Harvest Festival/Description

==Trick or Treat! Hand out treats to the masked denizens of the city!== People from around the land are walking about dressed as a variety of fearsome monsters, hoping to scare the living daylights out of adventurers like you. By giving these costumed NPCs in the following areas a treat, you will be able to dress up in a costume of your own. And if you are really lucky, you might even obtain a special Halloween-themed item!

◆Costumed NPCs can be found in the following locations: Southern San d'Oria / Northern San d'Oria Bastok Mines / Bastok Markets Windurst Waters / Windurst Woods *NPCs will accept most sweets, with certain exceptions that do not appeal to their finicky palates.

This year's incarnation of the event will once again feature some ordinary citizens dressed as Cyhiraeths. Trading them certain sweets will change you into a similar form, in which performing a certain action will reward you with some fabulous items.
