It's the holidays, and that means it's time for a holiday event!

The Malnosso have become rather intrigued by this "Christmas" thing people keep raving about, so they've decided to play Santa this year. Thus, if you wish, every character will receive a gift, free of charge or penalty! The gift can vary depending on the character and the mood you want to give said character, but here are the guidelines:

1) The gift must be small. It's tempting but no boats or giant mechas or anything. Animals are okay so long as they're not sentient and could count as another character. That means any animal that is not a significant character is fair game; Yuri can't get Repede, but Guy could get a rappig or something.

2) The gift must be significant to the character's past or personality somehow. The Malnosso are using this for research, after all :3 Everything should be given for a reason. They can be fun and crackish or serious; for example, Yoko could receive her skimpy spa bathing suit while Cecil could get, say, the Carnelian Signet (no destroying Luceti though, bb).

3) If your character receives a weapon of some sort (within the RP rules of course), the power cap still applies. So that necklace of ultimate destruction can't help you that much, but at least it looks shiny.

4) Be sensible, but have fun! You guys should know the ropes, and if you have any issues or questions on what's acceptable or not, ask away!

The presents can be received anytime this week, since we all know people are busy over the holidays. No worries, let's just say they're hidden ^_~

Merry Christmas, everybody!

That is awesome!~

Just to clarify on this animal thing... We can actually get animals that are only native to a character's home world such as Rappigs, Huskras, Cheagles and so on?

[dissonates]

Yep, but since it has to be small, they'll likely be a) babies and b) insignificant to the source world itself, like it says above.

Awww, man! Way to ruin Christmas by not letting Yuri have his dog, Malnosso >:

... anyway, in more srs terms, considering where I took Yuri from, he still technically had "a certain sword" that another Vesperia character normally has with him at all times. Well, expect for the time he let Yuri borrow it, but yeah. While I don't think that other guy will pop up any time soon but it's still possible, so hrmm, is it alright for him to get that sword?

[dissonates]

I think I know what sword you're talking about xD and yeah, it's fine for him to have it. If a Duke comes along and gets huffy about it he and Yuri can negotiate, but with the power cap in place it's just like anyone getting their weapon, really.

Rappigs are for life, not just for xmas?

[man-and-toy.livejournal.com]

That is just brilliant ^_^

Reeve could get his floral handkerchief back mebee? A replica perhaps.

Or perhaps a big pink fatty moogle or materia (confuse/manipulate) :p

[knightofratatosk]

So could Emil get something like, say, one of his smaller monsters? I honestly can't think of anything else that would be important to him because LOL spoilers. @_@

[lucetimods]

Sure! It's hard for some characters, I know ^^;

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

Can Usagi get her transformation wand? She's been wanting it for awhile and BY GOLLY SHE'D HAVE SO MUCH FUN PLAYING JOKES ON PEOPLE!

[lucetimods]

.........THAT IS A FANTASTIC IDEA. DO THIS.

[way-to-midnight.livejournal.com]

Could Ruto's be the Spiritual Stone of Water? As in the Zora Engagement Ring? Or does that count as something too important despite it not having much of anything in the way of power stand-alone?

...And by small and insignificant, like a baby... what is the baby of the animal is about the side of a normal sized dog? Is that acceptable?

--Oh and can Haruki and Mark be delivered gifts to get when they get back from Mallynap?

[lucetimods]

Spiritual Stone is fine, plenty of characters get important artifacts here \o

Dog-size is also fine, we just don't want like. Uh. An elephant or something wandering around >_>;

The boys can have their gifts waiting for them when they get back.

[und-supercreeps.livejournal.com]

Let's see...

Could Trish get Coco Jumbo aka the turtle that has a Stand in it (it's a hotel room in its shell)? It's not a sentient animal, as it only gets a name in the Stand data book and doesn't do much other than contain people.

Kira wants one women's hand, nicely manicured.

I honestly can't think of anything for Dr. Ferdinand.

[lucetimods]

...O.o an entire hotel room? I'd have to say that's too big.

[reconciledtwins.livejournal.com]

If there's two people in one body, do they both get a present or do they get one for both of them?

[lucetimods]

One present per character no matter who they've got in their body. The Malnosso aren't that generous.

[chikaidestroyer]

Would a horse be considered too big? This is surprisingly difficult to think about. XD;

[dissonates]

Actually, I know a certain someone is getting an animal that will be horse-sized when it's fully grown, so that's fine.

[evil-for-fun.livejournal.com]

I can't think of anything better for Yuffie...

...Would a Non-working summon materia do? (She couldn't use it in CC, and having it again, and it not working would piss her off beyond everything)

[dissonates]

Sure \o

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

...Could Luc get a rune? Or maybe a rune piece or a book about them or...a pink shawl that looks suspiciously like Leknaat's.

It's really hard to think of stuff. XD;

[dissonates]

Think hard :3 You only get one thing~

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

How about a Crystal for Golbez? Doesn't matter which one, really.

[dissonates]

I forget what they're capable of, but that might be okay.

[gravity-splode.livejournal.com]

Would a Sniper Nobody be alright?

[dissonates]

As long as he doesn't go around sniping people >__>;

Seems like everyone's going for the pet idea. xD;

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

Would a Moon Crystal be suitable as a Christmas gift? Just as long as it's shining away prettily and not capable of summoning Gigas? Mun has nooo ideas.

[dissonates]

Sure thing \o

[lastsorceress.livejournal.com]

Would it be okay for Rinoa to get Angelo, or do you think that would be too big?

[dissonates]

I'm hesitant to agree to that since Yuri can't get his dog, but Simon already has Boota and Angelo isn't really a character someone would RP... so alright.

[death-orange.livejournal.com]

Can Cecil get a Black Chocobo? They fly.

[guidetoanuprising]

A bit on the morbid side, but could Ovan get an arm (seen at 0.31; also, spoilers if you haven't played through .hack//G.U.) with its accompanying weapon (although it's completely useless to him) as a Christmas present?

[vermified]

Wow, that is nice and morbid >_>; But yeah, that's fine~
