Name of Class: Your Very Own Halloween Costume!
Professor name: Professor Selene Apophis

General Information: This class is open to Amityville students as well as Horsemen!

Professor Selene has collected far too much memorabilia from her trips to the human world, especially during Halloween. She wants to put some of her collection to good use, by helping out anyone who wants to make an appropriate costume for the all too important Trick or Treating that occurs every Halloween in the human world! You get to keep what you put together here - you may even get to use her costume in her Halloween Helpers Field Trip or one of the Horseman's Trick-or-Treating (Treat only) mission, should you want to!

Mechanics:

Part One
: Picking outfit pieces

There's boxes lined up all in a row, all of which are filled with colorful pieces of costumes from days gone by. You're allowed to pick out four pieces to make a costume, so make it count!

Roll 4d12. If you don't like the pieces you rolled in this option, you are allowed to try again one time! Matching pieces will give you more points!

1. A Witch/Wizard Hat
2. A Witch/Wizard Robe
3. A Broom
4. A Pirate's Hat
5. A Pirate's Tunic
6. A Sword
7. A Skull Mask
8. A Skeleton Bodysuit
9. A Pumpkin Stump Hat
10. A Giant Pumpkin Bodysuit
11. A Blue Fairy Dress
12. Blue Wings

As you can see, 1/2/3 is a match, 4/5/6 is a match, as is 7/8, 9/10, and 11/12. If you manage to match two pieces of an outfit, you get +2 to your final total. If you manage 3 pieces, you get +4 to your final total! If NONE of your pieces match, you get +1 added to your total for originality. Remember you are allowed to roll again if you don't like your first find, but you must roleplay both posts out (minimum 100 words each), and you can choose whichever of the two you like best!

Part Two:

Putting together your costume:


It's time to show Selene what you've chosen! Put the costume on and try to explain to her what you are, even if your pieces mismatch. Are you a pirate fairy? A Skeletal Pumpkin? That's horrifying! You must tell her a story (minimum 200 words) about the character you've created. You can even give it a name, a backstory, and a goal in life! Make it interesting, Selene loves to be enchanted with a good story!

Roll 1d6 with your explanation post. Add the total of this dice, to the points you made in part one. Match your total to the fields below!

Totals:
1-2: Selene is so disappointed in your lack of attention to detail. She doesn't even know if she should let you keep the costume you made.. you clearly don't care about it! (Fail)
3-4: Is.. is your professor about to cry? She looks like she's about to cry.. maybe you should have taken your work more seriously.. (Fail)
5-6: Selene says nothing, but puts a green star sticker on your forehead. For Effort! (Pass)
7-8: Well done! Selene is so enchanted by your story, that she's lost track of what she was doing. Oh, that's right! Giving you an A! (Pass)
9-10: Is.. is your professor about to cry? She looks like she's about to cry.. did you do something wrong? Was your costume not good enough? No, she's just.. so.. proud.. *SNIFF* (Pass)

YOU LOSE/FINISH THIS CLASS WHEN…

You complete the class, whether you pass or fail. You get +1 rp point for completing, and another +1 point if you managed to go over 800 words.

Should you pass, you will get a bonus to the Horseman Trick or Treating (TREAT) EM, or Selene's Halloween Helpers Mission! You also get this neat-o special ability:

Super cool IC ability that you get for passing: You can now magically transform into your halloween costume instantly!

The amount of festivities around The Big Day were always kind of incredible. Even the teachers got into the spirit and tailored their classes to celebrate it. A costume class, however, seemed a little silly and redundant to Drona. She was already a venom drooling tree beast. Why should she dress up in something ridiculous that was meant to make her scarier?

She played along for the sake of the grade, honestly. She pulled out a couple things at random. A hat, a mask, a suit, and some wings. The wizards hat was a gaudy blue with silver stars and moons plastered all over it. It looked awful on her. The skull mask was much cooler, but didn't go with the disgusting orange bodysuit (that barely fit her 6'5 frame) she'd happened to grab. And on top of it all, the wings went with nothing.

Whatever she'd tried to do, it was a disaster of a costume.

She considered showing it to the teacher anyways, but she couldn't look at herself in the mirror and feel like it would be worth the awful grade. She huffed and took everything off and tossed it back into the pile. She'd have to start over and be more conscious of what she took this time.

More determined than when she'd first walked in, Drona paid more attention to the pieces she was pulling out off the boxes. First she pulled out a simple black witches hat. Classic and easy to match. But when she put it on, it was too tight on her head, as if it were made for a scareling. She didn't want to find something else, but she could see another similar hat in the same box. She glanced behind her to make sure the professor wasn't paying attention and then ripped the hats open and taped them together to make a hat twice the size. The new megahat was a perfect fit.

She decided a black robe was the best match for her new hat. There was one she found with many pockets on the inside, perfect for hiding her eyephone. It wasn't important, but it was nice all the same.

In the end she felt like she needed one more piece, but couldn't decide what to use. She drifted among the boxes, but always ended up back near the skull mask. It didn't really match, but it was pretty cool and she could make it work. Right?

+4 bonus

Drona sidled over to the professor and stood awkwardly for a second. "Uh. I'm done."

A raised brow. "What are you?"

Drona panicked for a second. She hadn't really considered what she was. Cool didn't seem like the appropriate answer. "I'm uh, a skeletal witch. Yeah. She used to be alive, but she was sent on a journey to become a full witch or... something."

Pause. No response.

"So uh, she went on a really dangerous journey and encountered the scariest beasts in all of Halloween. And she defeated them all. Except when she faced the biggest dragon in the lands? And she really made her mad. And the dragon, she didn't have time to deal with some puny witch. So she took a deep breath and exhaled a massive fireball. And the witch wasn't prepared so she couldn't escape. And all her flesh melted off leaving just her bones."

That was... kind of sad. But it totally made sense. Now she just needed a killer finisher.

"Aaaaaaaaaand.... Now she haunts young witches to protect them on their own journeys?" Jacking nailed it.

A sniffle. Drona took a step forward, ready to apologize, but the professor shook her head and clapped softly. "Pass."

"Sweet!" Drona cheered. She raced back to the boxes and took off the costume as quickly as she could without ripping the hat apart again. But she hesitated when she went to put the mask back in the box. She was kind of attached to it now.

Would the teacher notice if she just...?

She slipped the mask under her shirt and gave the prof a cheery wave as she left the room. No one would be any the wiser.
