It's that time of the year again when all the ghosts, skeletons, and pumpkins come back to the Spiral! Spooky Bob, Jack O' Lantern, and the whole gang are back to bring you a scary good time this Halloween season. What's new this year? What's being brought back? Keep reading for all the spooktacular information!

The time has come to say goodbye... As most of you know, I rarely play Wizard101 anymore and I don't really blog anymore. As of May 26th, I will be officially quitting the blog, Spiral Live, and Wizard101. Yes I will still check out all the community blogs constantly and I will still be active on my twitter, and you might even see me in-game once or twice a month.

Heya Wizardly readers,

I want to introduce you to a new blog. My twin Talon Thunderblade and I have opened up a blog that we both contribute to called Tale of The Crystal Flame. Talon and I share our stories and thoughts on that blog. We would very much appreciate it if you checked it out and followed it. If you add it to your blog roll that would mean so much to us :)

So now a quick word from Talon and his newest post:

"My fair twin Blaze Shadowhorn and I decided to make a partner twin blog called "Tale of The Crystal Flame". We'll sharing thoughts and experiences that we share or may not. Go check it out, follow it, add it to your blog roll please. Speaking of partner blogs, Victoria and I would appreciate it if you did the same for "Smart n Heroic Timelords". Thanks."

Please make sure to follow Talons blog The Heroic Pyromancer and don't forget to check out Tale of The Crystal Flame and follow it.

Bye bye Wizardly readers! Until next post XD

*Keep It Frosty!*

I just read my "twin" Talon Thunderblade's most recent post and it meant the world to me :) It was on his Friend Awards and what he said for me just was very kind hearted. You can find his post here. Here is what he wrote:

A friend that is my twin.
Blaze Shadowhorn. Ok, this goes way back to June. Remember me meeting up with Ed? Blaze wanted to meet me as well. Blaze was on Wizard because it was the run with Thomas Lionblod, the Ravenwood Radio crew, and him. I will cherish that night because it was such great time. I got to add four famous bloggers (or at least to me). Edward got to add Friendly also! So one very late night, Stormriven, he asked if I wanted to farm with him. Although I had almost max gold, I still wanted to help him and save up drops to my shared bank so I could get more gold. Obviously, you need to talk about something when farming and battling because if you didn't there wouldn't be much fun. I started talking about my likes, which lead to more of hobbies. Turns out we had all things in common hobby/likes-wise. We eventually confirmed that we were twins. In fact I made huge a post dedicated to him here. Blaze and I really wanted to meet each other in real life. We thought it could never happen, but... We actually did meet up...twice. Yes, you read right, Blaze Shadowhorn and Talon Thunderblade met in real life at *insert city name park* It took forever to meet up in real life because it was completely unplanned. The conflicts were so desolating, but we made it through the end...twice. I talk with Blaze just about everyday. He inspires me, that twin of mine...

So with that I say, Talon, you will be my twin forever and I am glad to have met you :)

WONDER TWIN POWERS ACTIVATE!
-Blaze

Yo yo you Wizzys! You are here for the first ever Blaze's Weekly Overview Post!!! I kinda took the idea from Nick but me and him are bros so he wont care :P Basically I am going to talk about this whole weeks topics in just one post!!! Your probably like, Blaze... You never do this! You like your separate posts...
I feel like doing this because I am behind on my posts and this is to catch up lol.

Myth Questing in Marleybone.
So yea my myth is almost done Marleybone! Just have a few more instances then I am done. I am lazy to include pictures and more detail for this sub-post cause it's boring so onto the next sub-post!!!

Test Realm!!!
Yup the test realm is up! Although it doesn't involve new worlds or anything I still think it is pretty cool :) Here is what's being tested:

The Black Panther is now in the Crown Shop!!!
Maps have been updated for game worlds (Grizzleim and Celestia)
New Housing Signs are available in the Crown Shop!
Ability to place items in water in Sunken Palace! (Finally ;)

So lets start with a rundown of all of them in order.

The Black Panther I like because you can finally get it from the Crown Shop!!! I don't like it because I still have my 15 day rental :P
The Maps I haven't seen but I heard that there isn't much of a difference except for some new labels on them so that's cool I guess.
The Housing Signs are where it's at! These are totally epic! You now don't have to worry about wondering who's house your in because you can now get signs that can say 107 different sayings! I definitely want this because it is easier for me to label my houses rather then, Sultans Palace, Storm House, etc. I can now pick from different signs! Some of them include "Gone Fishing", etc. They can range from 500 to 1,500 Crowns plus they come in different designs for every world! Here are some pictures of them from Paige Moonshade:

4. Finally they let us place items in the water of the Sunken Palace! It has been frustrating everyone and this was the only reason preventing me from getting one. It makes it a lot more convenient then the limited open ground that you could place items in.

Starting Wysteria Say What!

Yea you heard right! I finally got crowns and Started Wysteria!!! I am sooooo excited to finally be able to do the amazing story line and well thought out quests. I can't wait to get the Spiral Cup and finally display it in my epicness Trophy Area XD

Finally! Water Arch!

First Quest!

My Favorite thing about Wysteria... Flying Pigs :P

First Battle

Hasta Lavista Baby XD

Seem a bit Krokotopian or Sultans Palace to you?

Rude are we.

Yup... Keep slamming the really old tree... Nice.

Ooh. Water. How Magical :P

I also recorded a YouTube video my first in a while) and it's all about the Wysteria Schools. Enjoy :)

Halloweens a Comin To The Spiral!

*cue spooky music* Yea buddy! Halloweens a comin to the Spiral!!! Spooky Bob, Jack Hallow, and the whole crew are back to give you a scaring good time this Halloween. With new pets, epic quests and outrageous requests, you'll have a spook of a time :) See I rhymed :P Well to get started. The crews back and Spooky Bob is in the shopping district once again. He's got his spooktacular clothing items and this year he is back with not one, not two, not three but four pets!!! The Black Cat is back as usual but now we have the legendary pet which has been predicted, the Zombie Piggle! We also have the Nightmare, and Ghost Dragon. The Zombie Piggle does not come with a spell but the Nightmare (which was already a hatchable pet) and the Ghost Dragon do! The Nightmare comes with Meteor Strike while the Ghost Dragon comes with Animate (Death Minion Spell). The black cat is 1,500 Crowns, Nightmare is 2,500 Crowns, and the Ghost Dragon is 3,000 Crowns. Here is a picture courtesy of The Diviners Lane.

Zombie Piggle (Found in Crown Shop not Spooky Bob)

I must say I spent a good 1,000+ Crowns on halloween items this year, not on pets (because I got Black Cat a few years ago by accident cause I thought it was gold :P) but on clothing! I got the Skeleton Head hat and the Scary Pumpkin staff :) They look epic with my costume XD I will be wearing it the whole month XD How do you like the new blog layout! I think it's pretty epic XD

Yea that's me :) Epic header right XD I have the cancer symbol in the bottom right corner because it is Cancer Awareness Month. Please do your best to remind people to support the fight against Cancer.

I also hung out with my Twin today, Talon Thunderblade and him and I have the same costume!!! Except his is based off of his normal colors :P Check our epic picture from earlier XD

Ravenwood Radio Episode 50!!!

Congrats Stephen and Fallon!!! Ravenwood Radio just had Episode 50!!! They had soooo many prizes to give out. It was between 49 and 51.... Yea they gave out 50 prizes!!! This was a variety of prizes ranging from 750 Crowns-Epic and Mega Bundles! They had so many contest questions it was hard to keep track! Some of them were really challenging though. Anyways Episode 50 was a blast because Steve and Fallon had so many others hosting with them! They had Ditto, Icy, Friendly and a few others. Believe it or not I actually won a contest!!! I won the twitter contest. It was fairly simple. All I had to do was talk about Episode 50 and use the #RR50 hash-tag. I don't know what I won but I believe it is crowns. Thanks again guys for an amazing episode!!! May you keep broadcasting till episode 120!!!

Wyvern's Hoard Card Packs:

What's the deal with the Wyvern's Hoard packs... They have pros and cons. The pros are you can get teleporters, mounts, and amazing items from it. The cons are the low percentage it has of you getting it. I bought 8 Wyvern's Hoard packs and to my surprise I actually got 3 teleporters! Sadly no Wyvern mount :( I also only got 3 items of clothing and tons of housing items :P I want the Mooshu Well housing item :P Contribute to the cause, gift me Wyvern Hoards. ;)

Yes... My cousin is now playing Wizard101 XD He is from Canada. His Wizard is Mitchell Dragonstaff. He is in the school of Balance. As of today he is level 6. It is pretty sweet to have another family member playing wiz besides Alex :P So far Mitchell has some amazing friends! When he first created his Wizard, I was next to him and then Talon Thunderblade, Mark Stormhunter, and Isaac Stormflame ported and decided to help us level up Mitchell XD It was very generous of them to also add Mitchell.

Nicholas Lionrider and I were talking and thinking about Canadian gift cards that Mitchell could get. The only Canadian cards there are are the Massive Fantasy Palace and Sultans Palace. They are very expensive being priced at $40 a piece. If you ever see Mitchell just say hi :)

Hey guys! So if you remember my post on mine and Talon Thunderblades Twintuition, well Talon made a post about that himself which you can find here. Turns out we both have a profession for drawing! Well in the post Talon included a picture of me. Not a snapshot but a picture. He drew me and it was remarkable! Recently I have also been drawing. Bellow is the picture Talon drew of me and then my drawings:
