MEMORANDUM

TO: All Knights

FROM: Spiral HQ

SUBJECT: On Staying Grounded

Thank you for your assistance in last month's OPERATION THWACK, which was a partial success in that we discovered Gremlins easily sniff out knights disguised as Gremlins, despite liberal application of Thwacker Body Spray.

Based upon this new, current information, we have recalibrated our infiltration strategy. What do Gremlins live and work near constantly, yet pay little heed to, and which definitely don't smell like a Gremlin?

Constructs, knights. Constructs. Yes, these manufactured monsters have the full run of Gremlin territory, no questions asked. If caught, a disguised knight can simply jerk and flail like one of the other malfunctioning machines Gremlins keep on hand.

We are abandoning OPERATION THWACK for now, and commencing OPERATION ZAP. We have procured and retrofitted Construct gear to transform any knight in need, and we bring it to you in the Construct Prize Box through October 13, 2014:

Costume Items

• Mecha Suit
  
• Mecha Helm
  
• Gun Pup Helm

Accessories

• Gear Halo
  
• Wind-up Key
  
• Exhaust Pipes
  
• Prismatic Pylons
  
• Wrench

Details on this positively electrifying array of items can be found here.

SUMMARY: OPERATION ZAP begins now! Stay grounded and positive, knights, and relay any intel you find back to those in charge at Spiral HQ.

P.S. Watt puns?

ATTENTION ALL KNIGHTS

THIS IS NOT A DRILL

Despite rigorous precautionary measures, black kats are reappearing en masse and consuming the treasures held in the Moorcroft Manor Archives!

We need all able personnel--knights of rank 4-1 and greater--to suit up and assist in the retrieval of Ancient Pages from these voracious creatures. Do the Kataclysmic Confrontation prestige mission and/or fight through kat levels in the Clockworks to find black kats. Then, visit Montague in Moorcroft Manor, or the Mysterious Crafting Machine in Haven, with your collection of Ancient Pages, and craft stuff:

• Kat Claw hood, mask, cowl
  
• Kat Hiss hood, mask, cowl
  
• Kat Eye hood, mask, cowl

If you happen to perform (accidentally, we assume) a Dark Ritual (yes, THAT dark ritual) and survive the encounter, you may find yourself in possession of a Black Kat Cowl or a Wicked Whisker. With Wicked Whiskers, dropped for all present party members, the following new costume items can be made:

• Kat Claw cloak, mail, raiment
  
• Kat Hiss cloak, mail, raiment
  
• Kat Eye cloak, mail, raiment
  
• Black Kat cloak, mail, raiment, hood, mask

If you have participated in a previous Kataclysmic Confrontation and still have Ancient Page tokens, those are still valid! Ancient Page tokens do not expire.

For miraculous, unexplainable science reasons, we are able to predict that the Kataclysmic Confrontation will run through September 29, 2014. Thank you for your assistance in this important mission!
