Hi all!

A wretched rattling of teeth on Spines heralds the return of the voracious Spine Chompers!

Blue Spine Chomper (Legendary)
5960d4961ddf485e365756c14cdbc290fa9.png

The Blue Spine Chomper lives underground in remote locations, awaiting its prey. As it senses the tremors above the ground, it bursts its head above ground, stripping the victim of its flesh, keeping the spine as a trophy.

Level: 5+


Venom Spine Chomper (Legendary)
18037dabb4dfa8b263c0173973db803a4617.png

This rather vile Chomper is very fast, propelling itself along on to heavily muscled legs. Once it catchs you, it envelopes you with it's poisonous tongue and will swallow you whole before coughing your spine out to add to its collection!

Recommended Level : 56+


Red Spine Chomper (Legendary)
5977eb53927b1fd2e3c53b4848865615576.png

The Red Spine Chomper, like its blue cousin, keeps the spine of it's prey as a trophy. However its mouth acts almost sawmill like in the process, with you being the tree.

Level: 150+


Green Spine Chomper (Legendary)
600ab6e7e9d8a2dd6e31242097de7e2b127.png

The Green Spine Chomper, when idle, appears like any other mushroom. However as its victim approaches, it spouts blazing green fur and proceeds to consume its prey whole. With no remorse.

Level: 275+


Clockwork Spine Chomper (Legendary)
17997c82d6c7bfa77baae57c685f29ca4289.png

The Clockwork Spine Chomper is a creature from an inventors fevered nightmares! Some strange fellow was enraptured with the Spine Chompers as a species and sought to replicate them artificially. This Clockwork Spine Chomper is the result. What the Inventor did not expect was the level of success he would achieve! The Clockwork Spine Chomper powered up and immediately ate its creator! It has created more Clockwork Spines as it has eaten its way through anything it catches, meaning there is a small horde of these mechanical monsters on the loose!

Level: 525+


Dawn Spine Chomper (Legendary)
19914bd2a7e90ba19ba2566330eddbc1c32e.png

Dawn Spine Chomper is a Chomper that decided it liked to hunt first thing in the morning, when prey tends to be a bit fuzzy headed and potentially easy meat. Why its appearance has begun to mimic a cockerel is anyones guess.

Recommended Level : 750+


Sludge Spine Chomper (Legendary)
18016322350689cf30fc349bf2743004df39.png

Yet another of the frankly odd Chomper species, the Sludge Spine Chomper makes its home in swampy areas. One would have thought the thick mass of fur that covers a Spine Chompers body would make Swamps an unlikely place to find such a creature but once again, the Chomper finds a way to put it's surroundings to good use. The sludge in the swamp coats the Chomper making it hard to see as well as making it's thick coat even thicker and considerably more foul. It has learned to use it's disgusting fur to trap any weapons it's prey may be wielding and disarm them before devouring them messily.

Level: 950+


Electro Spine Chomper (Legendary)
2444030d34f2b302906531cd40b4ddd4f08c.png

Electro Spine Chompers are energetic and excitable creatures that are electrically charged from within. The air around the Electro hums with static and hair stands on end. The Electro generates massive amounts of electric lightning that it can spit from its mouth in order to fry potential enemies, some Electro's have even learned direct the lightning using their tongues!

Recommended Level : 1310+


Dark Depths Spine Chomper (Legendary)
3411f2f1f78065c369ceb80431e5451fe471.png

The Dark Depths Spine Chomper is a peculiar new strain of these beasts. It does not have the shaggy pelt of other Chompers, instead having a rough shark-like hide. This allows these aquatic creatures zero drag in water, making these dangerous predators even more fearsome.

Level: 1880+


Feathered Spine Chomper (Legendary)
4059e120f51c3cc74dc4090555c4194ac4db.png

The Feathered Spine Chomper is somewhat like the Dawn Spine Chomper in that it is an avian offshoot of the species. This feathered fiend is flightless but has huge leg muscles and is known to be exceptionally fast. It still has the trademark maw full of fangs and the desire to collect the spines of those it devours!

Level: 2575+


Invader Spine Chomper (Legendary)
4946f78f50f7bedcd664f682a3a7e3c1f276.png

A cabal of Wizards have been peering behind the veil, trying to determine if there are more plains beyond this one and the Shroud. What they saw has unhinged them and somehow manifested as new breeds of Spine Chomper! The Mage Tomonishi brought the Invader Spine Chomper into vile existence!This peculiar Chomper descends on its victims slowly, in a jerking fashion from above.

This new breed is unassailable unless their attacker has a Shiny Silver Coin. Luckily, before all the Mages were devoured, the Cabal made sure these mysterious self replicating coins appear at Brother Giles stall at the Cathedral of Ways!

Level: 3050+


Chomper of Gluttony (Legendary) (NEW)
58674940754d4deb51b2e40573e2a0935a14.png

A new strain of Chomper has appeared! They appear to exemplify one of the seven evil attributes! The Chomper of Gluttony is a vast blob of a creature. It devours all in it's path and is surprisingly fast for such a gigantic lump!

Level: 3425+


Chomper of Greed (Legendary) (NEW)
58709ab40e1da4acd98d0e5254bab05c5785.png

A new strain of Chomper has appeared! They appear to exemplify one of the seven evil attributes! The Chomper of Greed attacks everything it is confronted with but unlike the Glutton, it devours its fill but still kills everything else, as it covets ALL spines and collects vast piles from it's unfortunate victims.

Level: 3800+


Chomper of Sloth (Legendary) (NEW)
587392bae8522f620fa787bb2f6649dd8ddd.png

A new strain of Chomper has appeared! They appear to exemplify one of the seven evil attributes! The Chomper of Sloth is a slow, foul smelling creature. Crawling through the muck of it's haunts, these monsters are stealthy simply because they move so slowly, no on sees them. That's until they surge into motion, with the screams of their victims cut mercifully sort. After the meal, the Chomper returns to it's sloth-like posture.

Level: 4175+


This event will be available until 16:00 hours Server time on Monday the 16th of September.

Enjoy!

Hi all,

A renewed swarm of the horrifying Spine Chompers are invading the Realms! Who can stop them? Can you?

Horned Spine Chomper (Legendary)
1802934f1a87a834da8f26eadee2cc7aa881.png

Horned Spine Chomper is quite aggressive, even by Spine Chomper standards. The Beast simply charges, running over as much prey as possible before returning to beat anything still conscious silly before devouring everything that can't escape!

Recommended Level : 10+


Dark Spine Chomper (Legendary)
6014f955ae81630968bf8335ff0a062bfc5.png

The Dark Spine Chomper is a biological mystery. In legend, it is told that it developed additional heads to satisfy its need for more spines, so it could process its victims faster.

Level: 75+


Yellow Spine Chomper (Legendary)
603fe9efd50cb69ba099d1e1b17ee61acfa.png

After many years of evolutions, the Yellow Spine Chomper has taken to the skies, swooping down on unexpecting victims, bringing agonising death from above.

Level: 225+


Octo Spine Chomper (Legendary)
6022a8119447d84c54d41f7fa40b3e144bf.png

The Octo Spine Chomper uses its multiple tendrils to ensnare its prey and drag it kicking and screaming into its toothy maw.

Level: 350+


Dusk Spine Chomper (Legendary)
1990c651f8e383404a8fa32ff6f9a3fa80f0.png

The Dusk Spine Chomper is a new nocturnal variant of these unusual predators. Covered in shorter, courser hair than most Chompers, it is readily identifiable by it's enormous ears, which it uses to hunt in the darkness.

Recommended Level : 575+


Fire Fur Spine Chomper (Legendary)
18000c4093e41bcb72618fb83ab06d6e50be.png

The Fire Fur Spine Chomper is yet another peculiar off-shoot of this very strange creature. This particular specimen appears to be an elemental of sorts or possibly magical in origin. The creature fur is as normal as most usually, however, when it closes with its prey it's fur turns into pure flame, giving off some pretty intense heat. The Chomper itself does not notice any heat, having discovered the effect it's personal conflagration can have on others resulting in a Chomper that actually likes to cook it's prey before consuming them!

Level: 800+


Solar Spine Chomper (Legendary)
1993fed8b78f1b10361bb1c5e9a8d3dfbb20.png

The Solar Spine Chomper is a very peculiar breed of an already peculiar species. It is somewhat related to the Fire Fur Chomper in that its fur can burst into flame but instead of charging its prey, the solar leads its prey to an ambush point with its lit tail. Once in a place it is happy with, it draws it prey as close as it can. Once achieved, the Solar Spine Chomper explodes, cooking its prey where it stands!

Recommended Level : 1000+


Tentacle Spine Chomper (Legendary)
2445dc5b7d9c1f05d252c3c909c8a2971291.png

Tentacle Spine Chompers diverged from the main family tree of Spine Chompers long ago, leaving the land for the seas. However, they are unable to swim, their stubby legs never adapting to life in water. However they adapted to this flaw and quickly evolved many grasping tentacles that they use to drag prey passing by into their toothed maws.

Recommended Level : 1500+


Crystalline Spine Chomper (Legendary)
34128d1e14d424677130695c3c64db5ca2df.png

The Crystalline Spine Chomper has taken a very different evolutionary path than most of it's kind. This creature is comprised completely of razor sharp crystal. How it survives and why it continues to have an appetite for flesh and bone (minus the spine) is anyones guess!

Level: 2120+


Canid Spine Chomper (Legendary)
4060979ddda1d9ad1b5922813a105393042b.png

The Canid Spine Chomper is believed to be the first Chomper species that is a quadruped! It appears to resemble a dog of some (horrible, horrible) type. As with most Chompers, this breed sports the usual shaggy hair and vast mouth filled with fangs. This mouth shape is altered on the Canid however as, like a dog, it has a muzzle! This fast, bounding nightmare has also changed it's hunting methods due to the muzzle. The Chompers sense of smell is second to none!

Level: 2700+


Pakku Spine Chomper (Legendary)
4947a3cfea27ce02b1c2b174ddff4616f6c7.png

A cabal of Wizards have been peering behind the veil, trying to determine if there are more plains beyond this one and the Shroud. What they saw has unhinged them and somehow manifested as new breeds of Spine Chomper!

The Pakku Spine Chomper has manifested due to the works of the Mage Torutani, this terrifying beast floats above the ground and is most at home in mazes. Strangely, it appears to be afraid of ghosts and, most surprisingly of all, enjoys the occasional fruit alongside it's fleshy victims!

This new breed is unassailable unless their attacker has a Shiny Silver Coin. Luckily, before all the Mages were devoured, the Cabal made sure these mysterious self replicating coins appear at Brother Giles stall at the Cathedral of Ways!

Level: 3175+


Chomper of Lust (Legendary) (NEW)
586885bce625dbf590b5d8b3864d9a2ecd64.png

A new strain of Chomper has appeared! They appear to exemplify one of the seven evil attributes! The Chomper of Lust is best described as a form of ambush hunter. It acts in a friendly manner, smiling with it's full lips and drawing the innocent and naive towards it. Once it's prey is in range, the lips part, revealing a nightmarish maw as multiple slimy tentacle-like tongues shoot out, wrapping around it's meal, writhing over them as it slowly draws them to their doom!

Level: 3550+


Chomper of Wrath (Legendary) (NEW)
58713c0821b4fa7fff9c1e25d42d8ad893a5.png

A new strain of Chomper has appeared! They appear to exemplify one of the seven evil attributes! The Chomper of Wrath lives in a constant state of unquenchable rage. It roars into combat with anything it sees, and in it's rage, even devours the spines of it's victims. This sends it into further depths of apoplectic wrath.

Level: 3925+


This event will be available until 16:00 hours Server time on Thursday the 19th of September.

Enjoy!

Glad to see new spine sets, but I thought spine sets typically focused on Attack and Damage stats? Weird seeing defense armor sets.

With crystalline being popular for the arena, it kinda makes sense to have things focusing one defense/armor, no?

Not really, unless the "arena items don't degrade" scenario has changed...

Spine is designed to break - if it's "only" of use in the arena, it'll never break (unless the above rule HAS changed ..)

Eddie Izzard : The National Rifle Association say that guns don't kill people, people do. But I think the gun helps, you know ? I think it helps. I think just standing there going "BANG" - that's not going to kill too many people, is it ?

 

I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but it seems that everything I eat lately turns to poo ...

Hi all!

With the second wave of Chompers driven off, you'd hoped for a respite. No such luck! A third wave of the dangerous Chompers have swarmed forth from the dark places!

Undead Spine Chomper (Legendary)
6256a61a29be356629a7ffc0a4fd994f4ab.png

The Undead Spine Chomper was once the most vicious living spine chomper in known existance. Since its departure due to lack of fresh spines, its now the most vicious non-living spine chompter in known existance.

Level: 35+


Berserker Spine Chomper (Legendary)
1804650f9200d9f2dabca3a469354f9c4051.png

The Berserker Spine Chomper lives up to its name! It rushes into any fight, pounding it's prey (and anything else that's close) and racking them with the barbs on its arms. Even once all nearby prey is dead, it still barely calms down, poundoing most of it's food to paste before it can eat it. This just tends to make it more berserk though.

Recommended Level : 122+


Astral Spine Chomper (Legendary)
180561b792c07e7d0b6c5e59328afb60cdc5.png

The Astral Spine Chomper is a bit of a nightmare, even by other Chomper standards. It is believed that it has eaten all the beings in its reality and is tearing into this one in search of more prey which it feeds into its other-worldly maw!

Recommended Level : 253+


Spine Chomper of Misfortune (Legendary)
18065159fbb3bc4ee6f4356acef642de6fa7.png

The Spine Chomper of Misfortune is a curious addition to an already odd menagerie. This one seems to chase its prey and coil up and many as possible in its tendrils. It then breaths its Breath of Misfortune upon all its captured prey, which sends them to sleep. Once asleep, the Chomper eats the victims swiftly and starts prowling again!

Recommended Level : 400+


Polar Spine Chomper (Legendary)
1206911c56610625328b80bd625726325253.png

Being an arctic predator, prey is hard to come by for the Polar Spine Chomper. It will charge its new prey as a great ball of camouflaged fur with gaping maw and rapidly freezing drool. As it feverishly devours it's prey, it takes great care not to damage the spine of its latest victim, which the Polar Spine Chomper, like the rest of its vicious kin, will keep in an ever growing trophy collection.

Level: 650+


Lunar Spine Chomper (Legendary)
199275b161dd8c54b1427a266a1fa940890e.png

The Lunar Spine Chomper is another night time predator. This one is very fast and rather small. It darts around and confuses it's prey with its white pelt before closing in for the kill!

Recommended Level : 875+


Celestial Spine Chomper (Legendary)
19944f9c254911a986b3491c5d438fb596e5.png

The Celestial Spine Chomper is simply a mystery. No-one knows where it comes from, only that it tends to hurl to the earth with extreme speed, landing on its prey and messily devouring them. Some believe it is sent by a God that is displeased but what God would use such a cute ball of mayhem for a weapon?

Recommended Level : 1100+


Corpulent Spine Chomper (Legendary)
3410cba9163d7bf9d8b65bd3f406ad694dfe.png

The Corpulent Spine Chomper is a vast, slobbering beast. For all it's gargantuan bulk, this creature is still an adept hunter. It'd have to be to get to that size!

Level: 1650+


Quilled Spine Chomper (Legendary)
4058568216cbadd719e3a2fa958a92fdaed2.png

The Quilled Spine Chomper is an odd Chomper (aren't they all?). You'd never believe that a Chomper would need any kind of defenses, but this strange Chomper has evolved just that. It's fur is shorter but rising from it's back is a fairly majestic crop of spine, much like a porcupine. That is, if a porcupine was bipedal and had a vast maw full of teeth that wanted to eat you up, leaving the spine.

Level: 2350+


Kjubert Spine Chomper (Legendary)
49457c403492c4212f4e9d77afcd120b7819.png

A cabal of Wizards have been peering behind the veil, trying to determine if there are more plains beyond this one and the Shroud. What they saw has unhinged them and somehow manifested as new breeds of Spine Chomper!

The Kjubert Spine Chomper, brought into being by the mage Davilee, has been seen trying to turn stone tiles into the same colour. No one knows why this is but one investigates any more as this beast lunges at them, making peculiar noises, before messily devouring them.

This new breed is unassailable unless their attacker has a Shiny Silver Coin. Luckily, before all the Mages were devoured, the Cabal made sure these mysterious self replicating coins appear at Brother Giles stall at the Cathedral of Ways!

Level: 2925+


Donki Spine Chomper (Legendary)
4948b4315574a646f223154f79dfc95844f5.png

A cabal of Wizards have been peering behind the veil, trying to determine if there are more plains beyond this one and the Shroud. What they saw has unhinged them and somehow manifested as new breeds of Spine Chomper!

The Donki Spine Chomper was manifested by the genius Wizard, Shigemoto. This particular type of Chomper takes offense when it sees towers, smashing them and throwing great barrels and anyone who tries to climb the tower to get them!

This new breed is unassailable unless their attacker has a Shiny Silver Coin. Luckily, before all the Mages were devoured, the Cabal made sure these mysterious self replicating coins appear at Brother Giles stall at the Cathedral of Ways!

Level: 3300+


Chomper of Pride (Legendary) (NEW)
5869fe5f1cd72851de83fb3d8346117b9ba7.png

A new strain of Chomper has appeared! They appear to exemplify one of the seven evil attributes! Chomper of Pride take the collecting of spines that all Chompers have and elevates this trait by proudly displaying the collection for all to see!

Level: 3675+


Chomper of Envy (Legendary) (NEW)
5872ce58b705423707a48c361d7a8cbd5831.png

A new strain of Chomper has appeared! They appear to exemplify one of the seven evil attributes! The Chomper of Envy works itself into such a frenzy of covetous behaviour that it actually does very little. It ends up tying itself in knots over wanting everything everyone else has, ESPECIALLY spines!

Level: 4050+


This event will be available until 17:00 hours Server time on Monday the 23rd of September.

Enjoy!

It's good punch, you should definitely have some. Tastes red, and more than a little boozy.

Hi there everyone.

The combined efforts of the Realms heroes have seen the vile Spine Chompers driven back into the darkness from which they emerged. They will return!

We hope you enjoyed this event!
