Forum Gala 2022

[lass of something much]

#Rally

@Russa Nodrey our time has come.. Have you the costume?

*Drags a large box in* Behold.

I have beheld, and surely I am blessed

[Rillbrook the Wanderer]

Hi! 

Thanks, *grabs a wine glass and fills it with pickle juice.* *turns the pickle juice dark red* tasty.

Nope, not many ideas, except...wadaminit. A handsome rugged otter in hiking attire with a guitar?

But this is a party! Shouldn't I be wearing something... fancy?

[Ally046]

Hmmmm...then why not a tux instead of a costume? (I don't think they're the same thing...)

[Rillbrook the Wanderer]

(whether its a costume or not depends on the person wearing it )
Great idea! I'll be right back...
*Runs up the steps to the second floor of the allegedly haunted manor where suits might be stored*

[Ally046]

Ehhh, careful!

[Rillbrook the Wanderer]

I'll be fine It's only allegedly haunted
*Continues up the stairs and turn right. Walks down a hall until a door is found that is unlocked*
Creeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek
*Goes the door, and then Rill opens it and steps inside*

[Kade Rivok]

*Continues his hunt for ghosts, along with the helpful floating lantern that certainly isn't ghostly.*

[Verdauga]

*Continues up the stairs and turn right. Walks down a hall until a door is found that is unlocked*
Creeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek
*Goes the door, and then Rill opens it and steps inside*

*The evening sun faintly lights the room, illuminating a single wardrobe. Dust stirs in the air as the draft from the hall joins Rillbrook in the chamber*

*Continues his hunt for ghosts, along with the helpful floating lantern that certainly isn't ghostly.*

*Under the base of the lantern, an LCD screen displays 'lantern drone 17134: maintenance required.'*
*Around a bend near Kade, a wooden door engraved with flowers and vines stands in the wall, pushed out into the corridor by something within.*

Hmm... Why does this wardrobe seem so familiar?
*Opens the wardrobe cautiously, but only sees some old coats*
Maybe there's one in the back...
*Steps inside and feels a faint chill coming from deeper in the closet. Is about to check it out, but finds an amazing
satin tux on the floor (along with a few pine needles) and forgets about it, remembering the gala down stairs*
*Comes back down wearing the tux*

[Verdauga]

*A skeletal claw reaches out and pulls the door closed after Rill leaves the room*

*Sees Rill re-entering the Grand Hall* Oh, nice tuxedo!

[Kade Rivok]

*Around a bend near Kade, a wooden door engraved with flowers and vines stands in the wall, pushed out into the corridor by something within.*

*Comes across the open door and peeks inside.*  Hello?  Any ghosts, ghouls, or other grisly beings in here?

[Verdauga]

 *Kade sees the garden, with giant flowers and trees reaching to the higher floors of the manor, and several vines stretching from planter to planter.*

*Despite the walls to the sides (and far in the distance) a wind whips around the flora, bringing a chill to the air.*

[Kade Rivok]

*Proceeds into the garden cautiously, looking for ghost signs.*  Thanks for being with me, floating lantern.  You're my only companion in these dark times.

[Verdauga]

*The flame flickers happily.*

*A bush rustles off to Kade's right*

[Rillbrook the Wanderer]

*A skeletal claw reaches out and pulls the door closed after Rill leaves the room*

*Sees Rill re-entering the Grand Hall* Oh, nice tuxedo!

Thanks! ^_^ I found it upstairs in a strange wardrobe upstairs. Everything else in there was very old and dusty but this was perfectly fine. There wasn't even dust on it.
Wait a second...
