You have been given an extraordinary, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
You've been chosen to travel to a place rarely seen by human eyes, the Mystical Land of Elves. Here you will receive seven unique gifts, especially made for you!
After the Great Toy Mishap of 1603, the Law of Elf Magic states that all presents can only be made by at least two elves, and, lucky lucky, each day you get to choose the two who will make your gift.
But be mindful, personalities can clash, and some elf pairings work better than others.

If you think the game looks difficult, fret not. It's as easy as can be.
So easy a child could participate... or a ferret with above-average intelligence.
Each day you will be introduced to nine different elves. Your task is to choose two of these elves to make your gift.
Depending on the pairing, you could have a very happy holiday!
Or just end up with some disgruntled elves.
STEP-BY-STEP HOW TO:
1. Choose 2 elves.
2. Copy and paste the provided form. Fill it out and post in this thread.
3. Wait until the next round to see how you've faired. Each round will end and a new one will begin at 8PM Pacific. [Click for Current Pacific Time]
4. Rinse and repeat! o3o
Only one account per person may play. Sorry, no mules.
The exception being staff approved charity mules, who may play for their charities.
Q. I'd like to change one or both of my elves. Can I do that?
A. You might make your original two elves sad, but sure, you can do that. Just post the form again with your new picks and be sure to say that you're choosing new elves. Otherwise I might think you accidentally posted the form twice.
Q. Say, what kind of goodies can I expect?
A. Items and gold, as usual. But this time there will also be a raffle, and you have the possibility of earning tickets.
Q. I missed the first day. Can I still pway? Pwease. *puppy dog eyes*
A. Of course, Princess! Jump in any time you like.
Q. Are children and ferrets with above-average intelligence allowed to participate?
A. No, sorry. They were only used as an example.

[B]Third Elf[/B]:
[/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR]
Gemo + Grink
While working, Gemo and Grink revealed to each other that both were employing a pseudonym. Gemo’s real name, he explained, is ♥♪!? (Don’t even try to pronounce that.) And Grink said his was… But before he could get the name out, he was taken away by the Theodor Geisel estate for copyright violation.
Gemo + Yoyo
Gemo, the wooden elf, has a strong sense of duty and responsibility. He likes to get the job done right and on time. This is at odds with Yoyo, who likes nothing more than to play and fool around. Definitely a mismatched pair.
Izotz + Oreyn
Oreyn, the woodland elf, is used to roughin’ it in the outdoors. But he’s certainly not used to the icy conditions of Izotz’s home. After only ten minutes of freezing his leaves off, he had to retreat back to his forest.
Izotz + Snoozy = Theater of Dreams
Izotz + Finbar = Viola Faerie Gown
Izotz + Vlad
Izotz, the wintry elf, can come off a little… well, frigid. He doesn’t have too many close relationships with other elves. But in Vlad he finds a kindred spirit. Both are cold to the touch. Both avoid the sun. They should have been working, but spent the day instead outside having fun and making bat angels.
Grink + Yoyo = Beaglepuss
Grink + Cherry
Grink, the big-hearted elf, had changed his ways and was now eager to make presents this day. And what delights they would give to the girls and boys, when they’d all rush down to find their toys! Floofloovers and tartookas! Whohoopers and gardookas! Spinning trumtookas and slamming slooslunkas! Beating blumbloopas and whamming whowonkas! … The confusion addled poor Cherry’s head and was forced to retire to his bed.
Grink + Vlad – Heart Pillbox Hat – Red, Frozen, Gold, Black
Yoyo + Cherry = +1 Raffle Ticket
Yoyo + Oreyn = Nature’s Imp
Yoyo + Snoozy
As one can imagine, Snoozy, the slumbering elf, has a tendency to fall asleep throughout the day, even during work. Most elves are good enough to wake him up when this happens. Yoyo isn’t most elves. The trickster was just having too much fun drawing on Snoozy’s face.
Yoyo + Finbar
Yoyo, the mischievous elf, loves playing pranks. And so he planned to pull one over on Finbar by bringing him a Guinness laced with hot sauce. But Finbar ruined the joke by stating that he doesn’t drink. Yoyo was furious. “All Irish elves drink!” Finbar called that a gross stereotype, then threw a potato at Yoyo and hit him with his shillelagh.
Yoyo + Vlad = 2500g
Cherry + Oreyn = Nature Skirt & Top of Artemis – Nature Top and Cerise Pants of Tapio
Cherry + Snoozy = +1 Raffle Ticket
Cherry + Finbar
Cherry, the juicy elf, skipped along to meet his partner for the day. “Oh good, you’re here,” Finbar smiled, “you can help me out.” Cherry was more than happy to accommodate. But what was the task? – He soon learned it was rounding up all the snakes on the property. And Cherry spent the rest of the afternoon hiding up a tree.
Cherry + Vlad = Valentina Black Cherry Skirt & Frill Top – Valentino Black Cherry Vest & Shorts
Oreyn + Snoozy
Oreyn brought Snoozy up to his tree house workshop to collaborate on their gift. Everything started off well, but while Oreyn’s back was turned, Snoozy fell asleep and dropped out of the tree. He hit the ground and rolled off into the woods. It took Oreyn the rest of the day to find him.
Oreyn + Finbar = Lucky Wings
Oreyn + Vlad = 1000g
Snoozy + Finbar = 3500g
Snoozy + Vlad = Kiss of Darkness
Finbar + Vlad
Vlad, the blood-sucking elf, just can’t resist the allure a fair-skinned neck. And none is more fair than Finbar. But Finbar is the lucky elf, and each of Vlad’s attempts to sink his fangs into that juicy jugular is duly thwarted. Eventually the sun threatened to rise, and Vlad returned home to his castle, dejected.
Buddy + Peanut
Buddy thought Peanut’s name was “Pee Nut”, and laughed at his yellow attire. Peanut didn’t take kindly to this and walked off.
Buddy + Pogo = Folklorico Skirt - Formal
Buddy + Herald
Herald waited, but his partner never showed up for work. Buddy had crammed 11 cookies into the VCR and was trying to get them out.
Buddy + Sprinkles = The Cuppy Cake Clan
Kingsley + Grape
Kingsley got a hold of some bad eggnog and began to hallucinate. Then he tried to juice Grape, causing his purple pal to flee.
Kingsley + Ori = Winter Wonderland
Kingsley + Jingles = 750g
Kingsley + Peanut = Maria Dress – Nutcracker
Kingsley + Pogo
To his detriment, Pogo has a very active social life and spends most of his time texting, which Kingsley felt was the height of unprofessionalism. Eventually his patience wore thin and Kingsley went home.

Kingsley + Sprinkles = +1 Raffle Ticket
Grape + Ori = 500g
Grape + Jingles = +1 Raffle Ticket
Grape + Peanut = Cornucopia
Grape + Pogo = Lavender Flower Basket

Ori + Peanut
Unfortunately, Ori has a severe Peanut allergy and can’t be in the same room with him.
Ori + Pogo = 100g
Ori + Herald = Hanukkah Cape
Ori + Sprinkles
Ori and Sprinkles partnership has been temporarily halted until we know if Sprinkles is kosher or not.
Jingles + Peanut = +1 Raffle Ticket
Jingles + Pogo
Jingles and Pogo, both jolly elves, got into a shoving match over who in fact is the jolliest. The ensuing fight landed both in the Elf ER.
Jingles + Herald = Garlands Celebrations
Jingles + Sprinkles = 200g
Peanut + Pogo = 1000g
Peanut + Herald = +1 Raffle Ticket
Peanut + Sprinkles = Sugarplum Sprinkles Jacket
Pogo + Herald
Pogo got really sick of Herald constantly singing “Hark!” and told ‘im to shove a candy cane where the sun don’t shine.
Pogo + Sprinkles = Candy-Man
Herald + Sprinkles = Vanilla and Chocolate Sprinkles Hat
Keebler + Sam
What we have here is a conflict of interest. Sam, being affiliated with the Girls Scouts, claimed their cookies are better. And Keebler retorted by saying that the scouts are, and I quote, “heathenish little she devils”. The following scuffle was heard throughout the hollow tree.
Keebler + Jack
Keebler became frustrated with Jack after continuously being asked why all his cookies weren’t pumpkin flavored. But it’s only when Jack began dumping candy into the cookie batches that Keebler blew his top.
Dinkle + Jack
Dinkle, a cautious elf, was wary about meeting his partner in a cemetery late at night. And when Jack jumped out from behind a tombstone and shouted ‘BOO’, Dinkle screamed and ran back to his cottage.
Dinkle + Silas
Dinkle was already afraid of Silas, but the scary elf seemed to be in a particularly bad mood today. All he could do was stare awkwardly until Silas said, “What are you looking at?!” And then Dinkle fainted.
Apple + Sam = Noelle Skirt – Navy & Noelle Hair Bow – Green
Apple + Ellory = 500g
Apple + Wegowas = Season’s Bounty

Apple and Tinsel were scheduled to work on their present, but spent the afternoon betting on who was better at rolling down the hill. Apple won.
Apple + Jack = 1500g
Apple + Silas = Sour Apple Topper
Sam + Ellory
Sam, a boisterous elf, announced his arrival by lighting fireworks. This didn’t sit well with quiet-loving Ellory, who shook his cane at Sam, and then went back home to watch Matlock.
Sam + Wegowas = +1 Raffle Ticket
Sam + Tinsel = Kick Ass Action Hero
Sam + Jack = 250g
Sam + Silas = Skull Hoodie – Red M&F
Ellory + Wegowas
Ellory tried to play the age card, but Wegowas explained that he was actually much older. Ellory laughed this off and gave the handsome elf a piece of hard candy. He then went into a long drawn out story about the olden days. Wegowas fell asleep.
Ellory + Tinsel= +1 Raffle Ticket
Ellory + Jack = Pumpkin Patch
Ellory + Silas = Opulent Cane - Plum
Wegowas + Tinsel = Bernice’s Hair
Wegowas + Jack
Wegowas said he couldn’t work that day. He needed to stock up on hair care products. But Jack explained that pumpkins, being rich in vitamin A and potassium, are great for hair. So they spent the rest of the day making pumpkin shampoo.
Wegowas + Silas = 1000g
Tinsel + Jack = +1 Raffle Ticket
Tinsel + Silas = Dea Sparkle Long Skirt - Blackberry
Walter + Sunny
Sunny, a dazzling elf, brightens up the room where ever he goes. But grumpy Walter took one look at him and said, “Turn off those lights! You’re wasting electricity!” Sunny tried to explain, but Walter had already left for bingo.
Walter + Ulrich = Lil’ Red and Big Meanie
Walter + Snowflake = +1 Raffle Ticket
Walter + Oliver = Chained Kilt & Tartan Chained Kilt - Oak
Walter + Victor = Heart Buddy – Chocolate & Pink
Walter + Queasy = Improper Long Plaid Skirt - Green
Walter + Cranberry
The usually cranky Walter was oddly pleased to see Cranberry. “Cranberries are good for the bladder,” he explained, and then began to tell the tale of his last urinary tract infection. – Afterward, Cranberry just wasn’t in the mood to make presents.
Walter + Bernard = 1000g
Sunny + Ulrich= Nutcracker Black Hat & Nutcracker Scarlet and Black Jacket
Sunny + Snowflake
Snowflake, cool all the way through, was eager to work with Sunny. But being around the shining elf got him too hot and bothered.
Sunny + Oliver = 2000g
Sunny + Victor = Sexy Heart Lantern
Sunny + Queasy = +1 Raffle Ticket
Sunny + Cranberry = Sun Skirt & Pectoral and Shawl - Sun
Sunny + Bernard = +1 Raffle Ticket
Ulrich + Snowflake = +1 Raffle Ticket
Ulrich + Oliver = Templar’s Hawk
Ulrich + Victor = 750g
Ulrich + Queasy
Queasy, a sickly elf, has a rather tender tummy, as one can imagine. So when Ulrich greeted him with a feast of bratwurst, sauerkraut, wiener schnitzel and other Germanic food stuffs, Queasy’s stomach just couldn’t take it.
Ulrich + Cranberry
Before getting to work, Ulrich offered his guest a drink. “Juice, if you have it.” Cranberry smiled. But was instead brought a tankard of spiced German ale. The tart little elf wasn’t accustomed to such beverages and shortly thereafter passed out on Ulrich’s couch.
Ulrich + Bernard = Teddy Bear & Panda Plushie
Snowflake + Oliver = Scarved Snowman Pal - Purple
Snowflake + Victor
Snowflake and Victor hadn’t even begun to make their gift, before they were discussing what sort of design it should be wrapped in. One wanted snowflakes, the other hearts. They eventually decided to combine the two, but then argued if they should call them ‘hoflakes’ or ‘shearts’.
Snowflake + Queasy = Snow Flakes
Snowflake + Cranberry = 1500g
Snowflake + Bernard = My Pet Chilly
Oliver + Victor = +1 Raffle Ticket
Oliver + Queasy = YOLO! LULZ… mommy T_T
Oliver + Cranberry = 500g
Oliver + Bernard
Oliver, the strange elf, took one look at Bernard and proclaimed, “A wolf!” – “I’m actually a bear,” the ursine elf corrected, but Oliver was too excited to listen. “I once knew a Wolf. I think we’re going to be beeeehhst friends!” It was then that Bernard realized he’d left the iron on back home.
Victor + Queasy
Queasy gave it the old college try and attempted to keep himself together. “What kind of present should we make?” He asked. Victor’s eyes brightened, “Oh, it should be pink and pretty and have hearts and bunnies and should be chock full of LOVE!” … And then Queasy barfed.
[CENTER][FONT="Georgia"][SIZE="3"] Strawberry + Ramio
Strawberry, the sweet elf, politely introduced himself. Ramio laughed, explaining that the name reminded him of his friend Peach. Overhearing this, Strawberry was then kidnapped my Ramio’s arch-nemesis, Wobser.
Strawberry + Imari = Cozy Up For Winter
Strawberry + Caspian
Caspian, the ocean elf, lives in an underwater grotto. Strawberry attempted to dive down to visit him, but was far too buoyant.
Ramio + Zian

Imari + Caspian = Lena Gown - Water
Imari + Masaki = Sexy Corset - Sky, Black & Spring– Olympic Briefs – Black, Water & Green

Nibblet, the corny elf, met with Imari to work. Imari commented that in certain celebrations corn represents children, and that it’s everyone’s responsibility to make sure they’re raised right. Nibblet was elated. “Does that mean you’re my daddy?!” – “What? N..no,” Imari stammered, “it’s merely a symbol of…” But Nibblet jumped into his arms and asked for an allowance.
Caspian + Masaki = Lost Shrine of Naias
Caspian + Zian = +1 Raffle Ticket
Caspian + Happy
Happy, the bubbly elf, is usually in the highest spirits, but at the time was looking a little down. Caspian asked what was wrong. Turns out Happy and Bernard were supposed to look for Captain Cook’s treasure, but the bear elf was busy. So Caspian offered to go with him, and the two spent the rest of the day searching.
Masaki + Grimm
Masaki, the lascivious elf, was highly intrigued by Grimm’s strong and stoic presence. But it was then he noticed that Grimm had no skin. This depressed Masaki, and he retreated to the local elven bathhouse.
Happy + Grimm
Grimm, the boney elf, can be a little intimidating, but Happy was determined to make sure their time together was a positive experience. He introduced Grimm to his woodland friends and invited him to pet them. Grimm did so… and they all dropped dead. – Happy spent the rest of the day looking for shoe boxes.
Reggie + Corpsey = BRAINZZZ
It would become a thing of legend, a tale of awe and mystery to all elven-kind. It is common knowledge among fantasy folk that to create a special holiday gift, the abilities of at least two elves are required. Reggie disappeared into the workshop, dragging Corpsey, the deceased elf, behind him. But Corpsey doesn’t move. Corpsey is dead. Hours later he emerged, showing what had been made.
