Ladies and gentlemen!

[What is Michael wearing... Evidently he thought the occasion was enough for him to get dressed up like a rock star. He smiles into the video camera, and adjusts it a little to look out over a large stage.]

Today certain contestants have been preparing and the time is here~ In a moment I'll start recording each of their entrances. When I am finished, you viewers at home will receive, hm, let's say one vote to give to the best competitors!

Remember, the prizes go to charity, and it's all in good fun. Please enjoy everyone's hard work!

[Each competitor will have their own thread in which to post their outfit and entrance and where everyone can mock them. There'll be another thread for voting after that!

This is going up a little early so the competitors have time to see it and get their threads going.]

I actually went looking for one after I was signed up. The name probably wouldn't mean anything to you - it's a little orphanage in Seyruun, out on the outskirts of the city. The good kind where they actually care about the kids. Sadly some don't, but this one does, I made sure.

I never understood why people who make every appearance of hating children would be running an orphanage, but one hears stories.

[Someone's immediately enthusiastic.] One close to the heart, then! It sounds like you put at least as much effort into the charity as the outfit!

As I've said, if I'm going to do this, I may as well put in the work to do it right. And while it's not a situation I've experienced firsthand, I don't doubt that the money would be appreciated.

[Zel had the luck to have a relative around to look after him when his parents were gone. Whether this luck was good or bad was open to question, given that this relative was Rezo the Red Priest.]

[He nods to himself, pretty sure his decision has ultimately been made.] Let's have a look-see here. The contestant header said you were a Mister... [a moment to scroll to it.] Zelgadiss?

[onlysanechimera]

Yes, that's me.

[He gives a small smile.] Most people who don't get it the first time just seem to give it their best shot.
