Trinket Trading

The Goblin Ball is a magical event full of treasures and mysterious creatures. Trinkets are small, magical items representing your character and the world you come from. They can be traded with guests freely or in exchange for a task (or bribe). With the tradition of Trinket Trading, you can take home a piece of the magic with you. 

What is Trinket Trading?

The tradition of Trinket Trading at the Goblin Ball is steeped in magic and mystery. As a guest, you have the opportunity to exchange enchanted treasures with other guests and the mysterious creatures that roam the ball. Whether you bring trinkets as gifts for your favourite characters or curses for your enemies is entirely up to you. The only limit to the magic you can experience through Trinket Trading is your imagination and creativity.

At the Goblin Ball, you can expect to encounter many magical beings who have their own trinkets to offer. These gifts are given freely, but some creatures may request a favour in return for their treasure. Regardless, the experience of Trinket Trading at the Goblin Ball is not to be missed, full of surprises and otherworldly delights.
