This event is highly focused on exploring and community interaction.
The explore encounters exclusive to this month can be found in all biomes.
Your lion's karma and level, as well as the biome you explore in, do not matter for this event.

In December, the community is working to unlock three tiers of two different bars.
The more gifts that are given to other players, the faster the Guelta will unlock.
The more poops that are left in other players' dens, the faster the Wallowing Pit will unlock.
As the Guelta and Wallowing Pit progress and open, they will unlock the Mantis Shop!
Then, as the Mantis Shop further unlocks, the lands of Africa will become snowier and snowier—and snuhlions will become available!

This month's currency is Stink Bugs.
Stink Bugs can be gained in Explore and winning battles against certain NPCs. There is also a chance that you can gain Stink Bugs from digging up poop bundles left in your den. The ability to dig up bundles begins on December 25th.

For the entire month of December, there will only be a wet season. You will not see any hint of dry season until December ends.

The December event launches on December 1st at 12am Lioden time and will end on December 31st at 11:59pm Lioden time. All unused event currency will be stored on your account until the next year.

Gifting and Pooping  

During December, when you visit another player's den page, you'll have the option to Gift! or Leave Poop.

You can gift or poop an individual player twice per week. The cooldowns for gifting and pooping reset every Wednesday and Saturday at rollover (2:05am Lioden time)! You'll find the Take me to a random player's territory! link to be quite handy for your gifting and pooping endeavours. This link can be found at any time via the Event tab on Lioden, and you can even bookmark it for quick access.

The options to gift and poop are available right from the start of the event, but will only last until December 24th 11:59pm Lioden time. Make sure you visit as many players' dens as possible within this given time so that everyone accumulates lots of bundles! Do keep in mind that a player must have logged in within the past 8 days in order to be eligible for a gift or poop.

You are able to freely give any amount of Silver Beetles (10 SB is the minimum amount to gift), Gold Beetles, or one item each time you gift a player. If you take care to track how often you can gift or poop, you can potentially leave 8 bundles per player during December (for the year 2020, anyway)! What these bundles contain is entirely up to you, but you may be interested to know that Gifting gives you +1 karma per gift left, while pooping gives you -1 karma per poop left.

If you tick the checkbox to make your gift or poop anonymous, the player who opens the bundle will not know who it's from! This is great if you want to shower your friends (or your enemies?) in surprise smelly gift bundles.

When you leave a gift in another player's den, you'll receive the following popup.

Success! You have left a gift for this player. You walk away feeling all warm and fuzzy inside!

When you leave a poop in another player's den, you'll receive the following popup.

Well... It may not be the most conventional of gifts, but maybe you're just letting the other lion know how you feel about them. Or maybe you're just weird.

If you visit the den page of a player you've already gifted (before the bi-weekly reset), you'll see this.

Don't fear, though! As mentioned previously, cooldowns reset every Wednesday and Saturday, so you'll be able to gift (or poop!) again.

From December 25th 00:00am LDT to December 31st 11:59pm LDT, you will be able to open up your bundles that others have left and see all the goodies (or poops) you got! Don't be upset if lots of people left you poop. Each poop bundle has a chance of giving you +1 Stink Bug!

Festive Gift  

For giving a total of 888 gifts to other players during the month of December, your kindness is awarded with a base applicator: Festive Gift! Poops do not count towards the Festive Gift counter. Only currency and items do.

As soon as you give your 888th gift, a popup will display at the top of your page.

Success! You have left a gift for this player. You walk away feeling all warm and fuzzy inside!

Oh! What's this?

You got 1x Festive Gift!

You can earn one Festive Gift per account per year.

Once you receive the popup, the applicator is then placed into your hoard and you can do with it as you please. Visit the Bases section of this page to see what the Festive base looks like!

Gifting Cave  

Due to popular request from players, a special gifting area that allows players to submit gifts for Lioden's moderators was added in December 2023! It is currently unknown at this time if it will return for future years.

This feature is completely voluntary and exists for those who want to show some appreciation towards the site's volunteer staff members. All gifts sent to the Gifting Cave are distributed evenly between the site's moderators. Initially, it was planned to give the gifts automatically on December 25th, but the gifting was postponed to the 27th. As Lioden's site admins are not anonymous and can be gifted directly via their den pages, they are not included in this feature.

The Gifting Cave states that currency is divided in a weighted ratio amongst trainees and longer term moderators, and will be as even as possible. Items are distributed as evenly as possible based on item type. Any currency and items left over will be stored to be gifted the following year, though it is unknown at this time whether the Gifting Cave will return in 2024 or future years.

Taking part in the Gifting Cave does not contribute towards the event bar, but does contribute towards your personal goal for the 888 gifts challenge. You may give one gift at most. You cannot leave poop or custom decors at the Gifting Cave.

Reptile Roundup  

For giving a combined total of 666 gifts or 666 poops (or any combination that totals to 666) during the month of December, you will unlock the Snuhlands level in Reptile Roundup! You will also unlock the Albino Snake skin for giving 666 gifts and the Mole Snake skin for giving 666 poops.

Visit the Reptile Roundup page to see what prizes you can receive from this level.

Some encounters this month will only appear once it's snowy enough in Africa! This means that when tiers unlock, more encounters will display.

Hover over the icons in the upper right corner to see whether an encounter is available during daytime, nighttime, wet season, or dry season. If on mobile, you can tap the icons for the same effect.

As you do your daily routine walk down this path, you stumble upon a lion being followed by a mass of cubs. The lion seems to be yelling "Cheap Cubs!". Outrageous! ...They seem underpriced.

Aww, what a heartwarming moment! The Gorillas from the Enclave decided to take some cubs out for a stroll to see the falling snuh.

Awww, it's V'Kai and Vashkartzen building a snuhlion together. You haven't seen them for a while now! You join in to pee all over and you end up having a snuhball fight. V'Kai is not sure who won.

Every sunrise you wake up to this. Why is the ground getting cold and white?

Exhausted from prancing around in snuh all day, you settle down to take a nap. As you're drifting off, a beautiful black wolf passes you by, smiling mysteriously. "Would you like to live deliciously?" asks the wolf.
Action	Result	Reward
Yes, please!	The wolf wags his tail gently. "Follow me to my... wolf den," he says. When you try to get up and move, you find yourself waking up from a nap in the snuh. Huh... maybe you shouldn't have eaten all that yellow snuh.	N/A

Falling "snuh" is clumping in small, white, fluffy mounds. Sometimes you push it around and it makes funny shapes.

In the middle of the night, you stumble across Nirah, who is moving slowly over the surface of a body of water without walking. Confused, you move in for a closer look, only to see that the Manticore is spending his leisure time skating on a frozen lake!
Action	Result	Reward
Join in	You eagerly run towards the lake, using your inertia to propel yourself across its surface. You end up crashing into Nirah, and you laugh about how lion claws aren't too great at braking on ice. The two of you skate together, showing off cool tricks and poses. Nirah leaves you with a holiday gift, hoping for a mistletoe kiss from you in future.	+1 to 2 Karma +2 Stink Bugs +1 Cow Carcass
Break the ice	You cackle and sneakily tip toe towards the lake. Using your mighty paws, you stomp at the ice, causing a loud crack to stop Nirah mid-way. He tries to yell at you, but it's quickly drowned in a splash of water as the ice breaks and falls apart instantly! You roll on the shore, laughing heartily as the wet Manticore climbs out on the other side of the lake. Through your guffaws, you hear him yelling profanities such as "You charming asshole!" and "If you weren't so pretty, I'd punch your face". Hilarious.	-1 to -2 Karma +2 Stink Bugs +2 Rib Bone

It looks like some fresh snuh hasn't melted yet. A cold, subtle white dust covers the reddish sand.
Action	Result	Reward
Slide	You decide to slide down the slope covered in the most snow. It turns out to be too sandy, and the torque against your rump causes you to roll down, fall on your head, and land against something hard! Ouch... It was fun, though! The object you hit is a rock, and underneath it you find some beetles.	+2 Stink Bugs +3% Energy
	You run excitedly and slide down like a total boss, using your paw pads for traction. Wheee!	+10% Energy

It's so cold, even the river stopped! It's partially transparent, and you can see some things hiding within. Trickles of gently-flowing water can be seen among the icicles. You wonder if you should crack some of the ice away—not too much, of course, you don't want to get hit by any falling chunks!
Action	Result	Reward
Pound the ice!	You found something…!	+1 Bat-Eared Fox Tail

Lightning crosses the sky, causing a loud crack to ring out. You immediately stop in your tracks. The light does not disappear; instead, a large rift in the sky appears, and a passage to the Celestial Kingdom of Leo opens! The celestial lionesses heard tales about snuh piling up in the lion lands. They really wanted to check it out!
Action	Result	Reward
Celebrate	You run towards them, excitedly asking about their holidays and offering to show them around. You spend the day together, chatting about future events, exchanging gifts, and laughing about silly neighbours. Unfortunately, it's not the time for a celestial raffle to take place, and they were unimpressed by your offering of glowing worms. There's so much snuh around to play with instead!	+2 Stink Bugs +2 Meteorite Shards

Looks like this fella wasn't so lucky when dealing with some elephant bullies.
Action	Result	Reward

Oh, no! It looks like the falling snuh has disturbed the Harbinger's peaceful slumber beneath the ground. The poor thing is shivering, not used to cold temperatures, and its usual dark and wet fur is now all frosted and fluffed up. Thankfully the sky is cloudy, so the Harbinger can safely find some refuge.
Action	Result	Reward
Offer warmth!	You offer your pride's feline companionship, knowing how well they can cuddle up into a purring pile and warm up anyone and anything. The Harbinger declines, appreciative of your offer, and states it has decided to descend deeper into some nearby caverns to rest in dark solitude... or have some "me time". It's not your business anyway. The Harbinger graciously bestows upon you a consolation gift before skulking off to continue its search for solace.	+2 Stink Bugs +1 Coal

Oookay... Moving on.

Suddenly the earth starts to shake and birds fly away screeching as this scary looking lion crosses your path. Accompanied by a lioness, he looks at you like he's about to eat your flesh.
Action	Result	Reward
Run, lion, run!	Letting out a quiet yelp, you turn around and run like the wind, eventually smashing your muzzle against a large tree. With a bleeding nose, you sit down to realise you just met the most evil lion there ever was. And he gave you a nosejob.	N/A

Action	Result	Reward
Casual chat	You approach the creature and try to calm it down by explaining that the snuh is just very, very cold rain. The Mngwa seems relieved, so much so that it shares its dinner with you. Aww!	+2 Karma +1 Stink Bug +1% Impression +1 Okapi Carcass
Begone!	You growl before letting out a fierce roar, scaring off the Mngwa. Begone, foul creature! Its behaviour is too unknown and unpredictable for you to feel comfortable having it around your pride. What if it eats cubs?!	-2 Karma +3 Stink Bugs +3% Impression -4% Energy

The white fluff from the sky is strangely wet and chilly.

This albino gorilla is hiding under a dead, lonely tree. It seems to be hugging a tiny, black kitten. You come closer to admire the warmth of how the ape seems to be caring for the cat, and leave them be.

This floppy looking lion seems permanently worried.

Upon a snowy hill, you spot Wenet the Wise building a snuhfluffball sculpture! You watch her progress intently. The bunny begins to look creepier and creepier over time, until Wenet starts to.. eat it. The whole thing. Wow. That girl is not right in the head.

Observe	You sit down and observe the brutal scenes. It's no wonder they don't want to talk about it, this is pretty rough! Although... you do have to admit that the winner definitely deserved first place. After a while, the group disperses and everyone goes their separate ways. When you're finally alone, you scrounge around and pick up whatever they scattered on the ground.	+1 Stink Bug

Whoa! A monkey is using a crocodile as a sled to slide down this frozen hill! It looks like fun to both of them!
Action	Result	Reward

Whoa! You spot two fluffy boys running around! Laharu seems to greatly desire what Anubis is having for dinner. It almost looks like Anubis is teasing the poor chubby hyena.
Action	Result	Reward
Steal food	You roar at the boys, which causes Anubis to drop the food in surprise and Laharu to turn into a stressed fluffball. He's too nervous to dare challenging a lion to get back that juicy meat! They both run away, biting at each other's ankles, blaming each other for losing the meal.	+2 Stink Bugs +1% Impression +1 Medium Meat Chunk
Offer food	You roar at Laharu, offering him some food to end this grueling torture.

"gift".	+3 Stink Bugs -10% Hunger

Action	Result	Reward
Make a snuhlion	You decide to gather up all of the snuh and build a snuhlion abomination. The result came out... okay, you suppose. It reminds you a bit of your friend when he ate a little too much fermented marula fruit one time at a gathering.	+2 Stink Bugs +3% Energy

You find a stray snuhlion, built out in the middle of nowhere! It looks like someone peed all over it, and there are rocks arranged in a strange pattern, but... you're not sure what it means. You're a lion, you can't read. Oh, hey! Stink bugs!

You find two lions nervously gathering piles of human-made items.
Action	Result	Reward
Approach	You come closer and ask the lions what those soft, rolling objects are. The male lion growls anxiously that toilet paper is the most important currency in the world right now, as he's planning on pooping in a lot of dens. You can have his useless Stink Bugs instead.	+3 Stink Bugs
Judge	You circle around and judge the lions from afar, distancing yourself from their paranoia. This is so dumb! Lions don't even use toilet paper! You spend your time gathering items that are way more useful for your den instead.	+1 Stink Bug +1% Impression +2 Large Leaves +5 Stick

Action	Result	Reward
Follow	You follow the giraffes for a short while, and eventually you can't quite keep up. A rainbow appears over your head, and you realise you've lost sight of them. You wonder if they were just a whispering echo.	+2 Stink Bugs +2 Rainbow Stones

You must be hallucinating from all that snuh reflecting the sun into your eyes. There's a bunch of odd creatures walking around!
Action	Result	Reward
Approach	You cautiously approach the critters to check them out. You ask them if they're the aliens that humans mention so often, but they laugh at you in response. "We're lions, silly! From another dimension, of course!" ... You aren't sure if that confirms your suspicions. When they finish building a snuh fort that you helped them with, they drop off some items they used to maintain their form in this dimension. Aliens are real, man! The truth is right here in your paws!	+2 Stink Bugs +1 Mist (Very Low Chance)
		+2 Stink Bugs +1 Snow (Very Low Chance)
		+2 Stink Bugs +1 Snow Flurries (Very Low Chance)

Action	Result	Reward
What are you?	The animal looks around nervously. "I am a jaguar and I think I got lost while being shipped to a zoo in Johannesburg. I... I guess I will find a lone lioness for protection or something, this place is really scary." He murmurs and runs away before you can catch him. Dang!

Gasp	You let out a gasp, witnessing this elephant mob activity. They turn towards you, startled by the noise you made. RUN! You dash into some dried barbs, since delicate elephant skin won't go near them. A little scratched, you come out a bit later with a souvenir.	+2 to 3 Karma +2 to 4 Stink Bugs
Approach	You approach the elephants, suggesting your discovery can be made public unless they give you something to keep quiet. They grumble, but give you currency in exchange to keep their secret hidden.	-2 to -3 Karma +2 to 4 Stink Bugs
Hide	You decide to hide, and not let the Elephant mafia notice you. In the shadowy bush, you notice some bugs crawling around.	+2 to 4 Stink Bugs

You roll in the falling "snuh"!

You spot a great celestial being playing with sparkly cubs along a river bank. It's the Demiurge! He looks at you and smiles, clearly a little troubled and overwhelmed by the energy of the cubs. "Oh, hello! We just stopped by for a short while. I wanted these cubs to learn about their home. They're learning so much about the outer worlds, so it's very important for them to remember the one they were born in, too."
Action	Result	Reward
Play with them!	You offer to take some of the burden off of the Demiurge's shoulders by playing with the cubs. They seem to have mostly forgotten about their time on Earth, and they do not appear to recognise you as a lion of any significance, but you end up having many laughs and a bitten tail anyway! The group leaves you with a gift for your time before you continue to get on your way.	+3 Stink Bugs +1 Gem: Celestite
NOTE: This encounter has a chance of appearing only if you have fully completed the Journey to Vredefort Crater questline.

You spot a group of adolescent lions behaving oddly. They appear to be dancing, talking to a tiny box, and being excited about a "tick tock" or something like that. The younger generation really baffles you sometimes.
Action	Result	Reward
Join the dancing	You leave your worries behind and join in! You learn some new dances from the very social, extroverted youngsters, who encourage you to express yourself the whole time. They're so positive and warm towards everyone, you can't help but be filled with lots of hope for the future to come. They seem impressed that you've embraced their way of life without putting them down.	+2 to 3 Karma +1 Stink Bug +2% Impression
Watch in confusion	You're a little out of touch when it comes to what the youngins are doing with their free time nowadays. They danced, they commented on some issues, and they invented intense challenges. It was all quite interesting, up until the box they were playing with fell from the rock holding it and broke, forcing them to get bored and leave. You get up, stretch a bit, and investigate the empty playground.	+2 Stink Bugs +2% Energy +1 Broken Camera

You start calling the white falling things "snuh".

You stick your tongue out and some "snuh" falls on it - teehee!

You stumble upon Laharu, the friendly and ever-so-hungry striped hyena! You can see he has something in his mouth, and he's trying to run away from you. Does he think you'll steal it? Is he ashamed? Is... is that a cub?! Is that a HYENA cub?! Is that his SON? What if it's not?! Is he running away to EAT it?! LAHARU!!! IT'S NOT FOOD!!! Oh, geez... he's too far away to hear you now.

You wander through these jolly lands, before your eyes a Felis stands. With his thick leg held up high, the Felis roars, "I feel just fine!"

"What's up, Greg? Guess what?" A loud voice catches your attention. You turn around to find a charming young lion looking intensely at you, like he fully believes you're the Greg he's looking for. Perhaps he's mistaking you for someone else?
Action	Result	Reward
I am not Greg	"What? Of course you are," the lion laughs nervously. "But just in case you aren't, you will be. Anyway, um, have you seen that lion who only eats HUMAN LIVER? You should check it out!" he exclaims excitedly, before taking you on a short journey filled with amazing commentary.	+1 Stink Bug +10% Energy +1 Human Liver
What?	"There's this lion who only eats HUMAN LIVER. He looks RIPPED. We should try doing that for a week, but, uh... you know what? I don't think it'd be healthy for me. But YOU? Oh, yeah. You look like you have a good base. You look great. Amazing. You try it, okay? Let me know how it goes!"	+2 Human Liver

Pst. Hey. Do you have yummy Stink Bugs? I, uh. I need them, man. I need them Stink Bugs. Here, take what you want, but give me Stink Bugs. Mmm. Stink Bugs.

The Mantis Shop is where you go to spend your Stink Bugs.
This shop is opened by the combined efforts of unlocking the Guelta and Wallowing Pit.

Welcome to the Guelta.. This area is a special place where you may drink and receive energy. The current energy boost given is +# per hour. This will increase if you unlock this area at the next level!

The Guelta is unlocked by progressing through the gifting bar.
At the Guelta, you can restore some of your energy by clicking the Oh Yes... Drink Up! button.

Tier One of the Guelta grants +5% energy per hour.
Tier Two of the Guelta grants +10% energy per hour.
Tier Three of the Guelta grants +15% energy per hour.

Yeeesh! This place stinks. But it seems to be a popular area for elephants and hippos to wade around in.. And with herbivores means there's always the chance of finding something they left behind. So what are you waiting for? Get digging and find some items!

With each unlock, more rare items will be available to be found in the Wallowing Pit.

The Wallowing Pit is unlocked by progressing through the pooping bar.
At the Wallowing Pit, you can dig up junk and treasures galore by clicking the Let's Get Dirty... Dig Away! button.

Tier two of the Guelta and the Wallowing Pit unlock the ability to build snuhlions in other players' dens!

Snuhlions are lovely snuh sculptures (actually some are pretty creepy) that can only be made by the lions of Lioden! They will show up on your den page at the top to scare the crap out of you—that's so you can then poop on everyone else's dens, right?

You do not have to build snuhlions. They're just fun little additional features to add to December's wacky vibes!

To make a snuhlion, just visit another active player's den page. At the very top, you'll find a button. Click that button, and a snuhlion to be proud of (or... not) will be built! You cannot make a snuhlion in your own den.

Made by A Disturbed Laharu. What a horrible travesty.

Wow. That's, erm... that's something, alright.

If you come across a den page that says the player has enough snuh, but you don't see the button to build a snuhlion, it means that you are on a snuhlion-building cooldown. You can build a snuhlion once every hour.

If you do not want to keep a snuhlion that someone has built in your den, then you have the option to Destroy it.

When you see the above message, it means that your den (or the player whose den you are visiting) is on a two-hour cooldown from having a snuhlion built in their den.

You do not have to worry about snuhlions affecting karma. Making one does not give you karma, and destroying one does not lower your karma, either! Make snuhlions to your heart's content without worrying about your Deathlord status from all that pooping!

Snuhlion Designs  

There are many different snuhlions you can build! Which one creeps you out the least?

The Advent Calendar is an annual occurrence that begins each year on December 22nd 12am LDT and ends on December 30th 11:59pm LDT.

Each day beginning from December 22nd, a numbered slot is "unlocked" and becomes available for you to click on, all the way until you have collected the eighth and last reward. In order to collect your rewards, you must click on the numbered slots in order from 1 to 8. The final reward is unlocked on December 29th; however, the Advent Calendar remains open until the very last minute of December 30th to allow everyone to collect their gifts!

There have been four total sets of Advent Calendar gifts, which are only available during certain years. The gifts are listed below in order of release date.
