This section covers treasures that were added during the halloween 2015 event. Before you can even attempt to obtain these treasures, there are two things that you must do:

First:
You need to find the gargoyle in Hungarian Fort. When you reach him it will ask you to input a code - the code you need to input is this (scroll for other letter options when you are there):



Second:
After inputting the above code, you need to go to Transylvania, and find the gargoyle crypt. To find the crypt, you are looking for a node that has only status on - there is no other visual indicator. Once found, completing the event there will unlock these treasures as a chance to appear in your game.

After completing the above, there are two things you need to be aware of:
1) Just like the other starter island treasures, some of these have more than one source, I will list just one of the places they can be found.
2) This is the really important part: there is an element of LUCK involved. Even if you pass all the checks etc, there is a chance you will not be awarded the treasure. Suck it up and try again. :)

Emperor Statues
500 renown

Friendly/Status
Friendly/Gold

It's worth noting that during the last world map phase (after your 4th expedition), if you spend all your insight on one token type you can gain that trophy regardless of what you've done that run. For example, if you spent all your insight on gold after expedition 4, you have a higher chance of securing one of the gold statues.

Sometimes having a certain treasure with you can have an effect on events during an expedition. I'll document here what events are affected.
