Mistic Pets

Jasper and Archie’s jaws dropped in unison as they rounded the tent. There in the back, looking quite comfortable amidst the thick roots of a barren tree, sat Gregory atop an enormous pile of Lanturnacht candy.

As the brothers watched, a Lanturat trotted up, dropped a piece of candy in the pile and promptly scurried off. Gregory cackled happily, his green tentacles wiggling in the cold fall wind.

“Gregory!” Jasper admonished, “What’s all this?”

The hat grinned. “Gregory winsss!” He declared triumphantly.

Jasper blinked. Then he looked at Archie, beak still gaping, and in all of two seconds was doubled over, cackling louder than even Gregory. Archie’s surprise turned to a resigned sort of smile at the ridiculous situation and he shook his head.

“We were outsmarted by a hat, Jasper,” he said.

“A hat and a bunch of rodents!” The Jinx amended, wiping a tear from under his monocle. He walked over to Gregory and put the bright orange hat where he belonged, atop his head, and glanced down at the candy pile. “Well, get someone to collect all this. We have a show to finish!”

---

Lanturnacht is finally here, and that means the Jinx are out in force! Small batches will be released for creation throughout the day and keep an eye out for poppets in the Credit Shop and Zulime's!

~Mistic Team

You might just see some new yet familiar candies in your trick-or-treat bags... The wrapped taffy candies have had a long-overdue revamp, and are now looking positively scrumptious!

Keep knocking on profiles and searching for Lanturats, the fun will be ending tomorrow!

“How are these things smart enough to steal from us but too stupid to stay out from under our feet?!” Jasper growled, all but tap-dancing through his own circus as Lanturats squeaked and ran about, mindless of the jinx.

Archie’s only reaction was an annoyed sigh. He wasn’t quite as irritated at the critters as his brother was; they were less bothersome than Albrecht, after all. Plus they were kind of cute. Archie watched them as he walked along, only half listening to Jasper’s angry mutterings. It didn’t help that he’d left Gregory in their tent today. No doubt that made the jinx more unbalanced than usual.

“Archie – look,” Jasper said suddenly, stopping.

 Archie looked ahead to where Jasper was pointing. His tent was ahead, the front flap chewed and frayed, but the jinx was gesturing at the ground. Candy wrappers made a brightly colored trail around towards the back, and now that Archie looked, Lanturat prints marked the dirt.

 The brothers looked at each other and grinned. Maybe they were about to find where the Lanturats had stashed all the candy!

Walking through the circus grounds had become something of a hazard lately. Jasper cursed under his breath as a Vampire Lanturat scurried between his feet, clutching a bat gummy between its sharp little teeth. The infestation had lessened with Misticans hunting for the critters (though goodness knows why anyone would want to keep a little thief as a pal), but Jasper was still shocked at their numbers. They’d invaded his circus in full force! What kept bringing them back? Last year, tidal waves of popcorn had attracted them, but nothing like that had happened this year…

Despite warnings to keep all candy out of reach or sealed, the Lanturats wouldn’t stay away. Jasper huffed, trudging back to his tent. He wasn’t surprised when he opened the chest – upgraded from an easily chewed bag – of turned in candy and found it empty.

“Smart little buggers,” he muttered irritably, slamming the chest’s lid shut. Atop his head, Gregory cackled; Jasper snorted. “It’s just like you to find this funny…”

The Weekly Raffle has come to a close, and we are very happy to announce the latest lucky Mistican to fill their coffers!

Looks like the Lanturats have been spotted getting into the Lanturancht Spirit and dressing up!  Can you catch these new festive and spooky pals?


~Mistic Team 

Watching the last show’s crowd filter out slowly from the big top, Jasper had his usual cocky grin on his face. He glanced at Archie who was, somewhat more gracefully, waving as their audience left.

“You’ve acquired a bit of a following,” Jasper said upon noticing several Misticans singling out Archie in particular.

“A bit…” Archie agreed. Then he raised an eyebrow. “What, afraid I’ll win?”

“Ooh, you’ve acquired an attitude as well!” The jinx quipped. “Let’s just check and see if your arrogance is fitting, hm?”

The two brothers made their way across the circus grounds, greeting guests and checking on whatever games they passed. Ivy curtsied as they greeted her and Jimbo mock saluted them with a fishing pole.

Jasper disappeared into his tent and Archie into the one he had next to it. Both came running out about a second later, carrying identical bags that flopped about in the fall wind, completely empty.

Archie held up his bag and frowned at it. “I wonder…” He stuck his arm inside and, as he’d expected, his hand came out the bottom through an enormous hole. “Lanturats,” the aetra concluded with a sigh, “I suppose we’ll be needing some help again to get rid of them..."

---

Looks like the Lanturats are back to cause some trouble! You’ll find them scurrying about Mistica looking for candy, but they’re quick, so if you see one grab it fast!

---

And have you seen the spooky new looks some of our classic Lanturnacht candies have received?

And lastly (but not least), let's give Predator a belated happy birthday! Creepy Critters received some appropriately spooky new stock for the occasion.

~Mistic Team

...pierces the night, and the Lanturn Skillow is revealed!

He has an oddly haunting song to sing if you sit and listen...

“We’re going to be late,” Archie admonished, frowning a little at his brother, who was taking “getting ready” to ridiculous levels.

 

Jasper grinned over at the aetra as his fingers deftly knotted a  green, skull-adorned bowtie around his neck. “Lanturnacht is more than half a show, Archie!” He declared with a flourish of his feathered arms, “We need to look the part. Besides,” the jinx’s grin twitched, “you enjoy it. Admit it.”

Had Archie not been covered in fur, Jasper might have noticed a slight flush to his cheeks. “It’s just for looks. People like it,” he said defensively, nonetheless straightening the striking black top hat he wore.

“Exactly – the show,” Jasper insisted, “which is what I bring in spades, by the way. You’ve picked up a lot from me, but not everything.”

It still amazed Archie how huge his brother’s ego was, and yet he couldn’t bring himself to get mad. He had used most of Jasper’s techniques in the past, after all, but he thought he could hold his own quite well. “Appearance and hype aren't everything, Jasper…”

“Oh? Well then,” Jasper turned to his brother with a half-cocked smile, “how about a friendly bet? We’ll see who’s right, then.”

“Fine, Jasper, I’ll indulge your constant need for attention,” Archie teased with a shake of his head.

“Very well! Whoever receives the most candy this year wins,” Jasper declared. He turned for the tent’s door as Gregory awoke with a growl. “Ready, both of you? Time to go!”

“Dear Mistica, I bring you an invitation!” 
 A Nocturnal Koko approaches, straightening up to his full height. His height isn’t so impressive, but you’re taken back a bit by his strong demeanor, proper business attire, and most importantly, the hint of treachery that gleams in his eyes. “My name is Albrecht Von Emmerich. As head of the council of the Chamber of Evil, I am appearing here today on the behalf of my council associates. We wish to extend our…” He considers his word choice for a moment before continuing, “…hospitality to the general public, during this season of Lanturnacht.”

He stops for a moment, allowing for a pragmatic pause to his speech while shifting his weight and clearing his throat.

“There is, of course, the danger involved in wandering through the corridors of the Chamber of Evil.” He pauses yet again, glancing over at you to make sure he has your full attention.

“We have had to implement a number of defenses to protect ourselves from righteous do-gooders over the years, so I’m sure you can understand the risks of wandering through our maze to find the goodies we’ve left out for you. Also, we – ah ah, we can’t give you the location of the treats, that would be too easy,” he cuts in as you open your mouth to speak. You wonder if you’ll ever be able to get a word in edgewise.

“As I was saying,” Albrecht emphasizes, glaring at you for disrupting his speech, “we can’t be held responsible for any mishaps that should befall those wandering our halls, though I dare say some of our residents would be delighted to have a new test subject.” “With that said, I welcome you to the Chamber of Evil! I do hope some of you will stay with us beyond the season,” he says, his smile stretching large enough to show a mouthful of needle-like teeth.

The third and last day of Jahzara's tale was upon her, and the fortune-teller did not disappoint. Wearing her usual knowing little smirk the woman sat once again, and as before, a small crowd had soon gathered around her. She was patient and waited until every straggler had settled down, then let silence fall for a few seconds, allowing anticipation to build.

"We come finally," she intoned, and it was as if her audience's ears had pricked up visibly, "To the very end of Lanturnaucht's tale. Jack, having frightened the malicious phantom who had attacked his dear sister, spoke before the entire village. In one hand he held a pommekin...but it was unlike anything seen before.

The inside glowed! The settlers marveled at the frightening thing as Jack began to explain. He had hollowed out the inside and placed within it a brightly burning candle, then on the face of the pommekin, carved a pair of evil looking eyes and a wide, jagged mouth. Light and a pommekin, the phantom's two fears, together in one!

Well, the villagers were astonished, and there was no argument: they set to work immediately, hollowing out pommekins, gathering candles, and carving the most horrific faces they could think of onto the fruits. Then they placed them around the outside of their village and around their homes, so the night glowed with the fitfully flickering lights of hundreds of small candles.

And that night...was silent. As was the day after." Jahzara smiled and she opened her mouth wide, allowing her voice to carry loudly over the people sitting around her. "The settlers had won! The phantoms never visited again, except to creep along the edges of the village, snarling but unable to cause any harm. The candle-filled pommekins were called Jack O' Lanterns in honor of their creator. Years later Darkwood Hollow would be tame enough for the lanterns to not be needed, and that, my dears, is how our beloved Lanturnaucht came about."

The storyteller stood abruptly, fixing her listeners with bright, knowing eyes. With a small chuckle Jahzara swept away, her skirts swirling about her ankles, and she was lost in the darkness once again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Look who has come to join the Lanturnacht fun! The Lanturn Lysador, ready to help scare away any phantom pets that may want to terrorize you!

And if you'd like to win a Lysaodor Skeleton, be sure to post below and include the words: I LOVE LANTURNACHT in your comment to be entered! 

~Mistic Team

Jahzara arranged herself once more by her archaic fire pit, pulling at and smoothing out her colorful, voluminous skirts as she sat. The woman was quite aware of the eyes glued to her as listeners began gathering again, all eager for the rest of Lanturnaucht’s tale. Jahzara fixed them all with a sly little smile and spoke.

“Last I left you,” she began, her low, hypnotic voice carrying easily, so every ear heard clearly, “our story had barely begun. Phantoms were terrorizing the innocent, new settlers of Darkwood Hollow. They had conquered their fear of the daylight and were not restricting their attacks to the moonlit hours anymore. Settlers found themselves pelted with pommes every hour of the day; it was relentless, merciless…yet no one had risen up to fight back.” Jahzara’s smile widened; she paused, letting her words bury themselves deeper into her audience’s minds.

“Then a young Mistican named Jill was struck hard on the head with a clockwork pomme. Her older brother, Jack, became enraged at the unprovoked attack. His sister was sweet, docile…and how dare anyone, he thundered, attack her!” Jahzara’s voice had risen powerfully, but then her volume suddenly dropped. Her listeners leaned in closer. “Impulsive and angry, Jack hefted a pommekin and hurled it at the cackling phantom with all his strength - and it drove the creature away!

The cause…well, no one could really understand it, but it seemed that the phantoms feared pommekins. Jack concocted a brilliant plan…and prepared to address the entire group of settlers - the lone, brave soul willing to stand up for the beaten down Misticans.” And Jahzara stopped there, much to her audience’s consternation. She simply smiled her serene, mysterious little smile at their protests and outbursts, standing gracefully and smoothing out her skirts once again, obviously preparing to leave. “I will be back with the ending tomorrow,” she said, “so use this time to think on what I have already said.” With that, Jahzara turned and swept away from the fire, swallowed by darkness.

~Mistic Team

The reclusive Jahzara has decided to grace us Misticans with her eerie appearance once again to tell the story of Lanturnaucht. She settled down around an old fashioned fire pit, her eyes almost glowing in the fitful orange light. A small, knowing little smile played across her face as she watched the listeners gather around her.

“Once again,” she began in a low voice, almost a whisper, so everyone’s ears pricked and they leaned in closer, “I’ve come to regale you with the tale of Lanturnaucht - there are new faces from last year, after all…” She smiled slightly wider. “My telling will, I believe, be shorter this time, so mind you listen closely.” Her voice hadn’t raised at all, but something in her eyes said she meant every word as though it’d been shouted.

“Darkwood Hollow,” she continued in a louder voice that seemed to resound around her, enrapturing her audience, “was not always so tame. When the first settlers came here years ago, years before Lanturnaucht was even thought of, it was a treacherous place for those who…did not belong. Your forefathers faced many perils to make even our small part of the woods safe, and one of them brought about this celebration.

Phantoms were terrorizing the humble settlers, you see. Their home had not been abused in any manner but they seemed to find it…entertaining…to come out in the dead of night, when the air was chill and the forest floor was black, the moonlight blocked by the forest’s thick, leafy canopy. The phantoms would take handfuls of pommes from the trees and hurl them mercilessly…many of the settlers took injuries because of it, and they would wake every morning to see their small wooden cabins damaged - sometimes partly caved in - from the constant barrage of pommes. This only happened at night; the phantoms seemed to fear the sunrise, and for this the settlers were grateful.” Here Jahzara paused, her bright eyes fixing those before her with a hard, piercing stare to be sure they were paying attention.

“But soon the phantoms conquered the light,” she said in almost a whisper, and the eyes of her audience widened, “and the settlers found themselves trapped, facing the terrors both day and night.” She fell silent and her smirk deepened. “And here…is where I leave you, for now,” she said finally, chuckling in a knowing sort of way, confident her audience would come back for more.

Once upon a time, Jasper had three beloved pals who ran afoul of the Chamber of Evil. Proof positive that nothing good can come from within. Now that Lanturnacht is here once more, Jasper needs help to fix up his pals Tombstones!


Issy, Edgar, and Andrew would be most appreciative of your efforts!

QUEST!
Oh no! It seems Jasper needs some help rebuilding his pals' tombstones. Remind Jasper of the enthusiasm for Lantunacht while he commemorates his late pals by seeking out new pieces of tombstones and putting them together. 
 
Start by visiting Jasper and selecting which tombstone you would like to rebuild; you can select one a day. Then gather all the pieces as they appear randomly on the page. Once you have all five pieces, take them to King Blithe--he is very familiar with how to make these tombstones from years past. Bring the completed tombstone to Jasper so he can restore the graves and honor the lives of his friends.
 
(What the pieces look like for reference)

There are now FIVE levels for each Tombstone. So be sure and quest each day so you can retrieve all the prizes!

Here are the new lanturns for level 5!

Assorted other Lanturns and the Tombstone Plushie make up the other levels!

The two passed the night in memories and shared grief that their time together on the seas had come to an end.  They shared so much, but knew that with the sun, they would part ways and perhaps might never have this chance agian. 

"Thank ye Jack,  still loyal as ever. How be my ship?" The grizzled risylki looked fondly at Jack, glad that the treasure had been recovered. 

"Ye had me pledge when first I set foot on the deck, I'd not forsake it now Blacktusk. Not when ye have given me so much.  She flies through the waves, as steady as ever. She'll not let me down." 

As the moon started its downward journey, and the cold pre-dawn light began to spread, they said their final farewells.  Jack stepped into the light of breaking dawn  and looked towards the sunrise as it stretched over the land. The storm clouds in the distance were in full retreat, and he could smell a fine day indeed about to start.

You may now utilize these coins, in addition to two other items to create a Mistical Pirate Ship of your own if you visit King Blithe in the Blizzard Realm!

What a great response to our question in the last newspost. Thanks for participating and being so excited for all the Lanturnacht fun! It wouldn't be nearly as much fun without our amazing community!

~Mistic Team 

As the sun set on the land of Mistica, Jack was once more again on the shores awaiting his old friend. The sea was in a frenzy with the force of the storm that had increased in intensity.  Blacktusk materialized as twilight enveloped the world.
"Hurry Jack, I have found the scallywag, and ye were right all along."


Jack's ears perked up, and his keen eyesight kept the wavering form of Blacktusk in his sight as he followed closely.  Blacktusk had to wait while Jack set up to enter the murky depths of the reef in search of Monty. 


~~~~~~~~



They came upon Monty, in a small cave. It took time for Jack to make it down to the reef, strange currents knocked him about as he fought to hold steady. Monty shook with fear, and yelled his rage at Jack as he entered the cave. Then as Blacktusk's form appeared at the entrance to the cave, effectively blocking the caribyss inside the cave. 

"Take it! Take the cursed coins and go, leave me be!" Monty stepped aside to reveal the casket of pirate coins that had been his only company these last few weeks as the sea rebelled, and waited for Jack to take possession. 


 Blacktusk materialized as fully as he could and stepped forward into the cave. Looming larger than life, he addressed Monty, who paled at his words.
"Know ye that from this night, you are marked as one who has no regard for the realms beyond this one. Disturb us again at your peril, caribyss."

 Jack swam to the surface with the treasured cask of coins. Making his way to Blacktusk's final resting place to pass one more night with his mentor. 

~~~~~~~~

Blacktusk's peace has been restored!

In celebration, we unveil our Champion Gift for October, a commemorative plush!

All will be sent out tonight for current October champions and yearly supporters!


Hold on to your coins, they will be able to be turned in soon for other pirate booty!!

Speaking of booty, we have the last few pirate goodies in shops now!

We would like to make an apology, we did some mail maintenance, clearing out mail that was over 2 years old, and it was meant to leave mails in folders intact. However, mail in folders older than 2 years was cleared. We did take precautions so there is a backup, and we will update when we have a gameplan for moving forward!

While our apology stands, we'd like to re-alert the news to say that the backup/restore is complete. Thank you for your patience. At this time, please be sure to make copies of very important mail or RPs that you may have. We will be looking to fix the folder issue and do a clear out soon!

Jack had spent the last few days scouring the shores of Mistica, gathering up pirate coins as he went. 

He has his suspicions on who had disturbed Blacktusk's rest, but he needed more solid proof. Four times he had stopped at the Jade Emporium, with no sign of Monty. Jack also made sure to visit Makoto, eyeing his wares suspiciously, but keeping quiet in the anya's presence. 

The moon rose full over the water before it was obscured by the stormy skies, and the haruba made his way back to the cave, where Blacktusk awaited his faithful friend. 


"Welcome back me heartie, what news have you? Is my slumber near at hand?"

"I do have me suspicions Blacktusk, though the scallywag be in hiding. Here be a picture of him, if you could help me on my search?"

Blacktusk regarded the image, and nodded his head, "I may not travel far as the moon starts to wane, but I will do as ye bid Jack. Watch for me when the moon rises once more."
~~~~~~~~~

Looks like Monty is in for trouble, do you think he's behind the missing treasure or do you suspect Makoto? 

Now you get to get into the fun! Blacktusk is going to search all over Mistica in the next few days. Every hour, you have a chance to find where he is hiding. 

If you are one of the first 3 to find him, you'll receive a special prize!
 

Are you ready, Blacktusk's power will not last long as the moon begins to wane, you only have until Monday evening to hunt with him for Monty!*

*The gift will be available via a second means, but we all know eveyrone wants to be the first to get the hatchis!

Spooky October is here, and that means all sorts of ghoulish fun and delight for all!

While our Daydream and Nightmare boxes are no longer available in the Credit Shop, the Phandom and Lanturn Pandoira Boxes are now available!*


Which theme do you prefer?


Toss your vote in the comments for Phantom or Lanturn, and one lucky Mistican will earn a free Box!

*Be sure to get the Boxes you would like, after this month, they will not be availble except during special sales and on very rare occassions in the Box Exchange.

The October credit shop is now live, with quite a few items removed that will debut in the Jade Emporium shortly!
Check out the goodies available!



With quite a few items retired to Jade Emporium, and prices lowered, we hope you'll  put your increased converter to use!

And last but not least for this newspost, the October Kohal is here!


A little break in all the doom and gloom of our spooky holiday!
Gear up for Lanturnacht, the Jinx await!

In regards to the higher convert limit. It is now 25mp for ALL members. Champions still recieve many perks, including the new monthly champion gift, nad we are looking at ways to improve benefits. Thank you for all your support!
