Happy 5th Anniversary Renaissance!

Make sure to join #5th in IRC to take part in the event at the scheduled times.

To celebrate the 5th Anniversary of UO Renaissance going live we have a few special things planned for our players.

Players with accounts over 21 days old will notice a special bag placed in their bank upon login. These will be awarded from 9/1/2017 to 9/7/2017 and are given 1 per account. These items will be placed directly in your bank, for players who might have logged out in hazardous locations, so make sure to check there.

To celebrate the anniversary we have created an exclusive line of clothing, jewelry and decorative items. Each item is named to celebrate the occasion.

Each bag has a chance to contain the following

• 1 5th Anniversary Clothing Item (hue 1195,1376)
• 1 5th Anniversary Jewelry Item (newbied, hue 1195,1376)
• Chance for an anniversary mug
• 1 Hair Restyle Deed, Beard Restyle Cream, or Clothing Bless Deed
• 1 Fireworks Wand
• 1 Special Named Bag (hue 1195,1376)
• Rare Chance for a mystery item

During our anniversary weekend we will be running a 4 part scavenger hunt event.

Over 100 Items in Total!
Unique Item Note: The prize room this year includes unique items that have gone out of circulation per our unique item standards and website interface. These items are included in the prize room because we can now add new copies into circulation. Once an item has been stored in an inactive players bank or possession for over 90 days it is considered out of circulation and is viable for re-introduction in the yearly anniversary event.

Note: The locations being chosen for the event are known only to myself. No other staff or volunteers have been involved in the selection process or clue design.
