The Lair of the White Witch

The Lair of the White Witch is one of the unique Renaissance Christmas event dungeons that players can challenge each December. The scroll for this dungeon is only found when completing one of the other base Christmas dungeons. These dungeons were added to the Christmas event in 2017.

Player begin at the entrance to a frozen forest lit eerily by frozen lanterns spaced throughout. The forest is overrun with a multitude of warriors and other frozen creatures defending a fortress in the distance. You are tasked with fighting your way to the forest and defeating enough of the witches army to gain access to the fortress. This is no easy task as the fortress is well defended by archers and mages. Once inside and through a magical teleporter players find themselves in a strange magical mine.

The Mine is guarded by the White Witches vanguard who will summon help as needed and will challenge the players progress forward. The path to the Witches lair is a confusing one with a maze of teleporters that players have to master before the final showdown with the White Witch. Only the braves and most clever of Britannia's warriors will triumph over this dangerous foe.
Once the White Witch is defeated the scroll owner will be given a key to the fortress's loot which could have one or more of the following.

How the holiday events work
• Players must hunt the world high and low to find the various event monsters that spawn.
• Each of these monsters ranges in difficulty from easy (elf archer) moderate (reindeer) to very difficulty (dark elf knight).
• Each monster has a chance to drop holiday coins and a specific event scroll (see below)
• These challenges will vary from performing a specific task, killing specific monsters, or killing a certain amount of monsters.
• Once these conditions are met additional areas will open up for you to explore.
• Once these tasks are complete you will be faced with one of 4 fearsome bosses that defend each event.
• If you manage to defeat the boss in the time allotted you will be given a key to their treasure chests.
• The player who owns the scroll that started the event will be provided with the key.
• In this chest players can find normal treasure style loot, holiday coins, holiday rares, and possibly a scroll to another holiday event.

These events were designed with the following difficulty in mind.
