GBBR presents...

TRICK or TREAT!

Tall, dark clouds dominate the horizon blocking any hope of stars on this Halloween night. Thunder claps echo between decorated houses and wind tears at fake graves, pulling them from their moorings to spin wildly around the sky. It's safe and warm and cozy indoors, and you might as well help yourself to the bowl of candy. You won't have any hatchlings this year. No parent in their right mind would let their kid go out in this gale. Not to mention you swear you saw some monstrosity roaming the neighborhood, a hulking thing with bits of metal sticking out of it. Certainly best to stay indoors. The smell of ozone fills the air and something explodes outside. All of the lights go out, not just inside, but out in the street. Maybe not so cozy after all. Not a minute later, there's a rapid, insistent knock at the door, a neighbor, you reckon, coming to make sure you're okay. You open it to the ear piercing shriek:

"TRICK OR TREAT!"

Rules of Engagement

Today marks the start of the

LIGHTNING ROUND

event! In other words, the event starts now, at 00:30 FRT today, the 28th of October! The event ends at 23:59 FRT on the 31st of October. Over the course of three days you should be sending PMs to and receiving PMs from the other participants in your neighborhood.

There's only one neighborhood this year!

You can find links to everyone who has joined in on the fun in the Participant List below.

Once you have found a door to knock on, it's time to compose your PM!

All GBBR Trick-or-Treater PMs should contain:

A picture of a hatchling. This could be an actual hatchling, a permababy, or even a scry! But the picture needs to be in there.
The text content "Trick or Treat" somewhere in the message.
Optionally: Feel free to go all out with the customization. Art, roleplay, items, and any sort of tricky creativity is more than encourage, but not required.

All GBBR Candy-Giver PMs should contain:

At least 50 food points.
Optionally: The food points can be of the type of food that your trick-or-treater needs most (you can see this information in the Participant List) but they don't have to. Again, Art, roleplay, items, and any sort of tricky creativity is more than encourage.

50 food points per participant comes up to a total of 650 food points that you will give away during this event! If you run out, contact a staff member—we'll help you!

This is not a requirement, but as the trick-or-treater, you can of course reply to the "Treat!" PM with a little story of your hatchling receiving the treat if you want to! Or maybe your hatchling decided to play a trick in return despite getting a treat?

Participant List

Here we have it, the big list of participants! Clicking someone's profile picture will take you to their Clan Page!

And remember: Not to leave the neighborhood! Who knows what sort of sinister creatures dwell in the shadows between settlements, after all? Hatchlings have disappeared there, never to be seen again . .

Toffy-Taffy Terrace

Galina would not be deterred by a little bit of rain, even if the thunder left her ears ringing. There was free candy to be had and not a soul would keep her from it. The other dedicated children gathered around with her to check the map as they did every year, but at that moment lightning struck and something exploded. Well, the map was useless. The treaters would have to rely on their noses to sniff out the good houses.

Birdee's Log 2.1 I'm not entirely sure where I've been or what happened to me. I have the previous recordings, but I feel . . . older. Wiser? No. That can't be. But at least the tape recorder still works. Wherever I went, it seems to have broken all the images in the first couple of posts. I'll fix that. The intergalactic time ticker seems to indicate it's about time for the annual gift exchange event in the server: Secret Santa. There's a couple of things to take care of in the backend, but keep an eye on the horizon for that. There's also been talks of scatter journeys starting back up again. @acelien's [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/drs/3370373/1]Prism[/url] is back to being a hungy boi. While lost beyond the bounds of comprehension, I ran into an old friend. Phaedra, the literal embodiment of space noise, got a glow-up recently.

Until the next rotation, stay fly. Birdee out.

Birdee's Log 2.2 Stars look pretty from the planet's surface, where there's plenty of atmosphere between you and their piecing gaze. Up here, you're seen. Also, the freeze-dried marshmallow supply is running low. A travesty. We had one new member yesterday! This is Arroway. She's an astronomer who goes out into the desert every night to listen to radio waves from the stars. Recently she heard something, or someone, and it was beautiful. She hopes to meet it one day, but until then, she'll continue sending letters via dish.

Birdee's Log 2.3 You never consider how nice a normal coffee maker is until it's impossible to use one lest you want little beads of scalding hot coffee floating around all over the place. We're getting a little bit of a writing accountability group going in the server. We've got people working on a little bit of everything. This gal is the current reason I'm making gemmies. She's second in line for a gem gene after Arroway (Harley is just too pretty). But I did just pick up her skybeeb scroll!
