I am the shadow on the moon at night.
Okay, so, this is how the Halloween Nightmare event is going down:
-Starting at midnight tomorrow you can start posting up your character's nightmares in the main game community. Not everyone is required to post up a nightmare if they don't want to, you can just play in someone else's.
-Anyone who wants to can reply to your nightmare and you play through it. The writer of the nightmare is responsible for moving things along (so, npc-ing beasties and writing the exposition in your character posts).
-Everyone's probably not technically asleep at the same time, characters can appear in multiple dreams.
-As is the case with most dreams, your character is not aware that this is a dream, as far as know this is just some random thing that's happening.
-In dreams the strangest stuff (multi-colored animals, three headed dudes, the power of flight that you never had before) usually seems perfectly acceptable. According to something I was reading wikipedia, when people dream they explain illogical things to themselves like "Oh, look at that three headed man, I remember reading about Siamese triplets on the news" so dream logic can explain away any weirdness.
-On Tuesday I'll post a battle with the baddie causing all these nightmare shenanigans (the ruler of a dream dimension aptly named "Nightmare" who likes to torture people in their sleep. Marvel has a villain for everything). The battle will cause all the other nightmares to break down, so when it goes up, that can be your cue to have your nightmare worlds start crumbling so you can wrap up your threads mosey on over to the battle to fight or spectate or hide.
-You're free to do whatever you'd like in your nightmares, you have completely free reign. Make them scary or strange and whatever you want them to be. If you want your character to die you can even do that, though at that point they will probably not be involved in the battle.
-Since this is all going on while you're sleeping, you can still do regular daily life posts where you're trick or treating or chasing down those kids egging your apartment or having wild sexy Halloween parties. Like ya do.
