Are you a Saint or a Sinner? Ring in the New Year right, at Arlo Vasquez’s home for a Saints and Sinners party! Get ready your horns and halos, and get ready to watch the ball drop on DECEMBER 31ST, starting at 8 PM EST. Guests should arrive dressed accordingly -- As a Saint, or a Sinner. No skipping out! This party will be BYOB -- So get your best bottle of Grey Goose from your limo, before you come in. Join us for a proper house party this New Years, but be careful -- You don’t want to start the new year off on the wrong foot.
HAPPY NEW YEAR, MY DUDES. First of all, my apologies for posting this event’s information so close to the start date -- Holidays are a trip. So, in summary, this will be a Saints and Sinner’s New Years party at the home of ARLO VASQUEZ. It is a BYOB event -- So if you’re planning on posting your characters outfit, let us know what bottle they’re bringing too! All characters are invited, and should be dressed accordingly. If you feel as though your character would not be invited, fear not -- Everyone loves a party crasher. This event will begin on DECEMBER 31ST, at 8 PM EST. Since not everyone will be home for the first night (Have a safe holiday!), this event will be going on until the following MONDAY, JANUARY 8TH, to ensure everyone can be party of the action. All starters for this event should be tagged with #VERPEVENT7.
There will be a large plot drop happening towards the end of the event, that will be the closing moment. All characters will be effected by it in some way, some worse than others. Have any questions? Feel free to send them in!
The Haus of FREYA cordially invites you to attended the opening of POISONED YOUTH, an art gallery created by Arlo Vasquez, on the evening of NOVEMBER 16TH at STUDIO V. POISONED YOUTH is an art installation inspired by lovers, male and female, past and present, of the artist. This gallery is meant to show the peaks and valleys of love, of the poison that can come from it. The front of the studio will feature Arlo’s work, and a lounge has been created in the back half to allow guests to unwind and enjoy a cocktail. Half of the proceeds will be donated to the charity of each buyers choice. The dress code for this event is black tie, and the food will be catered by Howl. This event is sponsored by Haus of FREYA, and hosted by Francesca Abernathy.

ACT II!!!!! IT’S HAPPENING!! Hello my loves! This is the opening event for Act II, and should be the first public outing for the Act II characters. All characters are invited to attended, but if you feel your character would not be welcomed (We all know Chessie doesn’t have a great track record), they’re more than welcome to crash the party. This event will begin on the evening of NOVEMBER 16TH, AT 10 PM EST. It will be going on until MIDNIGHT EST, NOVEMBER 19TH. So, until Sunday at midnight. All starters should be tagged with #VERPEVENT4!
This event will be followed by a game changing plot drop, of course. We have to kick of Act II right, so the plot drop will be posted Sunday afternoon, and will be causing a large change to the group and character’s involved. I can’t give much more information other than that, as I don’t want to ruin the surprise! All I have to say is brace yourself! We’re about to embark on one bumpy ride.
It is no mystery that not every one in New York City has the luxury of coming home to a bed at night, to having a roof over their head, or a warm meal waiting for them. And in the season of giving, Nightingale Prep will be doing just that -- This year will be the first an annual Alumni Lock-In. On the evening of DECEMBER 1ST, Nightingale Prep will open it’s doors to former students, and will be unlocking them once the sun rises. Bunk beds courtesy of Bergdorf Goodman, will be set up in class rooms across the school, with silent auctions and live music going on in the gymnasium, as well as catering by Howl and an open bar provided in the cafeteria. All former Nightingale students are invited, and encouraged, to attend. All proceeds from this event will go to the newly created Nightingale Foundation, to help fight homelessness in this great city. An idea spearheaded by Celia Santos, a former Alumni Board member and graduate of Nightingale, the board will be following through with her event, despite recent tragic events. A third of all proceeds from this event will go towards any funeral expense the Santos family finds themselves riddled with.

Surprise, surprise. Here we go again. Lucky number five is kicking off in the best way possible -- Locking up all of these grieving and complicated characters with nearly all the people everyone wants to avoid. Sounds like it’ll be a smooth evening, right? Basically, this event will be like a traditional high school lock-in. Except for the added components that come from being part of the Upper East Side. For those of you who are unfamiliar -- It’s essentially like a giant sleepover. Everyone should pack a bag, and show up in their pajamas. This event will begin on DECEMBER 1ST at 8 PM EST, and will be going on until DECEMBER 6TH, at MIDNIGHT EST. (IE: Through the end of Wednesday, December 5th) I’m extending the real life time of this event, to ensure everyone is able to be part of it, despite time zones, work schedules, and social lives. All characters should be in attendance, hopefully the extended timing for this event will give everyone a chance to get in on the action. After the end of this event, I would love to hear all of your feedback regarding the extended time, and if you feel it helped with your ability to plot and get threads moving.
All posts for this event should be tagged with #VERPEVENT5. At this time, there will not be a plot drop during this event -- But we all know Gossip Girl will be keeping a watchful eye. Have a question? Feel free to send it in.
All Hallows Eve is upon us... So it’s time to drink.
You are cordially invited to Quinn Archibald and Tate Rodriguez’s Annual Monster Mash! Everyone loves Halloween, and on October 26th, we’re going to put aside our differences and celebrate this holiday as we should -- Dressed up, drunk, and playing beer pong. No fancy gala, no paparazzi, no worrying about ‘public images’. Just a good old fashion house party. The only rule: You won’t be let in if you’re not dressed up.
OOC INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND UNDER THE CUT
What kind of Halloween would this be if we didn’t have a costume party? Hosted at TATE RODRIGUEZ’S HOME, on OCTOBER 26TH we’ll be have a rager! Beer pong, live music, and spiked punch is the name of the game. This event will be held from 10 PM EST OCT. 26TH UNTIL MIDNIGHT OCT 30TH. I’m going to try something a bit new -- Making this event one day longer, in the hopes that everyone can get in on the action, regardless of work, school, and time zones. Everything for this event should be tagged with #VERPEVENT3. All characters are invited, and as always -- If you feel your character wouldn’t have made this list, we always love a good party crasher. All characters should also be dressed up!
There will not be a plot drop during this event, but of course -- Gossip Girl will be close by.
If you could be anyone for one night, what would you do? Now, you have the chance. That is, if you can find the venue -- Slipped carefully under the doors of a select guest list, those will find an invitation to the event of the season. The term ‘Speakeasy’ is not uncommon, coined during the era of prohibition in the 1920s. Speakeasy’s may not be as common as they once were, but their secrecy still remains. They offered a certain anonymity for their guests, giving you the freedom to be whoever you wanted --- As long as you knew the password. Now, the same rules apply. Following the directions given on the invitation, knock three times, then pass the word on to the doorman. The only catch: You can’t reveal your identity. All guests should remain behind their masquerade masks, letting the anonymity live on. But don’t get too comfortable -- You never know who is watching. We hope to see you there, if you can find us.

Well, well, well --- Would you look at that? It’s time for our second event! While the blurb above was a bit cryptic, I’ll lay this out for everyone: All of the character’s have been invited to a party at a Speakeasy*. It isn’t specified who the host is, but most can assume this is the work of Nathalie Kirbey’s careful attention to detail. The theme is 1920s, and all attendees will be wearing a mask, to obscure their identities. This event will be held on SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13TH, beginning at 11 PM EST. In real time, this event will be going on from the 13th to 12 AM on OCTOBER 16TH (Alternatively, midnight on Monday.). Any starter for this event should be tagged with VERPEVENT2.
Thought the last event was wild?! There will be a very large and important plot drop happening during this event. It’s going to be a game changer, so make sure to keep an eye out for it. Have a question? Feel free to send it in.
As the last model reaches the end of the runway, the lights go out, the music ends, and confusion takes over -- What’s going on? An answer is quickly found, with none other than Celia Santos appearing on screen, half naked and on top of Sebastian O’Riley. It becomes clear what’s being shown to the audience, and just as quickly as it came on, the home-movie ends. A sex tape wasn’t part of the plan for the relaunch, especially not one that featured O’s step-sister, but it’s solidified FREYA as the true provocateur of the Upper East Side, surely earning O a spot on the front pages of any and every magazine. At least now, the party guests will have plenty of things to talk about over cocktails.
I realize now I made a bit of a mistake on the end date of the New Years event -- The event will be going on until 2 PM EST, MONDAY, JANUARY 7TH. The plot drop will be posted at this time, signalling the end of the event.
Winter has arrived, and it’s only fitting to celebrate the season accordingly. It’s time to break out the egg nog, put on your best ugly sweater, and spend the night listening to Mariah Carey’s ‘All I want for Christmas is you’ on repeat. In the spirit of the season, Ophelia Atanas and Chessie Abernathy invite you to their home for their first annual Holiday Party. Festivities begin on Saturday, the 15th of December, at 8 PM EST. Make sure to break out your best furs and pea coats -- It’s predicted that the first snow fall will be the night before.

It’s time to party, my dudes!! There will be a good old fashion holiday party at O and Chessie’s home, so get ready to get drunk and party. Much like the Halloween party at Tate’s home, this is considered a house party -- Only this time, instead of costumes, there should be holiday dresses and suits. This event will begin on December 15th at 8 PM EST, and will go on until MIDNIGHT on December 23rd. Aka, Saturday to Saturday. All characters should be in attendance, but if you feel yours would not have been invited -- As always, everyone loves a good party crasher.
There will be a plot drop during this event, so make sure your character brought a coat! The tag for this event will be #VERPEVENT6.
