Comet

is a celestial occurrence that happens annually in the sky of New Britannia.


 * A nearby two-tailed comet is having a number of unusual side effects on locale fauna. Creatures of many regions are bolder and more ferocious, including unicorns, wyverns, and the like. Further, several variant anomalies have appeared... named the aether dragon, aether lich, and aether corpion by my peers. If traveling across the wilderness was mildly dangerous before, now it will be swiftly fatal for most adventurers!

Trivia

 * Astronomers agree that, based on observations of the movement of the comet, the closest approach to Novia will be sometime near the end of the Earth month of August, after which time it will begin to recede again. They predict that its approach will result in an increase in meteor activity around this time. Its proximity to New Britannia has already had an ever-increasing influence on the creatures of the world. In some cases it is merely increasing their power, but in a few cases it is actually mutating them into entirely new creatures. Three new creatures have been spotted in Novia and the Hidden Vale: Aether Dragons, Aether Corpions, and Aether Liches. It is rumored that there are rare rewards for defeating these new creatures…
