+218 It'd be cool if there was a holiday called "Fantasy Day" or something where we all had some realistic costumes and acted as our own sort of wild character for a day, just to express some inner creativity. While some people may rely entirely on costume, others could have accents or stories or something. It'd be one wild day, but it'd surely be interesting, amirite?

Another name might be "Extreme Cosplay Day"... imagine that on the calendar!

Who or what would you be?

That's the toughest part! I could be someone from something, or I could make it up. But if I had to make it up I'd be... some sort of rebel. Not a punk rebel a warrior-ish rebel kinda like some assassin. You know small weapons, minor armor, massive threat, lives by his own rules. I'd have a husky voice and amnesia, like Shadow The Hedgehog and I'd never answer a question directly.

WRONG! Halloween is a holiday where kids dress up as someone can demand candy from random adults. Fantasy Day is a holiday where everyone is in full-character all day interacting in a present day setting regardless of what the SELF CREATED character's time period is.

So it's Halloween, without the candy. Any adult who's too self-conscious for Halloween would be too self-conscious for Fantasy Day. If you won't dress up as someone else's character, why would you dress up as your own?

Because there is a holiday for it!

Yeah... my point is, there's already a similar, less potentially embarrassing holiday for dressing up. Less embarrassing because making up a character, while allowing you more creativity, entails opening yourself to more criticism for the idea. It also involves a lot more work. Based on how few adults make use of a holiday meant for dressing up in premade costumes, I don't think they'd take advantage of a second holiday for them to make their own costumes. Sorry.

I feel like this could go horribly wrong. Some one would be like "FANTASY DAY, I'M A TERRORIST." and things will just go downhill from there..

Well there would hopefully be secret agent characters to restrain said character.

I feel like this is just a way to expres yourself, which you can do any day. You don't really need a special day for it.
