Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yeah, that's right.

I want to see your best Halloween costumes for your avatars and hear your best Halloween stories.
You can dress up as anything, and you can even make your costume go with your story if you wish.
Write about something that has happened to you on Halloween. It can be funny, scary, inspiring; anything that is a true story. But please don't make the stories too long. I get distracted easily by bright shiny objects and little people that say, "Mom!"

If you wish, you may buy a Refurbished Sheet in Barton Boutique for 100 GG and creatively accessorize it. It's not as easy as it sounds.

This is an impromptu contest and the winner will win 100,000 gold.
Second place will win 50,000 gold.
Third place will win 25,000 gold.
It will run until the end of October. You will have until then to tweak your avis and/or your stories.
On November 1st I will update this post with the list of the winners.

Good luck everyone!

EDIT:

And the winners are...

First Place: OhNoesItsMiho

Second Place: Serena_Mudou

And there was a tie for Third Place: eMberzane and xena91388

Congratulations to our winners!!!

I hope you all had fun dressing up! I know I enjoyed seeing your costumes, reading your stories/character backgrounds and giving away some gold. cat_xd

question! Is this a Halloween costume for our avatars or for ourselves? I wanna enter! n.n

This is just something that I wanted to do for the guild. It is just for your avatars. heart

Don't forget to enter the contest! Even if you only dress up your avis, you need to tell me in a post that you are entering the contest and be wearing your entry on October 31st!

I will also enter my current avi.

I am dressed up as Winnry from Full Metal Alchemist (minus the fact that she has blond hair). Winnry is the chid friend of Edward and Al (the two main characters). She serves as Ed's personal mechanic for his automail arm and leg that he lost while trying to bring his mother back to life.

Are you entering the costume contest and if so is your current avi the one you're entering? The Doctor?

Yesssss I am the Tenth Doctor! Where do we submit our Halloween stories?

I'll just write it here. So a loooong time ago when I was seven years old, I went as an undead bride. I went door to door collecting my goodies like a boss. Suddenly, my night turned into tricks. There was a bush next to a walkway to a house. As my mom stood by to keep an eye on me, some person in a wolf mask popped out of said bushes. I screamed and shouted, "YOU ALMOST GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK!" Needless to say, my pillowcase was super full anyway so I guess I needed a few scares.

Are you wearing your Halloween costume?

EDIT: Faolan, you didn't answer before the contest ended and since we didn't have very many takers, I am awarding you a little something just for posting on this thread. emotion_dealwithit Cheers.
