Howdy, howdy, Toons! I hope you’re all having a safe time out there, now that the Bloodsucker Mega-Invasion is over. It’s been a dark and cloudy couple of days -- isn’t it just amazing how the skies get dark at the exact same time every year? Sir Max and Jack claim it’s due to some “Spooktown Curse.” Though, I’m pretty sure it’s because all those Bloodsuckers that come out are Liquidating everything, myself. Anywho, speaking of Halloween, I have some important information to share with you about the future of Black Cats in Toontown!

Today, I have none other than Baron von Booregard with me as I make this most spooktacular announcement! I, Flippy Doggenbottom, am passing down my power as bestower of the Black Cats and utterer of the Midnight Incantation (the Midnight In-CAT-Tation, if you will). As I hand off this dark tome, Booregard shall now possess the magic to turn cats black! From TOMORROW until November 1st, come on down to Toontown Central to receive a ToonTask from them! Of course, I still have the magic all memorized. If you’re brand-new, you can still come see me on Tutorial Terrace to turn into a Black Cat! Just make sure you remember to say the code word in SpeedChat -- Toontastic!

For those of you existing Cats who wish to become Black Cats, Booregard will give you a hand if you complete their task! The magic tome can grant you either temporary or permanent color, depending on your preference. The temporary effect only lasts until November 1st, so choose wisely! 

For all of you non-cat Toons out there, we’ve still got you covered. In an effort to help reduce the drain that was caused by the Bloodsucker Mega-Invasion, Lord Lowden Clear sent the Toon Resistance deep into Lawbot HQ to steal the Chief Justice’s Cog Summons! For completing Booregard’s new task, you will also receive one of these handy-dandy Bloodsucker Cog Summons! Under normal circumstances, you’d have to already have your Lawbot Disguise to obtain these papers. If you aren’t quite there yet, this ToonTask is for you! And for all you seasoned Toons out there, be careful -- if you already have a Bloodsucker Cog Summons, you won’t be able to get another!

That’s all for today, Toons! Once again, these changes will be active tomorrow! Booregard still needs a little time to prepare. Until next time, I hope you all have an absolutely spine-chilling, highly thrilling, and fear-instilling Halloween!
