The Spectral event was implemented by Zorg on Friday October 23rd 2009. It lasts from midnight on Friday to midnight on Sunday, server time. You will know when the event has started, as the beginning and end of the event is announced by System on Side Chat.
There are 3 Spectral Items, and each week a single Spectral Item will spawn and be given to a random un-injured avatar who has space in their inventory to carry it. There are two ways to gain an item when the event is going on:
1) Randomly picked to get it from the abyss, or
2) Kill the current carrier and earn a banner when doing so.

Character Designs!
When you get the Spectral Item you are given a nice purple glow for your background. If you have a -1 or less you become a purple frog as your character Design. If your account has been shrubbed by a member of Staff and receives the Spectral Item, by defeating a player in self defence, then your shrub is given the purple glow background.

Spectral FaQ!
- o How do they work?
- Defeat the person carrying the spectral item and you get it until someone defeats you, this process continues until it despawns on the Sunday night.
- You cannot sell, drop or trade the spectral item. Non-avatars can steal it but they will not be able to equip it. You will never be told who is carrying it but it will be visible upon viewing the carriers profile, both by the purple aura around their character and a small note above their equipped items.
- o What if my inventory is full?
- If you defeat the spectral item carrier and do not have space in your inventory to carry the spectral item then it will 'Phase Shift to the Abyss'. From the Abyss it will be handed to a random un-injured avatar who has space to carry it. If none are found it will wait there and keep trying to find somebody every minute.
- o How do I know what's going on?
- The start and end of the spectral item week-end event will be announced by System on side chat along with any time the weapon shifts randomly or goes to wait in the abyss. It will never be said who gets the item though, so you'll need to find the carrier yourself.
- o How do i know which item has appeared?
- In your inventory it will display a message (Shown in the Screen Shot to the right). You Click on [Details] and this will take you to another page with an image displayed containing the current item.
