Marva's Gifts
Marva's unexpected takeover of the website has come to an end, but signs of her time at the helm remain. Her frenzied foray left more than a few digital holes in the code as well as some surprises!
Animated GIF of a crack opening up in the website. A dragon that resembles Marva pops her head out of the crack. The dragon is an Imperial with a top hat, a wide grin, and large round eyes. Unlike Marva's prior depictions, this dragon is styled like a creature built out of lines of code. The dragon's body contains lines of binary code in a colorful gradient shifting from teal green at the top to purple. After a few seconds, the dragon retreats back into the hole and the crack seals up. The animation repeat approximately every 11 seconds.

The strange square-shaped artifacts Marva distributed through Galore are no longer glitching, and will open to reveal six new effect items!
