Time for some thrillin' heroics!

I have decided that I do want to be a superhero for Hallowe'en. I am thinking that maybe I could be "The Great White North".

I have the material to make a (slightly-off) white cloak. Now, what should I do for the rest of my costume? What style should I be going for here? Blue and white 'ice' theme? Red and white 'Canada' theme? How skimpy should I go? Maybe I will make myself a little bag that I can line with plastic, and carry ice cubes to throw at people. Or put in their drinks. Heh.

..I need some white tights!

I recommmend a red & white theme that is not that skimpy (because it is cold in the north). You definitely need to wear a toque though!

Yeah, red and white are snazzy. Plus you look better in red than blue.

I was thinking tights, but maybe I will see if I can find some longjohns and a thermals shirt, in white, and then little red shorts over top, and a red maple leaf on my chest. I don't have a red tuque though. And the cloak, yes or no?

All good superheroes need capes! Maybe if possible with a maple leaf on it.

They really need to let you have a mapple leaf in CoH. You can have a fleur de lis so they might as well let us have a mapple leaf.

They should! E-mail the admin :)

Also, did you see my story? I mostly ask because I am pretty sure I am going to wind up stealing matt cash for a bit. Although I forgot that 'Cash' wasn't his real last name until I just checked my old notes, so I have to ammend that.

Red lined with white (or vice versa) would rock out. Is there *nowhere* to get a toque?

Of course, another line of reasoning would mean that she should be wearing skimpy clothes, since it is so warm in NC compared to her frosty homeland! ^-^

You'll have to remember to say "eh" and "aboot" a lot. Oh, wait....

:p

*chuckles at the ice cube thing* Admittedly, not sure how long you'll be able to carry it without it all melting... but then you'll have icewater handy! :)

If you happen to have a stuffed beaver you should make it a cape and call it your trusty sidekick.

That would be *awesome*! Maybe if I see any cheap beavers at the mall. Of course, then I will be the butt of many beaver related jokes for the rest of the term, I'm sure. probably along the lines of 'Canadian girls really like their beaver', etc. Hee!

Oh, I must have a tshirt with that written on it with maybe a pic of a beaver or something.
