Default Dragon Festival-Event

Quote:
Guild Wars FactionsTM Dragon Festival
June 30, 2006 7:00 GMT – July 5, 2006 7:00 GMT



In the spirit of celebration, adventurers on the continent of Cantha are cordially invited to the Dragon Festival, a summer festival with all the trimmings!

After the destruction wrought by the Jade Wind, the newly crowned Emperor Hanjai (the eldest son of the assassinated emperor) oversaw the settlement of Shing Jea Island and the expansion of Kaineng City. The following summer, Emperor Hanjai dedicated a new Dragon Festival to commemorate the survival of the Empire of the Dragon.

Participants in the Dragon Festival can join in fun carnival-type games (Whack-A-Worm, anyone?), play new mini-missions and special PvP gameplay, undertake unique quests, and collect Asian-flavored treats such as red bean cakes and rice wine. Ceremonial Dragon Masks will be awarded to those players who are able to collect enough globes filled with the Jade Wind essence that changed Cantha two hundred year ago. The conclusion of the Dragon Festival will be marked with surprises true Canthans won't want to miss.

Taking place in and around the Shing Jea Monastery on June 30, 2006 at 7:00 GMT and running through July 5, 2006 at 7:00 GMT, the Dragon Festival is an exclusive weekend event for Guild Wars Factions players.

So I can only get masks for 2 of 6 toons, nice. Gotta love that reward for my continued support. Sure makes me want to buy chapter 3 so my Factions and Prophesies toons can get screwed.

Red Bean Cakes?

The New Candy Cane?

Hope so, I'm all out of CC's.

Fates Monk you may not be totally wrong here, assuming that "true Canthans" refers to faction born Chacters. But Who knows.
