WHO || Wynn, any and all Knights not currently on missions (brazil & nevada groups will be returned! 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 || May 1st, 2013, 6:00PM
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.

Oh, yes. I enjoy the work a great deal. Helping people is something I've felt drawn to for most of my life.

[celerystick]

That's a very noble cause.

[It's what she wants to do too, to help, to be a part of something. But at the same time, it's helping humans that she's most drawn to, what she knows. Non-humans are far more...commonplace here.]

[witchwoman]

Perhaps, but it can be a terrible burden. [Because all gifts come with a price.] But look at me going on and on about myself... Tell me about yourself- or what you know. I know the memories are always foggy. How did you come to find the Knights?

[celerystick]

Oh, no, it's fine.

[Because the more she talks, the less she has to, and the more she learns.]

I was found by Miss O'Keefe while she was on a mission. I was...more than a little bit lost, to say the least.

[witchwoman]

I think we all felt that way at first. [She says with a light laugh.] Well I've very glad that you've found your way to us, Sydney. You seem like a lovely girl.

[She manages to smile, despite her reservations. Myri seems like a nice person, strange physical features aside.

She has to work with these...people. There are no alchemists here. She'll have to get used to it.]

Thanks. That...means a lot.
