Michel Delving, The Shire - Reflecting Pool - [33.4S, 75.8W]
Rules of the Event:
-Participants must create a hobbit alt (the masqueraded mystery hobbits) ,
such alt's identity must remain secret from all friends/kin members.
-The alts/masqueraded hobbits must maintain the original gender of
your character but can have different features/class/clothing/ and of
course RP story.
-There will not be a traditional 'Master of Ceremony' , all hobbits
must therefore use their initiative, and come forward to perform in an
orderly fashion .
-Musicians and performers must take care of learning some new (never
heard before ) music, songs, poems, and stories. Each performer has 5/8
minutes allocated for music/poem/story. To allow all to take part and
the night to be a success, please do not use more then 5/8 minutes.
-Due to the very nature of this event, only 'solo' performances will take place during the Ball by the mystery hobbits.
-Due to the very nature of this event, every hobbit can bring some food
and drinks to share with others (This is only a suggestion and not
obligatory)
-The 'Guess Who?' Game:
After the musical performances, a signal will be given to all the
guests. This will be the beginning of the 'Guess Who?' Game. Each hobbit
will come centre stage while others will try to guess his/her real
identity. This hobbit will then walk behind a tree , take his mask off
and come back with their real identity
- Grand Finale: Musical surprises , fireworks and all over merriment.
We expect this event to last as long as a normal 'Green Dragon Friday' this
will be achieved with the cooperation and initiative of all
participants.
Please come along, have fun and enjoy the magic of Masquerade Ball!((
OOC: This is a hobbit-prefered event but friends of other races will be welcome should they wish to take part.
Here is how the change between a mystery hobbit and main character can be done:
1- Amorey makes sure she is wearing the same clothes as her mystery hobbit in one of her outfit slots.
2- Amorey then goes to the site of the Ball (Michel Delving
reflecting pool) making sure not to show her costume ( show a
different outfit or equipment) and goes offline.
3- Her mystery hobbit comes online and go to the Ball.
4- When the time to guess has come, the mystery hobbit steps
forward, people will guess who she is... She then walks behind a tree,
goes offline.
5-Amorey comes back on wearing the same clothes but no mask any more. Her true identity is now revealed
