A Charity Event


Dates Running:

July 6th - July 12th JULY 18TH

Introduction

And they all gathered together in the darkness, waiting for the party to start. The room was only dimly lit with candles, deep in the cores of pumpins, faces carved on their sides.

The decorations were anything but plain; cobwebs filled the room, paper bats hung from the ceiling. A skeleton to one side, holding a tray of sweets shaped like bats, pumpkins, and ghosts. Gothic tapestries that appeared to be centuries old, hung on the walls with thick silver cord, and eery music played.

The night they gather, not on October 31st, but in every way a twin of that day.

This is Halloween... Halloween in July!

OFFICIALLY OPENED ON PAGE 42!!

Goodies:

I will be giving away fangs (m and f) and glasses of blood (while supplies last)

He's just a little brought down because when you knocked
He thought you were the candyman."

Alexander Linden

An artist and writer that has way too much time on his hands. Linden enjoys Halloween more then any normal person should, and so has decided that he would host a Halloween party in the middle of the year. If the event is a success, he may just bring it back next year...

Hina

Ahaha. I'm actually going to write an about me, which isn't usually me.
xD
Hai thar, I'm Hina! :}
I live in Texas, United States.
I love bright colours and dark colors. D:
I love coffee & energy drinks!
I don't really know what to write in about mes, and birthday cards.
Seriously, I just write in them "I don't know what to write besides happy birthday o.o"
I started playing mene because a previous friend had got me to join. I joined and ran around the site for the halloween event. I played for a few days and dropped. I eventually picked it back up, as to why I'm here now!
Lets see.. I'm 5'5' and at the age of 15. I'm a sophomore in highschool && I'm very busy with it. D:
I love all of my friends && I don't dislike too many people. :}
I think that this is a pretty lengthy about me, considering I've never written one before. o_O
But, I do want to take a moment and tell you,
I Love Sam!
Septimus Christopher Gomulka -> He Completes me.
I know that soudns corny but, he does. We never fight. Ever. D: && He makes me so happy! And, just, gah. I love him so much. Even more then... idk. D: Just everything!
Okay, enough about me. D:

I'm an artist heart, I love art. I love to make art, and I love to receive art. Enough said. I listen to lots of music like most people and I like to read manga. My personal collection is well over 350 books and counting. My favorites are anything by author and artist, Kazuya Minekura. (Her best known is Saiyuki, though I enjoy Wild Adapter.) I'm a friendly person so feel free to say hello. I won't usually bite, I promise

Many events always have a lotto, and I decided that there would be one here too. I will make NO money off this. This means that ALL the gold received from the lotto will go to the winner(s)! You know how lottos work! You buy tickets, there is a drawing, and the winner(s) recieve their money!

Tickets are 10g (trades go to KOJIRO SEN)

Ticket numbers are given out as they are bought.
No more tickets sold after after 11:59pm EST on July 17th.

Total Pot: 0g

NO TICKETS WILL BE SOLD! OVER!

For many events, it is always fun to get a nice snapshot of yourself at the party! This event is no different! So if you want a snapshot of your best spooky outfit, make sure to buy some tickets to get a chance to win!


All tickets here are 15g a piece, and there will be THREE winners. That's right, three people will recieve custom art of their avatar dressed in their best spooky attire, so why don't you try your luck? (All artwork will be by Alexander Linden)
