Daemon Moon Decaying
Daemon Moon Decaying is a Warhammer themed live event based on Nurgle and the Daemons of Chaos.
Every year, as fog covers the land and the autumn nights herald the chill of winter, the Daemon Moon rises. For scholars, the Daemon Moon is a dangerous time of year when the threat of a daemonic incursion is greatest. For the common-folk it is a time of revelry and chaos. The scholars are right to fear what is to come, for during the time of the Daemon Moon, daemonic forces are unleashed upon the mortal realm to play with the lives of the living. This year scholars have noted a disturbing greenish-brown tinge on the Daemon Moon, an ill omen of Nurgle's power. Nurgle has indeed hefted his mighty girth to the forefront, shoving his thinner brothers aside. This year, the Daemon Moon does not rise, it decays.
The common folk hide behind their masks and use this opportunity to play pranks on each other, unaware that lesser daemons often corrupt the mind behind the mask. Humans from the bustling streets of Altdorf in the Empire, to the twisted alleys of the Inevitable City in the Chaos Wastes, toy with powers they do not understand. If Nurgle is to be held at bay, you and your allies must work together to withstand the Daemon Moon Decaying.

Live Event Shoppe
A Suspicious Masked Peddler has set up shop in the Altdorf Slums, and a secluded room near the Apex of the Inevitable City. This vendor will gladly accept your gold and daemon fingers while the Daemon Moon is up, but please be aware that once the Daemon Moon fully decays, he too will fade from your life. Here players can buy new unique dyes, the Imp Curio to start a quest, or a bit of Pan de Monium. Players can also exchange their faction's cape for the opposing faction's default version, for a price.
Pan de Monium
This Estalian bread is specially baked during the Daemon Moon, with bakers leaving small gifts, or tricks, for their unwitting customers. Pan de Monium can be acquired either by completing the Imp Games quest, or purchasing it from the Suspicious Masked Peddler. Pan de Monium contains over thirty possible rewards, ranging from potions and talismans, to dyes and masks, a rare Companion Pet, or perhaps even a precious aegis for the lucky few.
