Who: All heroes
When: Day 45, Morning
Where: The clearing

[ In the morning, all heroes can wake up to see a new trial is being held! Following the door that appears in the clearing will lead to a Very Scary, faux-abandoned house. There are all the markings of terrible Halloween decorations, for those that are familiar with it. There are fake spiderwebs all around, fake bats, skeletons, and even spider skeletons.

There are several different tables spread across the room - one has a pile of small, sticky spiders in it, then there's one where people can get refreshments, if they so wish, and all others have tons and tons of pumpkins sitting there. None of those are carved - though there are several carved, lit pumpkins spread across the room - just sitting on the floor.

Notably there is a runway, and behind that, a room in which people may grab costumes, or pieces of costume. Make up is also provided.

Finn can be seen at the end of the Runway, aptly wearing his Spider-Man costume, before he begins to explain ]


So! I've recently found out I fight crazy people for a, huh, possibly living. Whether I get paid or not is still under debate. And who would have thought, there's a costumed guy for every occasion. There's no better way to drive off the mental image of a guy fighting with a flaming pumpkin on his head than make better memories, so I'm imposing Halloween on you all.

For those of you who are not in the known, what with us being all from different worlds and stuff, Halloween is, huh ... probably an actual serious holiday somewhere, somehow, but in practice it's all about the money, baby! And scary stuff. And sharing scary stories and getting candy.

So there you have it. A game to get some actual fun Halloween action that does not involve people barely avoiding getting brutally murdered and blown up. Not speaking of anyone in particular here.

Certainly. Please do.

Great!

[schrodingerscockroach]

Halloween has never cared much for realism.

[bowtiedbones]

This is beyond realism! This is beyond fantasy!

[schrodingerscockroach]

...you know, I don't know how familiar people generally are about bugs being exoskeletons.

[bowtiedbones]

It should be basic knowledge??

[schrodingerscockroach]

People don't like bugs. [Shrugs.]

[bowtiedbones]

But their biology is so unique!

[daydreamshimmer]

Apparently spiders weren't creepy enough.

[bowtiedbones]

They're creepier without being skeletons!

[daydreamshimmer]

...honestly, yeah. Skeletons can't have venom.

[bowtiedbones]

Is that the creepiest part about spiders?

[daydreamshimmer]

It's the dangerous part. The rest is just like...crawly. And running into webs which feels icky.

Let the spider have his skeleton if he wants to.

[bowtiedbones]

But what's he need it for!

[malignstar]

Spider clout?

[bowtiedbones]

Male spiders don't get clout! They get to be not eaten at best!

[malignstar]

Maybe he wants it. Maybe he has low self esteem.

[spectacularluck]

The king of the spook! So scary it forgot it's supposed to have an exoskeleton.

[bowtiedbones]

It's completely left what makes a spider!
