Behind the Scenes -- I accidentally deleted the template I made for the Costume Contest "trophy" shots.  So I had to make another one.  This should fall closer to City of Heroes/Villains anyway, so no worries.  I redid the prior winners as well so it's consistent at least.

interesting....Powdershot, 1865's Hero.

I like the 'outside the box' thinking. :roll:

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8TH: Yule! It's fun to say! Have a legendary winter God or Goddess?  Got a pagan deity or ancient spirit to bring in the end of the harvest?  Can't bring yourself to make yet another Santa Claus or Elf figure?  Then come to this Costume Contest and let the old world Holiday Spirit take hold!  Odin would want it that way!  Or Krampus!  (Saturnalia enthusiasts: No actual virgin sacrifices, please.)

Host(s): Nyghtshade, Linuial.

December 8th's Winner: Krampus (@TheGreenlgmo)

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 15TH: Happy Holidays!  Got a elf in training?  Have a Holly, Jolly, Santa Claus, or an anti-hero take on St. Nicholas?  It doesn't have to be Christmas related: do you have a Chaunakah Hero or Dreidel-Defender?  How about a Chrismahaunakwanzakah creation that defies categorization?  Did you make a Baby New Year?!!  If so, bring them to Atlas Park!  We'd love to see your holiday-themed characters!

Hosts: Nyghtshade, Linuial.

December 15th's Winners: Cursed Marionette (Sorry! I didn't catch your global! :( My bad...) and Blizzard Witch (@mdlittle)
