King and Queen's Horrorween [Offical Thread]

On this most "chilly" Halloween...



It's nearly that time of the year again, when the corpses rattle restlessly in their caskets, when the ghouls sound a foul cry against the dark and cloudy midnight sky. It's nearly that time of the year when my husband rises from the Underworld to spread terror and laughter among the people of Tyria. He has spent the last couple of long cold nights trying to think up a new repertoir of fiendish jokes and it has left him screaming mad, yelling in the middle of the night and impatiently walking the halls of the frozen palace over and over again. While the King prepares in his own way for the event, the Queen is delighted to announce an alliance between herself and the master of events, Daniel Frozenwind. Yes it was the always cheerful party animal himself that approached the Queen and asked her if she would like to work together for this frightful occasion. Sensing a unique opportunity to make this the most memorable Halloween in the history of Tyria, the Queen thankfully agreed. More details will be released soon. So get your pumpkin crowns ready. It is almost time for an event that will be to DIE for. Ahahahaha! ~ Mad Queen Malafide



Thats right! this events going to be of the finest quality! gifts are to be won
spooks are to be had!, beware the wicker man, and bring your friends! this is NOT an event you will want to miss in a hurry!, The theme of course is Halloween, with a twist but what could that be?

Key Activities


The Wicker Ritual

A very long time ago, the druids of the Maguuma had a ritual of autumn, gathering the dead wood of the high plains and out skirts of there jungle they would bind it together in the form of a human, and offer the effigy to Melandru for renewal, thus the ash would rain down on there beloved jungle and provide nutrition. Much time has passed and the ritual has lost its meaning, constructing the wicker man during the time of autumn while the Monarch of Madness corrupting presence is at hand had adverse effects on the worshipers of Melandru and so the practise of constructing wicker men ceased for a time. Until a certain Queen had ideas of her own... How do YOU corrupt a snowman?



The Nights of the Minipets

This event is run by Bladeradio, it consists of giving away 400 minipets over three days (30th 31st and 1st) along side our event.

Hay Daniel, i see you need more costume contest judges. I could be one if you need. And if there is anything else I could do, please let me know.

Zombie Elf, thats awesome. maybe ill stop for the event between farming and trading

I can be a costume judge if you need, also.

Can't wait for this event nonetheless.

~Frozenwind

Hope to see everyone there.

Hey Daniel ~
BladeRadio agreed to donate to the [Rain] Alliance Halloween Video competition in exchange we are making their Halloween video and since you are working closely with them I'm guessing we will have footage that will be helpful for the vid u plan to make -let me know if later you end up needing extra footage cuz u know I'll be filming u :P

Ohhh, this year’s Halloween event looks fantastic, unfortunately I decided to get married on Halloween so will not be in attendance, hope everyone has a great time, Mr frozenwind holds the most fantastic soirees..... smell ya

Hey Daniel!!! Hey Malafide!!! Great Job Looking forward to Horrorween!! Btw if you guys dont know this or not but it's at almost 500 Mini pets and well over 5.6 Million gps worth of them and as Tesla is fond of saying... They dont stack LOL! But Daniel, Malafide and Kitiara You all Rock!!!

Very excited about the party Daniel! er I mean King Frost
This party is sure to be a blast and grand location for anyone filming for the halloween video contest (in fact I wonder if you could mention it in the video comments)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alZG4WD4ujY&fmt=18

LOL good one Roc

Yes Daniel you must know you will be a star in our video we are making for BladeRadio's video for Nights of the Minipets, that being said I will gladly give you footage you might want from what we film especially since I plan on filming you.../ponders...ummm do I need to speak to your agent first? >_>


lol.

^
*pretends to be Dan's agent*

You can only use him if you pay me 100k+ 50e for every 10 minutes Daniel is in the clip.


-- ontopic --
I want to see the vids :<

anddd some news about the TexMod:
Basics of LA are done
Tonics are done (will send a screenshot from the Candy tomorrow)
Minipets are done
Some additional stuff , working on that

Hey Jimme if u are doing all that hard texmod work then are u posting it like I've seen before in the past? let me know, I assume Daniel wants it in the vid

as for your attempt at playing agent...did u know he's asked me to do a project for him? and I didn't ask to be paid...but now if he will allow u to charge that much...I can have my agent call u about my billing

lool jk

This sounds like a blast! But I am confused about one thing regarding the costume contest. That is, how does one make a costume? Is it through the use of Tonics or Festival Hats? Sorry to be ignorant...

Nah just take a look at the pics of Daniel Frozenwind on the the first post, that is what he means, by selecting armor and dying it creatively, using helms and such you can look like you are wearing a halloween costume...oh here I had a halloween costume competition once at a party I threw with Perynne, here is a pic of the entrants made by her

Hey Daniel, do you need a reference even for the costume contest judges position?

Applicants with references will take top priority. However, I believe you can submit applications without one.

this should be fun, ill try to be there

Yeah, thanks. But i dont see how a costume contest judge will need a reference. Its not as if you have to trust them with materials or such. They only need to be there to look at a costume and rate it. I believe the refernce is for people if they have been a judge in a costume contest before so they have some experience, which sounds reasonable, i guess.

Sorry for the lack of updated info recently, im quite ill but hey ho

Just so you guys know, i will be adding some more more activity sections and the schedule on the 21st.

Hope to see you soon

~Frozenwind

Dan i would say count me in as photographer once again but the 31st i will be celebrating my birthday (which is the 27th) with friends so i can't

woot! i love halloween i'll def. be there.

Finishing the mod this weekend <3

The Queen will hopefully finish the trailer for the event this weekend. (And when I speak of myself, I of course mean that I'll be flogging my minions until it is finished.)

Preview:






And Gwen wanted to say "hi" , but for some reason she couldn't .. :


ofcourse there's lots more, but you'll have to find out yourself in-game =]

That is amazing. I'm certainly looking forward to this modification. Daniels face on the ship is a hilarious touch and I'm sure there shall be plenty of other ghoulish little touches.

By the way, Gwen looks even more spooky than she does normally. I didn't even think that was possible.

Daniel Daniel u bad snowman!!!! U gave me a hard time for missing ur party and u have yet to put a schedule up!!!!!!!! /retracts horns...u know my motherboard died so I'm sure u were teasing me but seriously- did u really already give away over half u prizes and not post u were doing stuff already? o_O

*heard u were going on a little vacation and coming back the 31st? Let us know the deal I installed GW on my hubby's comp just to make sure i didn't miss ur events but u gotta know i have to take out some little kiddos on halloween night so please post ur party times (GMT?) so I do my best not to miss ur event?

TY *hugs*

Alas it is true,

I went on a massive promotional binge give out when Lions Arch changed over 2 days, half my stuff went then, but i can make it back =)

The Schedule is being an absolute pain, due to the mad king arriving at least twice in it(got to re-shuffle things)

When i get back from my holiday (29th) i will be in information giving Hard mode.

Regards

Mad King Frost.


P.s LA now or DIE!
