Dear Sir and or Madam,
The wRHG thanks you for your participation in our battles and events. We hope that you aren’t too heavily scarred and enjoy the holidays with your remaining family and friends, for those of you who still have some. If however, you tire of spending time with people who love you, you can spend the day with people you span the entire love hate relationship with. My therapist tells me there’s more to life hurting people, so feel free to take part in our first annual Secret Santa event. To participate, report to your local Arena to add your name to the pot. You will draw a name on December 1st, which should give you ample time to find a present for them. Make sure you mail it in beforehand, and then on Christmas Day report back to your local arena. From there, you will be transported to our very special North Pole location, where cookies, milk, and hopefully gifts will be abundant underneath the Christmas tree!
Happy Belated/Early Thanksgiving,
Kranc
All you have to do is say you will be taking part, link your wRHG page, as well as say your location for unwrapping your gift. This will come into play because the people you’re seated around may react to you, and you to them
Nothing too hard, just write two brief stories. First, deciding upon, and acquiring the gift of your choice, and then second, unwrapping and reacting to what you’re given.
DO NOT POST WHAT YOU WILL BE GIVING ON THIS THREAD. All will be submitted through PM.
The first thing that’s due is the acquiring of the gift story, as well as a detailed account of what the gift actually is, including how it’s wrapped. This is due December 7th. Now, I know a week isn’t much time, but I’m not expecting a novel. A few paragraphs will suffice. If you want to write more though, be my guest.
By the 9th, I will have PMed you what your gladiator will be receiving.
At this point, you can collaborate with the people your gladiator will be with, such as mini RPs if you choose. If not, turn in your entry by the 17th so I can pass it to the people around your guy/girl for little reaction insertions. Anything they add will be shown back to you so you can either reject, green light, or add to it. Things MUST BE IN FINAL FORM BY THE 20TH.
Again, submit by PM so I can organize it and have it posted on either Christmas Eve, or Christmas Day, depending on when I can sneak in the five minutes to copy past what I’ve put together.
All submissions will be placed in spoilers with the gladiator’s name being the title of it. These will be organized by location, but only the unwrapping will be posted on Christmas Eve/Day. Who did what will be revealed next year (As in the 1st or 2nd of January) so feel free to take guesses and discuss!
The gift giving takes place in a cabin in the North Pole. Snow is falling outside and the windows are covered in frost. There are three round tables scattered in the building, all of which are made of wood. Additionally, there is the Christmas tree itself, covered in white lights with a bright star at the top. It is in back left corner of the cabin. Next to it on the back wall is the fireplace, complete with burning logs. It is comfortably warm inside. On the right wall is a long table where the milk and cookies are located.
Your unwrapping options:
Table A: Closest to the food and drink
Table B: Closest to the window on the left
Table C: Closest to the door
Fireplace
Tree
Depending on how many people go where, tables may be combined, as well as the fireplace and tree. You will be notified if things change. If they do, it will be no later than the 2nd, just because by then I am no longer accepting participants and will know exactly what to expect.
What kind of gift can I give?
Doesn’t matter so long as it doesn’t effect anything cannon. You can give anything from a severed head, to a diamond ring, to a bag of chips out of the vending machine.
I don’t have a wRHG, can I use something else?
Sure, just make sure it’s actually yours and you have a link to something like a profile page. If you link me a novel that you expect someone to read, I’m rejecting your character.
Can I do multiple?
No, I don’t want anyone getting over ambitious and crashing and burning. Someone’s counting on you to do your part, don’t let them down.
THUS: May I suggest Crank, my friend, that we make seating arrangements also more personalized?
Table A - Closest to the food.
Table B - Closest to the bar.
Table C - Closest to the door.
Those are only very small suggestions... If you'd like?
YES. Although the milk is just at the end of the long table with the cookies, so the bar is changing to the window on the left side of the cabin.
Why didn’t you answer my question?
I didn’t think of it. Ask it in the thread, and I’ll add it here.
Happy Holidays,
Crank
Green: Complete
Red: I can dig it out of the story
