Festive Fenrir

Fenrir will be prowling the following areas throughout the event. Trading specific items to him will grant special effects and/or items...and perhaps something a little special if you trade him some gil!

Speak to the one at the very end of the line to learn more.

NPC: Festive Fenrir

Areas: West Ronfaure / East Ronfaure / La Theine Plateau / Valkurm Dunes / Jugner Forest / Batallia Downs / North Gustaberg / South Gustaberg / Konschtat Highlands / Passhow Marshlands / Rolanberry Fields / Beaucedine Glacier / Western Altepa Desert / Eastern Altepa Desert / West Sarutabaruta / East Sarutabaruta / Tahrongi Canyon / Buburimu Peninsula / Meriphataud Mountains / Sauromugue Champaign / The Sanctuary of Zi'Tah / Yuhtunga Jungle / Yhoator Jungle / Qufim Island / Xarcabard

Three Tarutaru Summoners are riding Fenrirs. The first is wearing the Evoker's Attire Set, the second the Summoner's Attire Set, and the third the Caller's Attire Set.

  • Trading items to the lead Festive Fenrir can result in receiving a 60 second duration Enthunder cast on yourself or receiving a Cait Sith Carving or Galette des Rois food item.
  • Trading gil to the last Festive Fenrir will result in receiving a New Year's Pouch signed with your name. The pouch contains how much gil you traded.
    • You can use your New Year's Pouch to check how much gil is in it, but it won't be used or give you the gil.
    • You have to trade it to another player for them to be able to use it and get the gil.

Event Stalls

The moogles in the following locations will be selling Dream Hats and Snowman Caps, as well as other Starlight Celebration-themed items throughout the event.

Dream Hat +1 icon.png Dream Hat +1

You may obtain a Dream Hat +1Dream Hat +1 description.png from your moogle if you set San d'Orian Tree, Bastokan Tree, and Windurstian Tree in your Mog House layout.

This must be done from the Mog Safe 1 and not 2.

After the next conquest tally your moogle will reward you with the hat. If it does not then you must remove any conflicting items such as the Galley Kitchen first, and then wait for the next tally.

Synthesizing an ordinary Snowman Cap icon.png Snowman Cap together with "something snowy" (Brilliant Snow icon.png Brilliant Snow) will produce a Frosty Cap icon.png Frosty Cap.

Ake-Ome Spirit

Northern San d'Oria (L-8) / Port Bastok (K-12) / Port Windurst (M-4)

  • Speaking to Ake or Ome again when already in possession of the Ake-Ome Spirit places a New Year Mandragora costume on your character.

Bring cheer to those in need!

The moogles have cleverly hidden seven types of Tenshodo trading cards across the land and challenged the Goblins to find them. But the cunning Goblins, determined to come out on top in the contest, have taken to riding chocobos, and that simply isn't fair, kupo!

Southern San d'Oria / Northern San d'Oria

Bastok Markets / Bastok Mines

Windurst Waters (north side) / Windurst Woods

Trading cards can occasionally be found by examining overturned soil in the following locations. Get there before the goblins beat you to it!

West Ronfaure / La Theine Plateau / Jugner Forest / Batallia Downs / South Gustaberg / Konschtat Highlands / Pashhow Marshlands / Rolanberry Fields / East Sarutabaruta / Tahrongi Canyon / Meriphataud Mountains / Sauromugue Champaign.

The odds of receiving trading cards increases with the more people you have in your party. Team up with other adventurers to increase your odds of success!
