September in Achaea!

It's September already and while we're saying goodbye to the wheel, and Mayan Crowns, this month we say hello to a lesson sale and giftbags!

Throughout all of September, lessons will be available for sale on the Achaea website at a significantly discounted rate - this is a fantastic opportunity to shore up your skills, take on a new class, partake in the new tradeskills, or for those of you putting it off forever, finally learn those miniskills you've been avoiding!

On top of that, every 100 credits purchased will reward a giftbag! This is cumulative, so if you purchase 50 credits today and 50 tomorrow, you'll still get a giftbag for crossing over the 100 credit threshold!

Every five giftbags obtained will reward an ultimate talisman cache!

Within these giftbags are various prizes, including:

- Artefacts ranging from 25-150 cr in value
- Rare artefacts including eagle's wings, veil of the sphinx, diadem, and stat artefacts.
- Glowing interlocked (talisman) cache:
This opens for Conclave, Blackwave, Marks, or Races.
This cache will award 2 pieces, one of which is guaranteed to be rare.
- Interlocked (talisman) cache that opens for Monks or Cities set.
- Credits
- Legenddeck sleeves
See HELP LEGENDDECK for all the information!
- Artefact discount vouchers
- Golden giftbags
See HELP PROMO ITEMS for all the details on Golden Giftbags!
These will also be given with an interlocked cache that opens for the Death talisman set!
- Phials of shimmering ink
- Crafter portfolios or shining feathers
- A minipet cache* that will contain either an energetic joey or a tundral skua
- A battle figurine case* that will contain either a figurine of Zafikel, Prime Exarch of Nur, or a figurine of Imperator Glaaki, the Eldritch Ascendant
- Birthday presents**

* If your giftbag contains a minipet cache or a battle figurine case, you will also get one of the following consumeables: an experience orb, a critical hit boosting clover, or a cyclone bottle.

** A Birthday present
There are three tiers of surprises to be found in the presents: common, rare, and super rare.
For each tier, more potential items are added to the list of things you can get.

Some prizes also generate one of these random consumable birthday items:
* A goblet
This will refill with an appropriately celebratory liquor at each Serenade.
* A party stick for 10 uses of coloured illusions!
See HELP ILLUSIONS for details.
* A party favour. BLOW this to deafen the room!
It has a balance cost and 10 uses.
* A jumbo-sized firecracker. Celebrate our birthday Garden style!
This firecracker gives you 5 worldwide fireworks!

You can UNWRAP a birthday present for a chance at one of the following:
Common items found in birthday presents:
* One of three Crooks.
SWAT <player> WITH <crook> and see what happens!
These have a limited number of uses.
* an enamel bubble pipe
Blow bubbles with this artefact pipe (ivory equivalent)
* a conical party hat
Much more stylish than a boring old top hat.
* googly goggles of whitesight
I think the name says it all!

Rare items found in birthday presents:
* a horn of jubilant plenty
This horn generates party food!
* a beribboned cane
Walk faster and in style with this festooned Cane of Quickening.

Super rare items found in birthday presents:
* a palmed probing stick
Vibrating sticks are so 2015.
* a festive paper crown
Who needs a diadem and gems when you can have a paper crown?
* pearlescent fairy wings
The fairies can fly high with the eagles.

In addition, the Delosian Talisman Shop has been updated - MARKS is now retired, and DEATH makes a return! See HELP DEATH TALISMANS for details!

As September is Achaea's birthday month, we also have a series of events and fun games planned throughout - see my next announce post for details soon!

Visit www.achaea.com/credits to get yours today!
