The Pleasure Palace: Welcome to Cursed

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: As the ex-A.N.G.E.L was led under guard to the dungeon, a sudden swarm of bats attacked. He had never seen such a thing in his whole life. But these were not normal bats, they were huge! In the chaos, he made a break for it. Plasma blasts were fired at him, but he didn't stop. Suddenly an enormous black form landed in front of him. Giant bat wings spread out blocking his path. "You are quite difficult to find Lost One. However after the stunt you pulled on live television, it was only a matter of time we find you." The A.N.G.E.L stumbled backward in shock. "Wait, you're a vampire?" He turned, and looked behind him. Other vampires were attacking Kujo's guards too. "But I don't understand," he shook his head. "I thought I was the only one left. How is this possible! There isn't enough pure human left in the world, how do you feed?" The white haired vampire smiled warmly, "There is much to talk about, but perhaps at a more opportune time. Come, we will take you home to the city of Cursed. You are welcome to stay with us as long as you like."

The moment I saw the preview picture of the Marquise bed by Kalopsia, I knew I had to have it! Can you believe it's only 100L at the Baroque round of Genre? Run go get it! It's a no brainer! The canopy is 7 land impact, the bed is 20, and it's mod. It has single and couple pg poses. Next to the bed on the right is the Coffin Couch, also by Kalopsia. Seriously, every vampire needs one of these babies. The back side has a pall bearer bar and handcuffs. lol It's 8 land impact, comes in adult or pg, and white, tan, or black, and you can mod it. It was from ROMP that ends today but should be moving to the main store soon. Also from ROMP, to the left of the bed, is the Frogstar Solitary Satisfaction Bench that will work perfectly in a gothic or baroque bedroom. It's 2 land impact, comes in either white/silver or black/gold, and it's mod. It has pg and adult single poses for men and women. The rest of the room are goodies I have collected over time for my bedroom. The rich red rug is part of the Evendim set by Senzafine that was at World Goth Fair. The candelabra are from the Gothic bedroom set from Akaesha's ReACT Castle Gothica Bedroom Suite. The candles on the floor are by Mesh Nation, it's original mesh with full perms. Providing the soundtrack to the spooky goings-on is the Contraption Orchestrion: Haunted Maze music box which I tinted red to match the room, lol. The red curtains came from the Gothic Gaslight Chaise by Snowbound. The castle is Poetica's Ivy Tower dark. ... I am wearing a fantastic crimson clock by Junbug from a past Fantasy Gacha. I played that thing so many times to get the red. lol The hair is one of those rare ones that work on both guys and girls. The bat wings are by Remarkable Oblivion. The mask was a wonderful gift by LNS from World Goth Fair. Under the cloak I am wearing the Red Phamton by Rokumeikan.

World Goth Fair: The Spyder Guard

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: The leader of the Black Ops in Cursed was none other than Noble Elder Maximilian, the progenitor of the Spyder clan. The Spyders had their threads throughout the city, nothing happened without Maximilian's knowledge. The plain-clothes Spyders hidden in the crowd had taken Elizabeth to the safe place in the sky, the BatHouse of the 101st. While Maximilian personally escorted Scarlet there to meet with her sister. Maximilian was a mystery to most, but Scarlet understood his mind. He was all knowing and powerful but slow to act. She understood he choose his battles wisely. Taking on another ancient, Kaiser Kruel (also known as Horemheb), is nothing to take lightly, but some battles were worth fighting for. The separation of humans and Darks was wrong. Petty differences didn't matter, they were all family. it was time for a conversation, time for two sisters to finally embrace.

Wow I have a lot to cover here. First check out this wonderful retro-80s punk vest by Papermoon. I really love the attention to detail Papermoon does. The vest you can get in several different textures for girls or guys. Then you can pick out back patches for either punk, metal patches, or gothic. On the front buttons you can pick your music genre too. And here's the fun part, the patches and buttons are rigged, that means you can wear these fun button and patches on any outfit you like! Just add buttons to create an instant retro look! The shades by Eclectia I am wearing come with a hud to change to the textures on the frames and lens. I love the options on the lens that include shading up or down and shattered. For my Security look, I included the retro headphones from the Standby gacha, and the group gift armband from Epica (but added my own logo to it). The jeans are by favorites from Ronsem that include a speical closed boot fit version. The belt comes with a hud to change it's colors. The gloves are by O.M.E.N and comes with open and closed attachments. The Iron Cross necklace is another great item in the LNS booth at WGF. It comes with a resizer and bead color changers. While you're at LNS, be sure to pick up the free beautiful masks gift there!

Scarlet is rocking a lot of badass here. She is the leader of the Rebellion afterall, but she still has a tender heart. She's wearing the goregous corset by Couture Rock. I love how this corset fits around the waist and then opens up around the hips. There is a little black lace fringe too. The back has black ribbons. Her necklace is also by Couture Rock and matches perfectly. I didn't show it here, but there is a cameo stocking also at the CR booth that matches the corset, be sure to check that out too. The shoulder armor and finger armor are by Death Row and on sale only a few more days at We <3 Role Play. The Amor and ring also work on the guys. Scarlet's boots are wonderful chained open boot by Death Row availible at Dark Style Fair.  To wear these you need the Slink High foot. To go with it, I used the Gallactic Symbiosis pants with appliers for Slink feet. It comes with appliers for the hands too. I love this texture! So alien and organic like. The armwarmers are a return to Scarlets outfit from last year by Inkubus by SAKIDE. The 2nd fingerclaw is from LNS and you pick it up in several different colors. (All the girl vampires will definitely like this handy spiky thing. lol) Her nail polish is Dark Passion's Koffin nails Shades of Red. Scarlet's signature hairstyle is Ivy by Alice Project. Her blindfold has a little iron cross and safety pins created by Kio at Dark Style Fair, and her sleek black horns are Damned Princess by DirtyStories at Dark Style Fair. The wispy anthers are by Death Row at Suicide Dollz. They look really cool when you wear them, almost like little glittering lights the tiny white points in them. Scarlets skin is an exclusive by Jalwa at World Goth Fair. It's the Celine skin with lovely gothic purple makeup for eyes and lips. By the way, did you guys pick up all the little gifts throughout the three World Goth Fair sims? Be sure you get your free sunblock 1000 at Chaos, Panic, and Disorder before the summer gets here. lol

Alice in RMK: March Hare

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: When in Wonderland, if you want to find the March Hare, go look in the garden. She's often hovering near the garden party, sipping tea and nibbling on delicious cupcakes.

I'll be honest with you, I feel awkward when blogging things for the girls, but this Little Lolita has really grown on me. She's adorable. When I dropped by LCKY to pick up their nice Femboy Hunt hair, (see image below), I spotted this hair. During the open of Final Fantasy Fest there was an anime neko girl wearing it, and it looked amazing. She drew a crowd of guys around her who just stood there like idiots, watching her do adorable things like beat her friend with a cartoon hammer that made a cute Boing noise with each hit. lol. So naturally I thought this hair would be perfect for Little Lolita as the March Hare at RMK Gothic. Little Lolita's outfit and glasses are both from the Alice Market at RMK. This is an area of the sim that has store booths with items in the theme of Alice in Wonderland for sell. The dress by Ambrosia comes in black dot and pink, mint, or blue, and a Limited Edition RMK Gothic white and blue Alice version. These fun wonderland heart glasses "Doubt" by AIR are partial mesh, and you can edit them like I did to give it a slight tint. The antique collar is a gacha by Theater Chain at RMK and if you are lucky, you win the rare prize a full lolita outift Baby Christmas. And wrist cuffs are by LouLou&Co.

On Her, The March Hare:
Dress, hat, garter, stockings: Ambrosia Princess Prom Dress - mint_dots [mesh] (Alice Market)(200L)
Glasses: AIR Doubt  [mesh] (Alice Market)(500L)

Final Fantasy Fest: The Pride of the Viera

(click to enlarge)

Fulli is teamleader for this post. She's calling the shots on concept, pose, and music video. Here's a message from her: So everybody that ever played Final Fantasy 12 knows the Viera, a pretty peaceful bunny-hybrid village..., full of girls! So after talking with Dev I thought how would possibly look a male Viera? The result you can see how Dev shows so nicely. And seriously, every FF XII player asked himself at one point how a male Viera would look like, no? Also, I want to tell about the SL FF RP Sim. It is pretty amazing. Gives a nice game feeling. It is based on FF VII. The people are very nice and don't mind to help starters! Really recommended :)  Don't forget, the FFF goes till Feb 21 so when you wasn't there yet, jump on your Chocobo and off you go!

So that's how this post started, Fulli gave me the challenge to create a male Bunny Boy. lol. I used the black version of Evo's Viera's Pride and kept the eyes, scalp, eyebrow, lip, and armor. I thought long about a style of outfit that might be male Viera-ish, and the gorgeous Kung Fu pants by Jomo came to mind. They are pitch perfect. I added a quiver and belt from Pucca Firecaster from the Fantasy Gacha. The harness by Dark Prophet Designs is from a past Fantasy Gacha. The cool cheek tattoo is Reno Reloaded by Lovely Disarray, and the piercing that go with it are by Haus of Darcy. You can find both exclusives at Final Fantasy Fest. The shape I am wearing is not made by me this time, it's a creation of Aseria. It's a male on female base and made really well. This shape not available anymore, but you can browse other great shapes in his marketplace store. The skin I am wearing is once more the Sephiroth skin by Miraragon on sale at Final Fantasy Fest. The hands are the mesh demon hands by Death Row, and the black arm warmers are by Stone Baubles for Men at Final Fantasy Fest. Finishing off the look is the black leg warmers and bunny paw foot by Fiction and Chaos.  ... Fulli is wearing the complete Evo Viera's Pride. It comes with everything pictured above and also has a shape, helmet, and hair. The bunny-foot heels are really cute. Her hair is one she's been wearing a lot lately, it's by LaNoir Soleil Designs. It was from a past hunt, but you can go the LNS gift room and pick it up as well as many other incredibly excellent past hunt items. ...Now you guys be careful out there in your adorable bunny outfits, you never know what characters you might attract. Hop along little bunnies.
