2011 Christmas event

⌊undefined⌋

"A Towering Feast", also known as the 2011 Christmas event, is a seasonal RuneScape holiday event. It was announced in the December 2011 Behind the Scenes and was released on 20 December 2011. The event focuses on the wizards of Wizards' Tower. Players are able to party with the wizards and play in the snow. Rewards for the event include a Chaotic Cookery emote based on making a feast using a cannon, a Christmas wand and a new pet for members.



Walkthrough
To start this event, talk to Wizard Sinterklaas outside of the Wizards' Tower south of Draynor Village. Agree to help him, then go through the portal against the wall of the tower.

The portal takes you to a copy of the Wizards' tower. Enter the door of the second tower and talk to Sedridor. He will ask you to wait in the library because you're early. Tell Sedridor you're there to help and he will explain that he does need it, because all the other early arrivals (wizards from the Wizards' Guild) are only there to criticise. He will tell you who needs help and where.

During the quest if you talk to Sedridor he will explains the reason why there is a second tower, i.e. that the wizards are lazy and didn't want to both set up and tidy away, so they're going to set up in a pocket dimension for the feast and then destroy the dimension afterwards.

Helping Isidor
Isidor can be found in the basement of the tower. The player needs to help him cover the floor of the banquet area in snow by placing snow emitters.

When placed, the emitters shoot snow in four directions, blocked by furniture and bricked edges. Removing an emitter also removes the snow it placed. Emitters must not be placed where they can fire at each other.

Isidor will enchant the player to see the weak spots in the inter-dimensional rifts. The weak spots are shown as numbers. The larger the number, the more emitters can be placed near them. Emitters can only be placed near these rifts.

You are informed with a dialogue box when you have covered the floor with snow. If you think you have finished and do not get the dialogue then look carefully for a square that does not have snow on it.

Helping Wizard Grayzag/Whitezag
Wizard Grayzag, or Wizard Whitezag for those players who have completed the Void quest series, is on the top floor. He's standing in a corner and wearing a black robe. He's supposedly summoning some waiters. He needs help finding implings that escaped from him. There are four implings (two outside the castle, and two inside). Note: The fourth may or may not have the summoner's missing hat.
 * The first imp is on the first floor of the tower hiding under the bed in the south west room.
 * The second one is on the ground floor in the bookcase just the opposite side of the ladder.
 * The third is in the fountain just outside the tower.
 * The fourth one is in the oak tree around the back of the tower.

When you have sent all the imps home, go back and report to Grayzag/Whitezag.

Helping Kris and Kringle
Kris and Kringle are chefs hired to handle the catering. Speak to Kringle, near the cannon, and he will tell you to speak to Kris to find out what to do. Simply speaking to Kris will not work. They need help finding the ingredients for the Christmas pudding. Players will need to find the following: 5 enchanted Christmas puddings, 2 dragon eyes, 2 demon claws, and a Christmas spirit. Once you have retreived all the items, head back down and talk to Kris. He will then tell you to go talk to Kringle. Kringle will tell you to add the ingredients to the cooking device. Add the ingredients to the "cooking device" in the order: Christmas Pudding, Timmy's Claws, Dragon Eyes, Dwarven Spice (found in barrel nearby), and Christmas Spirit. Talk to Kringle and watch him cook (a short cutscene will play).
 * 5 Christmas Puddings: Watch for them to jump out of pots, etc. then "Check". It is possible to get 2 puddings from the same location.
 * Use a Christmas spirit jar on three different players (or NPCs). (Obtain jar from Kris)
 * Speak to Traiborn about dragon eyes. He is located on the first floor. He will refuse to give you the eyes from his dragon bust, so must be distracted by selecting the "thingummywhat" option, at which point you will automatically take the dragon eyes.
 * On the second floor, talk to Wizard Grayzag, Speak to Timmy to obtain the first claw. Speak to Timmy again. Then, use two Dolls, Snowballs, and puddings (found in Timmy's toy box) to anger Timmy and obtain the second claw. If you do happy emotes in between throws, he becomes more angered.
 * Ask Wizard Mizgog if he has a broken wand to obtain a sparking wand.

After the cutscene, you have to talk to Kringle again or it won't count as completed. He will say that he is a better cook than Humans and that his pudding is delicious.

Helping Wizard Sioncorn
Wizard Sioncorn, located on the top floor, is a Fairy wizard who needs you to help her get some decorations out of the attic. It seems that the decorations have come alive due to leaked magic from being in an attic full of powerful magic artefacts, and they keep trying to escape from her. While she carries a box to the portal, grab the decorations that jump out.

Once you have caught all the decorations, Wizard Sioncorn will tell you its okay to exit through the portal. When you attempt to do this, you'll get a message warning you that if you leave, anything on the floor will be lost forever. Exit anyway (unless you dropped something you need in there). Sioncorn will thank you for your help and her section of the event will be finished.

Finishing up
Go speak to Sedridor again to tell him you've finished. A cutscene will start, showing the wizards gathered around the table. An argument will break out between Grayzag/Whitezag and Frumscone, which Sedridor will teleport to a separate room. Quest complete.

Sparkles the Tinsel Snake
After the quest, talk to Sedridor sitting at the table; he will tell you about the dilemma of the escaped Christmas snake. You can choose to catch Sparkles, a members only pet. To catch the snake, go to the kitchen and simply skim through all of the pots, bags and jars. There's a possibility of catching Tinsel while checking the items in the room, but it can also be found on the floor moving from one place to another.

The Battle between Grayzog and Frumscone
After the quest, you can enter the chamber that Grayzog and Frumscone were teleported to so you can fight for one of the wizards' snowman army. You can grab snowballs from one of the teams' snow piles and make snowmen using the piles on the battlefield. You can also throw snowballs at snowmen for ten points of damage. There is also a counter at the top of the screen showing how many snowmen each side has killed.

Trivia

 * Kris and Kringle are references to one of the names for Santa Claus, Kris Kringle.
 * The cutscene where the player dodges the cannonball is a reference to the movie The Matrix.
 * Sinterklaas is the name of a saint (and holiday on 5 December) in the Netherlands and Belgium. Sinterklaas is also the origin of Santa Claus/Father Christmas.
 * Wizard Sinterklaas makes a reference to the BBC show Doctor Who, when he says the Wizard Tower is bigger on the inside.
 * Mod Pi has confirmed there is a 'secret' way to anger Timmy the demon, however it has not yet been found by players.
 * If you talk to Kris after the quest, he will give you a Christmas spirit jar (full), however when you leave the portal the Jar will be removed from you and you will get the message; "Some of the items from from your inventory were removed as you left the wizards' Christmas dimension."
 * If you try to set up a Dwarf Multicannon in the kitchen where the secret dwarven cooking device is, it will say "Too many cooks spoil the Cristmas Pudding!"
 * When you talk to wizard Korvak, you say 'Korvac' instead of 'Korvak'.
 * When a player talks to Aubury at the dinner table after finishing the quest, the player asks Aubury how his shop is doing. Aubury will reply that it is a lot quieter these days. This is a reference to the bot nuke, as many F2P bots were using Aubury to teleport to the essence mines.
 * When Kringle says, "Me always drink wine when I cook, sometimes it even goes into the food." is a reference to Julia Child.
