Hi there everyone!

This is the new blog for the Paranatural Secret Santa event. The previous coordinator of the event is no longer hosting it, so the old blog will no longer be used. You may be wondering... what now?

What Is Paranatural Secret Santa?

Paranatural Secret Santa is an event that takes place during the holiday season. You get assigned to a person to make a gift for, you create that gift, and you also receive a gift! This secret Santa is themed after the webcomic Paranatural, so if you are a fan of it and create fan content, this is perfect for you!

Notable Changes

Paranatural Secret Santa now has a new coordinator! My name is Cody, and this is my first time ever managing something like this. Please be patient with me, and contact me on any of my socials (listed in the description of the blog) if you have any questions, concerns or problems relating to the event.

There is a new gallery website! This website will contain all of the gifts from this year's secret Santa for your viewing pleasure. It will not contain gifts from the previous years however. The website is currently empty, but as gifts get sent to their recipient, they'll be added onto the website. You can find this website here.

There is now a brand new, fresh URL! Its now just paranturalsecretsanta now! Yay!

Application Form

You can apply for the secret Santa on this form! There is also extra information there in case you missed something.

Schedule

November 8th - December 4th - Applications are open.

December 5th - December 9th - Applications close, and secret Santas are assigned.

December 10th - December 24th - Working period.

December 25th - January 17th - Posting/ Receiving/ Extension period.

This year, extensions will NOT be offered to people who don't finish their gifts by January 17th. However, the posting period will also double as an extension period. Also, because of the secret Santa starting later than usual this year, the schedule is fairly condensed. So, don't expect to receive your gift by the 25th, don't expect to get extra time, and don't expect to turn in your gift by the 25th.

hey @dafukdidiwatch, im your @pnatsecretsanta!!! i did some rave spider for u bc how could i see this guy and NOT wanna draw him LOOK AT HIM

you mentioned that his tool is a disco ball possessed by an armadillo and after conducting some Very Scientific Research i didn’t see any established design for them so if there IS one and i missed it I APOLOGIZE but i went ahead and had a little fun with the concept myself 👉👈 i hope that’s okay! (ive been calling them armadisco in my head but again if u already have a name for them then simply DISREGARD THIS,)

anyway this was REAL FUN and i hope you like it as much as i enjoyed creating it! happy holidays and have a wonderful new year!!! 💖💖💖

if there are two things that i believe, they are that 1) spender cannot skate, and 2) he’s probably freezing in just that outfit and is very cold sensitive

@quirinah Here's your @pnatsecretsanta gift!!!!!!!!!! Somehow, in my mind, the idea of a fantasy au morphed into the Newspaper Club playing D&D together, so that's what I drew! (I don't think any of them actually know how to play the game lol)

I hope you enjoy!!!

yooo @junk-thrillz i was your @pnatsecretsanta!!! among your mentioned likes were the school store four + collin, ocean aesthetic and magical girl au’s, so i made the five of them into an ocean themed magical girl squad!

there’s a cover for their theoretical manga (+ a textured “realistic” version for fun), and then a few “screencaps” of the anime adaptation from the infamous Hijack Arc, in which the monster of the week captures jeff and turns him against his teammates, who then go on to save him through the power of their unbreakable friendship, in true cheesy anime fashion ❤

this was a lot of fun to put together, i hope you like it!!!

(also, not every concept i brainstormed made it into these final pieces, so here are some extra thoughts and such under the cut :3)

even though i feel like cody is more typically associated with blue, i made him pink because he’s the leader of the team and everyone knows the leader is always pink!!!

i gave each individual member their own ocean-related theme, so cody’s is a pirate captain, because it’s a leadery type of role. his weapon is a cutlass as a nod to canon but it’s pink and magical and fun instead of murdery bc this is a G-Rated Funtimes AU,

collin is blue simply because that pink + blue duo am i right ;)

he has a sailor theme, so he’s got a cute lil hat and sailor uniform flourishes on his outfit (the collar, the double stripes, etc)

his weapon is a harpoon bc idk that’s sailory right. even a lil bit

jeff gets orange/yellow because he’s the funny lovable one!

i wanted to give one of them a sea creature theme, so jeff’s theme is jellyfish, which is reflected in his headband and the like, puffy side part of his dress there? it’s a little abstract but hopefully u get the picture kgjdkfjd

his weapon is lil bombs (but Magical), mostly because i thought it’d be a fun reference to the hitball arc... u know, round ball-shaped objects being thrown.... etc

violet is purple because.... i could not resist i am sorry it’s so GOOD

i struggled with her theme, i admit... but it ended up being kind of piratey, but more crewmate than captain? she has that little tied sash around her waist, and the skull bow hairclip is meant to reference a skull and crossbones, which tbh i feel like fits w her general aesthetic anyway so like? it works imo

her weapon (not pictured unfortunately) is a blunderbuss (funny pirate gun)

and finally, lisa is green, because... well she was the last one i assigned a color ghdkfjdkgj i think under normal circumstances she absolutely would’ve been purple bc she’s just got that Vibe u know, but since i wanted to give it to violet so bad i went with green for lisa. i think it suits her tho? it’s kind of a seafoam green, to be a little more oceany hehe

her theme is like, the beach, seashells, etc. the swirl in her hair reminds me of a conch shell so i just kinda. stuck one right in there. and then a few other things like bits of coral and sand dollars and pearls as added decoration

she also has some netting and a few shells around her waist to sprinkle more of her theme throughout her design

her weapon (pictured in the first fake screencap) is a Sick Trident that she looks rly cool holding iajs,

also, their normal everyday clothes have little nods to their transformed outfits! not all of them made it into that third fake screencap but here are the concept sketches!

violet: a skull & crossbones hairclip to reference her skull bow hairclip

jeff: a pair of orange headphones to reference his headband (they should have that jellyfish pattern on them too but i didn’t draw that)

cody: a pink beanie with a little gold feather pin to reference his pirate hat

lisa: a bracelet with a sand dollar and some pearls to reference her hair decorations

collin: a navy blue bowtie with little white stripes to reference his sailor theme

finally, some extra bits i came up with while brainstorming the kind of universe this would all take place in:

the premise is sort of like pnat in that it takes place in mayview, but instead of spectrals and spirits there are magical girl squads who fight monsters (same as the ghosts & spirits basically) to protect the town. rather than mayview being simply overrun with spirits, it’s disproportionately attacked by them, ergo the need for magical girls

the ocean team isn’t the only squad around; another one is made up of the activity club (max/isabel/ed/isaac), who i was thinking would have a steampunk theme? and then i was toying with the idea of the jang being another team, but i hadn’t really thought as far as to what their theme would be

just for fun, the ocean team has a magical pirate ship they can fly around on, and the steampunk team has a magical train they can ride around on, not unlike the ghost train (just like, more steampunky)

the reason there can be multiple teams without everyone stepping on each other’s toes is because there are different types of monsters to fight. i don’t know exactly what differentiates them, but each team’s specific brand of magic only affects certain types of monsters

the journalism club consists of suzy, who is investigating the identities of these mysterious magical girl squads (bc Of Course no one is able to recognize them once they’ve transformed), collin, who is frantically hiding the fact that he is in fact a member of one of these squads, and dimitri, a former member of the steampunk team who left for unknown reasons and now does everything he can to throw suzy off their trail. neither collin nor dimitri know of the other’s true identity (for sure, that is. dimitri has A Hunch)

so yeah! i haven’t had too much time to elaborate on the idea, but that’s what i managed to come up with! again this was a blast, au’s are so fun ;w;

ANYWAY that was a lot of rambling lol but!!!! i hope this is as fun for u as it was for me! happy holidays!!!! 💖💙💛💜💚

Well, hello dearest Paranatural fandom!

The Paranatural Secret Santa 2020 is finally open for applications!

A time for joy, the secret santa has run since 2015 (on two separate blogs), and this holiday season it comes with a new, fancy look. Sleeker, shinier, sexier, i-can’t-think-of-another-adjective----!

I hope to welcome back some old participants again, it’s always a pleasure to work with y’all but for the uninitiated:

What’s a secret santa?

A secret santa is a gift exchanging event where you’re assigned a person to make a gift for, and another assigned to make a gift for you. Art, fic, edits, videos, playlists, we’ve had some music composition, anything you can make goes!

Here’s our schedule:

November 1st - November 22nd: Applications are open

November 23rd - November 25th: Applications close, Secret Santas are assigned.

November 26th - December 24th: Make Your Gifts!!

December 25th - January 1st: Posting span.

Still having some doubts? You’re unsure of some things? Check out the FAQ for all of the common questions. Don’t see your particular question? The askbox is always open, I’ll answer as quickly as possible.

Lastly, if these ramblings have convinced to you participate, you can join by filling out this form or submitting the template to the blog.

I’ve gone on for long enough, so, have a nice day and stay safe!
