Notable features Curator of the Beekeeper random event

The Beekeeper is a random event where a beekeeper will teleport a player to a field of beehives and request help to repair a broken beehive. Players must assemble the beehive from its four main parts by clicking on them and moving them into their place marked in the center of the screen. After positioning a piece, select another and repeat the process, until the beehive is completely repaired. After all the pieces have been placed, click the build button at the bottom of the screen to finally assemble the hive.

If the hive is successfully repaired, the player will receive a random event gift and be returned to their original location.

If they fail, however, the bees will escape from their hive and the bees will start attacking the player (no damage is taken). The bee keeper will then teleport the player away to a random location (not their original location).

A player failing this random event will say, "Aarrhh! I'm covered in Bees!"

As of 25 February 2009, players may receive this event while doing anything, not just picking flax. This event also became available for Free players.

[edit] Trivia

  • The phrase "Covered In Bees!" is from a sketch by comedian Eddie Izzard.
  • Players can get this event anywhere, despite the fact that the beekeeper says that he "Saw you picking flax in the field"
  • Before the Random Event update on 25 February 2009, players could only get this random event whilst picking flax. If players failed the event, rather than being "teleported" by the Beekeeper, they would be chased by bees and forced to dive into water. This still teleported them, but it was always to a body of water near Seers' Village.
