Event: Ice Age

<center><h1>MAMMOTH HUNT</h1>
<i>Now that numerous new species have paved their way onto Boreas, something even more unusual has been spotted...
Sparse herds of mammoths can now be found across Boreas. While similar in general appearance to an elephant, these massive creatures tower high above their native counterparts, and are covered with thick coats of shaggy fur. To take one down would be a colossal task, but perhaps not impossible…</i>

<b>REQUIREMENTS</b>:
To successfully take down a mammoth (and claim an exclusive award, and applicable skill points), the following requirements must be met:

<ul> <li>10 or more participants (only 2 can belong to the same player, per each hunt)</li>
<li>2 completed threads total (3+ rounds for each participant in each thread)</li>
<ul><li>1 preparation thread<br>Any essential preparations before the fight begins. Are weapons made? Poisons prepared? Who is running the hunt? How do you plan to go about this? Who has what roles?</li>
<li>1 hunt thread<br> The actual hunt! Everyone must be participating in their own way.</li>
</ul>
<li>Threads must be done consecutively. That is, all participants much finish the preparation thread before moving on to the hunt itself!</li>
<li>If a participant doesn't post to an ongoing thread within <b>3 OOC days</b>, someone in the hunt can post in Maintenance, kicking the character from the hunt and allowing an NPC Dire Wolf to join in on the hunt to keep it going. Staff can also do this if they notice a character has not been posted. <i>If this happens, please no hard feelings! Due to the requirements of this event, it's vital things move along swiftly! If 3 participants drop out, the hunt will automatically fail.</i></li>
<li>Only one hunt per character!</li>
</ul>
