At first Alessa hadn't planned on really dressing up as anything fancy, but she soon thought of something she'd like to go as. Some people liked to dress as things that scared them, or used to scare them. For the next couple of weeks (2 or 3) Alessa spent most of her time in a place in Emptiness that wasn't be monitored by a camera, and set to work with materials she had either found, or requested. The first thing she did was designed the blue prints for her head piece, and set about with the materials to create them. That took about a week to do.
Next up she went about creating a long skirt that looked as though it were made from skin, though in reality it was really made of a type of leather. Next up she created an apron made out of the same material. This part took her another week.
Now all that was left were the extras. Alessa had a top that would work with the outfit, so as not to expose herself. The black combat boots she had found in emptiness, along with a pair of white nurses gloves. Finally all that was left was to create the weapon, or a replica of one. Using the same material as the head piece, several paints to create a rusted look, a wooden handle, and some fake blood, Alessa had created a replica fake great knife. The final touches of the costume were made when Alessa artfully placed fake blood on the skirt and apron.
Now it was the day of the ball, and wanting to be in character as much as was allowed, Alessa opted to slowly fade into site in a dark of the ballroom. She scanned the area, thankful that she had put discreet eyeholes in the helmet. Amongst the people here already was Frank, dressed up as a wizard, someone dressed as a mobster, another woman, and a girl dressed like a butterfly. Without saying anything, Alessa stepped out of the corner, dragging the fake weapon behind her as if though it were heavy.
She was hoping that people would be just a little alarmed, and a little scared, but not so terrified that they ran out screaming.
Yes, Alessa was dressed as the infamous executioner from Silent Hill. The creature with many names: Pyramid Head; the Red Pyramid Thing; the Executioner; the Bogeyman; and the Shadowed One.
