*NEW AMBERMAS AVATARS*

served with pastiche Christmas song quotes

COAL AVATAR

He sees you when you’re playing, he knows when you’re in game, he knows when you’ve been bad or good, so be good, for goodness sake!

BAUBLE AVATAR

Christmas Eve will find me, where the Bauble Avatar gleams. I’ll be playing Amberial for Christmas, if only in my dreams.
