[The Formal Gaian Masquerade] ~Lounge~[Join Our After Party]

[Draike Woode]

A masquerade is a place where people of all sorts can come together to converse. Status, wealth, power... None of it matters, because everyone is hidden. The only way to get to know each other is to converse. That is what this Longue is for. It's for Gaians of all shapes and sizes to come and talk freely. To enjoy themselves without being judged. When you are wearing a mask, you don't need to worry about judgment. Several contests and activities shall be going on throughout the event, so you may discuss them as well.

We're crashing the prom!

[Draike Woode]

Dear Masqueraders, we love you very much. Without you, this event would simply be a small group of prom-crashers in expensive fancy clothing. So, to express our gratitude, we have gathered a few lovely talents to provide you free and inexpensive avatar art to commemorate this momentous gathering. We hope to provide special party favors to a few lucky Masqueraders in memory of this event. Slots are limited, so what are you waiting for?



Rules
•Respect our artists. This goes without saying. Do not badger them about your commissioned art or act rudely because they denied your request.
•Artists have the right to refuse commissions at their discretion.
•Each artist will determine how many slots to open at a time on their own. If their slots are filled, be patient! You may still get a chance to order art from your favorite artist if you are lucky.

Because that was showcasing all our pre-prom stuff. Please don't argue with me on this.

I figured we could since he posted the links.

If Draike ends up needing that post, then I'll put whatever he needs there.
