Tax Beast

In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except Dr. Death and the Tax Beast.

The Tax Beast is a green imp who travels Neopia collecting a tax from users as part of a random event. He first appeared on October 30, 2002. When the Tax Beast appears, he steals ten percent of the Neopoints that the user has on hand. There is a High Score Table for the Tax Beast, and trophies are given out to the users who lose the most money to him.

A related monster, the Angry Tax Beast, is a red imp that steals twenty five percent of a user's on-hand Neopoints.

Random Event

There is one random event involving the Tax Beast:

Not been paying your bills eh? The Tax Beast arrives and takes 10% of your Neopoints away!

After receiving this Random Event, the user will lose 10% of the Neopoints that they have on hand. Neopoints that are stored in the National Neopian or a Shop till are not affected by this event. The first time that a user receives this event, they will unlock the Tax Beast as a one-player challenger in the Battledome.
