As is our tradition, we will be offering our players a way to obtain a limited edition commemorative item in recognition of those who have served their country. Watch for details on our Ravenwood News page starting November 9th.

Harvest Hannah and the Harvest Festival will also make an appearance later in the month, and if you haven't heard already, Azteca (which is currently in the Test Realm) is coming very soon to the Live Game!

Keep reading the newsletter for more details!

Coming Soon: the new world of Azteca!

This world is currently only on the Test Realm but will be coming to the Live Game this month. Azteca is home to the Aztecosaurs; the oldest race in the Spiral. Long believed to have been lost, this world now lives in peril of being destroyed... Players who are a minimum of level 80 and who have completed the Avalon quest "A Great Storm Coming" must speak to Cyrus Drake in Ravenwood (not Merle like you usually do). He will send you along to Marleybone for a very unique experience. Completing Cyrus' quest will give you the Spiral Key to Azteca.

We invite our players over the age of 13 to participate in our Show and Tell Contest on Facebook!

How can I enter?

Beginning on Thursday, November 1st, Wizard101 and Pirate101 players can enter the Show and Tell Contest and win amazing prizes on our
Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/wizard101!

Each week we will ask players to submit a story on various themes:

Week 1: Family Bonding – Tell us a story about how playing Wizard101 has brought your family closer together or created additional family bonding opportunities.
Week 2: Learning – Tell us about the ways that KingsIsle’s games have contributed to learning in your family or helped you sharpen skills.
Week 3: Inspiration – Tell us how KingsIsle’s games have driven inspiration or creativity with you and your family members.

What kind of prizes can I win?

  This is the November 2012 installment of my Book of the Month Club. These books have been suggested by a fellow Librarian from Earth, her name is Kit Ward-Crixell and she is a librarian in New Braunfels, Texas, USA.

We continue with tales akin to Avalon with the book Roland Wright, Future Knight by Tony Davis. The first line of this book is already funny! And if you DON’T want to hear about blood squirting like ketchup out of a fast-food ketchup packet, you don’t want to read this book. But if you’re interested in reading about a ten-year-old kid who really wants to be a knight but can’t, and how he gets a chance to be a knight anyway, you’ll like this funny book that also teaches some real facts about the Middle Ages.
  
Look for this book in your school or local library and enjoy reading, young Wizards!
