2013 Christmas event

Up to Snow Good is the 2013 Christmas holiday event. Zamorak, angered at his loss in the Battle of Lumbridge, has sent his greater demon minion "San’tar Klaws" to kidnap Santa Claus and ruin Christmas. It will take place in the crater west of Lumbridge, which is covered in snow for the event.

Players will have to choose between 'Naughty' and 'Nice' lists, deciding whether they want a Zamorakian Christmas, which will be filled with chaos and disorder or if they want a traditional Christmas (which is presumably Saradominist). The Snow imp (in the form of Pet Santa) and his Stray dog reindeer will also make an appearance, as will Sir Amik Varze, Thok, Marmaros, Wartface and Bentnoze, the Queen of Snow, Jack Frost, and the wizards from the Wizard's Tower.

Every 20 minutes, one of the sub-events will become the enhanced event, giving double points per activity.

The event
The 2013 Christmas event takes place in the Lumbridge crater which, after the Battle of Lumbridge, has been emptied. Being winter time, the crater is blanketed in snow, and various festive decorations are on display. There is a large snow globe containing a model of Lumbridge Castle floating over the hole in the center of the crater. There is a large bonfire in the northern area of the crater and, near it, are boxes of presents that function as a bank. There is a large Christmas tree in the center of the crater that players may decorate with baubles. Under it, are present boxes where a player may claim their rewards from the event.

Snowball Arena
Gather explosive snow, and pelt others for naughty points. Collecting and pelting others with enchanted snow will earn a player "nice" points. Points are only awarded when another player is hit. Players who are hit too many times will be evicted from the arena, and all their snowballs will melt.

Wizard Banquet
Five types of Christmas food, and five corresponding "naughty" foods are available from a serving table.

The player is asked to serve the eight wizards seated at the table from the food provided. Serving the food requested by the wizard gives 1 nice point, which increases every five correct servings until it reaches 5 points. Similarly, serving the substitute foods will earn the player the respective points.

This is the fastest point-earning event.

Reindeer Petting Zoo
The player can stroke a reindeer for 2 points or feed the reindeer a carrot for 3 points. Friendly reindeer give "nice" points, evil reindeer give "naughty" points. The player can also convert the reindeer between friendly and evil, saying "Ho ho ho" or "Muahaha" depending on the direction of the conversion.

Baubles
Adding baubles to the Christmas Tree in the centre of the crater will reward either 10 Naughty of Nice points, depending on whether you decorate it badly or not. Baubles can be obtained by skilling, from monster drops, and from the Squeal of Fortune.

Freeing Santa
After you have obtained either 750 Nice points or 750 Naughty points, San'tar Claws will either be terrified of your Christmas cheer or impressed by your naughtiness, and as a result, he will free Santa from his Cage and disappear. Santa will either thank you for saving Christmas, or cheride you for ruining it, and will reward you with a Large festive lamp and the Rockin' Around the Tree emote.

Other activities
Besides the main event, a number of other activites can be performed around the crater. Thok has created a large bonfire, on which things can be cooked for extra cooking experience. Adding logs to the bonfire also grants boosted experience, with more experience being given if you are wearing a festive outfit (items rewarded from Christmas events). The christmas presents next to Thok serve as bank chests, useful for restocking on food and/or logs.

Diango can also be found in the crater, and sells various Christmas foods, in addition to performing his regular roles of selling toys and returning holiday items.

Rewards
The rewards are unlocked, not bought at certain levels of "total points" i.e. naughty + nice. So a total of 2,000 points will allow all rewards to be unlocked.
