WHO || Wynn, any and all Knights not currently on missions (if you are uncertain if your character would be at the castle for this, ask!)
WHAT || Squiring Ceremony Afterparty
WHERE || Knights Headquarters, the Ballroom
WHEN || January 22, 2016, 6:00PM [backdated]
HOW || Prose OR Actionspam

The "afterparty" is rumored to be the real main event of the night. A black-tie affair in the lavish, opulent ballroom, it is every new Knight's chance to mingle and meet some of their new brothers in arms. Of course, a couple hours are provided following the ceremony for everyone to change, do hair and makeup, and choose from the vast array of formal attire in the closets of the balcony "dressing rooms" located at the top of spiraled staircases on either side of the ballroom. A separate dressing room exists for men and women, and they include full bathrooms (with, thankfully, very modern plumbing).

The squires are usually among the last to arrive, and the ballroom is full to the brim with a fancy array of people, of all shapes, sizes and species.

Hope you aren't shy. They're all here to meet you.

Feel free to make your own open threads for people to come congratulate your newly pledged knight.

ooc; also if your Knight wants to get all gussied up, you can make a Disguise (Cha) check for how good they were at hair/makeup/stylin', etc! This goes for... any time.

[Okay then.]

So which sect are you in?

[valdrin]

I'm not. They call us Freelancers.

[supertardiness]

Oh, right. Is that for like ... people who can't really pick one sect over all the others?

[cabot]

[ he looks a little insulted by that ] Or maybe it's for those of us who don't take well to being pigeonholed.

[supertardiness]

[Barry puts his foot in his mouth professionally, so the first look on his face is apologetic when he picks up on Val'drin's insult.]

No, that's what I meant. You have a lot of varied interests, so why commit to one sect when you can be ... flexible.

[valdrin]

Something like that, yes.

[supertardiness]

[Barry nods in agreement.]

Me, I'm not so varied. I'll probably wind up in the Hoard if everything works out.

[valdrin]

I suppose there are worse fates. At least their wing doesn't smell like a locker room.

[supertardiness]

Definitely a bonus. And they have really cool equipment.

[He's possibly already a little in love with the lab.]

[cabot]

Yes, yes, very shiny.

[supertardiness]

[And Barry is starting to get the impression that he's worn out his welcome so ... ]

Anyway. It's nice to meet you. Maybe we'll get on a mission together sometime.

[valdrin]

Indeed. Enjoy. [ he lifts his glass a little bit in salute and then takes a swig ]

[supertardiness]

[Barry nods again, and off he wanders to stuff his face with more snacks. /scene]
