Star Stable and Dreamworks have teamed up and Spirit has come to visit Jorvik! You can learn more about him by visiting Tori near the Fort Pinta fountain.

Spirit has arrived in Jorvik and in the near future, you and your friends will be able to do quests with Spirit. By completing enough quests and achieving the reputation level Admired with Spirit, he will become your horse.

Good luck!

Spirit turns up at a new place in Jorvik every hour, on the hour. If you find him, he has a quest that you have to help him with.

Spirit moves between many different places in Jorvik, so get help from your friends to find him!

Spirit is on the go every day between times 0800 and 2100.

In Fort Pinta, you will find Tori and Sally. They have been fans of Spirit since they were little. they are selling clothes and gear with a Spirit theme. At their place, you can buy a special apple to give to Spirit to make him stay with you as your horse.

When Spirit likes you enough, you can buy a Miradero apple to give him to make him stay with you as your horse.

You can buy the Miradero apple in Fort Pinta.

Spirit is still a wild horse and doesn’t want a lot of gear weighing him down. You cannot put horse equipment on Spirit.

 

Spirit works like regular reputation quests. They are first initiated by speaking to Tori by the Fort Pinta fountain. Once done, you must find Spirit out in Jorvik once an hour. Spirit moves according to the server time, not the player local time. The server time can be found on the clock town in Silverglade Village.

You will be notified when you are in an area near Spirit. Follow the blowing leaves to narrow down his location. Once you find him, you can start a blue point quest for reputation with him. His quests involve finding a location somewhere nearby. You will be shown a preview of the area you need to find. Pay close attention, as it will not be indicated on your minimap. If you need to see the preview again, talk to Spirit.

Spirit can be found in the following locations:

• South Hoof Peninsula
• Sunfield Farm
• Stormgarden
• Everwind Fields
• Hollow Woods
• The Cauldron
• Forgotten Fields
• Jarla Cafe
• Greendale
• Valedale Lake
• Seahorse Point
• Nilmer’s Highland
• Silverglade Acres
• North Iron Gate
• Jarlaheim
• Goldspur’s Farm
• Fort Pinta Road
• Moorland Beach
• Valedale
• Moorland Road
• Dew’s Farm in Epona
• The Fire Trail
• Apple Grove
• Firgrove Road
• New Hillcrest
• Eastern Slopes
• Moorland
• Goldenleaf Forest
• Doyle’s Abbey
• Jarlaheim Fields
• Riding Hall
• Shadowy Hills

Spirit’s quests give 200 reputation points. You will need to help Spirit 30 times to reach Admired with him.

Just like regular reputation quests, when you reach a new level, you will need to speak to Tori to be able to continue with quests. If you do not, Spirit will not appear for you in new locations until you do. When you have reached Admired, return to Fort Pinta and purchase the Miradero apple from Sally’s shop for 699 Star Coins. You will then need to find Spirit again to feed him the apple. He will then travel to your home stable and function as regular horse you can ride.

Spirit is yours to keep forever. You can ride him as much as you want, though he will not wear tack. Even though he is a mustang, he is not able to perform the special move when you press spacebar.

Spirit Quests

A Wild Mustang

Hi!

Have you heard?

Rumor has it that Spirit is here in Jorvik! Me and my best friend Sally have come all the way here just to meet him. We’ve idolized him ever since we were little. 

You don’t know who Spirit is?!

Spirit is the best! He’s a wild Mustang who always wants to help those close to him. I bet he’s here to see what he can do to help the people and animals here in Jorvik. You should try to find him so you have the chance to meet him and get to know him. If you love horses, Spirit is a horse you must get to know!

Objectives: Talk to Tori again.

Rewards: Lucky’s Special Occassions Dress

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

I don’t know where he is, but I’ve heard that he is moving between different places here on the island. Perhaps you’ll get lucky and find him!

Quest completed

______________

Is It True?!

There you are! You have to tell me! Is it true? Is it true that you are friends with Spirit?

That is so cool! You must have made a really good impression on Spirit.

Objectives: Talk to Tori again.

Rewards: 50 Jorvik Shillings, 25 XP, Lucky’s Mom’s Boots

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

We have to celebrate the fact that you are friends with Spirit!

Take this! It’s something that all horse lovers might need!

Quest completed

______________

A Close Friend

Wow! Have you and Spirit become really close friends now?

Ha ha! How cool! You just can’t help but love that horse!

Objectives: Talk to Tori again.

Rewards: 50 Jorvik Shillings, 30 XP, Head Ribbon for Horse

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Hey, I have a present for you. I definitely think you should have it, given how much you’re helping Spirit!

Here you go!

Quest completed

______________

Best Friends

Oh! Congratulations! I’m so happy for you! How cool that you and Spirit have become best friends and that he likes you so much. You really must have spent a lot of time with him.

The more you get to know that horse, the more you like him. Don’t you agree?

Objectives: Talk to Tori again.

Rewards: 50 Jorvik Shillings, 40 XP, Beige Miradero Sweater

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Because you’re best friends with Spirit, you have to have this. There’s no danger, just take it.

Here you go!

Quest completed

______________

Admired by Spirit

I’m impressed! I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone who Spirit seems to admire as much as he admires you.

Hmm, would you like to give him something as a token of your friendship?

I’ve got an idea of what you can buy. In our store, we have a special kind of apple that only grows in Miradero, where Spirit is from. These kind of apples are really, really hard to get a hold of if you don’t live there. I bet that if you bring the apple to Spirit and let him have a taste of his home land, he will just love it!

Objectives: Talk to Tori again.

Rewards: 50 Jorvik Shillings, 50 XP, Horse Hat

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

But before you think about whether to give something to Spirit or not, Sally and I want to give you something! Just because we think you’re so cool that you managed to get even Spirit to admire you.

So we want to give you this!

Here you go!

Quest completed

Poor Star Stable tried to make the quizzes challenging but it seems that the questions are either worded badly (both saddle pads and blankets are something you can use on horses) or the answers given aren’t correct, even if you Google them (horses CAN drink up to 12 gallons a day but that certainly isn’t typical). I myself have gotten frustrated with these quests so I am breaking my rule about posting special event information.

Each character has a yellow exclamation point quest in which they tell you they have a quiz trail. Click on them again and the trail itself becomes a daily quest. You can only do a trail successfully once. If you fail, you can try again tomorrow until you answer correctly. You will not be told if your answers were correct until you return to the quest character to end the quest and you will not be told which answers were incorrect if you fail.

There is one item from each person except both James and Pamela Moonriver give two. Complete all of the quizzes and you will have earned the 5th year birthday set.

So… I was dumb and didn’t save the clues from last year, so I will be updating this post every day as I get each new clue. Sorry ’bout that y’all.

Speak to Felix to begin the daily treasure hunt. There is a general area to search and the treasure will be found in a different exact location for each player. Once you have found the treasure, return to Felix and he will give you a prize from a lottery of prizes. Just like with the Christmas treasure, it is possible to get the same prize more than once.

Thursday

“Felix can be a big prize-giver
Just find the treasure to deliver
You’ll hear the sound with an excited shiver
Of a song so silver from the river.”

-Silversong river, east side, between the mill and Valedale.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Friday

“By the coast and beach and gentle waves
The road towards Fort Pinta paves
A path to the treasure Felix craves
At the ruined church with its peaceful graves.”

-Doyle’s chapel, in and around the graveyard.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Saturday

“A hunt for treasure with thrills and scrapes
With fun and laughs and close escapes
Go search for the box of golden shapes
Among the stables, terraces, and grapes.”

-Winery vineyards

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Sunday

“Through tree trunks and rocks, the path you wove
Could lead you to the treasure trove
Search between an apple grove
and the southern tunnel where bulldozers drove.”

-Applegrove, south of Firgrove, directly across the water from Fort Pinta

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Monday

“The treasure hunt is under way
So find the loot without delay!
The clue I have for you today:
The giant building with stone so grey.”

-Silverglade castle

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Tuesday

“To gain your prize for treasure found
You need to hear the whooshing sound
Of a mill in the wind going round and round
So ride on up to a hillside mound!”

-Mill Hill of Will

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Wedsnesdy

“The blowing of an eternal breeze
A gentle wind that doesn’t freeze
And rustles sweetly in the trees
Where balloons fly high with the birds and the bees.”

-Everwind Field, under the hot air balloons
