Greetings, Sapience.

Rejoice, for the Mayaween season is nearly upon us! With it come spooky horrors and delightful disguises, all crafted by my own hand. For those who have yet to don one of my signature disguises, allow me to clarify what is required to weave your costumes into being:

Seek me out in Port Tasur'ke and give me a letter with your design on it as well as 10,000 gold - to cover the material costs, of course. The letter MUST contain the following information:

* A single word description of the costume, for cataloguing purposes. NOUNS ONLY. These must also be unique! See the second Q&A question below for details!

* A description of what you should look like wearing the costume when someone first spots you in a room.

* A description of what you should look like wearing the costume when someone looks at you more carefully. Do NOT go overboard with your descriptions, keep them under five sentences, and do not bother trying to tell this costumier what materials to use or how to style them! Only focus on the image you should project in your costume. Be creative! You may be realistic, or you may be fantastic (within reason).

Absolutely NO dressing up as Gods or other adventurers! Neither of these are very good for the health of anyone.

To help you prepare, I've answered some common questions below:

Q: Why should I buy one of you custom costumes instead of making it myself? Or, Gods forbid, buying a premade costume like a tasteless peasant?

A: We will first assume that you can appreciate craftsmanship. My costumes are far superior to anything the average tailor could make, and certainly miles ahead of readymade, mass-market drab.

For one, you will be much more convincingly disguised by my costumes than you could ever hope to be otherwise. If you wear one of the common costumes available today, it is quite easy for someone else to discern your identity underneath it. Not so with my craftsmanship! It will take considerable effort to find your identity, and those expending this effort will likely be ousted by our anonymous party host!

And now, most importantly, and this I highlight: YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED IN THE PARTY WITHOUT A CUSTOM COSTUME.

I will repeat this.

YOU MAY ONLY ENTER THIS GHOSTLY MAYAWEEN PARTY CRUISE WITH A CUSTOM COSTUME CRAFTED BY MYSELF.


Q: Can multiple people have the same costume?

A: No. Not only that, but there will only be one 'type' of costume allowed total. That is, there will be only one ghost, one dog, and so on. Now, if someone wants to be a spirit instead of a ghost, or a sheepdog instead of a wolfdog, that may be possible.

This also means you will greatly benefit from submitting your desired costume earlier, rather than later! Firstcome, first serve and so on.

These will also not be resold anywhere - they are entirely unique to you for the duration of the party!


Q: 10,000 gold? This is too expensive!

A: You will find that, given the earlier questions, this price is a steal, darlings.
