It’s April Fools season (?) in the MMO world, and for Neverwinter, that means an outbreak of frisky poultry. Yes, it’s “April Fowls,” a wide-ranging event that starts on March 31st and ends April 14th.
During this event, players can join the fight against a chicken thief in the sewers — and his undead birds. The chase prize for this particular activity is a Ring of Fowl Weather artifact that spits out chickeny tornadoes.
“Seems that something fowl is taking over Neverwinter and it’s all centered around a poor civilian by the name of Earl,” Cryptic said. “Earl the Chickenmancer has been cursed with a Touch of the Chicken. His ability to turn things into chickens has become a hazard to Neverwinter! ”
Additionally, players can help cull out-of-control chickies, earn a giant undead bird mount, engage in PvP (that’s poultry-vs-poultry) bouts, and earn currency to buy a variety of rewards.
