Finally, we’ll share details on some upcoming content: a monster drop, a Season 1 Starter Bundle, and a scary good Party Pass!

If you’ve played through the tutorial, you’ve met Trickle, a free-to-play non-nft Blanko that comes with the unique Trickster class. We have taken this Trickster class, updated it and have now made it available as a selectable class for all Season 1 Blankos.

Trickle will continue to remain as is, true to its legacy and will not change to the updated Trickster class!
