and though you fight to stay alive
your body starts to shiver
for no mere mortal can resist
the evil of the thriller

Poly's Halloween Event is upon us and things are going to get pretty freaky. Beginning October 23 characters may find themselves transformed into terrible monstrous beings. Who knows why this is happening, it just is.

Maybe they're a bloodsucking leech.

A flea bitten mongrel.

Someone waiting to put a spell on you.

A vengeful once entombed beloved.

Searching for a sailor bold.

That toy in the corner you swear is breathing.

One of the hungry...very very hungry.

Or just a ghost who wants to keep you.

You can go traditional or modern, supernatural or scientific. How you interpret the nature of the beast is up to you. You may have your character's mental state changed into believing he or she always was a monster or they can maintain their original states of mind and frrreeeeak out over their transformation. The sky's the limit here which is all we can really say for now other than yes some monsterfied characters can create other monsterfied characters (vampire siring, zombie bites, etc), yes there will be a way for characters to return to normal (dramatically, violently, comically, and/or casually), and yes this event has a Death Exemption for all characters either monsterfied or killed by a monster. Characters who are already canonically a vampire or werewolf and what not have the option of becoming completely living breathing and vulnerably human for the duration of the event.

There will be more information about why this is happening and what the exact means of reversal are closer to the start of the event! If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask and feel free to discuss or plot potential monsters here ♥

Charlie's going to be searching for her sailor bold and wants other mermaids to harass people with.

WAIT HEY QUICK QUESTION WHERE WILL THE MERMAIDS BE LIVING?

Probably the ocean. Or...uh...hm. Other bodies of water?

I WAS THINKING OF MAKING RAPUNZEL A MERMAID TOO SO THAT COULD BE COOL MERMAID BUDDIES.

WE SHOULD PAIR THESE TWO UP IN ALL THE CURSES! For real. Because it's fun.

YAY MERMAID BUDDIES!

I've honestly wanted to make Charlie a mermaid for a long, long while now. Is that weird?

:D It really is a lot of fun, they get along so well!!

MERMAID FIVE! It's like a high five, but you smack your tail fins instead of your hands.

No. xD I wanted to be a mermaid when I was a kid. I think it's a thing we all go through.

They do. I love it so.

EOIC MERMAID FIVE!

And this gives Charlie a chance to sing. I'm 99 percent sure that's Emma's real singing voice. She got her start on "The real partridge family" so I would not be surprised.

:D Their's is a most awesome friendship. :3

WOOO!

Ooooh, excellent! I can have Rapunzel sing too! :3

Typically, Charlie actually can't sing very well but I figured this'd be the perfect opportunity for her to actually sing beautifully since she thinks she can't carry a tune if you glued it to her hands.

Sooo excited!

.....I'm thinking of making Eridan a Wizard of the Sea

kinda a combo Ursula/Swamp Thing....

JUST FYI, MERMAIDS.

MERMAID CHARLIE SAYS OH HAI BOSS WHATS UP?!

CEPHALERIDAN SAYS

Also I spent yesterday trying to work out how an octopus hybrid would work and the answer is it doesn't/magic.

:D Okay, so they'll be mermaids. I like.

Randomly! I suddenly picture Charlie as possibly the most territorial mermaid in the history of Things and will be very angry if anyone messes with Mermaid!Punz.

YOU ARE A GOOD FRIEND CHARLIE.

I DO WHAT I CAN DEAREST OTHERWISE WHO WOULD I GO ROLLERSKATING WITH WHEN I totallyhandwavefindingrollerskates.

BUT MERMAIDS CAN'T ROLLERSKATE. Or can they.

...that would be cute.

Steve says this is why he didn't join the Navy.

STEVE STAY AWAY FROM MERMAID!CHARLIE SHE IS A BITCH AND IS MEAN AND WILL TRY TO DROWN YOU AND HAVE SUCH GUILT FOR DAYS

So, now I'm lulzing at this. The theme for Gai's Sentai is technically Pirates. Heck, Gokai Silver has a fucking sailor bandana of awesomeness and a trident/spear thingy for a weapon that I swear the names are always backwards. He could be her sailor... if he wasn't having an OMFWTF? ARE THOSE FUCKING FORMER VILLAINS HERE?! DIDN'T THE MAGIRANGERS AND GOSEIGERS KILL YOU ALREADY?! HOSHIT! HOSHIT! moment going on.

Oh, God. This will be amazing. And Charlie's going to think she's been a mermaid since forever just for even more fun. Feel free to send him her way, though I can't guarantee she'll be nice at all if he gets too close.

Oh it's fine. He has a spear/trident/gun thingy (http://pics.livejournal.com/fanboy_silver/pic/00005e0x) to defend himself with. If she starts doing things that Gai doesn't like, the high powered sailor weaponry (http://pics.livejournal.com/fanboy_silver/pic/00004z3q) will come out.

Looking forward to it!

And once things are back to normal, she'll be so apologetic.

He won't care. It was because of the ~~evil monster of the week's influence~~ curse that she did it. She's blameless in this case!

The interpretation is open and flexible! Some could be alive but have no soul and thus no inhibitions when it comes to dragging sailors down, others could be undead and thus crave the blood of men! It's really up to you how you'd like to do it |D

Haha disregard me, I read this wrong. Yes the ocean would work but there's also lakes and streams if you want a freshwater mermaid!

Heh! It's okay. I wrote that on low sleep so I actually thought it was my fault. And okay cool! I'll have her at the lake, then.
