Engine Room : The Celestial Mafia, part 1

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: Hovering high above the soot choked city was the Celestial Mafia’s headquarters. 
Nothing happened in New London without Mob Boss K’s permission. K was ruthless, so it came as no surprise when his power was threatened, he immediately summoned his best Crew head.... "Thank you for coming quickly J, I have an urgent mission for you."

The ENGINE ROOM is back, and this round is truly amazing! For my posts this round I'm going to try to show as many things I as can, and challenge myself to do it in a comic book/manga-like style. It's been difficult, so I had to scale back my ambition some to not take too long. lol  I hope you enjoy it, and please let me know if you like it. Many thanks to Aarya Phantomhive for her help with pictures and feedback.

The first image was inspired the elegant Toksik Bibliotheca outfit, and sweet gothic steampunk background by The Eschaton. Also from the Engine Room is the fun animating Gyro that you can wear, and the eerie gold eyes by Hellbourne.

The Pharaoh's Dog 1

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: What happens when a God King, who ruled for millennia, is unwanted and exiled for his hardline belief Human and Nosferatu can not co-exist? He disappears like ash scattered on the wind is what. Of course they were still terrified of him or what he might do next. No one knew where he went. Not even Gin, his devoted lieutenant. But no place was too far, too cold, or too bright. Gin would never give up searching for his beloved Pharaoh. Never.

Heads up, tonight is the last call for the Fall round of ROMP. The next round will be in January! Shown above is the the dog bed by Roawenwood with food and water bowls. The bed and eat bowl contains poses. By Swagga is the Puppy Play pack that includes collar, mask, tail, and cuffs for wrists and ankles. It it RLV enabled. And of course Swagga added some fun humorous chew toys you can pick up for 75L each or get the whole pack. The fitted mesh harness and codpiece is by Ap.Parel. It comes an variety of colors. I paired with it these cool TMP applier pants by Roosters. And once more did my "wear two bodies just so I can have these badass latex gloves by female poisen." lol I know, I'm crazy. The belt by :Sey is old school prim, but it's just so good being adjustable and having all those dangly straps on it. The Vamp Ears are by Trap. The Mile High Hair is by Ploom. I got lucky the other day in gacha and won these awesome black platform sneakers by FLite. And this is important male mesh body wearers, you can pick up a cool halloween pale skin, Mino, by Tableau Vivant for on sale at the Men's Department.

STORYLINE: Gin found Kaiser Kruel hiding among the humans in the City That Never Sleeps. Kaiser's wrath was truly terrifying. But Gin silently endured his master's rage. He wasn't human after all, he could handle whatever the deposed tyrant threw at him. But no matter how violent things got, there was a deep bond of trust between them. They knew each other's limits. For Kaiser, he had someone who would never abandon him no matter his crimes. And for Gin, he was the only living soul who saw tears in the mighty Pharaoh's eyes.

On sale at ROMP, Titzuki created some Must have poses, blood tattoo, and even blood dribble strings I know the vamps will all love. Shown above is the TMP applier blood on chest tattoo.

Akaneiro Oni - Blade for Hire

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: Akaneiro was an Oni gone rogue, a hired muscle. He was known for being a capable Ronin, but few of the dwellers in the village realized what he was hiding under his hat, his tale-tell Oni horns.

I have a treat for you guys today, a fantastic sim I discovered! Soyokaze is a role playing sim that's beautifully made in the Edo Japan period. They locals are friendly (unless you draw a sword like I did for this picture. Drawing a sword is seen as invitation to get into a fight. lol) There is a cool interactive game on this sim, The Code of the Bushido. Some quests are puzzles, some require a 2nd person, and one of them requires skills and practice to pass. I recommend it for all fans of games in SL.

Before you head to the sim to explore and play, you will need to dress for the part. Above I am wearing an awesome new creation by Swagga, Ronin's Soul. It's one piece fitted mesh and it includes the top, pants, belt, two sheathed katana, and a water bottle. It's on sale now at We <3 Role Play. The Oni pauldron, bracers are an excellent new gacha by Pucca Firecaster. Touch the armor to resize it and it will also deliver to you a texture change hud.  All parts can be resized in the edit menu. The hat is another gacha item, but this one is by 22769 bauwerk. It was from a past Secret Affair, and sadly looks like it's no longer available. (I couldn't find it at the main store location.) The geta are by CerberusXing, and I added a fun tint to them. They can work with either slink or TMP feet, they not rigged and editable. For fun, I added the deep red nail polish by Senzafina. It's just one hud and it will add color to both hands and feet at the same time.

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: It was not his lack of skill or Oni magic that got him captured, it was bad intel on how heavily fortified his objective was. Still, he made an oath to return to the Sacred Oni Lands once he escaped. He sensed the Oni had lost too much power. The humans had grown too bold. They no longer feared creatures such as him. He decided it was better to die in a last stand among his brothers and sisters then to suffer the humiliation of being captured by humans again.

What We Do In Cursed, 3

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: Lilandra was an eccentric artist. Unlike the other Darks, she slept in the night and worked during the day. Her paintings were highly prized among the Dark for the powerful emotional chords they struck with the viewer. Others tried to emulate her style but ultimately failed. It was a mystery. She said needed privacy to create her masterpieces. Most accepted this explanation, however there was more to it. 

Happy WORLD GOTH DAY everyone, and welcome Akira Voorheese to the blog. She was a great help. I told her I was looking for a Bride of Dracula, ancient, vampire, and elegant. And just like that, BOOM, she had it done. Awesome. ... This first image uses heavily the wonderful Vanitas gacha by Noctis that ran in the October Tag gacha. When you touch a painting, it will slowly become more painted. It will also send you a paint palette and paint brush. I love these. (5/23/15 UPDATE: Good news! This gacha has returned to the Noctis mainstore at New Babbage.)  I included a few more artists studio gacha items from the School Festival last month by Sorgo and vive atelier. I'm a sucker for art studio stuffs. Love it. ... Akira is wearing several nice gacha from the Fantasy Gacha: the deviousMind crown and necklace, and the Una Bronte dress. She's wearing two hairs by booN. She thought I was crazy to suggest wearing 2 at the same time, but it looks great. Thanks for your help, Akira!

STORYLINE: The truth was Lilandra mixed blood into her paints. She collected "blood scent" from various places, animals, and people. You see, to a Dark a blood scent can evoke a mood. It's similar to how music, or color can effect a human.

Oh man you guys, this setting is beautiful! I am in Vampire Heaven! lol The gorgeous bed is by Death Row. It comes with a hud to change 2 of the drape colors, comforter, and pillows. Like all Death Row furniture, it includes lots of poses for male, female, couples, and adult. It will attach props to you too, just click accept when a menu pops up. ...

NEWS YOU CAN USE: Low Land Impact Mesh Chairs

Over on plurk, we have a Linden Home makeover challenge going on. Also I am searching for pieces from my inventory that might be useful for the mini version of RMK Gothic (coming soon!) The purpose of this post is useful information. It's no frills raw images taken without advanced lighting and shadows with CalWL windlight on a 50% grey background.

BUT since this is an educational post, I included it in a big red box for "NO!" to let you know this chair is stolen content. I don't think the designer who used it knew it was ripped, so I won't include their name. Just stir clear of this chair if you see it. Please support the talented designers of SL who make things for us in SL. They need our love and support. Thanks!

The Conservatory

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: Among the Children of the Night, the Black Baron was considered a military genius. But after one too many defeats, his enemies finally discovered his weakness, Lady Edelweiss. The Baron's secret rendezvous with his human mistress did not escape their spies. They were licking theirs fangs with delight. What a shame it was for the mighty Baron to love to such a fragile, easily manipulated creature.

Time for a ROMP!  You have until midnight SL tonight to scoop up the excellent sales on these delightful romptastic creations. To get a list of the stores and links, go to:  Rompfair.wordpress.com

You know I love a good throne, and the Carved Wooden Throne by Dysfunctional Designs is a must have! I love the style on it. You can change the color of the fabric and the wood. It has 7 solo poses for girls, 8 for girls, 12 cuddle poses, and 8 adult poses. The setting was inspired by the Iona Conservatory by Trompe Loeil on sale now at Collaboe88. Also at Collabor88 is the cute corset by Junbug. And another Must Have is this excellent Military Drape Great Coat Set by Mr Poet. It's a steal for how much awesome stuff comes with it! (coat rigged and unrigged, vest, shirt, neckscarf, aiguilette, medals and watch chain) I used the unrigged one here, I like it better unrigged. (btw, Girls can also wear this unrigged version.) Everything is mod, so i adjusted the tints, sizes, placement, and materials. The hair I have on works great with the coat. It's longhair pulled to the front so no pokes on the upturned collar. The Neve II by Tableau Vivant is one sale now at We <3 Roleplay. And a special thanks to Fulli for her return to the blog after a ten month absence. Welcome back Full!

The Pleasure Palace: The Cowboy Stable

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: "A cowboy, is this really necessary?" The Eavesdropping Maid nodded eagerly, her dark eyes sparkling with mischief. He sighed heavily and changed into the costume of the Stable Boys.  How did he end up here? Once the drugs had worn off, it was not too difficult for the Cursed A.N.G.E.L to break loose from his bonds in the Eden Garden. He offered to release the girl too if she would do him two favors: one show him where Kujo was, and two feed him. She was not an Eden but as luck would have it, she was Near-Eden. He didn’t know if was an elaborate plan, or just dumb luck, but he was not going pass up a gift neck. She told him the Pleasure Palace was the Underworld Boss' private playground. It was full of mini-theme sections. The Cowboy Stable was the closest to the Mansion. So his plan was to sneak inside, and confront the double-crossing jerk Kujo.

Can you believe FATEplay is one year old? To celebrate, FATEplay has released a fantastic new collection for girls and guys in a Fallout theme. Above I am showing the bullet belt and very cool tattered bottom Duster from the Dusty set. The bullet belt is rigged, so it works best with the pants made for it, but I got away with this more revealing version. lol The underwear is by Ap.Parel and on sale at ROMP. The chaps by ZED are gorgeous. You can wear them with the jeans option or be daring and go without! The Gunslinger hat is by Remarkable Oblivion is stylized cowboy hat with a Fleur De Lis on the front. It's on sale at The Men's Department. It comes in two color choices, and includes materials or no materials options as well as the xyz resize script. The bandit muffler from Contraption was at The Dark Style Fair, and sadly it appears to no longer be available. The Showdown cowboy boots are by Deco. They come with two options: full boot and 1/2 shown. The half shown is REALLY handy and makes the boots fit the chaps perfectly. The arm warmers are by Razor and they work with Slink hands or default hands. They come a with hud to mix and match styles. On the hip is the Kuro prop whip on sale at ROMP, and in the hand is the flexi-mesh prop whip given out the Dysfunctional Designs Lotus Tree. My grinning Pony friend here has a secret. He can give you a nice time. lol He comes with texture change options for the horse, harness, and rocker. In the background, is the "real" palomino and he's not too sure about that toy horse who's up to no good. lol He's by United InshCon. lol He also has color change options for body, mane and tail. The stable I picked up over a year ago on 35L weekend. It has poses for thje haystack on the 2nd floor. Reminder: The end of the month is coming soon. If you haven't picked the Tableau Vivant Echo skin yet, hurry hurry. It includes the appliers on tone 5!

The Pleasure Palace: The Garden of Eden

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: "Hey, Psst." a female voice whispered. "What are you in for?" The Cursed A.N.G.E.L shook off the drug haze in his mind. He opened his eyes but a blindfold was blocking his view. "Where am I?" She seemed amused by his question, "Kujo's Pleasure Palace, where else?" Wonderful, he thought as he shook the shackles on his arms. "So what are *you* in for?" "Eavesdropping. I got caught listening at the door while Kujo bragged about all the money he made when he threw some big fighting match," and then she added with a whine, "They chopped off my ear for it!" The A.N.G.E.L suddenly had a very bad feeling. "Where's Kujo now? He promised me,  ...something." 

This fancy sensual build was inspired by the Dysfunctional Design's Lotus Tree on sale at ROMP. Like all Dysfunctional Designs the land impact is stunningly low at 6LI. Touch the tree and you can change the foliage from green to autumn to bare, and the flowers (not shown) from pink, lavender, gold, to red. It has 9 bondage animations and 4 cuddle animations. The rock has materials that create a nice wet effect. It's linked together but each part can be edited. Both poses used here are from Nani available at ROMP and include mesh cuff and chains. The Princess Cage by Stockholm & Lima contains 10 animations and is RLV enabled for capture. You can change it's color theme from gold, white, silver to iron, and it has 4 land impact. I am quite smitten with Kalopsia these days, and I'm showing you once more the Hanging Tree that was part of the Little Red Ridinghood round of Enchantment because it's just so damn cool. (btw, the new round of Enchantment starts August 1st). I used the red draping fabric here but you can touch it and change the color to black, blue, green or white too. It also can be edited and tinted. The "Do Not Feed the Animal" sign is actually a shackled wall pose and the sign hangs above you. lol It's from a past Fantasy Gacha but you can still play it at the Rack Poses main store. (fyi, The new round of the Fantasy Gacha starts in August 4th.) The opium tray is part of the Miss Wu's opium set by Noctis. The store has moved to New Babbage, follow the link below to check it out. The arrow through the arm is a free gift you can pick up at the entrance to the Rustica store.

You can get it in white, black, blue, yellow, and green, male or female. My vampire loving friends, check out this gorgeous Thorn Crown, and Thorn Jewelry set by Souzou Eien. The thorns look like they have tasty little blood drops if you choose the red gemstones. The texture change hud has other colors you can choose for the metal parts and gem stones. I am wearing the thorn ear cuffs but it also comes with thorn earrings. I'm wearing the badass wet hair look from Argrace. My precious wecious Snakeypoo gumdrops makes his return to the blog. lol He was one of the raffle prizes at BareRose. I think he and his black cobra friend are retired now, but so many wonderful items are at the BareRose raffle, it's worth the wait. Behind me is the must have new release by Dysfunctional Designs, the rose bush. It's on sale for Fifty Linden Friday but since sim was down for most of the day, it will be left up on sale for Saturday too! It's only one prim land impact. Touch it and you can change the rose colors. It comes in 3 versions: normal, with dirt mound, or flower pot. You can even pick a rose and hold it in your hand! Nice!

The Pleasure Palace: The Opium's Curse

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: There was defeat in victory. The Cursed A.N.G.E.L was bleeding badly. He needed blood, lots of it. He was delirious. He had already ripped EVA limb from limb, and still he battled on. He attacked spectators blindly, but the blood of genetically engineered humans could not satisfy him. The thirst drove him to more and more horrific acts of violence. Standing calm in sea of screeching people was a man with a dart gun. He knew the Cursed A.N.G.E.L's weakness. A dart soon found it's mark, and the A.N.G.E.L collapsed. ..."Opium. God, why did it have to be opium?" he moaned. He hated that crap. Opium cursed him. If only he hadn't been so damn high on that moonless night long ago, he would have realized from where that bump-in-the-night came, and ran like hell.

ROMP is a fantastic new event for adults with the slogan of "elegant kink." That's right, the best of SL designer's have created new quality products to spice up your sexy time. Don't miss it! For my first post on ROMP, I am showing the Slingback chair by CerberusXing. It comes in teal, pink, black, beige, and purple. Each chair comes with hud will change the silk drap texture and you can also edit tint it like I did above. The chair has 7 single animations, 9 cuddle animations for couples, 5 cuddle animations for a threesome, and the adult version has 9 animations for couples, and 7 animations for threesomes. All poses are adjustable and can save your settings. Land impact of 10. ... The silky heart shaped bed is by Bauwerk. You can get it in PG and Adult. The PG version has 27 single animations, and 38 couple animations.  All poses are adjustable and can save your settings. Land impact of 14. ... Other pieces in the settings are the Kumotori Bath house with purple orchid. I tweaked the textures on it to remove all symbols on the rice paper. The Madpeas bonsai to the right is from the past round of The Arcade. Outside is the Enchanted Pond by Studio Skype and the Dysfunctional Designs Fenghuang Statue.

Now a little more about what we are wearing. Aarya returns to BishieStyleSL for a cameo as the vampiress who created the Cursed A.N.G.E.L. I wish her a speedy recovery from surgery and hopefully she can return to blogging soon. Her outfit is by Barerose, hair by Truth, skin by Glam Affair, and pet Shiro is a gacha by Aii. ... You'll have to forgive me for mixing styles here. The Ao Dai by Barerose comes with pants, but who needs those? *throws away* lol Besides, look at these excellent shoes by BOOM. They have a materials' suede look to them you can see in advanced lighting. They are sale at Collabor88 for only 88L and come in girls and guys and many colors options. The Runaway hair Darcy is from Manga Fair. I love the bangs, and though it's meant for girls, it works perfectly on the guys too! The smoking pipe is fun older item by Rozoregells and it contains several poses with the pipe, like I used above. The dark headdress is from Latex Web and was past gift. I combined it with the TAMA Japanese Lantern hairsticks from a past Genre round. The pearl necklace is from Monster and has several strands. It comes with a resize script. The arm wraps are by Dark Prophet Designs from a past Fantasy Gacha. ... ok, I will be bringing you more of the ongoing story from Cursed A.N.G.E.L, and more great things from ROMP!
