Hello everyone,
I'm Hells-Wolf (Wolf for short), self appointed leader of the wolver mask supremacy association.
As part of the association's master plan of wolver global domination I have decided that it is time to spread our ideology by allowing the community to engage in wolver themed activities in exchange for some wolver themed rewards, including some very rare goodies from GH who agreed to support our rightful cause (we have pretty good pamphlets) .
The event will officially run between Oct 1st-Oct 8th from (9 AM GMT +3 / 2 AM EST) (except the art event which starts now) and be divided into 3 sub-events. (you may participate in all of them)
Each sub-event will give the following rewards:
1st place - Shadowtech wolver mask (GH sponsored, 1 copy of Shadowtech orange, green, and pink mask available. I'll put the masks inside a box so not even I will know which event gives which color to make the color random and not depend on an event type).
2nd place - Heavy doggie tail
3rd place - Your choice of a standard color wolver mask (i.e., not shadowtech, wicked, divine or volcanic), I will contact the winner and ask for their preferred color before delivering the reward
Participation prize - 1 reaper rib from my personal collection (high sentimental value)
Submissions can be made directly to me via discord (@welf2915) or ingame (IGN: Hells-Wolf)

EVENT 1 - ART CONTEST
• Starts now (good luck)
The rules are very simple – draw a wolver / snarbolax / wolver mask wearing knight (doesn't have to be an actual player) or any other wolver themed drawing (You may draw my knight if you want since it fits the theme, you can DM me and ill send reference pictures, as long as it’s done with proper respect and credit).
• No AI allowed (I highly encourage you to document your drawing process or keep WIPs in case we ask to see them). Other than that feel free to draw however you like (digital, color pencils, sharpies, crayons, oil on canvas will be mighty impressive).
• No NSFW, this one is probably obvious but better play it safe
• You can submit multiple times but we will only judge one image from the last submission
Judging will be done by me + 2 judges based on the following criteria:
• Wolfiness – How well it depicts the wolver theme (0-5 points)
• Art style – How much we love the art style, its quality, and how unique it is (0-5 points)
• Design – How much we love what’s being depicted (0-5 points)
• Originality – How original is the concept of the image, you are allowed to attach some lore, a short story, or description here (0-2 points)
Total 51 points (17 points × 3 judges)

EVENT 2 - KNIGHT'S FIRST SNARBOLAX SPEEDRUN
The event starts on Oct 1st but I'm including the rules now to let you prepare gear and strategies.
This competition tests how quickly you can clear 3-2 Shadow of the beast on solo on elite difficulty, but I'm adding a few extra requests to even out the field - this is a test of skill, not a test of who has a GM soaker and barb thorn blade. Players are required to submit a video to me via discord or ingame (youtube link or anything that doesn't require downloading would be best) and follow all of the following rules:
• To make sure that your submission video was taken during the event it must include you typing Lycodon (the Latin genus name for wolf snakes if you were wondering)
• Only 2★ gear or lower with no UVs is allowed (2★ trinkets or lower also ok). Battle sprites are also banned.
• The entire run must be recorded with no splicing or missing gaps.
• The recording must show the mission difficulty (elite), player’s gear (including an inspection of all pieces to show they have no UVs).
• The use of mods that give unfair advantage is banned (if you're in doubt talk to me or play without mods to be safe).
• Cheating/hacking without mods is also not allowed, in case you were wondering…
• The entire run must be solo.
• Time starts once the player leaves the one-way barrier at the start and ends once Snarbolax’s death animation begins to play.
• Players may submit as many times as they want but only the last submission will be judged.
Judging will be done by two independent judges with a 3rd judge if there is a disagreement between them.

EVENT 3 - Wolver fashion contest
Naturally, there is a proper dress code for this event, but who wore it the best? (me, but we can still decide on 2nd-4th places).
• Dress your knight in the best wolver / Snarbolax themed outfit you can design and send me a screenshot or a short video of it, you can include as many screenshots as you require (within reason) to best show the outfit
• The use of mods, 3rd party software or model viewers is not allowed (those are against TOS after all) but you are allowed to show previews from your inventory or the auction house (you can borrow items from friends or preview stuff from merchants if they allow it).
• Your outfits will be judged by a panel of three very judgmental judges (me + 2 others) based on the following criteria:
• Wolfiness – How much does the outfit actually looks like a proper wolver or captures the theme (0-5 points)
• Design & originality – How much we like the outfit and how original it is (0-5 points)
• Flow – How well each piece fits with each other, is there clipping or any other visual issues (0-5 points)
• Background or origin story – bonus point if the costume comes with some background or information that we like (0-2 point)
- I will give you a heads up that if you're putting wings on a wolver outfit or something like that I'm expecting to hear reasons in the background & origin section.
Total 51 points (17 points × 3 judges)
Ties will be resolved by majority vote or coin flip if the first option somehow doesn't work.

Good luck, have fun, feel free to discuss or reach out if you have any questions.
Snarbolax speedrun
• The keyword is Lycodon and you must type it (ingame) as part of the recording
• you are allowed to buy health capsules and vitapods from Basil in the lobby if you want to.
• Weapons with built in damage bonuses are ok to use as long as there are no UV on them (e.g., big beast basher's beast: High bonus is ok since its an integral part of the weapon and not a bonus).
• You are allowed to heat your gear, just no UVs. Apperantly clean gear also means no heat to some of you so I edited it out to avoid confusion.
Art contest
• Just a quick clarification that wolf ≠ wolver (see https://wiki.spiralknights.com/Wolver), you don't have to copy their color scheme or anything but the design should look like a wolver and not like a regular wolf.
