Daily Assignments: Pekrons and Pekuliarities
As you might know by now, you can now do a daily quest to get rewards: gold, arena tickets, crowns and mystery items, e.g. a housing item, a jewel, or a 7 day mount. Whether these prizes are worth your time depends entirely on you. I kind of like them for nostalgic reasons: it’s fun to visit old places and see old enemies. I wouldn’t mind if, some day, these quests would also make you redo certain instances. So far, they don’t: your assignment is either a place to visit, or a mob to kill.
The 12th day is special, as it gives you a quest related to Pekrons and Pekuliarities. If you’re not someone who reads the lore, you’re missing out! So far, only the three first times you do the daily assignment cycle result in an exclamation point quest. After that, the day just gives you a bit of gold.
Here’s the full quest dialog for all three Pekrons and Pekuliarities quests:
TLDR?
Let’s skip all the dialog and just come to the point, shall we! Here’s what the dialog reveals:
The Gravulum Order
- This is a group that investigates Pekuliarities
- Currently the only members we know are Aegon Statz and Jordan Malniz
Aegon Statz
- He’s a member of the Gravulum Order, a group that investigates Pekuliarities
- His name is a reference to Ghostbusters: his first name (Aegon) comes from Egon Spengler and his last name (Statz) from Ray Stantz.
- He believes the end of the Spiral is near. However, he still occasionally doubts if Pekuliarities really exist
- He thinks he knows the reason why some areas have a higher concentration of Pekrons, but doesn’t want to tell us yet
Jordyn Malniz
- Her name is a reference to Janine Melnitz, the receptionist from Ghostbusters
- In Wizard101 she’s a Necromancer
- She’s accustomed to experimenting with the dark arts
- Her lab is in Marleybone
- She quits the Gravulum Order after getting possessed by a Pekuliarity
Pekuliarities and Pekrons
Pekrons possibly is a reference to Ghostbusters as well (PKE = psychokinetic energy)
- Pekuliarities are “instances of pure impossibility”, created when there is a high concentration of Pekrons
- Pekrons are invisible micromagic particles that exist and dont exist at the same time
- The number of Pekrons is increasing all across the Spiral
- Air in different parts of the Spiral can have high or low concentrations of Pekrons, or there might not be any Pekrons at all
- Bark (cursed with shadow magic) from Moros the Doom Tree seems to counter the impossible possibility
The Gravulum Badge
- It gives Aegon the chance to remotely get a reading on the concentration of Pekrons in an area or mob
- The reading will result in different colors: so far we’ve had yellow, orange, red, green and purple
- We don’t know if the color is significant, but purple seems to be the worst
What could this all mean?
Where is this going to lead us?
