Lightning flashes as you arrive in the shop. What once was a semi-peaceful house was now dim, foggy, and illuminated by strobe lights and jack-o-lanterns. The walls were plastered with fake spiderwebs, rubber bloody fingerprints, and plastic spiders. There were refreshments, though they didn't look as appetizing as they should have. Treats of all kinds shaped like vile things, dead rodents, and a large hand made of ice cooled the punch on the table. They even had eerie music playing in the background. It was just a nightmare of a place.

But then again... the fun hadn't even BEGUN...

+ No God Modding, you should know this one by now.
+ No killing. Yeah, you're allowed to scare the jeepers out of everyone, but no physical damage. At least no SERIOUS damage. You can trip and fall. Far be it from me to stop THAT. Just no... stabbing and such. That's just silly.
+ Get permission from the owners if you plan to do something major.
+ Follow general gaia guild rules.
+ No 1337
+ Keep things kid friendly. Yeah, I know. It sucks. Well, maybe not kid friendly so much as suggestive. Just don't get our guild banned is what I'm trying to say.
+ It's just a normal party until something happens so just feel free to mingle and have fun and eat, drink, and be merry!

Costume Contest -
When your character arrives, both owners and oneroi, tell what they are dressed as. It's best to provide a picture of an already existing costume, one you designed yourself, or even cosplay if you wish.

Costumes will be judged by all of you. When the time comes I will ask everyone to send your votes to Iria Cereus for your favorite costumes. You can judge them on best design, funniest concept (especially for who is wearing them), ect. It doesn't matter how you judge, just pick your favorite! Yes, you can vote for yourself. We don't judge... Well... Actually, we do, but.. You know what I mean!

Prize: Custom Item. You suggest an item you would like your oneroi to have and I will draw it for you. There will be limitations but we will cross that road when we get to it. We're pretty open about it so feel free to suggest what you want and we will discuss from there. Yes, magical items are acceptable within limitation.

Also, quick sketch art by Elwryn will be provided for the top three costumes and the overall winner also gets fully colored art in addition to the item.


Pumpkin Carving Contest -
Participants will take predrawn pumpkin I provide and edit it so that it looks like it has been carved into a jack-o-lantern. Art skills don't matter so much as content. Funny and spooky are wise for the judges enjoy those things, especially funny. I want someone who is creative and will take their time to make it look nice.

Prize: See below


Murder Mystery -
The main event of the party which will take up most of it and probably boil over past Halloween itself will be a murder mystery in which owners and oneroi alike will be forced to participate in.

Prize: MYSTERY

The point of this event is to test your skills! Not really, skill doesn't much matter in this. It's all got to do with how awesome and creative you are.

I will give you a drawing of a pumpkin and you must take said drawing and edit it so that it looks like it has been carved into a jack-o-lantern. It can be any design, in fact, that's where the contest lies. Make it spooky! Make it funny! We don't care! Just make it! The best three will win a prize! Use any of the three designs and enter as many times as you wish!

Prize Changed:
1st place - A pet for your oneroi of you choice, from turtle to a mythological animal. We will discuss these when they come. Be sure if it is a mythological animal it's power or background has something to do with your oneroi's element. For example, a dragon for Wren, the fire element. One of our staff will draw it to your specifications. And 10k.
2nd place - Free drawn item of your choice + 1k
3rd place - 5k

Pumpkin 2
Pumpkin 3

The Murder Mystery will start the 25th, five days into the party. Iria will announce the start of the party. The first victim will be taken, and then the guests will have the freedom to move about the shop collecting clues.

Clues will be given to certain oneroi through PMs from the staff for those who are close to them so that they remain secret only to them.

But what's this? A twist?

Something is going horribly wrong with this party! People are disappearing who shouldn't have, weird things are happening, and the staff did not plan it! Who is doing this and can they figure it out before everyone vanishes without a trace?

"Ah! Awesome. A day making this shop look like hell itself is a day well spent." Kemis said, putting on his awesome hat as he stepped back and observed the living room with pride. His costume the closest he could find to Clyde, Zooey being his Bonnie.

"Makes you feel at home, doesn't it?" Said Iria, sporting an adorable Little Red Riding Hood costume.

"Oh my!" Keiko walked in the living room, wearing her Tinkerbell costume. She held Konata in her arms and looked around. She almost instantly freaked out when she spotted one of the fake spiders. She sighed, realizing that she didn't have a date. Although bonding with her new little sister--the sister even her mother didn't know about-- would be a bit better..

She smiled at Iria, " I love your costume, Miss Iria!"


Konata still felt a bit lousy from her cold, but she couldn't miss the party. She placed her headband on to make her Haruhi Suzumiya costume perfect. She let her green eyes stare at the fake spiderwebs. "Spider?" She just tilted her head and squirmed a bit in Keiko's arms.

"Why, thank you, dear! You're costume is quite cute. Oh, don't let her eat those." Iria bit her lip in worry. Last thing we wanted was a bunch of choking toddlers. She tried to have Kemis put them above their reach but if Keiko was holding her, she didn't think of that.

"Make yourself comfortable while the others arrive. There's a bunch of snacks in the kitchen all ready for you to eat. Mind the pumpkins. We're carving them later."

"Are you insinuating that I find comfort in the underworld? Keiko, are you going to let her say things like that to me?" Kemis asked, just trying to get Keiko in the conversation.

Keiko nodded, noteing to keep a eye on Konata, she held Konata bit tighter but made sure she was comfortable. "Hm..?" She looked at Kemis, "Oh! Uhm.." She shrugged. "Well I don't know much about the underworld..or you, for that matter..."

"Come on kids, hurry up! This Hallowe'en party is gonna be fun with a capital F!"
Shining walked up the path to the store after having taken Leira and Jasper out so Iria and Kemis could set up the store for the party. She smoothed out the dress of her kitty costume before grinning at the two teens. The young woman had thought it would be a real hoot to dress up as a cat for an Oneroi party, but she hadn't thought it was so funny after Leira had professed her love for the costume. She opened the door and let out a scream as a fake spider dropped in her face.
"Oh my god! Give me a freakin' heart attack why don't you?"


Jasper chuckled and put a hand on his mother's shoulder guiding her into the store. He had chosen to come as Robin Hood, and adjusted his belt as he looked around the dim store.
"It's fake, mum, if you can't handle that, I don't know how you'll do later."


"I'll do fine! It was just surprising!"
Shining re-adjusted her ears, that had falled lopsided on her head.
"Come on Leira, show off your cute costume!"


Leira didn't even bother with a reply as she slid past the much taller Jasper into the store. She frowned, she wouldn't even be able to make herself scarce since the gold coins on her Fortune Teller skirt jangled whenever she moved an inch.
"At least it's believable, I used to work as a fortune teller at a circus. They're always so truthful."
Leira smirked and her tail twitched through the hole in her thick layered skirt.


"Hi everyone!"
Jasper grinned and wandered over to Keiko.
"Cute costume. What'll happen if I say I don't believe in fairies?

Sheldon walked in, a big grin plastered on his face as he came dressed up as Jack Sparrow. Nearly coming to laughing, he turned when he looked at Ginka. "Aw, c'mon! Don't be that way!" he said, stifling a giggle. "You look cute, come inside!" To even Ginka herself, she could not understand what lead her to actually put the costume on in the first place. Ginka trailed in, her hair not reaching the floor, but rather in tight curled green ringlets. She had dressed up into a Flower Maiden, not matter how much she damn hated it. What sickened her more not her poofy skirt, no not that, but how perfect her ringlets came out to be. How Sheldon seemed to earn such a talent, one would never know. Sheldon spouted as he pranced around. "So, where's the rum?" he questioned, though being serious. In truth, it was quite ironic he was asking such a thing dressed up like so. Ginka spurred with disgust as she went to go look for a place to sit down. Since she couldn't find anything, somewhere by the snack table was the best place. As she trailed over and sat amongst the floor, the skirt of her dress billowed up. Ginka sneezed and mashed the poofed end of her skirt down. "Stupid!" she exclaimed. Even for a girl who was as creepy as who knows what, she sure had a dislike of a holiday that fit her perfectly.
