This booth is cheerfully decorated with ribbons and cobwebs; on the counter sits a shadow drutten with a collar worn proudly around its neck. It guards the displays of minipet collars, Fear candy, and little printed booklets, and chirps as you approach, cheerful and welcoming. If Clove's mistress Obsidian isn't here at the moment, Clove is in charge of the booth, and it takes this responsibility quite seriously!

A few other minipets are hanging around behind the counter of the booth; a robocorn guards Siddie's chair, a wishing kupo is asleep on top of a stack of cardboard boxes, and from the evidence of a hovering collar, you can see that there's an invisible dog here too - though that's odd, it seems to have a nergal infection, and is thus somewhat more visible than most invisible dogs.

((OOC: This booth runs on GMT +1; it will be reset and token wins quoted at 9 PM (12:00 PM (noon) PST) daily, or some time close to this time.))

// Who's That Minipet?


There's a small literature stand on one side of the booth; it holds brochures with titles like Minipet Breeding Basics, Pamper your Pet: Making Your Own Fear Candy, Show Minis and the Creatures Who Love them, and Minipet Identification 101. Siddie sees you looking at the brochures and picks up a slip of paper, offering it to you with a smile. "This is today's mini - guess the right species from the description to win a special mini!"

There's a description on the paper and a space to write down the name of the type of mini you think it is. Siddie offers you a penstrictor to write down your guess with.

Quote:
Today's Who's That Minipet clue:

This stylish, long-eared mini has expensive tastes.


Prizes for Who's That Minipet: Drutten Shadow SE, Lost Key SE, Dark Charm SE, a random uncommon mini (chosen by Prolixity)

// Catch Me If You Can


Something brushes against your leg and barks as you stand next to the booth. You look down to find a green, spiky collar floating next to you, a nergal spike wagging behind it. However, if you bend down to pat the spot where you're pretty sure the invisible dog's head is, it barks again and bounces a few steps away. Maybe it wants to play tag?

Prizes for Catch Me If You Can: Invisible Dog Nergal SE, a random uncommon minipet (chosen by Prolixity)

((OOC: To play tag with the invisible dog, roll 2d20 and post a short RP post. The first number is the invisible dog's speed, the second is your speed. If your speed beats the invisible dog's speed, you caught it! You may play this game three times a day.

If you catch the invisible dog, please be sure to post your minisite SN and choice of prize, either Invisible Dog Nergal SE or a random uncommon mini.

Catch Me If You Can Winners:
Sept. 13 - GrnGriff (Invisible Dog Nergal SE), Marushii (Invisible Dog Nergal SE), Horticulturalist (Invisible Dog Nergal SE)
Sept. 14 - Huni Pi (Invisible Dog Nergal SE), Vashtya (Invisible Dog Nergal SE)

On the booth's counter is a large tray lined in black velvet; on the velvet, minipet collars of several different styles and multiple colors are laid out. The leather collars seem to be the fairly generic store-bought kind, but the ribbon and braided collars are probably handmade. There are little hand-lettered signs beside each style, detailing pricing and sizing; Siddie seems to have been very thorough about having a large selection of styles, colors, and sizes to fit any minipet.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.


Plain leather, silver fittings: red, orange, green, blue, purple, pink, black, white
Plain leather, gold fittings: red, orange, green, blue, purple, pink, black, white

Spiked leather, silver fittings: red, orange, green, blue, purple, pink, black, white
Spiked leather, gold fittings: red, orange, green, blue, purple, pink, black, white

Ribbon, plain: red, orange, green, blue, purple, pink, black, white
Ribbon, white lace: red, orange, green, blue, purple, pink, black, white
Ribbon, black lace: red, orange, green, blue, purple, pink, black, white

Braided, plain: red, orange, green, blue, purple, pink, black, white
Braided, multicolor: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6


A small sign rests on the table beside the display, explaining that for a small fee, Siddie can copy your personal emblem onto a tag for a minipet collar; it may take her a little while, but she'll have it ready for you by the end of the day! You can also request a new color for the ribbon or braided style of collars, and she'll add it to her stock.

A note has been added at the bottom of the sign, specifying that you don't have to worry about your personal emblem being misused; you don't actually have to give it to her. All you have to do is show her so she can take a picture with her eyePhone, and then she'll use the little printing machine behind the booth to print the image onto a charm for the collar.

Personalized collars (please don't take!): Merope, Lumikki, Thackery

((OOC: Collar images are free for the taking! They may be used in your Gaia journals, Halloween-related or otherwise. Please post a short RP post when picking one up~

To request a new color or color combination for ribbon or braided collar styles, quote Prolixity and bold the color request in your RP post. Color requests will be added to the generally available styles.

For an emblem collar, please quote Prolixity, bold the request in your RP post, specify gold or silver, and provide a link to the small .png image of your character's pin. You will be quoted with the personalized collar when it's ready. To prevent overload, I ask that you only request one emblem collar per player, please.))

A jar sits on one end of the booth, the kind of old-fashioned clay jar that Grandma kept her poisons in. If you peek inside, you'll see that it's filled with all kinds of different flavors of wrapped Fear candy. As you peek in, though, Clove scuttles up and drapes its body over the opening of the jar. The tag tied around the neck of the jar says "Take a candy," but it seems you're not supposed to look at what piece you're picking. The shadow drutten will let you reach under its tummy to get a candy, but don't tickle it, or you're likely to get a little warning n**.

((OOC: Three times a day, you may RP picking a piece of candy out of the jar and roll a d20. If you roll 11-20, congratulations - there's a small prize inside the wrapper rather than a candy! The first ten winning rolls per day will receive tokens; any further winning rolls will find a random minisite item. Post your minisite sn with your roll, please~

For non-winning rolls, you may consult the chart below to find out what flavor of Fear candy you picked if you'd like to RP it.

1 - Fresh Brains
2 - Green Tea*
3 - Hot Cinnamon
4 - Eyeball
5 - Dead Grass
6 - Milk
7 - Lavender Vanilla
8 - Fart Durian
9 - Sea Salt
10 - Rotten Fish Guts

*: Green Tea is Clove's favorite flavor of Fear candy. If you pick this flavor, the shadow drutten will get very excited and sit up and beg. If you'd like to kindly donate your candy to Clove, make a short RP post giving it to the drutten and quote Prolixity. Will this get you anything special? Maybe, maybe not. You'll find out.

Siddie's eyePod is set up behind the counter, hooked to a small speaker and playing a catchy little song.

Siddie finished setting out the last of the collars, took the lid off the jar of candy, and picked Clove up to cuddle it. "I'm going to take a quick look around," she told the drutten. "Mind the booth while I'm gone, and don't let these sillies make a mess! I'll be back soon."

She put Clove down on the table, brushed a bit of dust off her skirt, and moved off to investigate the nearby booths.

((Siddie's booth is OPEN~ ))

Rhiannon had been waiting for this booth to open. Walking over she looked over the brochures and picked up one titled 'Pamper your Pet: Making Your Own Fear Candy'. She looked up from the brochure at the voice and smiled as she took the piece of paper. She looked over the description and jotted down her answer, then handed the paper back.

Rhiannon found herself in front of the collars and picked up a purple black lace one. "This will look good on my phoenix scareon," she said happily paying the price.

Before leaving she stopped in front of the candy jar. "Pardon me," she said as she reached underneath the shadow drutten and grabbed a candy.

She pulled out a Cotton Candy flavored one and placed it in her pocket. "Thank you for the collar and candy."

Morifune drifted through the Fright Night booths, pausing as the velvet display of colorful colars caught his eye. Quirking a brow, he floated over and examined the selection, and decided it might be nice to pick up a couple for some of his pets. Namely the ones who had necks.

A minute of staring at the colors offered no insight into coordination or matching with pet colors, and so Mori settled on a black ribbon collar and a black-and-white woven one. And then, on a whim, the samurai selected one of the braided ones in shades of orange; this last one he threaded his hand through (much easier when he could make his hand half-intangible), and tightened around his wrist.

Once he'd paid, Mori stuck his arm out and jiggled his hand to adjust the pet collar-turnd bracelet. As he appraised the new adornment, another collar barked at Mori from in front of the booth. A floating empty collar. The ghost gaped for a moment at the absence of a dog, then shrugged and decided to take it up on its offer of tag ....

The invisible nergal dog took off at a run, and Mori leapt into action after it, letting his feet touch the ground for the chase instead of floating. The area was less than ideal for tag, though, with the multitude of other students and occasionally their pets around. Especially when his quarry was invisible. About fifteen seconds into the chase, the samurai slowed to a walk and huffed a sigh - the dog was nowhere in sight.

A booth about minipets huh? Glancing around, she picked up a few of the booklets displayed, flipping through them when she noticed a jar filled with candy. Intrigued, she was about to take one when a shadow drutten draped itself over the jar.

"Ah, so you're the guard mini huh?" She grinned. It looked like the drutten would still let her take one, so she dipped her hand in and pulled out a candy. But as soon as she took a bite, she grimaced, quickly walking away so she could spit out to offensive sweet.

"Dirt flavoured?!" She said incredulously. Okay, there were alot of things she would eat, but dirt was not one of them.

Minipet Appreciation? There was no way Draven could turn down a look at this booth!

Oh, what lovely little collars! He would have to get one for Pery. He looked them over and decided that a green braided one would be the best color on the peryton mini waiting back at his own booth. "These are quite nice," he said to the drutten that seemed to be watching the booth. He then checked the price, made certain he had enough to cover it, then traded the seeds for the collar. "I hope Pery likes it. I like it," he mused out loud.

He then turned to the end of the booth, where a jar sat. "Take a candy? Don't mind if I do," he said. He carefully slipped his hand under the drutten and pulled out the first candy he touched.

He wasn't able to tell what flavor he got just by looking at the wrapper, so he opened it with a curious look on his face. "Oh!" It wasn't a candy at all! Instead, he'd found a nice surprise. A token!

"I suppose I have you thank for that," he grinned at the shadow drutten.

((SN: GrnGriff
Won a token and taking a green braided collar. Thank you! <3))

He was still grinning when he felt something brush up against his leg. That something then barked. "Oh? Why hello, you," Draven said to what was obviously some kind of invisible dog. A nergal infected invisible dog? He'd never seen one of those before.

"Oh, so you want to play?" Draven thought that was what the creature wanted, between the way it barking and seeming to behave. One could never quite tell with invisible creatures. You just had to guess and hope for the best.

The dog ran for a few steps then stopped and barked again. At least that's what Draven though it did, judging by how much of it he could see. Yep. It wanted to play. Alright! Grinning, the raven mocker took a few exaggerated steps toward it, to gauge it's reaction.

It seemed a game of chase was in order. Though it was quite clear that the dog was a bit faster than Draven. He chased it around a bit, and utterly failed to catch it.

But Draven was not one to give up easily. As long as he was having fun, and the mini was having fun, why not play? So, he chased that little invisible dog around some more. There wasn't too much flat out running involved, a bit, with a lot of zig-zag turns thrown in.

This way, that way, over there! It seemed to Draven that the dog was quite energetic. He was, however, quite glad that he could keep an eye on it at all, thanks to that tail.

They ran around for several minutes, and then, during one zig-zag turn, Draven reached out and was mildly surprised to realized he'd caught hold of the friendly little mini. "Ha! Caught you!" he laughed, finding it's ears so he could scratch behind them. "Quite the chase you led me on! Thanks. I needed a good run."

Danny thought about what the minipet could be that the paper was describing. He could really only think of one pet whose mouth he wanted to avoid like that. The stuff WAS horrible to get off once he had come in contact with it. He shuttered. That was why he liked clean pets. He wrote down his answer and handed it in.
