumber, a farmer used a pumpkin to carve a mask like these and then when he put a candle inside, it seemed to come to life.

When the leaders at the Eye of Wisdom heard of this, they marked this day as a day of celebration so that the people could take a rest before the hard winter. Everyone put on these pumpkin masks and gathered to enjoy a friendly chat and some delicious pumpkin dishes. Later, children would put on these masks and dress up as monsters then visit their neighbor's houses to ask for candy.

First it was only the game of a few children, but over time a custom developed and now the day is set in the calendar as Pumpkin Festival. Children still dress as monsters and ask everyone for candy or try to scare them. And they shout: 'Trick or Treat!'
