Hi everyone, ^^
To be honest, this isn't really a "giveaway", more of a mini-contest. Since its Christmas (for me at least) you need to prepare something Christmas-y and Spiral-Knights'y. It can be a piece of artwork, a song, a poem (and anything else that you can come up with :P). Please don't spend too long on it since the prizes I'm giving out aren't gonna be worth an hour of your time.
Ok, to be honest, you don't HAVE to prepare anything at all. Just enter your name in this thread and an item that you would like (which isn't worth more than a Swiftstrike Buckler at the most). I know that not everyone visits the forums, so starting form today, I will be around Haven 1 handing out gifts to people. This is not a valid reason to start chasing me (even though I like running away from people^^) around.

A brief list of what I'm giving out:
2* equipment with UV's
Accessories (mostly hallow)
Costumes (mostly hallow)
Papayas (jk ^^)
Materials (not the most exciting thing, I know)
"Usables" (mostly confetti

EDIT: A lot if people are asking for............well............expensive stuff :P Don't be disappointed if you don't get what you want. I'm low on crowns myself >.> (and by that, I mean REALLY low. 1,658 crowns :P and 20 ce)

@Psychodestroyer
I will try to get a recipe for the spur :P And then test my luck with crafting

@Terra-Flamberge
A lot of those in my Guild's Arsenal ^^

@Infernus-Dragneel

Psychodestroyer

Good luck with that. I've been ragecrafting for months, and not so much as a med yet.

Then again, that's me.

Infernus-Dragneel

Does that count for dragon

Does that count for dragon wings?

I want to fly, fly like a dragon. I shall plunge this world into an inferno of pain and death.

My Entry

Christmas is not just a time for presents,
Or running around haven begging like peasants.
It is a time to remember Jesus' birth,
And praying for peace on Earth.

Merry Christmas Papaya!

Juances

Long feather or scarf. I'd ask for ANYTHING that goes on back slots but those are always expensive :/
For weapons, I always wanted an ASI cutter... and any wolver coat with a shock/freeze/fire UV is welcome.

It's hot in Texas,
But it still snowed this Christmas,
Icemen will be carved!

IGN: Immortous

Well.... How about an ASI(high?) troika? Always wanted to make a Trig or Suda!
If not, a spur or brandish with said UV works too. (...Troika! :P)

The papaya faints

Has nobody noticed the part where I said "(which isn't worth more than a Swiftstrike Buckler at the most)". I'm pretty sure wings are worth much more than a swiftstrike buckler :P Just saying. I don't have that many wings >.> Or crowns

Spiralimerick!

There once was a Jolly Green Jelly,
With a quivering, shivering belly,
He oozed in his bath,
And thus faced the Dev's wrath,
So they scrapped him in favor of skellies!

I apologize in advance for what may well be one of the silliest things I have ever doodled. (Because I don't profess to call this a real drawing).

... and I don't actually need anything. But if you really want to give stuff away, torchstones and blaze peppers are my favorite mats. XD

Hawxindanite

My entry its a contemporary poem it may be in 2 parts

A merry winter fest! We all would say
But what does it really mean?
It may mean gifts and presents!
Don't forget the candy!
Yes. This may be what we think but no it is not about these.
What is it about? Others might ask with curiosity in their eyes
I do not know, they would continue, but it has a greater meaning than these.
You will find few people whom know the festive origins of winterfest.
All they say is give. And then they leave it at that
Sometimes it leaves me puzzled. I do not know where this final piece they gave me goes?

Part 2

I was left in the darkness of bewilderment, not because nobody helped me but because I sent myself here
I always wondered what was this wonderful festivity about. Introduced by the strangers adapted by us, and now we enjoy the fun it brings!
I always wonder if things could get any better than this, maybe it can?
A while later someone stretched out her hand, offering to help me get out of this darkness. She showed me the light she put all my pieces together and I was finally one. She had helped me greatly that knight, I wanted to thank her but I could not for she disappered
Then I realised I was missing one last piece. It was the last empty slot I was yet again empty, because that slot was that knight
Winterfest came soon enough. Something then changed in me, my heart was filled yet again, she had returned, said hi and gave me presents of all kinds
I asked her for what she wanted, all she said was me.
That day I realised what winterfest was about it was about our sense of humanity and our urge to help others, all thanks to this knight
After my shock I gave her what she wanted

I smelled some cake.
It was starting to bake.
I walked inside the room.
And heard a loud boom.

Biscotti had messed up.
I said, "Hey, whats up?"
He said, "Cakes!"
They were as big as lakes!

We fought off the creatures.
We ruined all their features.
Whats left was a mess.
Now we must clean up the rest.

Creep Cakes were thrown into the trash,
With quite a loud bash.
Biscotti and I smiled with glee.
Because we both we're home free.

I left the shop,
After cleaning it with a mop.
I listened to snipes tweeting.
And to the Lockdown Player's beating.

I grinned and shouted,
"Haven is great, there's no doubt about it!"
------------------------
I want a brandish with ASI. :D

EDIT: It has to be christmas-y?!

May I present...

Winterfest version of "Deck the Halls" (the fa la la la parts are replaced in certain verses to make the song sound... well, better.)

Deck the halls with flocks of cute snipes
'Cause they even wear red santy hats!
'Tis the winter to be frosty
Yes I mean the frosty accessory
Don we now our festive costumes
Frosty hoods, frosty helms, fur coats too!
Troll the ancient knight-y carols
Fa la la la la, la la la la!

Look, the poor little gremlin children
Stuck in Emberlight with cold bare hands
Bring the presents, lads and lasses
Beautifully wrapped in red and green
Impostoclaus'll reward you gladly
With some luck, you'll get a big surprise!
Go, my knights, report to duty
Fa la la la la, la la la la!

A Snipe.... Okay. So it doesn't look like one.

A Snipe. Okay, so it doesn't look like a snipe. Done in... Definitely under 5 mins. Um... Yes. It isn't very good. Okay, it's not good at all. All right, all right, it sucks.

I only wish I could draw like Tev....

Um. Yes. It's crummy. So I don't care what I get. I don't really need anything either. Erm.. so yeah.
Thanks, Papaya.

Winterfest

Winterfest by Abyssal-Flamberge

From December Twelve, winter has arrived
Impostoclause greets, “Merry Winterfest!”
And to his right(or left?) is his trusty Devilite
Upon arriving to Town, you see the magic, as I can attest

“Save Winterfest!” pleaded Nonna and Imposto Claus
Very few nodded, most of all shook their heads
But to be honest, all you have to do is cross
The Iron Tundra of gifts and dread

For in Save Winterfest,
Be careful of Greavers;
Or Devilites, it’s best
You must deliver gifts to orphans, remember!

You have ten minutes,
To give and to spare
One gift to fit it
For every kid to bear

Gremlin orphans are happy now
That their wishes have been granted
Toys and more when they open their gifts
As they give their wishes in the end...

When you kill a few Grinchlin Stalkers or such
You might get a Humbug Hat or none
I, myself, had an addiction to these
But alas, these hats I had none. D:
