Hmm.... Dr. Who is the first time traveler who comes to mind. Maybe I'll get out my Cylon and repurpose her as a Terminator. 🙂 Will update once I decide.

Haha, I don't believe I have a bio on her!  Her name is a (probably too) elaborate pun:  CRISPR is an acronym for "Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats" and there have been a number of recent scientific news stories about its usage in bio-tech, so I combined that with the idea of a "crisper drawer" in a refrigerator to temporarily rename my mutant plant control character since she'd be in a costume where her mutant brain would be "kept fresh."  Again, it's a silly pun but it got a quick chuckle out of me when I thought of it so here we are.

[TrixieKixx]

@Midnyte You outdid yourself with pics from last weekend and this one. I had no clue that Poison Apple had a green cloud at her feet! Your pics and commentary are always so awesome 🥰

Fantastic! And thanks for confirming that you didn't have a bio on her. (sometimes all we need is a quick chuckle to help make a decision 😄 )

You have a busy October! Thanks for the advance heads up. I'm looking so forward to Halloween event this year. The events are all lined up nicely from Oct through Feb but then there is that long lull until October again. I'll be glad to lead one or more of the events.

[Midnyte]

For Renault, I'll bring Morning Frost - Ice/Ice Brute

I think this is a good time for Barbarella, my Peacebringer from the 41st Century.

 

I am happy to lead the  ⬛🟥🟨 Theme for October. Obviously. 

We did The Oktoberfest theme last year, so this is a nice change of pace as well I think. Our national holiday is in commemoration the fall of the Berlin Wall and Reunification of the 2 german states. Which may also give you some ideas for costumes (David Hasselhoff anybody? 😉) ...

OMG! That was awful! The arm movements 😄 I've never seen a singing video of him. Loved him in Knight Rider when I was a teen though 🙂

I had no idea of his performance on the Wall! I didn't understand your reference so I read about it. So interesting to learn these things.  I only remember being there in '86 when the Wall was still up, and we were very specifically in W Germany for that trip.  I'm proud to celebrate your Reunification with you 🥰

Until I read about him tonight, I had no clue he's made such a career out of singing. 🤣 I never watched Knight Rider.. I was in my late teens/early 20s and so busy with college classes and boyfriends and various jobs, omg I must've gotten home at night and fallen into bed without even watching TV! 😄

One hilarious thing I remember from when my sister's and my kids were little, like 20 years ago, we all went to see that SpongeBob movie in the theatre where David Hasselhoff is body surfing being towed on a raft (ha, 20 years ago I can't remember details) or something and it's just SO WEIRD.... have any of you seen it??  The six of us were in hysterics and we still talk about it sometimes!

Ok, you asked for it!

 

This is an eternal Meme here in Germany: That him singing "Looking for Freedom" to the people from The East had a vital part in taking down the Berlin Wall in 1987! He was hugely popular at that time in Germany (both parts), ruling the charts with his songs for weeks. Although nobody of the young people actually liked his music, as it all was so incredibly cheesy (and looking at the above, you know what I am talking about, right?)!

 

You gotta give it to him, tho! He is such an absolute Dude when it comes to this!

 

 

The questions shown are in german only, but you get what it's about from just listening to his answers. And if that isn't a hilarious story, I don't know what is!!!

Enjoy!

 

EDIT: And just for reference: here is what this is all about:

I have two questions on this one.  Is this theme costume supposed to be going as naked as possible? And would a Rad/Energy Tank fit the "All Energy" part?

Yes and yes! Only one of your powers needs to be Energy.
