EVENTS FOR THIS MONTH

Activity Check 11-17	You know what to do! All you need is five comments from your character or a post/log!
Was that here before? 17-18, 26-30	Now you know for a fact that there are hallways and buildings that don't match the rest of the condominium. Rooms are starting to appear, only a few at a time, but they seem more like they belong in a home than in the units you're trapped in. And now anyone who wanders into them can feel those eyes watching them, the eyes that they just can't find. !!! Was that a shadow that just raced behind you?
CHRISTMAS 19-25	The mysterious benefactor strikes again, Christmas stockings grace hooks next to every door, wreathes of holly on the doors themselves. Actual boughs of holly drape and hang over the general doorways, sprigs of mistletoe sometimes hiding just until you pass under them with someone else. The tables have small winter villages or train sets under small decorated trees. The large tree in the foyer has presents that you can add to that will be given to the needy families of the city. After all, the holiday is one of giving to those less fortunate than yourselves. On the morning of the holiday all halls will lead to the main entrance of Rose Red where a tall and stately tree is covered in beautiful decorations, the star barely touching the chandelier. Underneath the tree is presents for everyone, one of them being from Rose Red herself though the period of the gift may be early 1900's. A breakfast buffet will be spread out for you to nibble on. Come dinner all halls will lead to the dining room where the Christmas goose waits to be cut. Cranberry sauce and all sorts of good foods deck the table, just don't forget to turn out in your Christmas finery. Or you might not even get a table-scrap, let alone eggnog.
NEW YEARS 31-1	Silver tinsel garlands with bits of blue drape over the doors close to the ceiling in the halls, once more put in place by the mysterious benefactor. Shiny bits of glass and metal hang in the windows out in the halls or up around the light fixtures. You swear you hear "Auld Lang Syne" playing down the halls hours before the party itself begins. Throughout the day itself you'll hear the sounds of parties from behind closed doors more frequently but like normal there will be no one behind the door once opened. On the eve of the holiday itself, an hour before the clock strikes midnight, you'll find yourself in the Billiard Room soon enough. Glasses of champagne and sparkling grape cocktails (non-alcoholic) litter the tables along with noisemakers and top-hats and tiaras. Somewhere in the piles of madness you'll find finger foods of varying sorts.

SEPTEMBER 2012

Being watched... 23-29

Ever get that creepy feeling that someone you can't see is watching you? Or that shiver that races down your back for no reason at all? Those sorts of feelings are going to multiply and slowly you become more sure of the idea that you're not alone here.

But whatever it is...you just can't figure it out. And no one seems to believe you.

[LIMITED TO CHARACTERS WITH PSYCHIC ABILITIES.]

OCTOBER 2012

Small little things 21-27

The rooms start to shake as if an earthquake is hitting the city, but as soon as you walk out it you realize that nothing in any other room is out of place.

But that's not all...

Sometimes you'll set something down, your room keys or cell phone, turn away for a moment and when you next look they're gone. Did you bring them out here with you? Maybe you're losing your mind...

Or perhaps...perhaps you get hungry and decide it's time for a midnight snack. You crack open the fridge and pull out something tasty to eat. Wait... Is that... Is that blood all over the confines of your fridge? Are there blood-cicles inside your freezer? You go to scream or slam the door shut but it all disappears.

HALLOWEEN 28-31

The halls of the complex are actually tastefully decorated by an unknown benefactor, side tables with buckets of small pumpkins and branches with candles nestled in them. Some doors have a flock of bats in flight on them, others police caution tape that warns against Trick-or-Treaters, and just a few - the Rose Red rooms - have balances of sheer cobweb-printed fabric draping over them. There are a few more cobwebs everywhere and the halls themselves seem a bit dimmer, a perpetual fog on the floor disturbed with your every step. Owls hoot during the night, crows cawing in the day, and you wish for silence but the only way to get it is death.

The night of the holiday you'll find a bowl of mixed candy and a costume (TASTEFUL, remember, Rose Red is an old-fashioned sort of house) waiting on your bed. In the later hours all halls will lead to the Billiard Room for a party, however it is advisable that you be in your rooms before two in the morning. Rose Red will cut out the lights and cannot be held responsible for hauntings.

THANKSGIVING 18-22

Pumpkins and other harvest vegetables (Indian corn, squash, etc) are all on the hallway tables once again decorated by the mysterious benefactor. Unlit candles in circles of fall colored leaves in sconces on either side of every door. Wherever you go you can't seem to escape the smell of delicious foods baking, one day it's apple pie, the next the turkey, always seeming to be around the corner. But it won't be there.

Not until the day of the festivities when all halls lead to the (rare) dining room with a bountiful meal laden on top of it. Enjoy the meal, but chew thoroughly, choking would disrupt the holiday festivities.

There are monsters here 23-30

Was that a growl you just heard? It startled you out of a sound sleep, didn't it? Don't look now, there's something rolling under the carpet or rug in your room, coming closer to you.

Now it's in your bed, slowly rolling up between your legs. Do you toss the covers aside or do you let yourself get eaten by what you're too frightened to face?

If you survive your interlude with the hidden monster you'll begin to hear what sounds like a party being thrown into the wee hours of the morning in what you know is an empty unit. But there are shadows moving under the door. Peering in through the peephole won't do you much good, no one is there and the lights are off. Yet you still hear the sounds.

...Was that room even there before?

Was that here before? 17-18, 26-30

Now you know for a fact that there are hallways and buildings that don't match the rest of the condominium. Rooms are starting to appear, only a few at a time, but they seem more like they belong in a home than in the units you're trapped in.

And now anyone who wanders into them can feel those eyes watching them, the eyes that they just can't find.

!!!

Was that a shadow that just raced behind you?

CHRISTMAS 19-25

The mysterious benefactor strikes again, Christmas stockings grace hooks next to every door, wreathes of holly on the doors themselves. Actual boughs of holly drape and hang over the general doorways, sprigs of mistletoe sometimes hiding just until you pass under them with someone else. The tables have small winter villages or train sets under small decorated trees. The large tree in the foyer has presents that you can add to that will be given to the needy families of the city. After all, the holiday is one of giving to those less fortunate than yourselves.

On the morning of the holiday all halls will lead to the main entrance of Rose Red where a tall and stately tree is covered in beautiful decorations, the star barely touching the chandelier. Underneath the tree is presents for everyone, one of them being from Rose Red herself though the period of the gift may be early 1900's. A breakfast buffet will be spread out for you to nibble on.

Come dinner all halls will lead to the dining room where the Christmas goose waits to be cut. Cranberry sauce and all sorts of good foods deck the table, just don't forget to turn out in your Christmas finery. Or you might not even get a table-scrap, let alone eggnog.

NEW YEARS 31-1

Silver tinsel garlands with bits of blue drape over the doors close to the ceiling in the halls, once more put in place by the mysterious benefactor. Shiny bits of glass and metal hang in the windows out in the halls or up around the light fixtures. You swear you hear "Auld Lang Syne" playing down the halls hours before the party itself begins. Throughout the day itself you'll hear the sounds of parties from behind closed doors more frequently but like normal there will be no one behind the door once opened.

On the eve of the holiday itself, an hour before the clock strikes midnight, you'll find yourself in the Billiard Room soon enough. Glasses of champagne and sparkling grape cocktails (non-alcoholic) litter the tables along with noisemakers and top-hats and tiaras. Somewhere in the piles of madness you'll find finger foods of varying sorts.
