WP_Query for Event Category

    I am having trouble creating a custom WP_Query for the taxonomy-event-category template.

    I want to alter the number of posts that display because using the normal loop query will pull from the WordPress settings that are set.

    If I create a custom WP query and set post type to events it will pull all events and not just the events from that particular category.

    How can I tell the custom query to only pull events from the category instead of pull all events?

    Thanks!

    This a rather late reply, but:

    add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'my_change_events_per_page' );
function my_change_events_per_page( $query ){

     if( $query->is_main_query() && is_tax( 'event-category' ) ){
          $query->set( 'posts_per_page', 5 );
     }

}
