Regular Poll Story Poll for Oktober 2025

The time has come again. Poll story voting time!

This times theme is "Halloween Preparation". Everyone knows that Halloween is on the 31st of October. But ever wondered what happened before that last day arrives? Someone has to figure out, how many ghosts to send where, where to grow the pumpkins and how many, how to make sure that its also a full moon so that the Werewolfs are satisfied, but not too bright so that the vampires dont complain. Its a logistical nightmare every time. And sometimes, you just need to transform someone ahead of time just to make sure on the real day, everything goes swimmingly.

Also as a refresher: This is the REGULAR patreon poll for Maries followers (3€ Tier). There is also a Premium Priest only poll where votes are worth twice as much as on the regular poll. Priests are allowed to vote on both polls, giving them three times as much voting power, if they so choose.

All submissions are in this form:

-Which Character are we talking about
-What do they change into
-A brief summary

Which one of these prompts would you like to see me write?

Idea 1:-Skull/Ryuji (P5)

-Turned into a Nightmare aka. a centaur grim reaper.

-The phantom thieves find the most curious thing on a sidepath. It's a small palace in the making, very much halloween themed. Through hijinx the group gets split up and it is actually Ryuji that meets the Palast owner first. Although the owner isn't all too threatening. It's a grim reaper themed dullahan girl who, after seeing skulls... skull masks, deems him trustworthy enough to know that she can't ride a horse. But she really needs to practice for her headless-rider entrance on Halloween, because she can't afford to embarrass herself. So after debating a bit back and forth what Skull can do for her, the girl decides to turn Skull into Ryukuro, the Nightmare centauress, so that she can have better feedback on what she is doing wrong. Imagine the faces of the rest of the thieves when they find Ryuji turned into a female centauress begging for her friends to help her as she is literally used as a horse for a practicing dullahan girl.

Idea 2:-Mukuro (Dangan Ronpa)

-Werewolf Girl

-Due to some unfortunate circumstances the Werewolf has caught a bad case of poisoning... he is set to pull through fine, but no in time for the Halloween Monster Mash. As one of the pivotal monsters, a werewolf is required so they need to make one, but it cannot be anyone off the street. To make a new 'temporary' Werewolf the would be victim needs a connection to wolves, pretty hard to come by in the modern age and all. Fortunately there just so happens to be a mercenary at Hopes Peak Academy with just the right spiritual connection to make the transformation stick for the Mash

Idea 3:-Flint and Stella 

-Dullahan girl and skeletaur girl respectively. 

-These two were just walking through the woods near the countesses manor when a Dullahan (Mercy) and a Skeletaur (Vengeance) appeared before. Thinking they were about to become ghosts for this Halloween party, they get... excited of course.
But that's not what Mercy and Vengeance. They are sick of having to "reap" souls every year for the Halloween party and decided that Flint and Stella would be ideal for this role. So Flint becomes both a woman and a Dullahan (wearing very revealing and impratical armor) and Stella becomes a Skeletaur- gaining boobs that form the shape of oversized breasts of course.
The two then venture town not sure what exactly the "quota" is that they were told to reach. And because just slicing at people's heads is too nasty, they decide to turn people into ghosts... with wacky cartoon hijinks. Falling pianos, falling anvils, fallen 10 ton weights (they aren't very creative). The town becomes an absolute mess of instant crush traps, but hey at least it doesn't make a mess~ The two go to the manor telling the countess they totally met the quota... by turning everyone into town into ghosts! As you can imagine, the countess is both angry and unpreparred to feed and get drinks for so many.

Idea 4:Maomao (Apothecary Diaries)

-Busty Goth Cat girl with lamia bottom.

-A jiangshi needs to prepare some unique dishes for their monstrous guests. They need someone specifically familiar with poisons and won't be adverse to working for monsters. In exchange for Maomao’s help they are willing to part with the recipe for a medicine to revive the dead. While Maomao is working she accidentally breaks her taboo in regards to corpse - which leads to some unintended consequences. When the Jiangshi gets back her latest employee is looking more like a guest.
