Christmas in the Rogue Isles? Bah!
14 Dec, 2005
Christmas. A time for giving, but mostly for receiving. Stolen goods, that is....
Black Scorpion’s greed ensured all villains have an extra trick in their arsenal in this festive season; the ability to fly.
Now, villains all over the Rogue Isles are able to swoop down on their prey and grab whatever they need, before taking to the skies once more. Never before has good been perverted for such evil!
If you haven’t had a chance to experience the malevolence that these rocket packs manifest, login to any European server today to get a taste.
Arachnos’ total control over the Christmas season is only just beginning, however....
Operation Scrooge
Lord Recluse is a wise and occasionally benevolent leader. However, he is not a sentimental fool, unlike some of those ‘heroes’ in Paragon City - he sees no reason why the people of Paragon should enjoy their festivities unhindered.
Hence, he has set Operation Scrooge into action. Villains are commanded to seek out special Arachnos contacts around the Rogue Isles, and journey to Paragon City to ensure the inhabitants have nothing to be happy about.
Beware, however. Ghost Widow’s spies inform us that Ms Liberty has organised a counterstrike, which will attempt to penetrate the heart of the Rogue Isles. This so-called ‘Operation Holiday Cheer’ is destined to fail, but nevertheless - be prepared.
Villains - Operation Scrooge commences on Thursday, December 15th. We shall overrun Paragon City and ensure ‘Operation Holiday Cheer’ brings nothing of the sort.
Gamester’s Holiday Festival of Fun
While these operations are beginning however, a new figure is watching from the shadows. Acting outside any simple definition of ‘hero’ or ‘villain’, this mysterious figure is known only as Gamester. Delighted by the growing tension, he is ready to intervene and announce his presence in a shocking way!
No simple trickster, Gamester is irrationally fond of dangerous pranks and fiendish shenanigans. Seeking fun in his own twisted mental world of games and puzzles, he has no concern for outcome, but is searching only for the next game to play. To him, the bigger the risk, the more thrilling the challenge.
Inspired by both hero and villain operations, Gamester has hatched his grandest game yet and plans to release it upon both cities! Gamester’s Holiday Festival of Fun is a game of chance that allows everyone to play and see what fate holds in store.
With gleeful anticipation, Gamester plans to unleash his Holiday Festival of Fun across Paragon City and the Rogue Isles on Monday, December 19th.
Come and see what fortune might be yours before the Gamester is forced from the Rogue Isles on January 2nd!
