Welcome to October at least, a favorite for many at the Creeper's Lab! It's time for our regular rotation of challenges, plus the previously announced reset of Cimmeria! But what's this...?

Kenorland CIMMERIA: End of the world!

The End is Nigh. Cimmeria is dying. Smelling the incoming Apocalypse, the Horsemen have ridden out and turned the world to chaos.

The skies have turned purple, the rivers run red, the land is on fire, and the sun seems to have stopped rising. Even more concerning, the entire world seems to be imploding in on itself.

Hostile mobs, even those from the Nether, are now spawning all over the place and no longer seem to be scared of light. Even some of the usually timid animals seem to be running rabid.

Cimmeria is not a safe place right now, but the rewards are great. Dare you brave a dying world?

Watch the trailer below, and then read on for more information!

The Challenge

Search out the mobs that are spawning in weird places or behaving in strange ways. Collect the Sigils they drop, and trade them in at the End of the World vendor at Cimmeria spawn to earn a variety of rewards including the new Vestige of the Imploded Cimmeria.

Furthermore, collect the Seven Seals of the Apocalypse and turn them in to Death at the Horsemen Island in the Citadel to be rewarded with to receive 64 Horseman Points, 20 Merit Vouchers, 1 Acolyte Token, and a special surprise!.

You have until the end of October to complete these tasks, but you should be aware that the world border is shrinking over the course of the month! By the end of the month, only the Castle at spawn will remain. Plan your tasks accordingly, especially if you need to explore the outer reaches of Cimmeria.

Where to Look

• Sigil of the Blazing Sun can be obtained from the fire-based mobs now spawning in Deserts and Badlands. You can trade 64 of these for the Seal of War at the End of the World Vendor.
• Sigil of the Encroaching Nether can be obtained from some of the Nether mobs now spawning in biomes that are mostly open area such as Plains. You can trade 64 of these for the Seal of Conquest at the End of the World Vendor.
• Sigil of the Rabid Animal can be obtained from the mobs that are usually passive but have turned angry. You'll find these all over the place, but especially at Beaches. You can trade 64 of these for the Seal of Famine at the End of the World Vendor.
• Sigil of the Boiling Ocean can be obtained from the large mobs found swimming in the Oceans. You can trade 64 of these for the Seal of Death at the End of the World Vendor.
• Sigil of the Rioting Illager can be obtained from Illagers, who have started spawning in larger numbers in Mountainous biomes. You can trade 64 of these for the Seal of the Martyr at the End of the World Vendor.
• The Seal of Cataclysm can be obtained from a Warden, but only one will drop per player. These are now spawning in Swamp biomes.
• The Seal of Heaven can be obtained from a Wither, but only one will drop per player. You'll need to summon these yourself.

Other Information

• Keep Inventory will be on in Cimmeria for the entirety of this event.
• Mob Griefing and Fire Spread have been turned on! In addition, rules against griefing in Cimmeria are suspended this month, so feel free to go break things and blow everything up! Please note this rule change only applies in Cimmeria and is for this month only.
• This event runs until the end of October. The End of the World vendor will not be available after the month ends, so be sure to spend all your Sigils before the vendor disappears.
• A new Cimmeria will be created in November with a brand new seed. For more information, see this news post.

Science

October is here and Halloween has started! The month of pumpkins, monsters and ghouls is upon us! The Monster Mash rises from the dead and causes a ruckus in the Hunter's Lodge! Help send them back to their graves and earn some cool rewards too.

Please refer to the newspost for the 1.19 Hunter's Lodge update for information on what changed and how to upgrade your previous items.

Guilds

As with every new month, the guilds have new targets. You have until the end of this month to complete them and claim your tokens in each world! You can also continue progressing on Gondwana's Specialist tasks. The targets aren't to your liking? Masters can choose to drop suggestions in Gondwana's guildhall for the next month!

If you need details on any of these, the wiki page about the Monthly Challenges is updated as soon as each of these is ready at the beginning of the month!
