TIME FOR HALLOWEEEEEEEEEEN

It is that time of year again!

And this time, something unusual is happening!

The Premise

A small group of intergalactic trick-or-treaters have arrived in Axiom. In their efforts to hit as many multiversal planets as they can in one night (its sort of like Santa Claus, don't ask,) they've arrived to the Nexus via the Dimension of Doors. It doesn't matter where you're at: Sitting in your livingroom, your bedroom, your workplace, your...bathroom, they'll come a-knocking. They'll find you.

They can find any door.

They'll find the experiments of Shockwave the easiest, since these residents of Axiom have a certain special interdimensional smell about them. They know you're interesting, and they want to play!

Trick or Treat?

Once you've answered the door, you get the full Halloween experience: In front of you is a small, humanoid shape, wearing what is known as the traditional holiday garb. It looks up and smiles at you, and in your native language will say 'Trick, or Treat?'

Of course, if you're from anywhere other than Earth, you might not recognize the costumes that they come in, or even the rituals surrounding the event.

They don't care.

You have two options: Trick, or Treat.

  • Treat! If you provide them with a treat they deem acceptable, they'll go off happily, and none will be the worse for wear! In fact, they'll leave you with a treat, in turn, in the form of Candy or Energon goodies. Should you eat this? Well, maybe you'll find yourself suddenly super fast, or super strong. Maybe you'll just have amazing dreams. Anything is possible, and the effects may vary.
  • Trick! If you fail to provide them with a treat or are otherwise rude to them, they'll reward you with a trick. That costume that they're wearing, the one that you may or may not recognize? Suddenly, they've turned you into it. Enjoy being a ghost/witch/vampire/zombie for the evening. Perhaps you'll learn a little bit about the earthling's culture. Maybe more than you wanted to know.

The Execution

The Halloween event will be taking place over Halloween Weekend, starting the 28th.

A post will go up in the main community, explaining the event again. Tag into the event post with as many characters as you would like to have participate! Make each tag separate, and be sure to include the location that your character will be in when they're visited by a trick-or-treater.

A trick-or-treater will respond wearing a random costume, and will briefly interact with each character, before moving on! You'll have 2 or 3 tags to stare/attempt to find a treat/slam the door shut, before the trick-or-treater will vanish and leave you with either your Trick, or your Treat.

After that point, feel free to tag into other threads and interact with other characters, or make network posts or logs as your effected self! Effects will last from 2-3 days after the event, and will vary depending on which trick-or-treater you are interacting with.

SO, TLDR, keep an eye out for Friday, October 28th for your Axiom Nexus Halloween, and remember to have fun.
