SpoilerDisclaimers For those of you wondering, the prefix is 'Easter Egg' instead of 'Enigma' because if the enigma (aka cause/puzzle) is solved, then the only thing relevant to us at that point would be the easter egg (aka effect/prize).

All assertions on this thread are purely out of speculation until further proven.

It's that time of the year again, mice. Halloween 2015 is on now!
And, usually, with Halloween comes... you've guessed it: an enigma!

Last year either wrought havoc to Drekkemaus's soul or breathed him new life.

---

Before we focus on what the enigma could be applicable to, let's first look back at what we know based on the previous years, and, more importantly, the current year.

---

Which character(s) will be important to the storyline?

Will it be Archain von Drekkemaus?

What about Buffy?

Could Voldemouse be of any importance?

Maybe even P.F. Meadd will make a return!

---

Which settings will be important?

Could the outskirts of Drekkemaus's manor in Kürbisses-Nacht make an encore performance this year in the storyline?

Dare I say that Buffy's residence may have something to do with the enigma?

---

What major variables are there?

-The number 204

-The event titles

SpoilerList «Vampire» «The Cursed» «Voldemouse» «Vampire Slayer» «Von Drekkemouse» These are only the ones that seem most relevant to the possible enigma. Who knows? Maybe only people who've solved the enigmas before can have access to the puzzles.

Through the early period of the event, more and more theories will be added onto this thread, all containing proper arguments to back up such theories.

Have a theory you'd like to see in the OP? Don't be shy and certainly don't keep it to yourself; all assumptions are beneficial.

Now, without further ado, the theories....

Theory #1: The Love Theory

This first theory focuses on the events that happened after the happy ending from last year's Halloween event. It assumes that there is a story that we do not yet know about, one that revolves around Drekkemaus and Buffy's relationship. It could possibly bring light upon how the relationship grew to what it is now and even how Voldemouse came to be (aside from wanting to allude to Harry Potter). Could the key that Drekkemaus is holding be the key to Buffy's heart??? (Awww!!!) Probably not, but it could still be very relevant to other theories and possibly even this one.

What could the easter egg be?

Not only would we earn a fancy title or souvenir, but also a lovely addition to the lore of Transformice. Not only that, but seeing that there have been renovations in the manor (as seen by the lightning map where the back foyer now has a portrait of the family and an actual wall, with the gargoyle most likely removed to avoid frightening Voldemouse), the enigma could include images of how the mansion looks in the present. Wouldn't that itself be a treat for the community? It would definitely give more space for fan art.
If you're wondering what the renovations were, look at the spoiler below.

Most viable theory?

Theory #2: The Voldemouse Theory

Based on what we know so far, there have been renovations in the manor as well as an addition to the von Drekkemaus family. These two novelties seem to correlate in some way, but how? Maybe the gargoyle from the back balcony was removed so to not startle Voldemouse, and maybe the back foyer was built so that Voldemouse has a lower risk of falling off of the manor (because he obviously can't reach doorknobs) only to be greeted with a patch of deadly thorns. Bringing all that information into a coherent whole, we create our main question for this theory. Could Voldemouse have a backstory that we don't know about yet?

What could the easter egg be?

This enigma would most likely gravitate towards another series of parchments, since it would reflect on Voldemouse. To reiterate, it would require lots of information that could not be expressed or conveyed through just images or puzzles (like the Fishing 2013 or Halloween 2013 ones). Aside from all of this, those who complete the enigma would presumably get a title. This title would have to be more unique and distinct from «Voldemouse», the reason being that such title is already obtainable and it wouldn't be fair to those who already have it. I would expect something along the lines of «Halloween Baby» or «Junior Fangs». I would also expect a new item in Voldemouse's shop, but I wouldn't expect it to be costly. Rather, I only see it as a slight addition that could give Voldemouse more character. Maybe this item won't even be an easter egg but rather an important component for this enigma like the fortune cookies from last year.

But enigma has not been seen in the past... 3-4 events

But enigma has not been seen in the past... 3-4 events

That's probably because those events haven't ever had an enigma, unless you count the Papaille easter egg from 2013 which didn't even involve a puzzle in the first place.

The book from the login screen looks oddly similar to one of the books on the floor of Drekkemaus's library.
Comparison:

^ also there's a giant pumpkin in the bottom right corner, and in the 2015 one its cloudy, whereas in the 2014 one it isn't, and you can see the moon
