These Heroes celebrate Halloween dressed as Goldbrickers, Freakshow, and PPD.

2007 Halloween Event Has Begun!

As autumn arrives and the climate starts to cool, many of the superpowered denizens and ordinary citizens remember that Halloween is coming, a time of festivity and celebration. While the famous Heroes are no strangers to wearing fantastic costumes, this year the emphasis is on costumes of an entirely different sort: the various types of citizens, law enforcement organizations and villain groups that many heroes are intimately familiar with.

For example, one may be able to dress up as a Coralax Minion, a Paragon Protector or even a Vahzilok Eidolon. Heroes can collect these Classical Costumes (and wear them) for Trick or Treating throughout the city. New badges will be available for those who collect the most Classical Costumes. Not to be outdone by the Heroes of Paragon City™, Villains of the Rogue Isles™ may take part in the festivities as well, where Trick or Treating and Classical Costume collection has been virtually mandated by Lord Recluse™.

The beast Eochai terrorizes the streets!

Old Enemies Return

Last year’s celebrations were tempered by minions of the Unseelie Court and rumor has it that yet again they are on their way to disrupt the All Hallow’s Eve festivities, while there is a slight lull in dealing with the Rikti. Heroes and Villains alike can expect to encounter any number of dark and hideous creatures during Halloween, including Vampires, Zombies, Witches, Werewolves, and Jack-o-Lanterns, as well as the monstrous Eochai and Jack-in-Irons. Ravenwing Cabal’s Annah will be in Croatoa to explain the festivities, as will Granny Beldam in Nerva Archipelago.

The fun begins today, October 22nd, and continues through Sunday, November 4th, 2007 at 11:59pm EST.
