Finally, we have a Super-Duper Grand Prize for the month.

Every time you spin the Wheel of Fortune (free spins included) you will be entered to win a unique artifact. This item is called the Skull of Norrix. It can be used to stun all mobs in a room for 10 seconds, excluding a few types. It has a 60 minute cooldown.

At the end of the month of October, one character will randomly be drawn to win this prize.
