Frostfell


This article refers to events, personae and activities only present in-game during the annual Frostfell festivities, which come to Norrath each year from (roughly) December 15th to January 10th.

"Frostfell is coming, the vulrich's getting fat! Please to put a copper in the old gnome's hat!" from a popular Qeynos children's Frostfell rhyme

It's Frostfell Time in Norrath, again! Song fills the air, Norrathians bustle to purchase that special gift and all the fixing for their feast, and those Frostfell Elves are out in force once more, bringing cheer and gifts of the season to one and all.

Frostfell is the Live Event for December, originally run in 2005, in celebration of the Winter Solstice (or Christmas, if you prefer).

Snowball Fights!

Scattered about the city zones you will find harvestable stacks of snowballs. Gather them to get a stack of 20 Snowballs. You have to wait for a short cooldown timer before you can harvest another 20, and they stack in 100s. When you target a mob, or another player, and use the snowball you will throw a snowball at the target causing them to run one of several different animations including shaking a fist at the thrower or being knocked down! Get your guild together for a Frostfell party and have a snowball fight contest!

Frostfell Wonderland Village

In 2006 SOE introduced the Frostfell Wonderland Village. This zone is the ice flow area at the back ov Everfrost where the Icegill goblins are, but closed off. To get there you need to find a magic closet (or wardrobe) in one of the cities.
