Biography

The Dawn of the Haulidays

Cars across all the planets become flush with excitement starting on December 15 of every year. They claim the Haulidays have begun. What are the Haulidays, you may ask?
Since car-kind tends to do the exact opposite of what their creators did, they don't celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, or Kwanzaa. Instead, they celebrate 16 days of togetherness, gift giving, and extreme winter sports and tasks differentiating each day. December 20 might be "Haul a boat through 5 feet of snow", while the 21st could be "slide downhill as a dog" if the cars are from an agency with morphing technology. However, we still decorate (almost every inch of our houses) with lights, erect trees which we light as well, and wrap presents. We might also light the presents. Our race really loves light, okay?!
The first snow, almost always falling near the beginning of the Haulidays, also marks the season's Annual Snow Plow ceremony, where 5 random trucks across each manufacturer gets to spend the winter keeping the roads passable day and night. At spring's arrival, they are heavily rewarded for their duties and showered in gifts.
It's believed the Haulidays were started shortly after we reached Azhuiea, but nobody is totally sure. It's just our dumb little winter celebration we keep going through the new year.




The 2131 Dawnrise Hauliday Advent Calendar!

This year's events were decided and explained by Logan

Day 1: Team Snow Shoveling!
Contestants will deem a team leader and try their best to clear their entire driveway before the other teams do.

Day 2: Frozen Lake 3 Legged Race with Bucket of Fish challenge!
While you and a friend's legs are tied together, you attempt to hobble across an icy lake while both of you carry buckets of water and fish. The team with the most fish in the pail by the finish line wins! Bonus points for water.

Day 3: Tube Sledding!
Ya, exactly how it sounds! You're challenged to a tube sledding freestyle! No competition needed... But competition always makes things more fun and way more intense!

Day 4: Dyed Snowball fight Tournament!
Instead of paintball guns, you throw painted snowballs at each other.The team with the most survivors wins!

Day 5: Igloo Building Race!
Build that igloo!! Build it!! The judge will attempt to destroy and lay all over your snow hut. If it collapses, you lose!

Day 6: Team Hot Coco Chug!
in a relay race between multiple teams, you down as much fresh, scalding hot liquid chocolate as you can before switching off to the next partner. The more you can stand gulping down, the more points you rack up! If you switch off, the multiplier resets. Even if you never switch off, you can still win, so drink as much as you can!

Day 7: Glacienoid Egg Race!
You and however many other players go and find feral dragon eggs in the snow! Whoever can outrun angry momma to the finish line is the winner!

Day 8: Downhill Ice Skating!
It's like ice skating and skiing had a baby! You slide down a sharp incline wearing ice skates. If you can do tricks, you get extra points!

Day 9: Naked Snow Roll Challenge!
While wearing no clothes (you record your points privately), you jump into a freshly plowed pile of snow and stay there as long as you can! Not recommended on days below 20 degrees Fahrenheit.

Day 10: Snow Car Building Contest!
Snowmen? Pfft! The real challenge is making snow vehicles. You pull a make and model from a hat and the more realistic you make the car look, the more points you win!

Day 11: Tree Decorating Race!
There will be hundreds of trees sprinkled around the District somewhere, but we won't tell you where they are. It's up to you to decorate them first before anyone else can! If someone finds a tree, they can knock off your decorations and replace them with their own or even start decorating the tree in tandem. It depends on the person. You both get half points for decorating, even if the other only has one decoration on your tree!

Day 12: Hot Tub Sudden Death Match!
Of course you knew what this one is! You and one other player will sit in a hot tub outside in subfreezing temperatures. The first one out wins!

Day 13: Bad Santa Gift Exchange!
You are not allowed to go out and buy a gift, you can only take whatever you have lying around your house to the exchange. The gift can be as useless or as priceless as you want. An anonymous gift handler not participating in the exchange will wrap your present behind the scenes so not even you will know what's what. Just pray your old souvenir shirt doesn't wind up with the wrong person. Karen, you went there without me?!?!

Day 14: Delicatessen Dash!
A wooded trail is littered with small food trucks baking Hauliday favorites from many cultures. You can only carry so many at once, so you can swap out what you have with something you want every stop. You can also trade treats with others along the way Some treats are worth more than others and the points are decided by the judges. Anybody that gets as close to 150 points without going over wins a coupon to Titaniumhitch's bakery for a year worth of free cookies!
