Name of Mission: Field Trip: Halloween Helpers!
Professor name: Professor Selene Apophis

General Information:

Professor Selene has chosen you to come to the human world and help her make a few things right. There seems to be an epidemic of missing Halloween candy, and the human children are in need of your help! It's time to try and make some Halloween magic!

Mechanics:

Part One
: Costumes

You might have already made a costume in Selene's Costume class, but even if you didn't, you can find something! How great your costume is will affect your rolls in part three. If you did not do the open class, you may simply choose what they end up wearing! As long as it is not too frightening.
  • Roll a 1d6 and match your results below:
    • 1-2: Scary! Too scary! No one is going to let you near their house wearing that! (1d cool
    • 3-5: Three children nearby are already wearing the costume you are. At least you'll fit in.. (1d10)
    • 6: What an original, fantastic costume! You have a real knack for creativity! (1d12)
  • In brackets you will notice a dice value - this will be how much candy you manage to place in bowls, in part three!
  • Once you have your costume, you may go ahead to part two!


PART TWO
You have your costume. You're safely in the human world with Selene, in a town whose name you did not bother to pay attention to. The streets are lined with charming little houses, all lit up and bearing candy buckets just outside of the door. The children will be here soon to find them empty - their little hearts will be broken! We have to fill these buckets without being noticed! It's time to make some magic!

  • Roll a 1d8, and match your results below:
    • 1: How sad, this giant cauldron's completely empty, it's going to take a lot of work filling it back up again! (Candy: 0/100)
    • 2: This brick house has a small goblin shaped bowl with two Werther's in it. Pathetic. (Candy: 2/20)
    • 3: A Typical glass bowl with a few pieces still remaining. (Candy: 4/40)
    • 4: Instead of a bucket, a little child is holding their basket up to you. It seems they've figured out what you're doing... (Candy:8/20)
    • 5: There's a party going on inside this house! They probably had candy inside, but the bucket looks empty. Maybe if you start them off? (Candy: 0/80 - every time you put 20 candy in, someone comes from inside to match your 20 candy with 20 of their own.)
    • 6: A Typical plastic bowl with a few pieces still remaining. (Candy: 5/40)
    • 7: The lights are off in front of this house, but the bucket is still there, and still empty! (Candy: 0/40)
    • 8: A gorgeous house with a giant bucket filled with candy - apparently, this one has a good security system. No one's been stealing too much here. (Candy: 95/100)
  • Each house has a Candy Value. Your job will be to fill those buckets, but careful not to be noticed, someone might think you're stealing from them!
  • Once you have your house, you may go ahead to part three!


PART THREE
You have chosen the household to help. Now it's time to do your best!
  • Your 'attack dice' - meaning how much candy you manage to grab in one handful - depends on your roll in part one.
  • Part three acts like the opposite of a battle. You're adding, not subtracting to the total!
  • Example: I rolled a 5 in part one, and a 6 in part 2. This means my house's bucket has room for 35 more pieces of candy. I have to roll a 1d10 until I score a total of 35 or more.
  • You can only roll one dice per post. Don't forget to RP your student trying to stay out of sight!
  • If you fill the bucket, get out of there quickly and return to Selene! Congratulations, you helped save Halloween!


gaia_crown [ BONUS MECHANICS ]
  • If doing this in a group:
    • Every group member must do all the dice requirements. If one member fills their bucket before the others, they may help out in filling out the rest!

Lock was interested at the chance to interact with humans. He had doubts about the whole "save the entirety of Halloween" thing when it hinged on candy, but he still took the class seriously. Lock hardly ever slacked off and he intended to complete this class with the same work ethic.

Costumes were ... well Lock frowned at his options. Seeing as he was from Halloween and scary things were the goal, he chose a hideous constume complete with zombified makeup that made him look like he had real cuts.

Selene seemed to disapprove of how scary his costume was, but Lock was resolute in his choice. It was supposed to be scary. It was Halloween!

The human world was ... well a lot quieter than he expected it to be. He'd been told stories about humans with extra legs and monstrous roars; it seemed like there would be more ... pizzazz to their world.

Then Selene informed them that the scarelings had yet to arrive. Okay, that made a lot more sense. They were each assigned a house of their own, complete with a strange candy storage bucket device (did the scarelings each get a bucket? Why were they feeding scarelings entire buckets of candy? Was this some sort of sacrificial appeasement or something?). The house that he arrived happened to have a large, empty cauldron.

Was he ... supposed to do something with this?

The difficult part of the task was not filling the buckets. He found they had no magical ward on them, no sort of hidden illusion and no trick-or-treater tampering with them whatsoever. They were just buckets he had to fill with candy.

The hard part was doing it unnoticed. Lock fancied himself to be a person of the stealthier kind, but there were a lot of lights here which didn't leave a lot of places for shadows. He preferred Halloween where everything was at least a little bit shadowed.

Voodoo didn't help either. When kids got scared of his costume, he could at least speak in a normal voice that it was just a costume. On more occasion than one he calmly explained that it was makeup and peeled off a few of the fake cuts. Even under all the costuming, he was still only a reaper and that meant mostly human in shame.

Voodoo on the other hand was a cat entirely composed of shadows, eyeballs, tentacles and all things terrifying.

That wasn't so easy to explain.

This time he was stopped partway by a snotty brat in a dinosaur costume. Ugh.

He looked over to another house wherein another student was finishing off the top. It was a tiny little jar, minuscule compared to his enormous cauldron.

Now that he had a moment to look at the other houses, he noticed that most of them were smaller than his, or already half full. Well dammit.

Either way, he had a job to do. He couldn't look to others with envy. He had been assigned this cauldron, and he was going to fill it dammit.

Even with giant scoops in his hands, he could only fill his bucket so much at a time. Maybe eight or nine pieces could fit in one hand, and while he would have liked to fill his messenger bag and just dump it all in the bucket, he couldn't do that because there were about twenty or so more students all trying to do the same thing. It would have taken too long.

So instead he (begrudgingly) settled for the slow, slow way.

One student almost spotted him, but he quickly merged into their shadow. He felt the itch to pop out and scare them (a natural Halloween instinct, he supposed), but he showed restraint and stuck to the task at hand.

Lock had been doing so well he needed a short break. Then he got back on it.

He supposed the bucket was about halfway full now. That was good, right?

So much candy. He was still appalled that one scareling was going to eat this all.
