Graveyards and Fields in October

Graveyards

Starting in 2006 October has become a very special month in Sosaria. Any character who dies, anywhere, during this month has a chance of producing a skeletal knight or bone knight in one of the world’s graveyards, some of those will carry the character’s name. Killing these creatures, whether named or not, has a chance of containing in the corpse a bone container bearing the name of the character. There are a number of different poses and hues to the bones, an example of only some of them below.
In 2024 three player death skulls were added to the possible drops

Also in graveyards during this month can be found ‘Butchers’. These creatures, named for UO Developers, have a chance to carry on their corpse a pumpkin carving kit. More on that below.

Pumpkins

During October pumpkins appear in all manner of farmer’s fields, in among them are named Jack O’lanterns. Double clicking one of these releases a Grimm. Fight it for a chance to find in its corpse a carveable pumpkin. To cause more Jack O’lanterns to spawn, remove the smaller pumpkins from the field.

Use a carving kit from a ‘butcher’ to carve the various pumpkin styles. A very few examples of the many available shown below.
