All right, so I posted about ideas for halloween (in game) a few days ago since my guild is having a costume contest. I got so many great ideas from members of this community!! Anyway I couldn't find the clothes for all of them, but I did manage to scrape together FOUR whole costumes. Now I just have to choose which one. And.. I can't! Some of these ideas were mine, some were from helpful girls in this community. So anyways.. help! place your votes! ^_^

the pirate costume. mersipan suggested I go pirate, which sounds fun because I love pirates. I tried to make this costume original, and it's not just the buccaneer shirt, it's some other weird piratey-shirt (if anyone needs to know what it is, I'll log in and check later.) This will be accompanied by my green wing macaw of course!

this is a witch costume, brilliantly thought up by q_bomb79, and then I thought I remembered there was an in-game broom somewhere.. so I looked it up and grinded farmers till that broom dropped. And this costume will be accompanied by my black cat :)

this is the "angel" costume, lol. I have this cute halo, plus a wedding dress. I thought it looked cute because my nelf has white hair. Also, the pet I will have out for this costume is probably my bunny!

the farmer costume. Since, while grinding farmers, the shovel also dropped. And then I bought the hat in IF. I'll probably have my frog pet out for this one. ooohh, or i could get that chicken!! that's even better. Never had a reason till now, as it might be obvious I have way too many pets :)

It's great though because -- ALL of this set me back probably only 15g, which is totally worth it for me-- FOUR new costumes, lol.. Need..more..bankslots.. gah!
And, as always, Thank you so much for your input :)

Do you know about the pitchfork? I got one the other day, and it seems better for the farmer costume than a shovel... to me, at least...

October 24 2006, 02:20:28 UTC 5 years ago

Wow! actually I didn't know about that- when I was grinding the farmers, some of them did have pitchforks and I was thinking "too bad they don't drop those" lol! I'll try and get a pitchfork. Also, I wonder.. That could go really well with a devil costume, too.

The farmers' pitchfork is a polearm; i think (based on the fact that you can't train swords?) that you probably can't train polearms either. ;.;

i love these costumes! :) I am hopefully going as a Druid on my hunter- got Wildheart spaulders (won 'em fair and square on a greed when no one needed,) voodoo robes, Fang boots/pants/gloves, and a crummy green cloak to look like a 'hide of the wild' XD As well as a dagger and shiny book-looking offhand. I was planning on getting an Embrace of the Lycan for the helm buuut I can't solo my way to it, you need to do the stairs event in ZF to get to that boss. ;.;

I think the angel one might work best, honestly, because it's the most creative.. i'd suggest maybe looking into a cloak for it? I know there are a number of short, split cloaks that would work shape-wise for wings (offhand i think Huntsman's and Hulking cloaks have the shape i am thinking of,) if there were a white one, it might have a nice wing-ish effect? just a thought. :) In any case good luck! <3

October 24 2006, 04:06:31 UTC 5 years ago

Woww yes, that would work great with the angel costume. I was looking at spaulders for wings, and I just kept wishing for the shoulders of Faith, lol! But a white split-cloak, that would be perfect. :) Thanks!

Hehe I like your idea of going as a druid. I was also thinking of going as a level one shaman--just rolling one and transferring all the clothes and that little mace over to my alliance.

I spent wayyy too much time looking for costumes for my guild's party this week.

I have several options
-- Tree
-- Pirate
-- Pimp (I have a ho lined up)
-- Baseball player
-- Taxidermist shop

(the last one's a joke, but Will of Arlokk + stormrage or wolfshead helm, wildheart shoulders, etc.)

October 24 2006, 04:08:23 UTC 5 years ago

Lol! taxidermist shop is funny.

I was thinking of going as a shrubbery since that's what I wear every raid anyway. And then I was thinking I could go as a moose, since I jsut got my stormrage hat! heehee.

Anyway, some of those ideas are hilarious :)

As you can probably tell, I spent wayy to much time costuming too, lol.

October 24 2006, 04:00:45 UTC 5 years ago

I think I like the angel one best. That's my vote!

October 24 2006, 04:09:43 UTC 5 years ago

thanks so much for your opinion hun! i've now got equal votes for witch and for angel, hehe :)

October 24 2006, 04:38:51 UTC 5 years ago

I would probably dress up as a witch, but the angel is my favorite; it would be especially cute on a little, blonde human.

October 24 2006, 07:39:50 UTC 5 years ago

hehe, you're right. that would be really cute!

October 24 2006, 04:50:51 UTC 5 years ago

The angel is soooooo pretty!

*whispers* Isn't there a white cockatiel somewhere, or perhaps a white owl? As a pet suggestion.

But the Witch is so awesome because of the shoulders. XD *can't decide*

October 24 2006, 05:25:27 UTC 5 years ago

I was thinking the spirit of summer pet would be a good angelic companion too.

I vote the witch, such cute ideas btw

October 24 2006, 07:40:38 UTC 5 years ago

Thanks and thanks! <3

October 24 2006, 06:21:26 UTC 5 years ago

Whee I love dressing up my chars! And good to see someone else does it too and so well. Lovely costumes. For some twisted reason I like the last one a lot.
Pirate is a classic and always sweet but hmm it is also quite popular so maybe there will be other pirates as well.

October 24 2006, 07:44:32 UTC 5 years ago

Yeah I'm sure there will be plenty of pirates. I plan on wearing it a lot around IF, cause it's so cute, but I probably won't wear it to the contest for that reason.

Hahah yeah the shovel still cracks me up.

Also I am trying to get my boyfriend's pally to go as Mario!

My hunter has the angel one going, but she's accompanied it with a polearm called "flame wrath", which is essentially a flaming trident. Bwahaha.

October 24 2006, 07:46:42 UTC 5 years ago

Wow, that sounds awesome. :)

My druid, as I've discovered today, can't equip a polearm, wah. hehe. Although, I'm sure the flaming tridents was bop anyway, I didn't look it up or anything but if it looks that cool it's usually bop, heh.

I vote for the witches costume, I think it's adorable! :)

October 24 2006, 07:47:08 UTC 5 years ago

thanks! <3

and your icon is reeeally cute.

October 24 2006, 10:42:54 UTC 5 years ago

Go the witch, it's so original.

October 24 2006, 22:12:56 UTC 5 years ago

thanks! I think I will :)

October 24 2006, 12:16:33 UTC 5 years ago

Ok, those are SO great! I think I like the farmer and angel best, since they're most unexpected. Particularly farmer with chicken!

October 24 2006, 22:15:19 UTC 5 years ago

hehe yeah, I have been enjoying hanging out in IF as a farmer with my new chicken. I feel like a Saldean. ;)

Thanks for your input! <3

October 24 2006, 13:08:15 UTC 5 years ago

These are great! Awesome job!

October 24 2006, 22:15:49 UTC 5 years ago

thanks so much! <3

October 24 2006, 13:45:55 UTC 5 years ago

My vote goes for the angel and the farmer, because those are just so cool, and I doubt that many thought about them. :-D

October 24 2006, 22:17:04 UTC 5 years ago

hehe yeah, I'm so curious to see who will show up wearing what! I don't think I'll see any other angels or farmers, lol.

thanks for voting too! <3

October 24 2006, 21:42:26 UTC 5 years ago

go witch

I like the witch, I doubt anyone else will have a broom, too obscure.
everyone who doesn't do pirate with a wand or the candy will do pirate anyways, you won't be original. I like the angel, but I think the witch is better.

October 24 2006, 22:21:23 UTC 5 years ago

Re: go witch

Yeah I think pirate is one of the more obvious things to do, it really would only work if you went through ALL that work to get the buccaneer's hat because then you'd be the only one with it. But I don't wanna trash my BB rep!

Although wands/candies/transformations aren't allowed in the contest- we gotta do all that work of finding the perfect armor, so there won't be any of *those* pirates.

I am leaning towards the witch. If I hadn't gotten that broom, I'd probably do something else, but broom + black cat = awesome witchyness. :)

Thanks for your input also <3

November 5 2006, 14:35:48 UTC 5 years ago

these are awesome!

what's the name of your nonstandard pirate shirt? i must get my hands on one! =D

November 5 2006, 19:31:56 UTC 5 years ago

yay I was kind of hoping someone would ask, lol! I've since remembered what it is, and it's the Imperial Red Tunic. And those are the Imperial Red Pants that match it too :)
