LiLBear Takes the 12,500 SC Pot
@LiLBear won 12,500 SC in this week's draw.
50 tickets were in the basket. The next draw is already open at The Drift Weekly Draw.
@Capricious_Fairy won 10,900 SC in the October 2026 Last Chance draw.
The winning ticket came from 178 non-winning weekly tickets. Every losing ticket gets another chance next month at The Drift Weekly Draw.
Villains Have Taken Over Town
Most of the town has dressed up as villains, each in a costume of their own (Scooter's the one with the rocket). You'll spot them on portraits all over the game, around every clubhouse and in the crowd at the Lanternsong venue, where a day pass from the Ticket Booth walks you right in.
The costumes are gone after Friday, November 6, at 11:59 p.m. Eastern, so this is the week for a selfie. Walk up to someone in costume at a clubhouse or in the venue crowd and pick Selfie. Everyone gets one a day, and SensiFans get two.

5 Familiar Discoveries in Focus
Ready to meet, thanks to the players who discovered them.
#Emberdapple Roost
Born of flame and shadow, this small avian familiar walks on the ground more than it flies, its wingless build carrying warm ember-spotted fur instead of feathers.
Discovered by @georgiakait201.
#Duskfang Sprig
Born of a shadow-wolf's howl and a fruit that grew fangs, this quiet canine pads along fencelines with a faint red glow behind its eyes.
Discovered by @Kiksadi.
#Cinderhorn Bun
Born of slag and moss, this warm little rabbit-familiar carries a smooth coat the color of cooled embers and two small smoldering horns that never quite stop glowing.
Discovered by @Kiksadi.
#Loamveil Hopling
Born from a lineage of spooky, earthy bunnies, this soft-eared hopper carries bone-pale spots across a mossy coat and a faint shadow that trails just behind its paws.
Discovered by @Greenrabbit36.
#Emberringtail
Born from a chattering coatie and a fawn-winged wanderer, this little mammal traded butterfly wings for a warm ember glow that flickers along its ringed tail.
Discovered by @georgiakait201.
Meet the Emberkit Vale
Born of fox-quick mischief and pony-warm embers, this little canine pads through volcanic meadows on stumbling paws, its solid rust coat glowing faintly like banked coals. Though it carries the ghost of stripes and the shadow of horns, it never grew either—just a soft, warm heart that adores company.
#Emberkit Vale was first discovered by @georgiakait201.
Long sightlines over Aegis, Plus 6 More Forecasts
Today's outlook across Veloris.
Long sightlines over Aegis
The cape is unusually clear from the request board to the lighthouse rail.
Steady rain over Emberhearth
A patient island rain is soaking the terraces, bazaar roofs, and garden paths.
Powder snow across Baltinor
Fine dry snow is crossing the expedition camp and gathering against the old runes.
Rain over the harbor
A soft rain is dimpling the pond and the mangrove channels and running off the cliff stairs.
Rain through the canopy
A gentle rain is filtering through the leaves and pattering on the mossy forest floor.
Electric haze around the citadel
A harmless blue haze is gathering where the spire's field meets the evening air.
A cloudbank at garden height
A soft bank of cloud is passing the lower bridges and mossy aqueducts.
That's our morning edition. Take care of each other, and leave a little room for a surprise.
