WoW - Feast of Winter Veil 2007 Features Disclosed

This year's World of Warcraft holiday event is no much different than past ones, but that doesn't mean it's not going to feature new stuff as well. For example this new item you can obtain "by /kiss -ing a Winter Reveler NPC" to "create snowfall above any targeted player." Cute, insignificant stuff really, but hey, 'tis the season to be jolly!

New features to confirmed for Feast of Winter Veil 2007, according to an official Blizzard report:

The Preserved Holly that players can get from completing special holiday quests can now be used on flying mounts. This will temporarily turn their flying mount into a flying reindeer that trails sparkles as it flies through the air

Handful of Snowflakes - this is a new item you can obtain by /kiss -ing a Winter Reveler NPC. It will create a light snowfall above any targeted player.
