Fairy Fire Fabrics, a small local fashion and clothing business running out of Eltrut which known for its magical fabrics and fashions, is testing out a new collection of fanciful magic dresses. These dresses are made out of the finest products that the business can find and are imbued with special fairy magic. The seamstress, who owns the business is sure that these dresses will make anyone who wears them... fly.

But not only fly. These magical dresses, when combined with the right fashion items (shoes, stockings, hair accessories, gloves, etc) will create powerful new effects. Some of these effects given to the wearer include floating, shrinking, evil purification, animal handling, bug catching, floral gliding, violinist skills ... and more! A full list can be found here.

The seamstress is encouraging others to come try out this beautiful new collection and to give the special effects a whirl. And don’t worry, she’s very convinced that gender doesn’t matter here. Only that the wearer can feel the magic of the dresses and other outfits worn. Create the best outfit and try to fly!

It is that time of year when local farmers are preparing to plant and grow moondrakes for the next coming months. These special potato-like vegetables are hardy and delicious and can be used in various stews and soups. They grow incredibly fast and can be planted and harvested in two weeks. Additionally, these special vegetables are so special because whoever eats them seems gain healthy glowing skin that glitters for weeks. Some even say that these vegetables have youth-preserving properties.

Help the local farmers plant these magic vegetables in neat rows in the ground. The seeds themselves are simple acorn-shaped seeds that can be planted and watered very easily.

Harvesting the moondrakes poses the greatest challenge. As when the moondrakes are pulled out of the ground they will shine a light so bright that they could blind a person. Wear protective gear or take other precautions when harvesting the moondrakes. Take care because if they’re pulled out of the ground too early they’ll immediately rot.

An eccentric scientist who was conducting an experiment on magical butterflies is requesting help … catching said magical butterflies. It seems that his experiment has gone awry and his entire collection of butterflies has escaped his testing cages.

Beautiful golden butterflies of all sizes have escaped and have infested all of the Leviathans. While mostly harmless, the butterflies do tend to give off a sweet smelling pheromone that can potentially put people to sleep.

Go around and collect as many of the golden butterflies as possible and return them to the scientist before the late winter air kills them all.

There are whispers of a mysterious figure who has been seen purchasing rare animal parts from various sources and markets for some nefarious reason. The figure's identity and affiliation are currently unknown, but Eltrut locals report seeing a hooded man with strange, unsettling eyes and a peculiar aura at market. He seems to purchase any odd collection of animal parts such as paws, claws, ears, tails, skin, bones and snouts…

Some say it’s an alchemist who has been taking his alchemy too far. And some believe they have seen his monstrous, hybrid creatures on the shore of Crescent Isle too.

Travel to Crescent Isle and track down witnesses who may have seen the alchemist’s face but take care. There is a curse on the isle, making visitors subject to catching lycanthropy. If anyone can dodge the curse, perhaps they could find answers to what this man is up to.

Kaveh is offering a new kind of commission, but this one's mostly for fun: kites! These kites can fly themselves and, if taken out at night, light up with a small glow, much like paper lanterns would. Kaveh would like it if people took the kites out and tested how well they fly themselves, but it's not necessary to return them afterwards so long as you report back how it went.

Kite shapes include two kinds of birds (an eagle and a tropical bird), a very round cat, butterflies, dragons, phoenixes and gryphons. Custom kites can be made on request!

There is an old noble’s mansion on the edge of town on Elah that has been more active recently. The nobles that live inside the mansion have started to make appearances in town, attending parties, walking the markets and strolling through the Elah conservatory grounds. They’ve started to attend socialite gatherings and have even started to host elaborate dinners on their estate.

There is just something strange about the noble family. Every time that they’re seen in public, they seem to be accompanied by looming, dark shadows. Shadows that move and mirror every single one of their moves, from simple hand gestures to nods of the head. At first, it seems like these walking shadow figures are copying their bodies but with a closer, careful look it’s actually… the bodies that are copying the shadows. Giving the shadows expressions and words through the use of their own human bodies. As if they’re a perfect working pair.

A trail of soot-like darkness trails off these shadows… And not much more is known about what’s going on. Investigate this family of shadows and find out if what they're doing is dangerous, or if this is simply how they live their lives in pairs as one. One living, one shadow.

And be careful not to be absorbed into a shadow and become a paired with it yourself. As the shadow will use your body to express its voice and expressions...

A paladin has been reported to be stuck in a rather weird situation. After bringing back a magical knife from a recent expedition, they realized that it has a special time enchantment on it that puts whoever grabs the knife into a perfect time loop that repeats the last five seconds over and over. And now the paladin is stuck in a five-second loop.

Hopefully they aren’t stuck forever. Find a way to help the paladin out of the time loop. Be creative, as touching the knife might pull anyone into the same repeating time loop. And we can’t have more people stuck in the loop forever! And we can’t have more people stuck in the loop forever! And we can’t have more people stuck in the loop forever!

A group of new recruits were recently tasked with cleaning out a wing of the paladin archives that hasn’t been cleaned in some time. While cleaning, they uncovered several heart shaped boxes that mysteriously can’t be opened.

Find a way to open the boxes to see what’s inside. If they are forcibly pried open, the boxes might have a set of nasty, sharp teeth that can easily chomp some fingers off. But if they’re opened nicely with words of affirmation (and maybe a kiss?), they might open up to a collection of tasty and vintage chocolates. Are they still edible? Maybe.

After the auction houses were disbanded, several of the exotic animals and beasts that were to be sold were liberated. However, while many were able to escape and return to the wild in one way or another, several were found to be injured or in need of medical assistance.

The Cosmo Conservatory has taken in many of these creatures for the month while they recuperate, and could use some extra hands to help care for them. Whether it's helping take care of the injured animals, assisting the volunteers with the increased task workload, or even helping to guard the Conservatory itself, any help would be greatly appreciated!

An old pirate ship and its crew has been roaming Nogard waters, lately. They have been rampaging and pillaging smaller, less equipped ships. They have also been docking on Nogard and have been frequenting the taverns and shops in town. They are a group of rather rowdy pirates.

There is just something strange about the pirates. Every time that they’re seen in public, they seem to be accompanied by looming, dark shadows. Shadows that move and mirror every single one of their moves, from simple hand gestures to nods of the head. At first, it seems like these walking shadow figures are copying their bodies but with a closer, careful look it’s actually… the bodies that are copying the shadows. Giving the shadows expressions and words through the use of their own human bodies. As if they’re a perfect working pair.

A trail of soot-like darkness trails off these shadows… And not much more is known about what’s going on. Investigate this group of pirates and their shadows and find out if what they're doing is dangerous, or if this is simply how they live their lives in pairs as one. One living, one shadow.

And be careful not to be absorbed into a shadow and become a paired with it yourself. As the shadow will use your body to express its voice and expressions...

Do you know that old saying that most babies are conceived during the winter months? With the long nights coming and the colder nights getting colder, all that is left to do is to keep your bed warm at night. Preferably with another body. With this trend, a special tea has become popular again amongst the people. A special bedtime tea that warms you from head to toe and keeps you feeling steamy and sweet all night long. That’s right, it’s an aphrodisiac tea.

Steal a shipment of tea from travelling merchant ships. Since it’s such a popular tea at the moment, many corsairs are hoping to bank on the idea and sell the tea on the black market at an exorbitant price. The rarer the tea gets the higher the price goes.

Or steal some tea for yourself. Who wouldn’t want to try it?

It’s about high time that the corsairs engage in a little bit of target practice! But it wouldn’t be a corsair's game without some twists.

Corsairs are encouraged to team up in pairs with one person being the shooter and one being the target. The person on the receiving end will have an apple strapped to their head and the shooter will have to successfully shoot the apple off that person’s head to call the practice complete.

But just be aware that the only guns that can be used for this are some old rusty guns that were left out in the snow. Everyone likes a little dangerous roulette in their life, right? Corsairs who can prove their target prowess will receive a nice (?) reward.

A sacabambapsis fish is a world-renowned creature. Nothing quite captures the essence of our world better than an sacabambapsis fish. That’s why this sacabambapsis fish that has grown too large and evil for this world needs to be eliminated. It's bad for our image!

A strange small whale has been sighted out in the ocean. It’s beautiful, looking as though it’s made out of pure energy and rainbow lights. For as rare as it is, someone needs to poach it so that its beautiful luminescent skin and other shiny parts can be harvested.

This dastardly thief has been robbing and harassing local businessmen as of late. Known to be an associate of Ganondorf, the man infamous for forcefeeding Bugsnax to captured prisoners, this mysterious masked individual appears to now be engaging in a crime spree of their own. Capture them, or find information on this mysterious individual's real identity so that they can be brought to justice!

• Construction. Aid in building bunkers, better docks, and securing the site.
• Fend off animals coming onto the island. The octopi that once inhabited the temple are no longer around, but the oyters continue to sing their eerie song and somehow it's attracting other animals to climb out. Mostly harmless, but can cause problems. Giant starfish that latch onto ships, walruses and seals that just plop down in inconvenient places, the occasional sharkgull.
• Explore the island. Although relatively small, relics or artifacts could still be found, especially with some more exposed. Chests, items, anything that one might find. Of interest are large pieces of glass and metal that can be found scattered around. Some pieces are as big as table and are too thick to be for windows. What could these have been for? (yes this is a collection option—)
• Stop conflicts. The researchers may be getting along, but that doesn't mean everyone else. Conflicts between the two Armadas still occur, with bad actors from both sides causing occasional disruptions. Thefts of found artifacts, works unjustly detained or accused of theft, rogues just causing problems, and then there is always action happening around the portals.
• New portal? The scholars are interested in experimenting and will attempt to creating new portals with the mirrors to each of the main three leviathans: Eltrut, Nogard, Elah. The locations have been determined to be in respected neutral research areas on each leviathan with trusted representatives. However, it will take time to build and even get it to work as they have no idea how the magic works to begin with and portal and teleportation magic is still in development.
