Winter Reapers spotted after massive blizzard!
Posted: Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:40 pm
A warning to all Sosarians,
A massive snowstorm has left a blanket of fresh snow around the facets of Sosaria. Although it is not unusual to have a lot of snow this time of year, it has attracted an increased amount of winter reapers.
Winter reapers are normally isolated to the winter spur in the Tokuno Islands due to the bone chilling temperatures. Winter reapers are sensitive to heat and rarely leave the confines of the frozen mountains. However, during larger snowstorms, the air becomes cold and frigid, allowing the winter reapers to move outside the winter spur.
Winter reapers have caused fatalities in the past. Although they aren't that much worse than regular reapers, this particular variety does have a severe weakness to fire and a strong cold tolerance. The cold, frosty aura they send off has been the culprit of many deaths and it is not uncommon to find a frozen rabbit or bird corpse near their roots.
The wildlife council of Yew has given permission to the citizens of Sosaria to destroy winter reapers if they pose a threat but caution those who may try to remove the beasts. They also request that the winter reapers not be bothered in their natural habitat of the Winter Spur as to not endanger the species.
(Note: These winter reapers are spawned solely for the spirit of the season and don't drop any special loot).
