(Yaaay! One more to our almighty collection, let's hope this one is one works out! Don't mind my awful writing skills, someone had to write the intro... XD) It was Halloween's night and most of neopians were out and about trick-or-treating and playing! It was exactly what was expected from this night...pranks and candy for all! Even Haunted Woods was filled with braver neopians who thought it would be more exciting exploring that area in this special date! But Sophie the Swamp Witch hated it, Halloween was nothing more than a laugh and excuse to act silly in her opinion! Once it was a respected date, now it was nothing more than a costume party! The witch, isolated inside her hut as usual, threw hideous ingredients in her cauldron to form a potion that would turn whoever drunk it into the costume it was wearing, it would be the perfect lesson for the trick-or-treaters who knocked on her door tonight! To Sophie’s satisfaction, no one came…or at least she thought so! When the ixi fell asleep, a mysterious black figure slipped inside the hut, the creature with large usul ears snatches an empty flask and filled it with the potion inside the cauldron! “The night is only a child!” the Shadow Usul cackled admiring the shinny green liquid inside the flask. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So yeah, lame intro...I know. XD Okay, so here it's how it works: -The adventure starts on the Haunted Woods; -Post normally; -You are allowed to use original characters or the ones that already exist on the Neo world; -Careful with your number of characters, be careful not to let anyone hanging; -Please, do not consider your canon the universal one. Not all users know the story behind your OCs and wasting several posts explaining the story behind them will lose sight of the RP; -No godmodding, you are only allowed to post as the characters you are under control of; -No killing other user's characters without permission, same goes for dating. You may PM the other user or give them the chance to choose by their character's actions; -Keep things clean and family friendly, and have FUN!

(YAY Sae and Krimz! SO glad to have you two as well! WHoo!) "Come one, come all! Come and witness the fantastic magic tricks performed by the Gypsy Camp, only tonight on Hallows Eve!" The wocky chanted around Haunted Woods, pointing toward the camp surrounded by creepy trees not far away. "Have your fortune told! Enjoy some music and dancing! Be amazed by our incredible illusions!" The playful gypsy yelled, swinging her tambourine happily, attracting all sorts of visitors to their show.

Stepping into the gypsy camp were three figures: two tall, elegant Maraquan Aishas - no, it was the Queen of Altador and her sister, Xandra, dressed as Isca and Caylis. Holding her mother's hand, a young Princess Amira - that is, Princess Saeryennan of Altador, at the age of thirteen - smiled in delight as she saw the gypsies perform.
The Green Wocky, Kalara, Queen of Altador, sat down on a log, still holding the young Royal Cybunny's hand. The Xweetok, dressed as Caylis, sat on the other side of the princess. Saeryennan was very excited. They had come to the Haunted Woods for one reason: the gypsy festival. She, in particular, was looking forward to the gypsy ballet, where they told stories through their dance acts.

I think I'll try this out with my relatively recently created character, Ichabod Tannhauser. Also, Whitney Tungsten, Defender of Neopia, Opera Division. This is my first RP, so bear with me. I'll come back later.

(YAAY! Hope you guys join soon!) "Care to see your future?" The wocky gypsy grabbed hold of the cybunny dressed as Princess Amira's paw, not before "accidentally" cutting through the princess' bag of neopoints, making some of them fall. "Oooh, I see..." She began analyzing the paw's lines while some of the camp's well trained petpets snatched the neopoints on the floor. "You've crossed mountains to reach your destiny here at Haunted Woods, how brave (or stupid)! I'm afraid to tell you this but, it seems tonight won't be the luckiest one for you!" The wocky shrugged. "But do not fear, young one! I lived with bad luck my entire life, can't be THAT bad, hm?"

Saeryennan gasped, out of both surprise and horror. First of all, if anything important was to happen tonight, she herself should have foreseen it. And...bad luck? What was here? As far as she knew, her family wasn't leaving the gypsy camp during their visit for any reason.
"Excuse me," she said to the fortune teller, "but I am Saeryennan, Princess of Altador." She curtsied politely. "And..." She sank to a whisper. Maybe her mother wouldn't care, but Xandra definitely didn't want Saeryennan spreading around the fact that she had prophetic visions. And what if her father found out? He would be furious at her for blabbing what he considered to be a family secret.
"I have...sort of...visions...of the future," she whispered. "If something bad was to happen concerning my kingdom or my family, including myself, I would have foreseen it. Why did I not?"
"Saeryennan, what are you doing?" Xandra scolded. "Listen, we have no proof she has any real power. It's probably nothing."
The princess sighed in relief. Xandra had definitely not heard what she'd said, or she would be hopping mad.

"The hands don't lie!" The wocky warned Saeryennan with a somewhat offended tone. "Your life is defined by a line only, it tells the past and the future, you can read them how much you want, they won't change! But I believe your visions aren't under your control, hm? What would be the fun in that! Sadly, I can't see my future myself!" The wocky giggled and showed her palms, there the lines were interrupted by some scars, probably because of the Gypsy's bad luck she's cursed with. But even though that, she showed the markings proudly, a typical gypsy attitude...
(LOL, Tia Dalma is coming in my mind right now! XD)

A green Scorchio walked into the camp. He was pale, though. As if he had had a stressing night. He had a tween jacket on, and was clutching a brown briefcase so tightly, you could see the outline of his bones. "Excuse me," he said. "I am Ichabod Tannhauser. Would you mind if I stayed the night --" And there he cut off, for he had seen the gypsies. The last thing he wanted was to spend the night with gypsies. But he needed a place to stay, for the night was dangerous. So he finished his sentence, "-- here?"

"Why, of course yes!" All the gypsies immediatly turned to the scorchio and pulled him further inside the camp, offering him food, water, pillows, cushions, coats...gypsies were sure weird!

Both Xandra and Kalara gasped when the gypsy mentioned Saeryennan's visions.
"S...Saery," Xandra began, "you - you told her about your powers?! Do you have any idea how dangerous that could be?! You can't just tell Neopians at random, someone very bad might find out and force you to tell them the future! And with the possibility of Queen Katriana coming back, we really don't want that."
"I - I'm sorry Xandra," the princess said, trembling.
"Now, let's just enjoy the ballet," Xandra continued, muttering "I sure hope she doesn't try to tell my fortune."
Queen Kalara was conflicted. Should she tell King Altador about this? On one hand, it seemed only right he should know, but Saeryennan had already had a lecture from Xandra and certainly didn't need one from her father, who would repeat everything Xandra had said.
That was when she noticed the Green Scorchio. He seemed in need of help. Kalara made a mental note to inform her husband and his council. She was sure they would gladly extend the kingdom's generosity to other parts of the world.
