🎃 HALLOWEEN MINGLE 🎃

You are cordially invited to Cisco and Winn's Not-Too-Terrifying Halloween Costume Party!


Who: everyone ( yes, you too!)
Broadcast: N/A
Action: aboard the Iskaulit!
When: current



[ on the night of the 28th, the lecture hall will open its gates though it'll look remarkably different. Winn and Cisco would have decorated the corridors leading to it with Jack-o'-lanterns made from the pumpkins gathered at the little patch on the planet. The hall itself will be similarly decorated, along with other traditional scary Halloween decorations made from paper and fabric ( don't ruin the little paper spiders, they took hours to make! ). There will be music from various times of Earth-1 and Earth-3, so don't be surprised to find Lady Gaga playing alongside the Spice Girls! Feel free to make requests or otherwise, just show your skills on the dance floor!

There will be a bar run by Nami offering free sodas, though you'll have to pay for your own alcohol ( remember, don't drink and fly! ). Alongside the bar, characters will find a few tables offering candy from Earth-1 won by Cisco at the game room with a little sign reading TAKE ONE, LEAVE SOME FOR OTHERS and quite a lot of space chips and protein dips as well as various candy from all over the different planets ( cleverly hoarded by Winn! ) and a large selection of pumpkin pies and pumpkin treats. Characters will also find a line leading to Cisco's trusty ice cream machine, though it'll only offer peanut butter flavored sorbet.

At the corner of the hall there will be a karaoke machine with a little sign-up sheet. Characters could sign up solo or in groups and list the song they'd like to sing. Keep in mind though, the entire hall will be able to hear your rendition of Sexy and I Know it!

Adventure-seeking characters will be able to follow signs reading HAUNTED HOUSE and reach a large hall that was turned into a maze by large cardboard blocks painted black or covered by dark fabrics. Making it out of the maze won't be too hard and the maze itself won't be too frightening but will be mildly startling. It'll include some nifty engineered animatronics of witches, scarecrows, scary clowns and skeletons as well as holograms of ghosts! The song featured in the invitation will also be heard here, on repeat. It's a good break from the dancing and for some private conversations and moments.

Remember, costume are mandatory! you don't want to be caught by tonight's pumpkin kings, do you? ]

[ winn, in his glorious flash suit, clinks his beer bottle against her glass, and replies with his best most exaggerated pirate voice (he may be a little tipsy himself) ]

Yarrr, pirates don't follow no rules, lassie, we drink what we's wants!

[A giggle bursts from her at his pirate impersonation.]

This be true.

[She can't stop laughing.]

But I have to ask, matey: what are you supposed to be?

[ yes, laughter! he wins! keeping in pirate character ]

Don't tell me you never heard o' the fearsome superhero, the Flash! Ohh, even Blackbeard be quacking in his boots when he comes a callin'.

[Well, most of what he said just flew over her head.]

Arr, no. Not sure what a superhero or a Flash is. [A pause.] Or Blackbeard, for that matter.

[Thedas is lacking superheroes on the ground, sadly.]

[ the look of horror and heartbreak on his face!! ]

You don't have superheroes? [ he is so sad for her right now. ] Superheroes are awesome, they're people who dedicate their lives to fighting crime and the forces of evil. They usually have extraordinary powers - but that's not a must - what makes them super is their willingness to over and over stand between people and danger, do whatever it takes, be beacons of hope in the world -- and the Flash is a superhero who has super speed.

[Riona listens attentively. These prerequisites for superheroism are familiar to her, just not quite in the way this man seems to know them as.]

Well, we have mages who have magic, and can do amazing things with it. Sadly, most don't get to be heroes of any sort. But we have those who are dedicated to what you described. The Grey Wardens come to mind, and some are even mages, but... I suspect it's not quite what you're describing.

Why, what are they like?

[ sorry riona, you've hit upon one of his favorite topics ever - he could stay on it for the rest of the night. ]

They are an order dedicated to fighting darkspawn and the Blight. During the Blight, they're heroes, and they're the line of defense against the darkspawn and the Archdemon. But in between Blights, well, as they, the Wardens are the first ones forgotten.
