Summary: Mandy's Masquerade hosts a fantastic Halloween party with a costume contest, some very special cocktails, and a few other surprises.
Date(s): Late in the month of October.
Warnings/Notes: Please mark any threads that need content warnings.

Mandy's is looking a bit festive this evening. Arrayed with spiderwebs, pumpkins, and other ghoulish decorations, the interior resembles a spooky haunted house. Spooky, not scary! Everyone's invited to stop by and celebrate All Hallow's Eve with spirited drinks, excellent company, and a lot of that Magnus flair.
You can loosen up on the dance floor to Monster Mash, Thriller, Dead Man's Party, or maybe something from this list. The spooky sky's the limit! Visit the bar for one of several special drinks you won't soon forget. You can also sample some tasty and holiday-appropriate baked goods, courtesy of the other Mr. Lightwood-Bane. Finally, stop by the table with the MAGIC 8 BALL to learn a little more about your fellow partygoers.
Potions.
drink list
Siren Song
If you're a little tone-deaf, don't fret. This drink will turn you into a master at serenading. It won't actually give you the ability to influence anyone via magical means, but maybe if your song choice is apt, you'll woo someone either way!
Firework!
A drink that comes with a portable fireworks show hovering over its surface. Drinking it will give you the sensation of ingesting liquid pop-rocks.
Blacklight
Does what it says on the tin and makes the drinker glow under a black light. It's also kind of sour.
Frankenstein's Monster
This drink is quite shocking. Not dangerously so, but when you drink it, you'll have the impression of getting a tingling little jolt of electricity down your spine. It's aliiiiive.
To Be or Not To Be (A Daemon)
Drink this and you will find you've been magically swapped with your daemon. It only lasts ten minutes, but hey! You'll get to see how the other half lives. A note: you won't inherit one another's abilities!

Who Wore It Best?
costume contest
Congratulations to our costume contest winners!
In first place for individual costumes...
Rafa wins for his devilish costume and he'll be awarded 2 potions: the first of which will up his luck stat, granting him good fortune in an endeavor (it says "Deal with the Devil" on the bottle) and the second will up his persuasion stat, helping him to be more successful in an argument (it says "The Devil's Advocate" on the bottle).
In second place for individual costumes...
Nico plunders the second place spot and will be given a treasure chest full of chocolates that are rum flavored. Careful, they pack a bit of a punch and when consumed, they'll make whoever eats them feel especially happy. No sad drunks here!
In third place for individual costumes...
Zeke and his amazingly sunny costume are in third and he wins a sunflower plant that will never cease to bloom and seems to have a bit of a glow about it. Plus, perpetual supply of sunflower seeds?
In first place for couples costumes...
Magnus and Alec came first for their portrayal of... each other... and they win a pair of seemingly mundane t-shirts that say "Bennet" and "Darcy" on them. What's that about?
In second place for couples costumes...
Vex and Kenzi delighted with their take on the Addams' family patriarch and matriarch and won second place. As a prize, Kenzi will be given a shampoo and conditioner set that seems pretty innocuous until you check out the writing on the bottles: 'Have YOU ever wanted hair like Cousin Itt? Are you ever in luck!' Just a small amount will make her locks lustrous and smooth. Vex will be given a very lifelike and animated hand in a box.
In third place for couples costumes...
Rose and Kaz were drop dead gorgeous in their mafia-inspired garb. As prizes, they will receive the following: for Rose, a pair of magical die that make music when thrown, and for Kaz, a set of playing cards that are intricately illustrated with astonishing art that seems to move. Watch out for the face cards, they get very opinionated about your playing. They both also receive a chip that can be relinquished to Magnus for a small magical favor.
MAGIC 8 BALL
icebreaker game
Sitting on a table to one side of the room is a fortune-telling device that might be familiar to some. However, rather than spitting out ambiguous answers to your queries, this magic 8-ball has been enchanted to pose icebreaker questions. Give it a shake and then post the question here for others to answer!

If your best friend picked a tattoo for you to get, what would they pick?
[ a beat, and then a sigh. ]
He'd probably pick something stupid, like his name. Not that I'd ever put anything on my body like that.

'If you could eliminate one food so that no one would eat it ever again, what would you pick to destroy?'
Gourds, of course. May I say the entire family, or must I choose only pumpkins? [ With a glance around at all the delightful jack-o-lanterns in the room. ] Because pumpkins, in that case. Vile creations.

What is something unexpected that has changed about you in the last few years?

What was your favorite thing to play with as a child? Why?

She will just... give it another shake. ]
'If you had to get a tattoo (no choice here) and it had to be larger than 3 inch by 3 inch, and you could never have it removed, what would you get and where would you get it?'
[ the tattoos many of her Scion companions have aren't the symbol of the Scions, but a symbol to show one is part of the Circle of Knowing. so that is out of the question... ]
...For myself, the Fortemps coat of arms, just above my hip.

Oh! Hmmm ... [His nose wrinkles in contemplation.] If you could instantly become fluent in another language, which language would you choose?
