As you walk through Bloodfest, you find yourself at a booth with lots of tables and bags. A cheerful greenblood greets you with a "Oh hello! If you want to play, grab a bag from the counter!" Tons of carefully wrapped bags line the counter with colorful ribbons. "You can use stuff from those boxes outside of the game if you like~" The greenblooded boy smiles and motions to a couple of boxes full of scraps of cloth, buttons and other assorted junk. A television blares in the corner with a few trolls lazing in the bean bag chairs watching reruns of Project Runway's latest season while others work hard sewing together tiny dresses and stockings. The troll manning the booth introduces himself as Amonee Brycer and tells you to let him know if you need anything before hurrying off to greet the next visitor.
Once you take a bag from the counter, you are ushered to a crafting table to begin your greatest challenge- to produce Alternia's Next Top Mo-doll!

Not everyone chooses to be a fashion designer but why not play one for a night? Visitors pick a grab bag of random materials to design an outfit for a doll. There will be panel of judges to decide the top three looks of the day, (the three top looks are the 3 ticket winners of the day) including Lorata Gorgos, Autumn Vikare and Amonee Brycer! Prizes include a free doll for participating (your model), any leftover materials from your daily attempt and a chance at artwork from Amonee if he likes your design.
Every day is a new round. There are no eliminations in this competition unlike the reality shows, everyone can play in every round if they like! All players roll 4 d20 to see what materials you got from your grab bag to work with! Tools such as needles, thread and hot glue guns are available at workstations for all. You can assume the materials are whatever color you'd like them to be. You must make an RP post of at least 100 words with your roll to be considered for the daily judging. If drawing a sketch is easier, please feel free to post that instead of a written description! The 100 words requirement has been lifted but you must include some kind of description of what your troll makes! Please try to have your posts filled before midnight if you can. The rollover is pretty lax and I'm willing to wait a little late for last minute additions but try to do your best! Unfilled posts with only a roll will be treated as a contestant not finishing in time and will be disqualified for that round. The cutoff is 11:59pm PDT.
The judges will choose the winners based on creativity, marketability and star quality. Is the look something they haven't seen before? Is it something that other trolls might like or buy? And does it have that WOW factor that draws you to it? There will be honorable mentions and awards for trolls that do not win but impress the judges in other ways!
Prizes: This booth hands out dolls for participants to use in their fashion challenges! Feel free to take home the various dolls you use, there is no limit. More will be added throughout the event as they are completed. Amonee is more than happy supply materials to make custom dolls as people like! (Basically, contact me and if I have time, I can try and make a bobblehead for you!)

Dress Up: This game requires no dice rolling or materials won. All you have to do is pixel an outfit onto one of these bobbleheads! Whoever makes the most creative, funniest and chicest will win art of their troll in whatever fashion outfit they choose (within the extent of my artistic ability haha)! So that's three winners! The bobblehead based will be available all week and the turn in is at the end of the week. If you would like to submit your own dolls for others to use for this challenge, just PM me the image! Please keep them at the original scale provided by ami in order to make pixeling on them easier. You can blow them up to 200% at the end for turn in!
DEADLINE IS: MAY 15th

PRP: Other than the daily mini game, there is still plenty to do around the booth. There is a small corner of the booth with beanbags and cushions arranged around a crummy portable television. It is constantly playing seasons of Project Runway in the background and works as a place to hang out or just laze on the beanbags. Remember that napping without sopor slime will lead to horrific nightmares but you're still more than welcome to rest your eyes if your troll is completely exhausted after a long night of Bloodfest!
Additionally, you may RP making various arts and crafts from the materials listed in the material list. Your troll can access whatever they like outside of the doll fashion challenge and Amonee urges you to make friendship bracelets, hair accessories and whatever else you can cook up. This can be done in thread or in a PRP with someone else, Amonee doesn't have to be there to hand out stuff.
Natash was feeling very bubbly! More bubbly and excited than usual! Maybe it was from the coffee booth, but either way! Gnash was ready to play, and the first booth that caught her eye was this fun dress up/craft booth.
All she had to do was make an outfit based on some theme, and it just so happened Gnash loved the theme of the day! Desserts were basically the very best, because they often were very red and pink and those were good colors that were very pretty. She picked up the seadweller bobblehead because she looked like the prettiest one, and the most like her! Seadweller friends. Gnash wrapped the tinfoil and cotton cloth in strips around the bobblehead's legs and body and started gluing the fake fur around her neck. It would kind of look like ice cream, Gnash thought, and put some shredded feathers glued to cotton strips on the head like sprinkles on a headband. Beautiful, really.
A modeling booth?! Oh yes! Kei remembered the bloodfest of last year and her... miserable... appearance on stage. Yet, she also remembered it fondly. It hadn't been... horrible. Over much.
And besides this one was with dolls. She smiled at the seadweller - there was no point to being afraid of them - and started fabricating something out of the fabric that she had.
Cotton and leather - good for underneath. Cotton first, to provide wicking and padding, leather for added protection. This was a heroic outfit, fit for a hero like herself, pasted onto a doll that looked...
Too much like her. Hmm. Maybe she shouldn't have gone with the redblood. But what else could she go with? There were no orange models, and none were really...
Wait. Was that... Cerpin? Hmm... Kei had an idea in mind, now.
But she also had a doll to finish. She added the fiber optics - a wig or a head wrap, perhaps, sparkly and ethereal? Or not? Kei wasn't sure, but it looked interesting. The tinfoil, of course, served as the final, shiny sparkly armor.
She was so absorbed in her crafting, that she completely forgot there was a theme... until the last scrap of foil was added. "Oh damn..." she cursed, frowning. Dessert. How did she turn this into a dessert? She had a hero, not a dessert...
Maybe... Ah! The wrap! She grabbed the doll and stared. Yes! That was perfect! She stuck a red cotton puff on top - a cherry on a shimmery sundae - and called it a day. "Here." she presented the doll, taking a moment to admire the seadwellers ice cream-reminiscent design. Vaguely ice cream reminiscent design - feathers were not normally involved in ice cream. "Tis a sundae." she declared, "A, ah, battle sundae." She wrote Xionek's name on the submission sheet, "I hope thou likest."
"So I'm making a dessert out of this stuff?" Nucleo blinked as Amonee laughed and re-explained the rules to him. Looking at the pile of available materials, Nucleo scratched his head and tried to think of what he could make that would involve sandpaper. Something dry? No too literal.
Wait, he knew exactly what to do!
Attempting to sew the cashmere to the sandpaper, he looked crazy but it was his vision! Cutting strips of the fabrics, he started sewing the strips into a layered dress. Once that was done, he used the leftover sandpaper to make a little hate for the doll by curling it and taping it shut. The boy used a thin strip of satin to give the hat an extra detail. It was all perfect but wait- the tinfoil! What to do with that? The only shiny thing that would make sense was... YES!
Painstakingly, Nucleo crafted a small fork from the tinfolk and poked it down into the top of the hat! Now it was perfect!
"Dessert is served! How would you like some tiramisu?"
The moment Austri saw Lorata in this booth, the greenblood's comfortable happy smile returned, offering her an overly friendly wave in her direction before her eyes fell on her company. Was that yellow? Lorata couldn't help but quirk an eyebrow, eyes darting back and forth from the purpleblood and the yellowblood in slight suspicion. Maybe it was blackmail? Or, maybe the yellowblood was friends with the other greenblood. Or she was using her... Ugh, lowbloods, of course. Suppressing a roll of her eyes, the greenblood moved on to work on an outfit grabbing the white cashmere and carefully pinching it and positioning it to look like ruffles, grabbing slight amounts of paint and dabbing the edges to give it a nice view. She adjusted the hipskirt and placed some artistically placed brown pipe cleaners in the doll's hair, along with some rhinestones upon the top part of the dress. Jeweled buttons were used for the clasps, and then, it was done. Austri beamed in pride-- Of course it looked amazing. She was amazing, after all.
Azrael almost cautiously walked up to the booth. He had decided to visit all the trolls he knew first before getting his hands dirty in other events. Amonee was no exception. Actually, he'd somewhat put off Amonee's booth specifically because of the gut wrenching reaction that the blueblood seemed to get from his greenblooded friend. However, now was not a time for getting shy. So, he plucked up his courage and decided to participate, it was a chance to test his creativity. "Hey, Amonee, It's a pretty nice evening right? Mind if I-- umm... " he gestured to the designer table after a moment of awkward fidgeting he took too gathering his materials..
The judges step aside to deliberate over the various designs. It looks to be a heated discussion but eventually return to place the top looks on their pedestals!

Rollover!
The next night, Amonee appears out of breath and frantic. He drops a box onto the counter and reveals a batch of new dolls!
(Green did this on time, I just forgot to put it in and beg for forgiveness, bless the holy Green)
"Sorry I'm late! I forgot a box back in Busthind and had to go back and get it. Anyways, here is your next challenge!" The jadeblood unveils the challenge whiteboard with the next theme for any interested designers.
NEW THEME: CRIMINALS
*as a note, a sketch is acceptable for a design if that is easier than writing out 100 words. This rule change is effective from here to the end of Bloodfest. It also lets you include a design even if you don't want to RP out finishing the garment.
