Night of Lost Souls
"On Halloween, the Night of Lost Souls will descend on the Exiled Lands. The sky will darken as perpetual dusk falls upon the landscape, casting it in black shadows and blue light, tearing at the boundaries which separate the world of the living from the realms of the dead. The clouds will part. A new face will appear upon the moon's surface. It is the face of death, keeping watch over whatever might stir on the ground below.

''During the Night of Lost Souls, stones will fall from the sky in multitudes, striking the earth in a flurry of colored smoke and debris. Adventurous exiles break open these stones with whatever tool they have available. Inside, they will find a plethora of crafting ingredients, both rare and common, doled out at random by the spirits lingering inside the stones, anything from Plant Fiber and Meat to Volatile Glands, Arrows and Steelfire. It all depends on the spirit's goodwill.

''Inside the fallen stones you will also discover the Potion of Lost Souls, a special brew only available on this hallowed night. Imbibing the Potion will grant you certain benefits at random. Drink one and see what happens, but don't drink too many or your body will suffer the consequences. Don't say we didn't warn you.

''After the Night of Lost Souls has passed, the sun will once again rise on the Exiled Lands. The restless spirits will once again be calm, yet their gifts will remain with those who received them."

Server Settings
The Halloween event will be enabled by default once the Event goes live and you can use commands to control the Halloween meteor spawn timer and meteor decay timer. These don't have a dedicated UI so you will have to either use the ServerSettings.ini file or the in game console command line: (For command line, see Set Server Setting on Admin commands.)
