The Festivult holiday event is coming to Dungeons & Dragons Online in Update 8, but you can get a head start on the festivities. Beginning today and throughout the holiday season, every treasure chest in the game has a chance of dropping "festival coins" in addition to the usual treasure. Once the Jester of the Festivult appears in Update 8, you can give him your coins to earn gifts. Check after the jump for a list of the items you can obtain during the event.

There also a very small chance that the Jester will give you an exceptional gift for your coins, but you'll have to wait until Update 8 to see if you're lucky enough to get one. Also, goodies from past Festivults will have different effects this year. Store some of your goodies in a new Cookie Jar from the DDO Store and see what they do next year!
