Aquila Housing Items Guide

Aquila is a super cool world/dungeon zone. It's a shame there isn't a housing vendor or furniture pack. The best we wizards can do is visit Aquila and search for some hidden items. Some of the items are auctionable and sell for a good amount of gold. Please look closely at each map to locate the green arrow, which indicates the exact location of each item.

Garden of Hesperides

Olympian Herb

                         



The Olympian Herb can be found near Khalkos Coppersmith opposite to the Mount Olympus dungeon. 

Mount Olympus

Banner of Apollo








The Banner of Apollo can be found in the Sun Room where you defeat Apollo Bright One. It is located near the entrance to the room.

Grand Statue of Zeus



The Grand Statue of Zeus can be found directly in front of the Sky Balcony, when you defeat the guards on your way to Ares. It is so big and massive that you can't miss it.

Atlantea

Atlantea Grand Monument










The Atlantea Grand Monument can be found right when you walk in to Atlantea, near Hermes. 

Atlantean Arch




     



The Atlantean Arch can be found to the left in Akheilo's Sanctum.

Nine Fathoms Pedestal



The Nine Fathoms Pedestal can be found to the far back right in Teles' Sanctum.

Tartarus

Underworld Brazier



The Underworld Brazier can be found near the broken statue by the River of Spirits. Be careful of the Bronze Hoplites as they can easily pull you into battle.

Ember Stone of Tartarus




The Ember Stone of Tartarus can also be found near the River of Spirits.

Hades the Unseen Mural



 The Hades the Unseen Mural can be found in the place where you battle Hades, I decided to use a picture over the map because it's a lot more accurate. 

I hope you enjoyed this guide! Good luck on getting these items.

Frostcaller's Polar Bear Party


Frostcaller throws amazing parties. Edward Lifegem threw an amazing party earlier this year. But what happens when two amazing party-throwers team up? Frostcaller held an amazing International Polar Bear Day party in his Polarian Shipwreck with the help of Edward! So many wizards showed up, even a few "famous" wizards! 

Paige Moonshade, Frostcaller (Hidden by a random wizard) and I
Paige Moonshade came and was flocked by MANY wizards! Her outfit was so cool! Unfortunately my Polar Bear is in the way... oops. I tried to get a picture with Edward Wintergem, but he ran off to never be found again...


We were able to get a group picture... Look how many Polar Bears there were! This was a super fun picture to take.

My outfit changed often.... haha

Some amazing duelists from around the spiral battled their hearts out! There was some amazing battles going down. I personally enjoyed the viking statues.



Frostcaller's house was amazing! It was so gorgeous both inside and out! Going inside the house felt like going to a ball! 

I had an amazing time at Frostcaller's and Edward Lifegem's party! Amazing job planning and carrying out the party. Thank you for being amazing Community Leaders and giving everyone a fun time!

Don't forget the upcoming Easter Bunny Run held by Edward Lifegem, especially if you missed this! It's gonna be super fun!

What was your favorite part of the party? Share below!

Thanks again Frostcaller and Edward Lifegem!

Love Letters from Malistaire Drake


Malistaire Drake has a well-known reputation for being evil and borderline insane. But way before his campaign to awaken the Dragon Titan, Malistaire Drake was just your average Death student with a love worth dying for. Check out these letters he wrote to the love of his life, Sylvia. Maybe your opinion will change... a little.

25 years ago...

My Dearest Sylvia,
   It has been so long since I've seen you. I cannot simply bear your absence! Your beauty astounds me, Sylvia! My life is complete with you! Please privilege me with your presence on Friday! I would love to take you to my favorite restaurant in Marleybone. 
With Love,
Malistaire


My lovely Malistaire,
It has been too long since I've seen you! Oh, Mali! Your words give me so much happiness. I would love to accompany you in Marleybone. I have never met a Death wizard as happy and respectful as you! You have become the a huge part of me.

Until Friday,
Sylvia


20 years ago...

My Dear, 
   Today I saw the sunrise. Today I watched a flower in bloom. These things were beautiful, yet their beauty met no match to yours. There is nothing in this world that I love more than you. 

Love,
Malistaire

Sweet Malistaire,
No one, not a single person, has ever amazed me so much as you. Your words leave me with great joy! You have succeeded where I have failed. You complete me like death and life going hand in hand.

Sylvia

10 years ago...

Sylvia,
You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me. You were the reason I got up every day. You put the smile on my face. You showed me that life had more meaning than inevitable death. And now the one thing that held so much meaning in my life has been torn away from me. I know you'll never read this...
Your loving husband,
Malistaire

Top 5 Rarest Items

Wizard101 has a lot of cool things to grab. Whether it's a wand, mount, housing item, or pet, there just never seems to be enough of them. They always seem to look cool or give amazing stats! I have comprised a list of what I think is the most rarest, based solely on my observations, and in no particular order.

1. Valor



The Valor Sword was a promotional wand given to wizards in 2009. This beautiful life sword has long since been retired. I've never seen anyone with Valor. It's undoubtedly one of the rarest items in the Spiral.

2. Pioneer Dragon Mount


The Pioneer Dragon mount was a gift for players who created an account before September 2nd, 2008. Not many people made an account before the official launch. I've probably seen 2 or 3 in game. I've seen a lot of it's relative, the Frontier Dragon Mount. 

3. Sheep Pet


The Sheep pet IS the most rare pet in the Spiral. Given to KingsIsle employees and some people as a rare gift, this pet CANNOT  be received from a hatch. You'll receive your pet or a Goat Monk pet from the hatch. 

4. Spider Altar and Spider Table


The Spider Altar and Spider Table were originally given out as prizes in 2012. Today, they are unobtainable. These furniture pieces are very, very unique and are very cool to put in your house. I am fortunate to own the Spider Altar. 

5. Lifebane Treasure Card


The Lifebane Treasure Card dispelled all incoming life spells. It has been retired, and can only be obtained via trade. Not many are left, so when the final treasure card has been cast... the spell is no longer in existence. This treasure card is so sought-after that Wizard101 Central members pay thousands of forum gold for the trade. If you have a Lifebane treasure card, don't use it! Save it, sell it, or trade it!

If you possess any of these items, congratulations! You have some extremely rare items! Have fun showing off your awesomeness.

What do you think are the rarest items in the Spiral? Let me know in the comments! I look forward to seeing your ideas. :)
