Spider Visuals Filter
Spider Visuals Filter
Wolvden offers a toggle for spider visuals year-round, but it can be extra useful during this event for arachnophobes or others who would prefer not to see spiders while exploring! This option on your profile page will replace any spider visual in explore with another image. This won't affect decorations, shop images, or spiders elsewhere on site- it will only apply to explore images.
You can find the toggle in the Account Settings section of your profile page.
Exploring
Exploring
Throughout the month, a gradual corruption will settle itself over the landscapes of Wolvden. At the start of the event, you'll be able to find spooky new encounters and battle a few new enemies. As the community collects more and more Mysterious Effigies, the corruption will begin affecting local fauna and attract more powerful monsters. Winning battles against corrupted enemies will reward Mysterious Effigies!
Daily Requests
Daily Requests
Once Tier 1 of the event opens and Mohkra's shop becomes available, players may take daily requests from Mohkra herself! You can find daily requests at the top of the Mohkra store page. You may take one request per day in exchange for EXP and Mysterious Effigies!
Mohkra turns towards you, a secretive and playful expression on her face. Her silken voice carries words to your ears: "I need some ingredients. Would you help me?"
Mohkra will request a random carcass, herb, or skull.
Mohkra flicks her ears forwards, noting your presence. She is waiting. "I need a Porcupine Carcass."
Please submit the following items:
1x Porcupine Carcass
This will select the lowest use (first) and closest to rotting (second) items available in your hoard.
You may skip one of Mohkra's requests using 1 Mysterious Effigy. This will end the request without reward and provide you an opportunity to accept a new request. You can skip requests as many times per rollover as you would like.
Items given to Mohkra do not need to be full-uses. Once the item is submitted, it will be removed from your Hoard. In exchange for the requested item, Mohkra will reward you with lead wolf EXP and 5 Mysterious effigies. The amount of EXP granted is equal to your lead wolf's level multiplied by 10, with up to a 20 point positive or negative adjustment ((LVL x 10) ± up to 20). The rewards granted for completing a request remain the same regardless of what item was given.
+5 ME +125 EXP
After you've completed the request for the day, you must wait until your next rollover to take the next request.
Mohkra is busy with her cauldron. She has no need of your assistance right now.
The Pyre
The Pyre
The Pyre is an additional interaction near the end of the Halloween event. While the Pyre will remain unlit for the majority of the month, you will be able to sacrifice Mysterious Effigies at the end of the month to light the fire and access a new shop, the Altar!
Trick or Treat
Trick or Treat
Once the Pyre has been lit, you will be able to access a new trick-or-treating mechanic! You can trick-or-treat as many times per day as you would like, but the action has a 5-minutes cooldown. For a cost of 1 Mysterious Effigy, you may send one of your wolves to travel to another player's den to trick-or-treat. The den that they will visit is chosen completely randomly. The player who your wolf visits will receive 1 Smouldering Effigy, while you will earn 2-3 Mysterious Effigies in return!
Event Shops

The Altar
The Altar
Lighting the Pyre on or after October 24th will reveal the Altar, a new shop containing decorations and applicators! Since the Pyre must first be lit in order to access this shop, accessing this shop requires a sacrifice of 10 Mysterious Effigies. In exchange for this sacrifice, you will be given 10 Smouldering Effigies and the Altar will be opened! Alongside the opening of the Altar, you will be able to access trick-or-treating, explained earlier on this page.

Mohkra
Mohkra
This month's primary shop is run by a new shopkeeper, Mohkra! Tiers of her shop will open as the community gathers more Mysterious Effigies. At Mohkra's shop, you can exchange Mysterious Effigues for decorations and backgrounds. In the final tier of her shop, you'll be able to purchase special breeding items and applicators!

The dark hollow is filled with bone trinkets, and bundles of herbs are strung from twisted dead branches. Trees and shrubs seem to enclose this place from the outside. It's eerily quiet.
