Overlord Island Beach Party Extravaganza!

Post by G »

Image

On Saturday, Oct. 17th, Join your Overlord, G'nort Dragoon-Talanador and lovely girlfriend Mercedes Velasquez, as they host a beach party on Overlord Island.

"It'll be too cold!" You say! That's true! However, Wizards. Mages. Conjurers, and Enchanters! That's right, the magic-users on retainer for the Arena will be called in to bubble up the island in a tropical temperature to ensure the waters around the island will be at a very comfortable setting for swimming and sunning. Even at night!

Hungry? We're grilling! Scared of the dark? BIG ASS BONFIRE! Bored? There'll be dueling, too! Don't like any of this? You're not invited! It's all good! We don't care and are just going to have a fun time no matter what! And everyone is invited unless you're going to be a sourpuss!

Know what helps cancel out being a sourpuss? DRINKING! There'll be a TON of alcohol there for you to help forget that you're a grumpy stumpy!

This is for a limited time only because I've already been challenged and there's no telling how long I'll be able to hold one of these shindigs!

(OOC Note: Prizes, setting description, incentives, pictures will be coming soon. :) )

(This is the event thread for the Overlord Island Beach Party. Dueling will still take place in the RDI Arena chatroom, but the setting will be the Overlord Island. Feel free to post outfits or contributions to the events in this thread.)
Image
Warded rings will be set up in the sands! Not up for a duel? Just come enjoy the sun and a swim! Food and drink will be provided!

If you can't catch a boat out to the Island a portal will be set up at the Arena to get you there! So come out to the Overlord Island on Saturday, Sept. 17th, all night long!

Image
Tiki torches light the entire area along the beach, with a huge bonfire set up for later in the night.
Image
Then head over to the tables where gift bags containing a lot of wonderful items are set up for everyone. Only one per person, please!!
Image
Sections of the beach have been set aside for both participants in the dueling, as well as for the spectators. A grass hut bar is ready to take your orders for all manners of drinks you may want, though with the tropical theme, colorful beverages are the specialties. The tropical punch comes highly recommended, though it may or may not have a bit more kick than one would think.
ImageImage
ImageImage
Image
For those who may be hungry, there are various snacks and treats available, pineapple and ham pizza, sushi rolls, kabobs and other delicious items. There will also be plenty of delicious cupcakes, including some with coconut encrusting the pineapple and cherry topped frosting, pina colada cupcakes, and tropical cupcake kabobs.

ImageImage
For the hungrier ones, there will be a pit where a full pig shall be roasted, ready to be carved and served to your liking, if you so choose. There will also be other, fresh off the grill, type items for everyone to enjoy!
ImageImage
After you've stacked your plate with all the delicious goodies, you are invited to take a seat at one of our large, comfortable tables where you can prepare to watch those who are showing off their skills in one of the several rings on the beach. Also, there will be several small bonfires and one final giant one for everyone to relax and enjoy their meals.
ImageImage
Image
There will be other things for guests to do, such as jet skiing, enjoying our imported hot tubs, nighttime scuba diving where the bottom of the sea is not only magically lit, but also will be heated in the general vicinity of the island, itself! So enjoy a summer vacation in mid-Autumn!
ImageImageImage
For the callers, a lovely area has been set up, surrounded by more tiki torches and a comfortable couch set underneath a cloth canopy with a view of every ring.
Image
Enjoy the dueling and our Overlord Island Beach Party Extravaganza!!

Dearest Over-G,

I am writing today with some questions I have about the party you are throwing, that I hope you can answer. Are you ready? Because I am! Okay! Here goes!

1. What happened to Rand? How did you overthrow him? Was it something he said? Are you very very VERY mad like I get when Grenny says dumb things and I jump on his back and drum on his head? Was there vast quantities of bloodloss? Did he expire because if so I plan to resurrect him so he can rechallenge you for the ancient rite of OverTwerp and I will laugh when he punches you. Ha ha! I am laughing now just thinking about it! No, but seriously, is he dead? I mean like DEAD-dead? Not quasi-dead? I hope not. He is nice to me and I like him. I don't always like you so much. But only sometimes.

2. This is my sad face Over-G :( This is what I look like when you make me sad. In the face.

2a. Are you feeling very sorry about making me sad in the face? You should! You're the Over-G now! You have obligations!

3. I miss Rand. Do you think he misses me? Oh wait he can't miss me because HE IS NO LONGER ALIVE! WHAT DID YOU DO WITH HIS BODY YOU FIEND?! YOU BURIED HIM UNDER THE CEMENT WHERE YOU PUT YOUR FIRST WIFE DINCHA?!

3b. Okay, I am sorry. I did not mean to use the caps. Jared? He's my IT guy. He says that using the caps in the communications with the meatpuppets on the Stratoswebs is considered screaming. I said "I know that, dummy. I AM SCREAMING!" And I was screaming at you just then, Over-G. You should know that.

4. I am not screaming anymore. I'm thinking of what to wear to the Overparty. You will have to excuse Anubis' absence, though. He has to work that weekend so he will not be attending and since you murdered Rand in cold blood and ain't nobody gonna find where you planted him, he's OUT as a date. I will have to call Sandy and see what he's doing. This is assuming Sandy isn't dead too, you sicko. I've seen the way you've eyeballed him in the past. Don't think I haven't!

5. Do you think if Sandy stands me up you might tell me where Rand is buried so I can plant Sandy there (assuming he's still breathing and then I kill him for standing me up) and this way when the coppers find the bodies they won't know there are two of us that killed? They will think it's a serial killer! We haven't had one of those in Rhy'Din for a loooooooooooong time! Ooh! I'm getting all excited in the brainpan now!

6. Uh oh. Don't tell my stupid brother Gren that I said I would kill Sandy for standing me up because he accuses me of murdering EVERYONE in the known universe and that's just silly. I can't be in two places at one time. I'm not a multi-tasker AT ALL, G-Over.

7. I'm going to insist that the other party attendees don't try to shoo little Horus out to sea because he will be with me. Our baby boy can't swim and as it is Anpu was nervous about the baby pool I bought for him because he said he might drown or I might. Anpu is overprotective, bless his black heart.

8. I'm terrified of drowning.

8c. I can't swim.

8 1/2 z. There won't be swimming activities will there?

Almost 9. Oooooooooooooh God, I hope I don't get wet! I will get ANGRY in the face if that happens!

9 Finally. I noticed in all the images of the mediocre food you will be serving that there doesn't seem to be any utensils or like dishes but everything seems to be in fruit which has been carved into bowls. Is there some meaning behind this that I am missing here? Can't you people afford good china? You don't have to be so cheap, G-man-Over. It's a PARTY. You make sacrifices when you invite people to your shindigs! And yeah it might mean you eat some noodles and rice for dinner the rest of the month if you have to just to afford it but you don't cheap out on your guests!

10. I forgot what else I was going to ask because I am on the roof looking for my diamond earring Anpu bought me on the anniversary of the time we first hunted together. We were up here the other night, things got a LITTLE out of hand when he started to get frisky and the next thing I know my diamond is going down the chimney with me along for the ride and Anpu said the roof is off-limits now. But, he meant AFTER I find my other earring. Don't tell him I was up here neither. You always tell people the things I say when I don't want you to, Gover.

And don't forward this letter to that insane assistant of yours neither! I don't like her! I don't know her enough to hate her but I'm fairly sure if I did know her I would like her and I don't want to!

I knew you first! You are who I complain to! NOT HER!

I have to go tell Jewelsie now what I'm wearing so we don't clash.

Bye Gover!

It's Tara Rynieyn-soon-to-be-Karos!

Bye!

He was alive when I defeated him, but I cannot say with certainty if he is or is not now as I have not seen him since. He did look a little depressed, so you never know.
Tara wrote:2. This is my sad face Over-G :( This is what I look like when you make me sad. In the face.
I have seen your sad face before. It appears to be less than happy.
Tara wrote:2a. Are you feeling very sorry about making me sad in the face? You should! You're the Over-G now! You have obligations!
I'm not. My obligations are to just be awesome, which I am.
Tara wrote:3. I miss Rand. Do you think he misses me? Oh wait he can't miss me because HE IS NO LONGER ALIVE! WHAT DID YOU DO WITH HIS BODY YOU FIEND?! YOU BURIED HIM UNDER THE CEMENT WHERE YOU PUT YOUR FIRST WIFE DINCHA?!
See answer to #1. Also, I cannot speak for whether or not he misses you, but perhaps his aim is off?
Tara wrote:3b. Okay, I am sorry. I did not mean to use the caps. Jared? He's my IT guy.

And I was screaming at you just then, Over-G. You should know that.
Normally when people are screaming at me it's usually along the lines of "YES, YES, OH GOD, OH G! YES! MORE! OH GOD, OH GOD, OH GOD!" so I am used to hearing screaming.

You are not screaming anymore because you are not with me. Wear clothes. I will not be saddened by the absence of Anubis. At all. Ever. Sandy is an acceptable replacement.

I might recommend a graveyard. Most killers in Rhydin are third rate, unimaginative and unimpressive, so it doesn't surprise me that we have not had one recently. But then, I don't tend to keep up with the local news.

Gren loves you for who you are, all your faults and all your positives. Don't worry about him.

Insist politely. I would not like to have another incident like the last one with you at my party celebrating my greatness.
Tara wrote:8. I'm terrified of drowning.
Don't swim.

Don't swim.

Yes, but you don't have to swim.

Stay away from the water.

There will be utensils, napkins, plates, bowls, etc. there for the guests. One does not generally share those images because they are boring.

Check the fireplace for the diamond. Also, I don't reveal our conversations to people because there's nothing that anyone needs to know.
Tara wrote:And don't forward this letter to that insane assistant of yours neither! I don't like her! I don't know her enough to hate her but I'm fairly sure if I did know her I would like her and I don't want to!
My insane assistant, I believe you're referring to Gabby, is scarier than you. So I cannot promise I won't share this letter if she asks. However, I do not anticipate her asking, unless she thinks it's an order form for cupcakes.
Tara wrote:I knew you first! You are who I complain to! NOT HER!
I think you actually complain to anyone who will listen, to be terribly honest.
Tara wrote:I have to go tell Jewelsie now what I'm wearing so we don't clash.
Remember, clothes. Wear clothes. Made from some type of cloth.

He will never marry you. Sorry to break that to you.
