Challenge of the Gods: Odin has descended on midgard to issue a challenge to those who would label themselves as heroes. He brings with him Thor, Loki and Freyja. You'll find him in Prontera.

Pandelina: Happy as ever, the lovely Pandelina can also be found in Prontera, she carries a myriad of backpacks that she will part with... for a price! She offers Freebie, 4M Backpack Lottery, 12M Double-Backpack Lottery and the option to craft a Rainbowring Backpack. That's not all, she also brings a very special gift for you guys, rings forged especially to celebrate heRO's decennial!
