An adventurer is most at home when confronted with an unexplored dungeon. So, this week, we present one that is dark, mysterious, loaded with rewards and offering a surprise at every turn. Would an adventurer expect any less? But, in this sulphurous, highly flammable cave network, something more hazardous stirs. A mysterious entity lies in wait; urging you forward; hungry for revenge and fire. A foe such as this can’t be faced in a straight-up fight, so it’s only with ingenuity, guile and a heart of flame that you’ll come away unburned.

You’re not alone, though. Seven firemakers have heard that hidden knowledge – arcane secrets of firemaking – lie in the cave system, and they wish you to lead the way through the dimly lit depths. As their leader, your choices will determine whether they live or die. So, will you leave the caverns with a full complement of firemakers, or will you let death thin their ranks?

Bring light to the dungeon complex and you will reveal some of firemaking’s oldest and most illuminating secrets. Successful adventurers will gain XP; will be able to participate in two new circus events; and will have access to a new firemaking training method. There are also four new blazing pets to call your own.

In other news:

The Firemaker’s Curse is a choice-based quest, and your choices determine who lives or dies. While there is a path through the quest where (almost) nobody dies, any incorrect choices will not adversely affect your game experience or reward. With this in mind, we would recommend that you do not use a walkthrough.

This week’s quest features Sera - the character voted for by you in our recent guaranteed content poll!

If you haven’t already, be sure to take a look at our latest Lores & Histories story: Twice Burnt, to read up on the back-story of today’s quest.

Leaving a Flash Powder Factory game more than two minutes early will now incur a penalty of up to 50%. Running out of catalyst powder will no longer end a game; just prevent the player from making flash powder. Finally, being trapped in a corridor for too long will no longer end the game; just teleport the player to a random corner of the arena.

RuneScape has been recognised as Best Browser Game and Game of the Year in Massively.com’s First Annual Frindie Awards! Needless to say, we’re hugely happy with this achievement and proud to receive such high praise.

RuneScape was commended for its accessibility, the sheer volume and variety of content available, and the frequency of its updates, as well as for the decisive blow struck against bots last year. It’s truly awesome to see that, even at 11 years old and with the competition fiercer than ever, RuneScape still stands out from the crowd.

Check out the full article here.

Last year was an epic one, with the introduction of customisable Clan Citadels, our first fully-voiced quest in One Piercing Note, and Bot Nuke Day, and we’ve got a lot to live up to in 2012. With all the awesome content we have planned for the upcoming weeks and months, you can be sure we’ll be doing just that.

That’s it; it’s over for another year. As we dive into 2012, it’s down with the decorations and turkey sandwiches in the bin as we wave good bye to Christmas for another year. Aww.

Well, almost. Before we do that, there are just a few festive bits that still need wrapping up.

Christmas Caption Competition

After an unprecedented number of entrants (and an equally unprecedented amount of collective groans from the judges), Letajera took the honours for their word skills. See the caption in its full glory over on the competition thread.

Festive Photo Competition

This competition could have been re-branded as “The RuneScape Pets in Christmas Costumes Competition,” as it appears that, to our wonderful community, nothing says Christmas better than an annoyed cat in a santa hat. We’ve not been able to choose a winner yet, so have put it to our Facebook community to make the decision for us. Make your choice from the shortlist by heading to our Facebook page today!

Mod Sabre’s New Year’s Eve Challenge

This New Year’s Eve, Mod Sabre was challenged with seeing in the new year in each and every time zone on the planet. You can check out whether he was victorious or failed like a big baby on the dedicated thread. You can also find photo evidence on our Facebook page. Poor Sabre.

Thanks to everyone who took part this Christmas and hey, in 355 sleeps time we get to celebrate it all over again! Yay!

As the season of good will approaches, it would appear that no one has told Mod Timbo.

Winter is set to hit Clan Battlefields and, to celebrate, Timbo has created a seasonal battlefield sure to test even the inquisitive of present hunters. Don’t worry, though; he’s not a complete scrooge. He’s left presents for those victorious warriors prepared to fight for them. What a guy.

Timbo’s winter thunderland won’t be there for long so tool up, put on your best fighting trousers and get to your nearest citadel before it melts away!

Details on how to access Timbo’s Christmas carnage can be found on the main battlefield thread.

If Timbo has inspired you to create your own festive fight-a-thon, show us what you’ve made by sending your screenshots to us.

Merry Christmas!

A new downloadable wallpaper with the iconic green dragon is now available to celebrate the forthcoming return of the Wilderness. Why not head over to our downloads section and get ready for the fight of your life!

We’ve also added a couple of guides about the Wilderness and free trade to the Game Guide, for those players who are unfamiliar with them.

Free trade and the Wilderness are almost here and I’m sure you’re all sharpening your swords, crafting your runes and starving your familiar to make it extra specially vicious. With bands of adventurers preparing to reclaim the Wilderness, it’s time to force the previous tenants out to make way for a new breed of danger.

The revenants have long been a thorn in the side of Wilderness warriors, with their incorporeal gloating and sneaky use of all three combat mechanics. Well no longer! This weekend we will be organising raids into the heart of the Wilderness, to seek out and destroy this spectral menace once and for all!

We’re calling on you to help us in this task in what will be your last chance to kick nine shades of ectoplasm out of the revenants. No doubt, after such an onslaught, they’ll be seeking new pastures somewhere in Gielinor…

If you’d like to be a part of RuneScape history and show the world that you helped make a difference, then join us in the events forums and help us banish the revenants from the Wilderness forever!

According to what we know about January’s updates, the only thing that we’re looking forward to now is the Hati wolf (hopefully we should see it by Tuesday). Why do you think that guy’s glowing in the second pic? Is it because he’s wearing the combat XP doubling gloves dropped by the Hati wolf?

In other news, Jagex has promised to reveal some more information next Monday about the upcoming free-trade and wilderness PKing updates.

The upcoming free-trade and Wilderness PvP changes are coming February 1st.

Thank you to all those of you who took part in the historic RuneScape Referendum, which ended on Friday. We received an incredible 1.2 million votes, with a united 91% of you voting for the restoration of free trade and the Wilderness. We have heard your call and will be restoring these much loved features to RuneScape on Tuesday 1st February.

The clock is ticking and you have just two weeks to get ready for this monumental update. To help you prepare, we will be releasing a series of guides, FAQs and expert advice about the Wilderness and free trade, so that players both old and new can get ready for this epic release.

Now it is up to you to prepare for battle, level your account, gear up your armour and equip yourself for the ultimate Wilderness experience.

There is just one question left unanswered: are you ready?
