UO Second Age

I saw an NPC named "a leprechaun" that was dressed appropriately, but when I approached he disappeared. Whats that all about?

I want to meet a leprechaun!!!!

How to kill them?? Hehe.

I was looking for something on player vendors today and saw both a Leprechaun and this green dragon named Leprechraunicus or something. I was able to kill both of them.

From the leprechaun I salvaged:
the head of a leprechaun
a Leprechaun's Pants
a Leprechaun's Hat

From the dragon:
a Leprechaun's Hat
(some other loot)

I realize that Leprechaun's are still spawning and other folks might acquire these items too. Does anyone have any idea what these items might be worth?

(admittedly crossposted from another thread)

It should be noted that the legitimate leprechaun know how to spell their names, and are not blue

It's sad there are no screenshots of Leprechaunicus!

i generally prefer the events where you just log in.
ran around looking for these mob's yesterday for 30-60 mins?
today i'll do the same, but that's probably it.

when i first started here it was a cool way to make money, hunting holiday mobs.
but now that i'm fairly settled in i really have little interest in running around
for several hours hunting a mob that may not even surface.

maybe there's good reason for it like over saturation of the items but
it takes a long time to bump into these mobs if you aren't playing all day.

regardless of my standpoint, nice job on the holiday events in general.
having them is a perk.

What outrageous defilement of the bardic arts is this that prevents me from provoking these leprechauns into fighting with monsters? I demand answers on behalf of my brothers in the music trade.
