Icicle crown

Players were asked to fight an evil tree to signify the handover of the Year, but things took a turn for the worse when the ritual turned out to be ineffective.

Free players and members were rewarded with a sunbeam crown and an Invoke Spring emote. Members could fight an evil hawthorn tree to gain an icicle crown. Both crowns were permanent, although their effects could only be used until the week commencing 31st May; the crowns gave information on the location of evil trees and teleported players to fully grown trees. A teleport expended one charge from a crown; each crown had two charges by default and could hold a maximum of 30 charges. If a player killed an appropriate evil tree in the Land of Holly and Hawthorn (an evil holly tree for the sunbeam crown, and an evil hawthorn tree for the icicle crown) the crown gained two more charges. Each crown could be used 30 times before they became ineffective.
