The sixth annual Dobby Swap is here! For those unfamiliar, Dobby Swap is our version of Secret Santa. The gifts are all accessible online, and the gift-exchange comes at the end of December so that everyone will have more time around the holidays. Check out last year's swap!

Everyone who signs up will be given the name of another member, and will have about a month to create a gift. You'll (secretly!) submit your gift to the Dobby Swap team, who will then deliver it for you when all of the gifts are in.[1]

How to Participate

• Post in this thread to sign up!
• Please sign up by November 21
• When sign-ups end, you will receive a PM with your Dobby Swap
• Keep your swap a secret!
• Send your present to the Dobby Swap account by December 29
• The Dobby Swap team will deliver the gifts when we have received all of them!
• Once you receive yours, you are free to share your gifts in this thread!

Gift Ideas

Pick one of these or do your own thing!

• Drawing of a character
• Avatar and/or signature images
• Photo manips or collages
• Polyvore sets
• Poems, songs, or stories about a member's characters
• Playlists/mixtapes
• Tumblr blogs

Reminders

Remember that gifts should not cost anything and should be accessible online!

If your Dobby Swap has a lot of characters, you can always choose to focus on just one or two. (But feel free to include all if them if you would like!) Have fun with it!

If you have questions about signing up, need help with your gift, or if something comes up before the deadline, feel free to reach out to the Dobby Swap organizers: Waker Nolan, Gracie Slant, and Akiva Katz-Eleor.

I'm in!

(I play Zia Piselli, Claire McByrne, Jules Deville, Edolie Fern, and Frederick Dodger in addition to Jai, obviously. =D)

I'm in.

I love this.

I've got Shade, Asher, Arrow, and Illyria at the moment.

It just wouldn't be the Holidays without Dobby Swap (That means I'm in )

I'm in, I'm in! I do love me some Dobbyswap. <3

OOH! I MISS THIS! MEEE! PICK MEEEE!

*It's the most wonderful time of the year.
With the writers all laughing,
and the characters chatting,
you'll be in good cheer!
It's the most wonderful time of the year!*

Im In

Of course.

If I am not too new, can I join in?

Everyone is welcome to join!

Also, to clarify, we are putting primary accounts next to members' AO names just so that everyone will easily know which characters their Dobby Swaps play. AO is a big place! But any or all of a member's characters can be included in the gift. It is completely up to to each gifter!
