The bell-ringer was clearly one of the latter.

December was upon Evelon, and with that, the Christmas spirit was beginning to awaken in its inhabitants. For some people, the chill in the air was their alarm clock. But the Piyo who stood in front of the tree had clearly never fallen asleep in the first place. And although he appeared to be in human form, the orange Santa hat resting on top of his impressive afro and the tuft of orange feathers sticking out of his faux-fir-trimmed red disco jumpsuit made it clear what he was. He rang the bell with such ferocity, one might expect his arm to have fallen off. But he rang that little bell, and he jumped, and he hollered, and he danced to the sounds of "Jingle Bell Rock" blaring out of the old-school boom box behind him.
That wasn't all that was behind him. There was also the enormous tower of presents.
Giant store displays of empty wrapped boxes were nothing new, but those generally didn't have air holes drilled into them. Nor did they jump and pounce when people got close. Eventually, one would have to stop, sit still, and listen to the ramblings and ravings of the disco-Piyo-man in order to figure out what was going on.
"Hey, cats!" he shouted. "Come one, come all to our hoppin' Holiday Raffle! ONE LUCKY WINNER TAKES ALL!" He whistled sharply. "That's right, my friends! One of YOU lucky ducks could win the ENTIRE stack of gifts and presents you see, right behind me!" He whipped his bell around in a wild gesture. "Impressive? Of course it is! And! It comes complete with its own hefty KS pot." He did another disco spin and pointed to the kettle of Keystones next to him.
"Would you like a go at this fabulous prize? Of course you would, pal," he chuckled. "Then peep your gazers over at the rules, my fine friend!"
-RULES!-
1. To enter the contest, RP your entry here! All you need to do is post. You don't have to pick a number or anything.
2. This is a potluck raffle! In addition to RPing your entry, you must donate one of the following things to join!
----One or more pets (Send them to me in a trade note)
----Any amount of KS, with a minimum of FIFTEEN KS to join (I'll post the amount of KS donated here, so I won't spend it, don't worry)
----If you already donated in the Secret Santa help thread, simply link to the post in which you donated pets, and you'll be in!
3. The raffle will be open for entries until DECEMBER 24TH. In other words, it closes on Christmas Eve.
4. After the raffle ends, I will draw one person who randomly entered the raffle to win. That person will win the ENTIRE raffle pot: All the pets AND all the KS paid as entry fees. At that point, I will send them all to the person who won.
5. BONUS MINI RAFFLE! If there are any pets left over from the Santa's Workshop RP, there will be a smaller Bonus Raffle! The Bonus Raffle will open when the Santa's Workshop RP closes. You won't submit pets for that one, or KS. You'll just RP for that one. Watch this space for Bonus Raffle details!
