[EVENT] 'Tis the Spooky Season...
Autumn is drawing on in the Velvet Room and its environs. The days are colder, the nights are crisper, leaves are a riot of colour ready to fall from the trees. And (besides all the pumpkin spice popping up for some reason) that means only one thing: Hallowe'en!
As the season approaches, you may undergo a mysterious transformation. Perhaps you wake up with wings, or hooves, or gills! Or perhaps your transformation will change more, go deeper... perhaps to your very soul. Who can tell? You might wake up as an animal, or a mythological creature. Or as anything at all.
Transformations will reverse on the morning of November 1st.Probably.
In the meantime, Destinyland is celebrating the holiday. Cheerful Jack-o'-Lantern Shadows have set up on street corners, handing out flyers advertising the park's seasonal festivities. In the days leading up to the 31st, Destinyland will host all the usual fun: Hallowe'en games, Trick or Treat for the babies (and the not-so-babey), the Gorb fortune teller, Shadow-run food stalls serving spooky meals and treats, and, of course, the haunted house with its array of friendly, candy-giving Shadows. Or maybe they're not so friendly.
On the night of Hallowe'en itself, there will be a parade at the park and a grand party out in the main square with food, music, and plenty of space, though characters are not obliged to attend. However, if you wish to show off your new form, see what transformations have been wrought on your fellow guests, or simply take the chance to celebrate, it may be a good opportunity...
Who knows? Perhaps you'll even see some special guests.
[ooc: Welcome to our second Halloween event! This post will serve as a mingle for the duration of the event. Feel free to invite friends to play as guest characters, too! There will be a toplevel, and guest characters are simply whisked into the setting to engage in festivities, with a slight ghostly aura. For an example, see the thread here from last year!]

Post-Royal Akechi | OPEN
A very curious sight can be found storming through the streets of Tokyo. A strange cartoon animal, clad in the Black Mask uniform, to be precise.
You can feel the fury radiating off of his spiky, furry body. His fingers twitch, ready to wring someone's neck.
Eventually he reaches the Velvet Room, slamming his hands down on Igor's desk. "Do you think this is funny?" His voice still sounds notably like a normal Akechi, if nothing else.
B. Testing the Limits
Irritated beyond belief, this unfortunate Akechi decides to blow off steam while testing the limits.
How? By trying to jump. Those hedgehogs curl into balls, don't they? So he tries that, and then he tries to do that... homing attack, striking and popping a balloon with Jack Frost's face, which causes an irritated Jack Frost to come up to him and start squabbling.
"Heeeey-ho! Not cool, ho!"
"No one asked to be transformed, least of all like this. Am I not allowed to blow off some steam?"
Care to intervene?
C. Gotta go... fast?
At some point, during the night, when he's sure no one is looking, he does something. Purely for science, of course.
He steps back, takes a deep breath, and zooms through the park. It seems that while the exterior of his shoes have the Black Mask spikes, Igor was 'generous' enough to give him rockets on the underside all the same.
So he's skating at ridiculous speeds.
What? He has to kill time somehow.
