A tale of jilted love and Cupids fury
Beginning on February 11th players can seek out cupids minions as they roam the land looking for the location of those guilty of the most heinous crime. Rumors are they are carrying a magical scroll that can summon cupid into the lands to rain down suffering on those who desecrated the altar of love.
Should players find this scroll and make it Cupids Lair near a prison buried in the mountains they can attempt to summon Cupids army themselves. But beware as they will not be happy to find filthy humans desecrating the altar of love.

Dalavar Mapmage and the Elder Wyrm
Greetings, fellow Brittanians. I come to thee with a message of dire importance, and dire portents. As you may know, I tend to roam these lands alone, slaying beasts and hunting treasure only with my close family. But perhaps it is time that changes.
For there is a beast I have yet to slay, and he has shamed my family name. I call upon you to aid me in this quest, that you may earn riches and I may finally restore the honor of my ancestors.

Introducing the Submerged Caverns on Ocllo
"While bunking for the night at The Albatross inn you overhear a hushed conversation."
"Ever since that forsaken place has emerged we have had all sorts of warriors and rogues for hire come in search of fame and treasure", the man makes a gesture to pointing south, they gather down there near the Occlo docks, in search of some sodden eulogy.
"As for me, I will not go near that place! No sir!"
"I say let them search and good riddance. Them ruffians bring nothing but trouble and calamity if ya ask me!"

Strange Golems Attack Minoc
During a recent mining excavation in the minoc mines and team of miners unearthed a strange abomination.
While investigating the creature and attempting to determine its origins a mass of the creatures arose from the mines.
Unable to be damaged by nothing other than the hardest weapons the creatures seemed immortal.
Eventually a brave band of warriors equipped with their strongest weapons were able to send the golems back into the metal from which they were spawned.
They are defeated for now . . But who knows which town will be next.

The Battle for Spiritwood - Plight of Paws
Puzzles, riddles, and bones.
The villagers would soon be wanting answers as to why the human jerky and bones were appearing around their peaceful settlement.
Jupiter was not quite sure he could provide the answers they would want to hear. Honestly he wasn not sure if he wanted to admit by what means they were delivered . . . nor by whom.
He had hoped that the game of fox and hound he had started with Cestius Flavius had also ended with him being scorched in his contemptible cottage, but these bones and gestures bore all the same signs of this same hunter, if not somehow slightly muted. . . it was as
though they were from the same person as before yet somehow his will was being controlled. Continued. . .

Basoosh and her trusty nightmare, Stinky Britches, followed the trail of pirate riches from a waterside tavern, to an ancient lighthouse, through a secret cave, and finally through four treacherous decks of the Devils Doom, the pirate flagship.
Victory was achieved! Loot was plundered! Booty was ... tampered with.

What Cold Winter Tales - Village of Paws & Heroes of UO:R
What cold winter chill is borne this eve
To cast a frozen shadow upon the pond
Whose sapphire waters were ever warm.
Jupiter came to investigate and found a terrible surprise.
The essence of the Sapphire Maiden had been taken from the pond!
She was forcibly removed, the ice that was once the pristine water
Clearly bore the scars of a fierce resistance. The only clues left
Were some odd runic symbols, a star chart of sorts.

Christmas Elf Invasion
After several scouting missions the elves have attacked en mass!
A fierce battle was waged in Britain before the elves were defeated.
As they retreated through their gate Lord British was able to lock it open.
While many brave warriors fell during the battle the adventures were able to defeat the elves across many hidden realms. The final battle with the commander was brutal and bloodied on both sides but eventually he was defeated.
