The good people over at Runewaker Entertainment in Taiwan have decided to go all out to celebrate St. Valentine’s day in their free MMO RPG, Runes of Magic.  More fun pictures after the jump.

Love and romance is filling the the virtual air all over Taborea, the world of Runes of Magic.  Players can make handcrafted chocolates, guaranteed to woo and restore 35% of a love interests HP.  What girl could say no?!? Once a player has made or collected 5 chocolate sweets they are granted the ability to use the ‘World Broadcast’ once.

If you have more of a green thumb than a sweet tooth, never fear, part of the celebrations include collecting and culturing rose seeds. The beautiful blossoms reward the gardener in a number of ways, the player receives a buff when the flower blooms and there are special rewards for collecting a large bouquet:

10 roses can be exchanged for a Pegasus or unicorn mount so the player can prance around for the duration of the festivities and 30 roses can be exchanged for a special title.

If your worried your battle hardened level 45 Warrior is going to look a tad ridiculous,  take a gander at the picture below. The unicorns look more like billy goats that would gore you to death as soon as look at you that the traditional steeds you might find on your auntie Mavis’s mantle piece.

If these pics have you in the mood for romance and adventure  you can check out the free-to-play, free-to-download open beta of Runes of Magic here.
