In ancient times, in the Age of the Dofus, the passage of time from Octolliard to Novamaire was every year marked by a strange curse...
Legend has it that a Bwork by the name of Al Howin, a pumpkin farmer, was exiled from Amakna  for forbidden trickery and subterfuge. But swollen with hatred, he returned every year to sow discord in Amakna, bewitching gobballs and tofu.
It is unknown whether this Bwork survived Ogrest's Chaos and continues his revenge, or if some pranksters are amusing themselves mimicking his work, but in the Age of Wakfu, the World of Twelve is still thrown into disarray at the approach of Octolliard 31st.
