Raffles & Giveaways

[center][u][b][size=5][size=5]Introduction[/size][/size][/b][/u][/center] A dark grey and purple tent sits in the middle of an overgrown field. Hesitantly, you step through the flaps, wondering what you'll find. Suddenly, a figure emerges from the shadows.

Circuses are fun, aren't they?" The coatl's whispering cadence draws you further in to the center of the massive tent, and soon, you're in front of a massive, beautifully decorated trunk. The coatl nods, and you hesitantly open the lid and peer in to find... nothing. In fact, it stretches down into what seems like an endless pit. The coatl chuckles at your confusion and leans over your shoulder. "Wishing for everything... will get you... nothing..." Startled, you spin around, but he's already gone. [center][u][b][size=5][size=5]The Game[/size][/size][/b][/u][/center] Hello, thank you for stopping by! This is a game I've put together for Halloween. It's a "Give and Get," and here's how it works. 1. Pop in and play for a trick or treat. [b]You must post![/b] You can simply state that you're joining, but RPing with a dragon makes it more fun! If your dragon is dressed up in a costume, even better ^_^ 2 (a). Send me 3+ items through PM. They can be anything! Battle stones, fams, skins, etc. But here's the catch: [b]Whatever you send me is what someone else gets.[/b] The reason that I'm having you send items to me and not just directly claim/send is because I will, of course, add in my own surprise! 2 (b). If you don't have any items but would still like to play, you can send me 20g/kt to get in! 3. For parts of my contribution, I am willing to look at wishlists. So when you send your items in PM, feel free to give me a link/list to whatever you're after! [center][u][b][size=5][size=5]When to Start[/size][/size][/b][/u][/center] You can start sending me items today! [b]This even will run from October 23-31. I will redistribute items and my own treats on October 31.[/b] Feel free to post here or PM me with any questions. I look forward to seeing how this event goes!

For the day of Halloween, October 31st, I'll submit a lore blurb below. On the 31st, everybody can come back and submit another gift bag and entry. This means, in other words, that everybody can participate twice! If you can work your RP into it, I'll give you an extra final ticket before the drawing! Without having to bump/refer people, you could get 3 tickets into the raffle.

You expectantly gaze down after the items you’ve tossed in to the chest, but all that stares back at you is a void. After a few moments, you turn away to leave. But as you reach the tent flaps, you hear... no, feel... a presence around you. It makes you shiver, and you can almost feel a second heartbeat within you. And then, gradually, a yearning to return to the chest drags at you. You try to push the feeling away, but it pulls at your feet and sits in your mind, enticing you to take another look. You take a step to turn around, but your foot hits... nothing...

That is why the clan sent her out into the festivities so she can learn the spirit of the season. They think that she will truly enjoy herself by the end of things.

She was startled by the Coatl and even more so at seeing the empty void of the chest. Hesitantly she emptied her satchel and allowed for her items to disappear into the pit.[/i]

LaserArmory shuddered at the sight of the coatl. Old people always freaked him out.

I get it, you're a big scary clown, or whatever. Wonderful circus shtick you've got going. Cool. Trick or treat now, please."

His gaze lands on the tent, and he walks over, steps unnaturally smooth. He leans down to look at the little hatchling. he stares into the young dragon's eyes, all seriousness and dark shadows, before a smile pulls at the corner of his mouth. He presses a small package into the hatchlings claws, and whispers [b]Happy Halloween, little one.[/b] Turning, he sweeps off, and into a black and cyan tent. He comes out a moment later, and heads into the large tent in the center. [/I] ~ He opens a small, silvery-gray satchel, selecting a talonful of items, before calling, 'trick or treat!' into the trunk. His voice echoes, and he swears he can hear laughter before he turns his talon to face down, the items falling slowly. ~ Grimshaw sighed contentedly. Meeting Nightmaw had been a pleasant experience; they had chatted amicably, shared tea, and overall had a good time. He had dropped several items into the chest, watching as they disappeared before bidding Nightmaw a good evening and leaving.

"What an odd antiquity," he murmurs, tapping one long claw along its rim. "I wonder what it might sell for?" But as soon as the thought crosses his mind, an unexpected shiver runs down the dragon's spine. "No," he whispers, quick to amend, "I suppose such thievery might not be tolerated in this place." Surprisingly abashed, Cyanide reaches into his cloak, shuffling amongst an unseen pack. For a moment, the only sound the eerie dragon seems to make is that of clinking coins and shifting items. When his claws once more return, a small bundle of black cloth is grasped within; a neat wrap over some unknown good. Cyanide sighs softly as he drops the bundle into the trunk, the present vanishing silently into the void below.

She rummages in her trick or treat bag before dropping a few items into the trunk, happily watching as they disappear.

A young Banescale hatchling approaches, followed closely by a floating orb. He's carrying a tiny sackdoll modeled after him. He seems very excited, albeit a bit confused. He's heard about this tradition from wandering Moderns that passed through his clan but he's never been a part of it. Banescales didn't celebrate Halloween before their fall and they certainly didn't "trick-or-treat"... but that won't stop this little one from trying his best. Finally at your doorstep, he sits down and pulls out a crumpled paper Fae mask from the crook of his right wing. [i]It must have been hidden by the feathers[/i], you think. He shakes it loose, and holds it up proudly. The colors match him and for a second you think he's going to put it on. He does not put it on. He was told to [i]bring[/i] a costume, not to wear it. And the idea of wearing things is so foreign to him it never crosses his mind. At his side the orb spins, sparkling like the night sky, and reveals a pair of glowing pink eyes. You blink. It blinks back. Without breaking eye contact, it silently reaches out one of it's shimmering arms and slaps a sticky note with the crude drawing of a Fae's face onto the sackdoll. You notice a pink gem caged in gold peeking out from where its little arm had been. It sees you looking at its prize and quickly wraps around it once again, flashing you a distrustful glare before disappearing back into a starry sphere. The hatchling is practically bouncing with excitement. His feathers fluff with the jitters he can't contain. This is it, now his chance! "[b]Thwick ouw thweed[/b]!" he yells out through a mouthful of paper mask and preens with pride. He did it! You squint in confusion before deciphering his words to have been [i]trick or treat[/i]. You let out a small chuckle and smile down at the baby Bane. With his head held high, he waits patiently – although he does not know what for. All he knows is that he had done his part. And that after saying the three magic words [i]something[/i] would happen.
