Also beginning on the 14th (through January 2nd), a new contact will be found in Pocket D \u2013 Old Father Time. The keeper of the new year has a crisis on his hands, one that can prevent time from moving forward, and thus bringing an end to the universe. Heroes and Villains can band together to tackle this task, a task that sees an old foe Snaptooth make a vengeful return.<\/p>\n<div class=\"insetLeft\"><a href=\"javascript: view_screen(3);\"><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p>Snaptooth is back for the renewal of the year, and with a cunning plot to grind time to a halt. Snaptooth has kidnapped Baby New Year in order to keep Old Father Time from passing on the chronological mantle. If he keeps Baby New Year locked away forever, guarded by the Red Caps and allies among the Tuatha, winter will never give way to spring, and the universe as we know it may come to an end.<\/p>\n<p>Old Father Time can be found through a doorway in Pocket D that leads to a ski chalet built on a piece of the Shadow Shard. If you help him out, he\u2019ll give out a choice of one of several fabulous holiday presents.<\/p>\n<div class=\"insetRight\"><a href=\"javascript: view_screen(2);\"><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p>On top of everything else, the Gamester is loading the streets and rooftops with gifts once more.
