| QUOTE | | ho ho hello, um, little child. I'm Greatfather Winter, and I - courtesy of the fine folks of Smokywood Pastures... "Fresh from our farm to your plate, it's Smokywood Pastures wholesome goodness" - would like to wish you a fantastic Feast of Winter Veil. If you've been good this year, maybe you'll receive treats from Smokywood Pastures as your treat for the Feast of Winter Veil. Huzzah. Also, be sure to stock up on treats to give those who've been nice this year. Smokywood Pastures has a great selection to choose from. Look for them at a major city near you. |
Greatfather Winter is visiting the great cities of Ironforge and Orgrimmar - courtesy of the fine folks of Smokywood Pastures and he's spreading cheer in celebration for the Feast of Winter Veil. But, all the cheer-spreading is making Greatfather Winter hungry, and he's looking for adventurers to get him his daily fix of milk and cookies.
New This Year:
Burning Crusade Holiday Bosses: as in past years, certain bosses will be dressed in a festive fashion and will drop seasonal hats when defeated. The holiday versions of the bosses will begin on Dec. 25 and end on Jan. 2. These bosses include:
- Grand Warlock Netherkurse (Shattered Halls)
- Grandmaster Vorpil (Shadow Labyrinth)
- Exarch Maladaar (Auchenai Crypts)
- Captain Skarloc (Durnholde Keep)
- Nethermancer Sepethrea (Mechanar)
- High Botanists Freywinn (Botanica)
Gifts Under the Tree
As a much-deserved reward for the adventurers throughout Azeroth, the Goblins deposit gifts underneath the decorated trees in Orgrimmar and Ironforge. Keep a keen eye out for these presents, as they're there for the taking!
The is a new gift that can be obtained from under the Winter Veil tree in Ironforge and Orgrimmar is a mechanical toy. It lets you summon a Mechanotoy non-combat pet to follow you around.
Preserved Holly
The Preserved Holly that players can get from completing special holiday quests can now be used on flying mounts. This will temporarily turn their flying mount into a flying reindeer that trails sparkles as it flies through the air.
Handful of Snowflakes
This is a new item you can be obtained by typing /kiss at a Winter Reveler NPC. It will create a light snowfall above any targeted player.
Returning Favorites
Quests:
Metzen the Reindeer
DISASTER has struck! Metzen the Reindeer has been kidnapped!
Metzen is one of Greatfather Winter's eight reindeer - and property of Smokywood Pastures. We've received not one but TWO ransom letters from groups claiming to have Metzen. With the holiday season well under way, we're strapped to the coin box here! Please - find Metzen and return him to us! Check out the ransom letters for clues, and sprinkle this reindeer dust on him - it will free him from any of his bonds!
Please, hurry!
You're a Mean One...(Mr. Greench)
A c-c-creature called "The Abominable Greench" is the one w-w-who stole our shipment of t-t-treats, . Be c-c-careful though! He is t-t-the one who turned me into this s-s-snowy mess!
You're g-g-gonna need some help in f-f-facing him. I've seen him w-w-wander all around where the y-y-yeti are; he's s-s-surely here s-s-somewhere! F-f-find the treats, take them b-b-back to Smokywood Pastures in Ironforge/Orgimar, and t-t-tell them I n-n-need to be unfrozen!

| QUOTE | | The term "Winter Veil" is said to stem from a supernatural being referred in many cultures to as Greatfather Winter. As he would walk the land late in the seasons, winter itself would be his billowing cloak. In his wake was the blanketing of the land in snow, and thus it is said that Greatfather Winter would cast his wintry veil over the land. Though parts of Azeroth may lie in snow, it gives the land time for rebirth and renewal. |
