Special events are one of the great things about Stendhal, they can be organised either by admin or players, and they takes different forms.

Raids

A raid is a special event where players are invited to help kill swarms of creatures which suddenly appear in one place. Usually an NPC shouts about needing help and tells you where it is needed.

There are frequently asked questions about raids.

Show fights

In a show fight creatures are pitted against each other in battle. It can be one on one battles against evenly matched creatures, or one strong creature against many weaker ones. Sometimes players can bet on the outcome of the battle. Of course these fights are held within enclosed arenas so that there is no danger to watching players.

  Suddenly a huge number of clones showed up at Semos' bank. Quickly a number of normal people formed a line of protection.
