Richard knew he would be blamed for all the opened and jumbled gift boxes, but his keen eyes spotted evidence of the real culprit, hiding in a mysterious red fog.

A Blob Gone Wrong- A Sad Christmas Tale
Ghosphazdt was a very spirited youngster who got in with bad company. Or so I was told by a blob who contacted me, claiming to be his maternal aunt. She felt very bad for his sainted mother when he left on a Christmas Day in 1997 with his lowlife companions Dazzy MatBall and Stuffy Gnome, and was never seen again by the family. She is certain that this wrongdoer is indeed Ghosphazdt and provides this photo as evidence. She hopes when apprehended that some mercy will be shown to him, as he, a very bright blob, was a victim of bad influences.
Freebies: A Curious Christmas Gift, NG Holiday Gnome Stuffy, Christmas Cheer Iray Shaders and others that got DOFed.

Caught in the Act
Last Christmas, the night before, I tried to sneak up on the presents as quietly as possible. I should have known that Grandma Linda had cast a spell to alert her if anyone got close to the gifts. And, of course, she just had to capture the moment in a photo… brilliant!
Let’s see if I can find a way to break that spell this year.
(This girl is called Lucy and she is a witch and her grandma Linda of course too! :))

Upside-down
In the morning, one of the presents was empty and the tree was hanging from the ceiling. Only a trail of slime pointed to the perpetrator. Sheriff Mole is investigating.

A Mysterious Christmas Gift
Young goblin Glydensia, while shamelessly peeking into all the family's Christmas presents at 3 AM, found a strange trembling creature...

Norman Gnome, PI
There’s a holiday menace on the loose, so Santa’s elves called their favorite detective in to help. Norman Gnome, Private Investigator, and his assistant Noland are now hard at work. There’s been another report of strange happenings, so they’re diligently looking for clues, and it appears Norman has made a slimy discovery! He should have this case closed in no time. But what in the world is Noland making so much noise about?
I wasn’t 100% sure what kind of freebies we were supposed to use, but I had already asked one question and my social anxiety would not allow me to ask another XD So I obviously included the “A Curious Christmas gift” product, and it specifically stated that it counts. Then, I added 3 (only needed 2) other Vendor Advent Calendar Freebies, “NG Holiday Gnome Stuffy”, “Xmas Pillows”, and “MMX Stone Shader”, because I was running on very little sleep and apparently couldn’t count to 3. Then to be sure, I also added 2 “regular” freebies, like the ones we usually use in the monthly freebie contests. Those are the “Magnifying Glass”(https://www.renderosity.com/freestuff/items/93558/magnifying-glass) and the “Smoking Pipe”(https://www.renderosity.com/freestuff/items/95642/smoking-pipe). Hopefully that covers all my bases!
