    Let the walk of shame end! For I have returned and dropped off a gift! And received one in return!

    Along with this wonderful gift was a lovely note, taking notice on my many adventures and quests I have handed out! So to my Secret Santa, thank you for the gift and wonderful words...and as you suggested, this bloody skull will be put into play in an upcoming quest! Huzzah!

    My jaw dropped and I can't seem to fit it back right.

    Unless I'm mistaken, I believe Camdan is @k1w1uk, based on his level of involvement with this event.

    By the way I'd love to see all the bit marks you got after trying to stuff a dark wolf in that box. Priceless

    I'd like to apologize for being so tardy with my gift. I "watched" this thread and was tagged in it several times and got exactly ZERO notifications.

    Thank you so much to my Secret Santa. I'm blown away by your generosity and skill!! I'm definitely changing my avatar!!

    Yeah, had a problem with that when I ran it. I felt bad for the folks, so I made up the gifts myself. Gave away an orange spooky skull candle that year for it, heh.

    My Secret Santa was generous well beyond what I deserve. I'd like to offer my thanks by way of a new Shard Creature that I wouldn't have been able to afford to do were it not for the bounty with which he provided me:

    http://uorforum.com/threads/christmas-culli-is-back.29661/

    Wanted to do this more last year, but couldn't afford it. Never fear, Secret Santa. Some of it will be put toward deco. And the kittens are finally safe! They wanted me to thank you for them! :p

    ***A vast dining table stretches across the great hall***
    ***A rowdy crowd is eating and drinking merrily*
    *El Horno picks up a goblet from the table and raises it up over his head*
    *The diners take notice and the murmer dies down*
    *He lowers the goblet and begins speaking*
    When @k1w1uk reached out to me to see if I needed help with running this event I was extremely hesitant. I had never interacted with him before and it felt like a lot of risk. Nonetheless his message was done in great roleplay fashion, and he invited me to come down to the Winter Wonderland and check it out. The decoration was so festive I knew his intentions were good, and I did something most people would not recommend on the internet, I trusted him.
    And so we set out to host this fine event, all the while my fingers crossed that @k1w1uk wasn't about to pull the grinchiest heist of UOR history. With 69 participants both dropping off and receiving gifts, it is safe to say I severely underestimated the amount of work it would take to host this event. I could not have done it without @k1w1uk aka Camdan. He gives me too much credit. The majority of both pickups and deliveries were handled by him, and with a holiday cheer that I could not match. I would generally just hand the gift off and log immediately to get back to the elf grind, Father Christmas on the other hand exchanged "HO HO HO's" and roleplaying with each and every visitor.
    I just want to give a big shoutout to @k1w1uk for not only proving that you can always trust a roleplayer , but for managing and executing the lion's share of the event. He told me that he reached out to me to help because he wanted to start putting himself out there in the community and letting people get to know him. He just made an amazing impression and he is clearly a standup trustworthy guy.
    *lifts goblet again*
    TO @k1w1uk ! May he live as a free Sosarian forever!
