Halloween Mascarade

29.10.2023

Heroes of Sarnaut!

It is the end of October now. There are dark shadows crawling everywhere, black cats run along the roads, skeletons and witches roam the streets… That means Halloween is approaching Sarnaut! Halloween is the day when everyone laughs at the Death's face and commemorates the Twelve Great Martyrs and those who are gone forever. It's a feast of life amidst the misty twilight. Let us glorify the Light and celebrate by having a colorful mascarade!

Try to rummage through your wardrobes and choose an outfit that would scare Nihaz himself or make the Elven Princess Daguta jealous! It is not necessary to use the Halloween costumes that will be offered by our beautiful Holiday Committee members; on the contrary, the main thing is that you look great in any costume you have at hand! It doesn’t matter whether you want to become a Witch, a Viking or a Forest Fairy - any costume is perfect for our competition!

CONTEST RULES

► Your submission must be sent between the 29th October and 19th of November.

► Take a screenshot corresponding to the theme of the «Halloween Mascarade» contest.

► Upload the screenshot to a picture-hosting site of your choice (such as imgur.com) and share the link in the related contest thread.

► Make sure that the picture is accessible. We won't use a Ouija board just to ask spirits what is depicted on your screenshot!

► One user can only participate once (only one screenshot per user). Violation of this rule will result in disqualification.

► The screenshot should show your character in costume of your choice, without UI icons. Bonus points if your post contains:

a short story describing the choice of your costume or related to your character wearing this costume (English only, so everyone can enjoy it)
an atmospheric background that matches your costume. Foul Dale is perfect for scary vampires and witches, the Pyramid of Tep or the sands of Suslanger are perfect for Egyptian mummies and pharaohs, green Ammer lands will match perfectly with the Greek Heroes and the beautiful Irene and its palaces are perfect for the royals or their brave knights!
list of elements used for your costume (shoulder decorations, caps, cloaks, underwear, outfits), so others could recreate it on their own characters

► Small adjustments can be made through third-party programs if necessary (E.g. - contrast / brightness / sharpness / vague vignette - things that allow you to improve the screenshot but will not change it drastically)

► Nudity, swear words, insulting other players in any form and indecent behavior ARE FORBIDDEN (only skeletons can be nude on your screenshots). Screenshots that contain anything from this list will be automatically disqualified.

► Any violation of the Forum Rules will lead to disqualification.
