A young blonde girl wearing a blue dress and a white apron wandered about, carrying a stuffed flamingo under her arm. She approached the Queen of Hearts and curtseyed, "Good evening, Your Majesty."
Among the dark foliage of one of the larger trees lurked a darker shadow, a stylized red bat upon its chest.

The queen of hearts let out a soft, pleased, laugh at Alice's appearance. "Careful with your head, sugar, don't want it chopped off any time soon."

Eulalia Danae Das Steube Eulalia Danae Catwoman recognized the mask fast enough. She smiled and walked over. "Always had a flair for eccentric style, hmm?" "Just because I am no longer a villain mastermind with an army of highly-trained, sociopathic supers at my call does not mean I lost my love for histrionics, my love." Xeen replied, his voice the only real recognizable part of his costume. Even hair and build had been altered. "Ever the villain at heart," Erica chuckled. "So am I really that easy to pinpoint? I was thinking it would at least take someone a few guesses before they knew it was me." He chuckled. "Not that obvious, love, however, I do know your voice when I hear it."

"Oh!" she exclaimed, her eyes widening in mock alarm. She held it for a moment before it dissolved in a merry laugh. "And I must also be careful of what I eat and drink, for I do not wish to become very large or very small."

In the tree, the shadow scanned the area, looking over each of the party-goers. Its gaze lingered over Catwoman for a moment.

Laurel Talbot "Oh!" she exclaimed, her eyes widening in mock alarm. She held it for a moment before it dissolved in a merry laugh. "And I must also be careful of what I eat and drink, for I do not wish to become very large or very small." "I can assure you, the food an' drink is all safe." The queen leaned back against her throne. "It's not nice to poison your guests."

Laurel Talbot In the tree, the shadow scanned the area, looking over each of the party-goers. Its gaze lingered over Catwoman for a moment. As The Greek Goddess was moving towards the fountain, Rainbow in tow, she spotted the shadowy figure in the trees, noted the gaze lingering on catwoman, and chuckled quietly. "Hold on a minute." She told Rainbow, then walked over to the figure. "Staring kind of hard aren't you? Come on, wall flower, join the party, water fountaining might be good for you too."

A figure with long, red hair entered the scene. He was dressed in a deep blue, darkening at the edges of the suit, giving noticeable outlines to it, casting him in a mock-shadow. His face was covered with a classic mask of the devil: deep red skin, twin horns sticking out, and a fearsome visage adorned. The figure wore a pair of black gloves, held taught to the skin.
With him entered one other, the two of them surrounding a third. The second one, on the other side of the middle-man, was dressed in a white vest, leaving his arms and chest bare, giving view to his muscular form. His pants were also white, and he wore no shoes. His mask was that of a hound, a generic, brown dog face, snout and all protruding. The mask covered his entire head, giving no view to anything above the neck.
The third man obviously had better places to be, as he made numerous attempts to sneak away, only to be grabbed by one of the other two. The man's pants were made from a thick material, with slits cut down the sides in various places. It was at least an inch thick at every point, and colored dark green. The material itself looked a mixture of leather and rubber. The pair of black boots he wore were bulky as well, wider than normal shoes should be, and made a resounding thud whenever he stepped, though he moved them with ease. On his top he wore a simple black t-shirt, and for a mask, a featureless black mask, no markings or holes.
The two surrounding the third muttered with the middle man, and it seemed as though he resigned to defeat, and the three of them entered together.

Arch the Angel A figure with long, red hair entered the scene. He was dressed in a deep blue, darkening at the edges of the suit, giving noticeable outlines to it, casting him in a mock-shadow. His face was covered with a classic mask of the devil: deep red skin, twin horns sticking out, and a fearsome visage adorned. The figure wore a pair of black gloves, held taught to the skin. With him entered one other, the two of them surrounding a third. The second one, on the other side of the middle-man, was dressed in a white vest, leaving his arms and chest bare, giving view to his muscular form. His pants were also white, and he wore no shoes. His mask was that of a hound, a generic, brown dog face, snout and all protruding. The mask covered his entire head, giving no view to anything above the neck.

The two surrounding the third muttered with the middle man, and it seemed as though he resigned to defeat, and the three of them entered together. The queen of hearts tilted her head slightly as she noticed the three enter. She rested her hand on the stone armrest of the throne, tightening her grip on it for a brief second, then let it go, as she caught herself giving a tell tale sign.

The greek goddess glanced at the new entries and chuckled, "Devil is never a good sign. Looks like the hounds are falling in too." The third one with blank mask had her raising her eyes briefly, then her smile widened as she took an inner guess at his identity.
The cloak and mask by the fountain, stumbled slightly until she reached a bench, and sat down, curled close into herself.
the Goddess noticed, and as she was collecting wall flowers so to speak, she decided to keep an eye on that one too.
With her blond hair trailing to the side, the tall woman in silver and black picked up a glass of punch, looked at it a moment, then poored the contents onto one of the rose bushes.

The second man, with the face of a hound, shoe-less and clad in white, approached the throne, kneeling.
"Hail be to the queen of the night." He said simply, in an unrecognizable voice, then stood and walked off, to mingle.
The devil man and the man with the black mask split up, mingling about in the party. The man with the black mask did not speak.
