I'll start off this thing, then, since it was my suggestion.
Prizes could be weird things you normally don't get, like Berry Juice, Casteliacones, Lave Cookies, Ragecandybar, Old Gateau, Sacred Ash, Sweet Heart, Float Stone, Gracidea, some type of fossil (we can decide if we want them to be able to revivie the fossils later), Mushrooms, Nuggets, Pearls, Comet Shard, Heart Scale, Honey (same as fossils), Pretty Wing, Rare Bone, the Relic things, the Shoal things, Stardust, Star Piece and Shards.
I would like one thing to be sorta purely Solastella, purely for this winter holiday, to make it special. Problem is, I can't think of what that thing would be. A picture or something?
I dunno what we want to do for the celebration either. Graz suggested twelve days of Christmas.

twelve days of christmas would be neat!
i kind of like the idea of there being a big thread for a bunch of characters to interact?? since the site is still pretty small it wouldn't get too hectic and it'd be a fun little IC thing maybe. it could be a like a big christmas party or whatever.
OR WAIT OMG SECRET SANTA!! we could do a secret santa i love thsoe omg like everyone (can be IC or OOC, whichever we'd rather do) makes a list of things they want just as a guideline and then SECRETLY the characters/members are assigned people to make stuff for and then near the end of the month gifts are exchanged!!

We have to be careful not to simply use Christmas - maybe an 'officially something of winter party'? But I do like the idea of a party; might get some people role playing.
As for secret santa...I don't know. I never liked that in real life. It also might be difficult since we have so few members and a lot of them are busy during the holidays.

true yeah, maybe just "Holiday Party" or whatever
i kind of figure that for the secret santa, if we did it, we'd want it to be mixed up with the party? like at the party the characters who opted in would have gotten something for someone and would have to find their person and give them the gift. that way they start off with someone specific to talk with and maybe make friends with! doesn't have to be anything but just an IC necklace or home-made item or what-not, so we don't really have to worry about the members being busy any more than we would just doing the party and wondering whether or not they would rp. we could do an OOC member-to-member secret santa too, but if you don't think anyone would participate idk?

Yeah. I was thinking something about midwinter party, since almost every culture celebrates that, but then, this is an island region...maybe, since we orginally had dry and wet seasons, the change between dry and wet? If that makes any sense.
Maybe we could do that...'The Solastella Region blah blah party for trainers, bring some item with you'. And then you get told who to give it to when you walk in (or you get given an item to give to someone, since I know some characters wouldn't bring anything). It'd be cool if the items were some of the ones I listed above - they could have the ice cream and cookies for snacks maybe? I dunno.
I don't know - you might've noticed how dead the site is right now, I think we'd have to be happy with just managing to give gifts somehow.

I'm always up for a Yule themed event =D The RP site that I used to be on had IC gatherings ever once and a while and it was a fair amount of fun. (Partially cause some of the characters were so awkward and that was fun to 'watch')
In terms of a Secret Santa type thing, I would say a OOC one might be better, just because most people don't really have any IC items right now. (Unless we were allowed to get items specifically for the Secret Santa, but that adds more complexity right there)

Okay, so IC party is pretty much confirmed.
And honestly, I think the Secret Santa, IC or OOC is a bit too complex for us right now. At this point, I'm thinking it might be best to go with Graz's twelve days of something plan, or just give out one gift per character (from my list above) OOC. I mean, Graz or Crim have to give out gifts, I'd imagine, and they aren't here much.

that might be true. i guess with only a few active people, it'd be tough to do a secret santa of any real scale. maybe next year???
but yeah, 12 days of christmas/holiday/whatevs would probably be best all things considered, as nice as it would be to do more. thinking about it idk if the party would even be that big of a hit with so few characters and less active folks to play them

Yeah, it's a shame. If we want the party to be any sort of character building, we'll have to set in up now in General and ask Graz/Crim to move it later.

Yes, finishing Kenzie is a very good idea and I support it.
I'll make the thread tonight, probably, in General.
