Kiki sets up a box on the back counter of the box. She leaves blank cards and a quill near Erork. Displayed on the bar counter is a line up of jack o' lanterns, four of which have a name set before them. A note is left with the four names listed, saying to vote for just one individual who they feel had the best jack o' lantern and to write it on one of the cards. The card will then be placed within the box on the back counter and counted up after the party to determine the winner.
//OOC// Please, only vote in this if you character is present at the event. This is an IC vote. The results will be shown at 2 AM EST, two hours after the party is officially over. The voting is here on the forums as an IC poll.

Maganda Tumbletush
Maganda spent two nights alone within the depths of the Mistwood carving this pumpkin. A few times during the nights she was stalked by groups of bandits which were in turn ambushed by a hulking elemental that appeared to materialize out of thin air. This would be followed by the creepy and sinister giggling of a small fey creature followed by the phrase "If you go out into the woods tonight, you better not go alone!". Maganda was mildly under the influence during the entirety of the carving but not so far as to lose her faculties, in fact she was barely through the first barrier. Her natural meticulousness and steady hand would help her to perform stellar and accurate work. She enjoyed the process as it occupied her mind and gave her purpose, if only for a little while. The Jack-o-Lantern depicts two toadstools, one small and one large. They are huddled closely together. There is a sense of longing between them and although they love each other dearly there is also sadness. They are so close yet as toadstools they can never reach out and touch one another. Love exists but it is doomed to end in tragedy and disappointment. Once complete, the toadstools she was using as reference were promptly picked and consumed. She then offers the pumpkin to Erork to put up on display. She leaves her name, Maganda Tumbletush. Despite the real meaning behind the piece of art, she leaves a note with a rather simplistic description. "I made a toadstool style Jack-o-Lantern because toadstools are pretty." |

Zedok Mindspanner
A diminutive gnome dressed in ink-smudged robes of forest green with gold accents walks in hesitantly, a pumpkin larger than his head balanced precariously in his arms. He speaks very quickly in Common "Ehrm mister barkeep where can I put this, hmm?" The pumpkin has been carved into a tableau of an arachnophobe's nightmare. A monstrous spider leers over a pair of gnomes, one wretchedly trapped in secure webbing, the other running for his life.Approaching the bar the gnome peers up at the half-orc with barely concealed fear. The gnome says "Uhm this is called Zedok's Nightmare.I had a horrible dream about dire spiders and to get it out of my system I made this.I am Zedok Mindspanner.Erm apologies if this terrifies anyone but I will not be held legally responsible for fainting spells, violent projectile discharges or soiled underpants.Now pl-please I wish to order a Tea.Earl Grey.Hot." He reaches into a pouch and anxiously places coins on the counter once the bartender has taken the pumpkin.  |

Dreshae
Dreshae enters into the Tipsy Imp, looks at the pumpkins on display... and immediately leaves. She returns some time later, with a pumpkin of her own beneath her arm. "It's not the best thing ever... I'm better at cutting things in half than into neat patterns. But here." She pops her own down will a small smile.  "These things are bloody terrifying." |

Aaloria "Alora" ElyantideAaloria shows up to the Tipsy Imp, carrying a pumpkin under her arm, and a little baggy in the other. Offering over both, she grins and winks to Erork. Seeds for the party- And where do you want me to put this..? *Waves around the pumpkin a bit, purposefully showing it off a bit perhaps, before simply handing it over aswell as the baggy.* *The jack'o lantern is carved in a rather simple design, that of a face. Nothing about it shows that she tried really hard, and most likely carved the pumpkin out of her own amusement. Not deciding to leave her name, but instead giving a name for the pumpkin as she takes her leave.* "Take good care of Giggles for me!"  |
