WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS

This posting is listed in big bold swirly letters on all Manta Boards:

AHOY! HELP WANTED. THINK YOU’VE GOT WHAT IT TAKES TO BE THE FACE OF ESCORDVI’S VERY FIRST ADVENT CALENDAR? POST YOUR GLAMOROUS PICTURES TODAY. POST THEM NOW!

A group of collaborators is looking to put together Escordvi’s very first annual advent calendar. For its inaugural year, they want to compile a collection of pictures of beautiful riftfarers to represent each month. These pictures can range anywhere from beauty shots, to thirsty body shots, to tasteful fashion poses. Anything goes!

Have your character post their own (or their friends, enemies, boyfriends, girlfriends, dogs) photos to this network post. NPCS can also be used to post photos. Then feel free to comment around on the photos with which month or season you think would suit them best. Or just comment about how much you like the photos. Who’s hot? Who’s not? Or about how horrified you are that someone posted yours! Any and all feedback is needed so they can create the best calendar ever!

At the end of the month, an advent calendar for 2025 will be created! If there are enough submissions, there will be multiple calendars so don't be shy or think you'll be left out! For ease of use, the calendar has been broken down into the four seasons so that multiple themed shots can be posted. Get posting!

PLEASE USE THE FORMATTING CODE PROVIDED IN EACH TOPLEVEL! Putting the character's name in the subject line is optional but helpful for quick reference. Any who don't follow instructions will have their comment screened so it can be edited. This is mostly to ensure images are not too large and stretching pages. Please try to crop images to best fit the code, especially long ones. The code will automatically resize images to a max width of 300px, so an image with a 3:4 or 3:5 ratio would be ideal.

hello, fellow anonymous man

[empyrean_mirror]

I don't know if he's cozy or not, could you repeat it again?

zack's here like will smith

[activatingcombatmode]

He's looking EXTRA COZY for that WINTER SHOOT.

The bigger the scarf, the better.

kaveh can only approve

[empyrean_mirror]

I suppose that makes giving him gifts for the season pretty easy, huh?

[activatingcombatmode]

Yeah, the more big fluffy scarfs the better.

[afflatusexarch]

Why are you like this?

[activatingcombatmode]

Should I add a few more points? Yeah, maybe you're right. It wasn't enough?

[afflatusexarch]

Don't you dare!

See, you say that I never let you win and yet you do these things. I cannot even compete!

[activatingcombatmode]

I still think you're the one who's better with words. I've got to do what I can to show off how much I care about you. That's all.

[afflatusexarch]

You have a way with words as well. Language itself comes in many forms. Yours just happens to come in the form of gestures and actions.

I appreciate it more than you know.

Nimona, we're not kids here!

[pinksidekicking]

Some of us are! Anything else, and I'd have to cover my ears! Or save my poor eyes from reading it.

[activatingcombatmode]

Man. I guess you'll understand when you're older and you find someone you want to kiss.

I suppose that I could offer a vote, simply because it would be fun to see him ruffled at the idea of being the face of a month on a calendar.

[activatingcombatmode]

Wouldn't it be cute as hell? He'd be fussed about it. Ears wiggling and all. Can't pass the chance up.

[garudas]

Do be sure to take photos to share with the rest of us when he sees it.

But you are right. Winter seems best for him. Judging by what everyone else is voting on, he strikes me as the type of quiet winter's day. Where it is not too cold. The type where you would sit with a good book near the fire.

[activatingcombatmode]

Haha, I knew Raha had fans. He doesn't believe me when I tell him that he does.

He does give off cozy vibes like that. Personally, I think he'd fit in any of the categories but winter hit for me this time. He's the "good at weathering all weather" type.

[afflatusexarch]

The utter betrayal I feel in this moment...

[garudas]

[Oh, good thing he has no idea who this is, right????]

I was not the one who put you up for it.

[afflatusexarch]

Yet you so readily agree with the sentiment.

Both of you really are just out here posting pictures of sunshine with heart emojis all over it huh?

[activatingcombatmode]

Come on buddy, no need to be jealous. When you've got sunshine you've gotta show it.

[general_affairs]

It's fine, one day I'll have a special catboy to call my own.

I GUESS I can vote for graha since we're friends, but it's gonna cost you.

[activatingcombatmode]

Is that so? Got someone in mind? Or are you just praying for a cat.

And you better. In the least, do it for the red head fan club.
