October is here - so let's get started. Today, you will begin to see the Halloween Pumpkins appear as 'Play to Win' festive handouts. These come in the usual format of the pop-up message on screen at random times. The more you play in the periods between messages, the more you will receive.
Special Halloween Exchange
I'm starting the hand out early. This is so you can begin to COLLECT the Pumpkins, as they have a SPECIAL use! I have opened the Halloween Exchanges, this store is looking to take as MANY of the Pumpkins off your hands as you have.
They will pay you 1,000 XP per Pumpkin PLUS award you a Halloween Point. These points you can then use to Purchase Special PODS. These are pods ONLY created and available for the Halloween Festivities! You will only be able to gain them through the Exchange office, and only trade for them in Halloween Points. So hand in ALL your pumpkins.
Of course, in a sign of fairness, the pumpkins still retain their normal festive store value if you don't wish to take part in grabbing some great pumpkin Pods!
Festive NPC's Ready for Dispatch
I have revived the Festive Halloween NPC's from their year-long hibernation sleep. I warmed them up and gave them all a strong coffee. They are now ready to begin their duty stations, handing out prizes in return for Pumpkins. They have also been given permission to inflate their handouts somewhat this year, so check them out.
Claim a Festive NPC
Why not get in early and claim a Festive NPC for your Settlement. I'm offering you the chance to ask for a festive NPC (chosen at random) to be added to your settlement for the Festive Period between now and the beginning of January. If you'd like one, pop over to THIS POST can read the details and claim one.
Halloween Collection
As has become the norm these days, I will be running my 'Collect one of each Pumpkin', then drop them off to me, for a festive special prize this year. You'll note we are also adding an Exile Resource Token to that list! This is a Collection competition and as with my NEW hand in method for some of these 'larger' hand ins you will be able to hand them in Via the in Game PM section of the game.
You can check out what you need and how to enter and collect your reward OVER HERE
Make sure to READ fully and follow the instructions, you have LOTS of time so don't panic and the hand in remains open till the 5th of November. So lots of time for late player to player trades etc.
Halloween Promenade Hunt
I seeded over a 1,000 pumpkins that will be appearing on the Promenades you will be visiting over October. Note these down and report ONE to me via This competition post. You only need to report one to be entered into a Special Prize Draw on the 1st of November. Prizes to be announced at the time 
Rexxoleen Calendar
We are on the lookout for the missing pieces of the infamous Rexxoleen Calendar. A nice fat reward is in store for those that take the time to collect them, hand them in and THEN report the fact - check out the details OVER HERE
More Competitions and Events
There will be more to come this October but this should get you started and the collections underway! Thanks for taking part in the Core-Exiles Universe and being such a Cool bunch of fellow Exiles!
Have fun folks!
