Storyline Introduction
The idea for this currently one-time limited edition storyline event came about in an impromptu fashion during a bit of live role-play between myself, Canaan, and Nehivena. Further hints and arrangements have been made through additional role-play sessions and forum interactions. The concept is as follows.
Salvador Delahada is hosting a small gathering at his place of residence on Christmas for those people he has met and likes whom he knows otherwise have no family to spend the holidays with. The rules for the guests are simple: cook a single dish that reminds you of home and bring it along to share with the other guests during a grand feast.
The date for which this event will be taking place is December 25, 2014, actually on Christmas day. Since we are all well aware that nobody actually is going to be role-playing that day, and due to the fact that it is likely relatively impossible to get us all together for one large RP event, we have opted to make this a forum play-by-post sort of thing.

The Rules Both In and Out
1. Characters participating in this event are by invitation only. Was your character invited? You will know this either through live play or through a private message from Delahada that might be waiting in your inbox to be read. If there is a stocking with your character's name on it in the image above, it's pretty obvious your character was invited, too.
2. Please note that if your character was not invited to this event that it is absolutely impossible for your character to enter the grounds of Matadero. There are layers upon layers of protections in place on the property that keep out anyone Salvador does not wish to be there. Any posts to this thread made by anyone not on the guest list will be removed, and subject to public mockery. Therefore it is suggested that if you want your character to have brought a date along, it might be a good idea to get Salvador?s permission first. Just saying.
3. The only requirement your character must meet so as to avoid scolding and ridicule is to prepare a single dish to be brought for the feast, and of course to attend for at least a little while. It is suggested you post pictures and include a recipe in any potential descriptions.
4. Additional story bits such as collaborated writings, edited live play logs, or personal character reflections of the event are encouraged to be posted to this thread.
5. Images and hyperlinks to videos or other relative imagery that you think might additionally reflect interactions at this event are also encouraged to be posted to this thread.
6. If you do not post something to this thread, we will assume your character was not present for this event. A placeholder post stating something as simple as ?my character was there? is acceptable, so long as you pinky swear promise to edit it at a later date into something more substantial.
7. There is a deadline to post something set for midnight December 25th going into the 26th, because trust that half of us have no lives and will be playing anyway. Characters are likely to talk about who was and was not present for this event in follow-up live play and collaborative writing sessions.
The Setting
This dinner party thingamagjig will be taking place at a re-purposed, remodeled previously defunct warehouse that got turned into a freshly built and state-of-the-art slaughterhouse that is as of yet not operational. The second level of the slaughterhouse is an apartment in which Salvador lives.
A wordy description of the place can be found HERE AT THIS LINK with an additional description of the rooftop paradise that will be open to guests that was designed and built by Sal's good friend Thorn directly above it. If that doesn't do it for you...
I AM NO ARTIST BUT HERE HAVE A THING I DREW!

The worst rough sketch of the main floor of the Matadero apartment. This is not at all to scale, but it?ll hopefully give you a better idea of the layout. One big open great room from the main door. I did not draw in the catwalks overhead. I?ll include them in the crap I?ll draw of the upper mostly open level later. But the master bedroom is over the kitchen. The kitchen is the only area there that is not open to the vaulted 18-20 ft. ceiling, because master bedroom overhead. Hope this helps.
AND HERE! B DID A BETTER THING FOR ME!
