Overview
Global quests were added to the game in February 2012 as a way of encouraging community spirit and teamwork. The quests are fairly uncommon (so far they have appeared once a month), extend over a period of four days, and require the members of the community to kill as many of a specific target creature (or creatures) as possible during that time. The creatures are low-level enough that most players will have no problem killing them, and they spawn in a wide variety of maps throughout the realms.
Each Global Quest has an associated reward. Thus far, all such rewards have been containers offering the user's choice of 2-3 potions. The number of such containers received is determined by the number of kills achieved by the community. For details, see the section below on the specific Global Quest in which you are interested.
To earn the quest's reward, the player must kill at least a specified number of target creatures, which varies from quest to quest. Once a player has done so, he is "Qualified," and will receive the same reward as every other qualified player. This has aroused some controversy, as some players have argued that those who put in more effort ought to receive better rewards than those who obtain the minimum number of kills to qualify and then quit.
In addition to the unique reward associated with each Global Quest, there are also two series of medals associated with Global Quests. The Global Quest Qualified Medal is awarded to individuals killing a specific number of target creatures, and the Global Quest Top 100 Medal is awarded to the 100 individuals in each Global Quest who kill the largest number of target creatures. Like all medals, each is available in five levels of difficulty: bronze, silver, gold, crystal, and ruby.
As this is a new addition to the Fallen Sword Universe, it is undergoing rapid change, and will likely continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

Comments
When this Global Quest began, the number of kills required to reach each tier was 5,000,000. This was lowered to 3,000,000 on day three of the event.
Some players early in the event reported having large numbers of kills go uncredited. While the error causing this was fixed by the event's end, both final individual and community tallies remain somewhat in dispute.

Official Announcement
Darksun Dragons are rarely encountered, preferring sleep the year away in desolate lands and caves far from those who would hunt them. However during the rare celestial eclipse known as the Darksun happens these Dragons awaken and migrate in huge numbers from their hidden haunts descending upon the populated lands to feed in an orgy of fire and blood before returning to their dark hidden homes.
The Darksun Dragons are known to horde great treasures. Join together now and help defeat them!
Darksun Dragon (Level 25)
Note that the Global Quest will last just over 4 days and the dragons will spawn in various realms through the world.

Official Announcement
It is a dark day. On this day, many years ago, the beloved Royal Family of Albiton were brought low by the insidious attack of a nameless Necromancer. The Albiton Family had potent Alchemists, who worked wonders with their potions. The Necromancer, fearful of this power, poisoned the Yeoman Guard of the Royal Household and raised their dead bodies. Thus the Royal House of Albiton fell. Trapped in their own towers with their own undead Guards preying upon them.
Now, the Yeomen have risen again across the land. The Warrior of the Realms must destroy them. If you aid in this task, you can earn the potions of the fallen House.
The latest Global Event in Fallen Sword is now underway! In the Event, the Community must work together to destroy the Zombie Yeomen infesting the Realms.
Each player must earn a personal target for increasingly powerful potion rewards (mouse over the event info on the World page for more details) while also helping the Community to attain the best total kills possible, unlocking the rewards for all.
To this end, we have also introduced the Global Booster buff, available in potion form from the Loyalty Page. This acts similarily to the Doubler skill, but multiplies your contribution per kills instead of the xp / gold.
Additionally, for the Top Three Contributors to the Community Total, they will receive an exclusive custom Avatar for the game drawn by our artist Forn!
The Event shall be live until 17:00 (Server Time) on Saturday the 4th of August.
