Instructions for the 12 Days of Christmas Quest.

Raise your hand if you know the 12 Days of Christmas.. 1, 2....3..........
Ok.. 10 know. :D hehe, I decided to have some fun with it. This is a unique
little quest simply because of the amount of items which need to be collected.

12 Drummers Drumming
- Find the Drum Majors that drop Drum Sticks (12 pair of Drum Sticks needed)
11 Pipers Piping
- Find the Plumbers that drop Pipe Pieces (11 Pipe Pieces needed)
10 Lords a Leaping
- Find the Lords Of Leaping that drop Leaping Lord Statues (10 Leaping Lord Statues needed)
9 Ladies Dancing
- Find the Dancing Lady that drops Dancing Shoes (9 Dancing Shoes needed)
8 Maids a Milking
- Find the Maids of Milking for taming (100 taming needed, 8 Maids needed)
7 Swans a Swimming
- Find the Swans that drop Swimming Caps (7 Swimming Caps needed)
6 Geese a Laying
- Find the Geese that drop Goose Eggs (6 Goose Eggs needed)
5 Golden Rings
- Find the Gold Bugs that drop Golden Rings (5 Golden Rings needed)
4 Calling Birds
- Find the Calling Birds (100 taming needed, 4 Calling Birds needed)
3 French Hens
- Find the French Hens (100 taming needed, 3 French Hens needed)
2 Turtle Doves
- Find the Turtle Doves (100 taming needed, 2 Turtle Doves needed)
A Partridge in a Pear Tree
- Find the Partridge that drops a Pear Tree Branch (1 Pear Tree Branch needed)

Total items required to complete quest... 78

Requires taming skills, combat skills and the ability to shrink pets.

Collect all these items and place them into a bag with your name on it. If you want to make sub-bags for each category (i.e. a bag for the 10 Leaping Lord Statues, another for the 9 dancing shoes, etc.) to help us do the count, that would be nice, but not required. The bags will be collected sometime after the 26th of December. Some of the items will stack, but not unstack! That is ok, just make sure you have the correct number of items when you turn your entry in.

I know it's a big world out there, and there are 12 different things to find, so here are some random clues to possible locations:

Magencia, with it's fair weather climate, attracts many of our feathered friends.
What do milkmaids milk? And where can a bunch of those be found?
You might find your calling in Pineville.
Not counting Rune Beetles, there are only 2 named places on the shard where beetles spawn.
Lots of fish to eat on the docks. . . . .and some birds like fish.
The pipes in the sewers have sprung a leak. . . . who should we call?
Remember the Partridge Family from the TV show? Rumor has it they now live in Skara Brae.
Dancers, Dancers everywhere. . . .
Lordy, would you hop on over here?
You might drum up some business in Buc's Den.
They don't call it Crane Marsh because it has llamas in it (although it has those too).
It's a birder's paradise in Makato Jima.

We are still working on the reward for this quest, so will not announce it at this time. . . . maybe some old leather boots I fished up from the fishing tournament, who knows? :P

You may only submit one complete entry and receive one reward.

Good luck to everyone!

As of this morning, the Milk Maid, Calling Bird, French Hen and Turtle Doves from the 12 Days of Christmas Quest will now shrink to 1 stone weight when shrunk with a pet leash. If these pets are already shrunk, you will need to unshrink and reshrink them.

All quest items will now fit easily into a named bag as requested in the instructions above.

We have decided to start accepting entries early, and there is an Event Drop Box west of Brit Bank to put your entries in. Make sure they are complete before turning them in! Be sure to read the signs above the drop boxes to make sure you use the correct box.
