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.

Nimona

She might be a little gremlin, but she's not a bad kid. Not at all.

[pinksidekicking]

Only a little gremlin? I clearly need to step up my game.

[makoglow]

You're more than enough as you are.

[pinksidekicking]

I have to gremlin enough for two people, you know! Until Aerith comes back.

[makoglow]

Here I thought you were trying to be a gremlin for me too.

[flamekthunder]

[Reacts to the post with the 👍 for his vote. Because Nimona is definitely a summer type yep.]

That picture's suspiciously good for someone that bullied me. ):

[pinksidekicking]

Says the person who offered me a drink in the dark and then trying to get me to the haunted house with a stranger. You didn't even tell me your name.

[general_affairs]

Hey, sharing is caring! And what's a stranger but a new friend?

I can't believe Cloud hasn't told you my name yet. That's pretty damn rude since I only annoy him and Zack all the time. I'm Reno. Good meetin you.

[pinksidekicking]

It was so sus! I was this close to considering calling "Stranger Danger" on you. 👏

Oh, I know all the stories. You still could have introduced yourself to me! It's not like you're the only redheaded guy wearing a lot of black around here, you know.

Daaaaad, the weird guy is talking to me again!

[ She's absolutely trolling. Nimona has to vibe-check the people in Cloud's life, okay? ]

[makoglow]

Might have to treat her to more ice cream or something if she keeps it up.

[general_affairs]

Cloud Strife? Committing bribery? I'm telling Tifa.

[makoglow]

It's Nimona. Pretty sure everyone does it.

[ramuhs]

Like a little ball of sunshine, I'd say.

[makoglow]

Little ball of chaos is what I'd say.

[ramuhs]

A little chaotic ball of sunshine.

[brokenlight]

She's not bad at all.

[What're you talking about, Cloud?]

[makoglow]

No, but she likes to think that she is.

[brokenlight]

Nothing wrong with letting her think that once in a while.

[emberized]

All right Nimona
Liking the look

Definitely not the face of someone who would hijack anything

[makoglow]

Nope. Never. Not once in her life has she caused any trouble.

[emberized]

Spoken like someone who knows her

[He's definitely picking up some subtext here.]

You two from the same world?

[pinksidekicking]

I have never hijacked or blown up anything in my entire life.

[emberized]

And I can confirm that
As a very reliable and upstanding citizen
