April Fools/Jester Festival ideas for ZOS!

What are some ideas you can think of for pranks that ZOS could do to us or the game on April Fools day? 
I know it's a while away but I just thought it would be fun to come up with some things, maybe ZOS could actually test some of our suggestions out in the mean time? 
I know there's going to be some sarcastic replies, but just try to keep it civil and in good humour The devs do read our posts after all
One idea I had was that the target skeletons in our houses could start attacking us, that would be quite a shock initially. Or perhaps they move location just a little, follow us around haha.

All Argonians will be replaced by walking handbags
All Orcs will be replaced by bottle openers
All Elves will be replaced by hot air
Combat skills will be simplified for all classes - you now just have stab, punch, heal, tickle, step on toe and box ears.
All weapons will be replaced by giant spoons
Fish now walk on the land and rabbits swim underwater
Houses now have keys. If you lose them NPC blacksmiths can make you a new set for half a million gold pieces
Jewellery crafting master writs are now really great
Carrots grow on trees - like the magic one at Castle Claws
Murkmire recipes are now included in every single drop - metheglin is now very, very rare indeed.

This one would make a very poor fur coat, especially in Murkmire.
All the mud on the snow white fur. So terrible!

✭✭✭✭✭They could announce that in future vMA gear would be dropping in crown crates, but only the magicka-based gear as they were removing stamina from the game.
April 1st notwithstanding, it would trigger some pretty feverish forum activity

There is. It is called Elder Scrolls "Blades". Pre view was E3.

Another one I thought of: Replacing trial end bosses with different normal NPCs or assistants. So you get to the end of Maw of Lorkhaj and instead of Rakkhat you get the Banker "How can I help?" *flies up above middle platform and slams down to begin fight* Priests of Hircine

Gatviper✭✭✭✭This was once done in Everquest II. They put bunnies in every in-game overland zone, but they were more like cosmetic, non-attackable critters. On April the 1st those bunnies started chasing players and one-shotting them, which put quite a scare in many player then, it was 2015 I think. They made them passive critters the day after again, and never re-activated any following years.
But it was actually hilarious to be shock-surprised by vorpal bunnies.Life is a ride, like days in a train, cities rush by, like ghosts in the night.
