Whispered Rumor
Overview
Whispered Rumor is an Event Tip Mission that was added in Halloween 2010. When a character goes Trick or Treating in a Temporary Costume (whether gained from a 'Treat' or a permanently bestowed one such as from attending a convention), there is a chance of a Halloween Tip Mission dropping from a 'Treat'. This Halloween Event Tip will drop even if you already have 3 Alignment Mission Tips. Testing has indicated that you need to be Level 20+ and not in Praetoria to get this Tip. No official word whether that is working as intended.
The Tip is entitled Whispered Rumor and has a jack-o'-lantern picture on it.
Rewards
The Halloween Tip Mission grants some minor rewards plus one of five badges:
You have kept the Malleus Mundi secure the best way you know how, by securing it yourself.
The Malleus Mundi has real power, and you've tapped into some of its potential.
You have gone about the proper ritual to destroy the Malleus Mundi, but you are unsure if it is truly gone.
You have done your best to hide the Malleus Mundi in a place where it can never be found.
- Heroes and Vigilantes Only
You've handed the Malleus Mundi over to MAGI for safekeeping. You hope.
Unfortunately MAGI didn't hold onto the Malleus Mundi for long, or you'd know just where to make a quick score.
- Villains and Rogues Only
Selling the Malleus Mundi to the highest bidder is a choice that may come back to haunt you.
You never knew that a simple unreadable book could fetch such a price.
Accolade
Collecting all five Halloween Tip Missions badges grants the Meticulous Accolade.
You are not tied to any single decision, and must pursue every course of action available to determine the consequences.
