Aurestal may be the season of giving, but after a month of shopping for pets and friends, it's fun to finally be on the receiving end! Your Holiday Gift Tree might be bustling with goodies. Maybe you got that Retro Ray Gun you've been wanting. Just don't shoot your eye out! And if you're away on a tropical vacation to flee the bitter cold, don't fret! You have until November 30th, 2025 to unwrap your presents.



This month, the Auroras have taught us the true spirit of the season. Generosity gave us the greatest gift-giving tips. Prosperity helped us discover new ways to give back to the community. And Peace eased our minds so we could relax with friends. But with the Aurestal season coming to a close, they're ready to return to a well-deserved slumber. Spend all of that hard-earned AP at the Auroras Shop. You have until December 31st, 23:59:59 IcePets Time to claim festive goods, such as the beloved Aurestal Snow Jar.



Did you miss out on an Advent Calendar day? Don't worry! The Auroras are stocking the entire collection, so you can catch up on the adventures of two pen pals spreading holiday cheer. Grab the Snowslide Aurestal Memos to learn about the walking disaster Minali. Then pick up a Halipar Jungles Post-A-Coco to meet the scatterbrained Pompano. And if you run out of time before the end of the month, there are always Forgotten Advent Keys in the I.C.E Shop to unlock missing dates!

From the veiled brambles and branches of the Tangled Wood, the elusive Nocturnes are beginning to spread across the realm. These oft-hidden dragons are again leaving the comfort of their dreary habitats and traversing Sornieth under the cover of darkness. On this, the shortest day of the year, Nocturne dragons rule the skies.

Night of the Nocturne is the annual celebration of one of Flight Rising's Limited breeds. Once a year, Nocturne breed change scrolls become available exclusively during this event! Nocturnes have a 30-day breeding cooldown and eat Meat and Insects.

Event Details

From now until January 5th, at 06:00 server time, it will be possible to obtain Nocturne Dragons in the following ways:

• Finding rare Unhatched Nocturne Eggs.
• Finding very rare Breed Change: Nocturne scroll items.

The items above will be found in Strange Chests--baffling containers left by the breed during their only two weeks of activity. Nocturnes aren't keen to just shower the realm in gifts, however. Several of these chests have a vicious mind of their own, and some are now known to be under the protection of some new clever and camouflaged foes...

In order to find these chests, participate in daily site activites such as gathering, brewing, hatching, bonding, exalting and more! ...or test your skill and battle Mimic monsters in the Coliseum. Mimics can be encountered in all Coliseum areas, with higher level mimics having a greater chance to drop a chest. New this year, all coliseum enemies will have a low chance of dropping event items, but mimics will have a much better chance than a normal opponent. If you can't battle, don't worry! Baldwin is always seeking new alchemists to help him craft the perfect brew to unlock the secrets of these chests.

It will also be rarely possible to find Unhatched Nocturne Eggs while scavenging in any elemental region.

After two weeks have passed, Nocturnes, their eggs, and their Strange Chests will become scarce until next year, when they again return.

Nocturne Lore

Engineered by the Shadowbinder herself to be covert, hidden, and adaptable, Nocturne dragons have the incredible ability mimic the sounds, motions, and behaviors of other dragons and creatures. This interesting adaptation can have its drawbacks, though. Find out more about the Shadowbinder's sneaky sentinels in the lore article below:

Higgins' Haunted Hollow

Higgins Haunted Hollow is back for a limited time at The Grand Exchange. This shop is active for the duration of Night of the Nocturne, and includes item, treasure, and gem trades for unique Night of the Nocturne items! It also includes a rather grumpy butler.

Another year brings new chances at unique Night of the Nocturne exclusive items! Here are some of the new items you can expect to see as part of the event.
