World Goth Fair 2014: Scarlet's Sister

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: The Council of Elders decided it was cruel and unusual punishment to snatch people from their lives for displaying any hint of "darkness" and dumping them here without warning, never to be seen again. They thought it would be "merciful" for one day a year, to open Curse's gates for tourists and the foolhardy. Since there is no bigger holiday in Cursed then World Goth Day, it made sense that would be the day. Two neighboring human cities, Sium and Port Seraphine are also joining celebration. Rumor has it, Scarlet's little sister Elizabeth will be among the visitors.

Sneaking over here is Blogger Bat extraordinaire, Aarya Phantomhive of the Dark Phantom blog. She's wearing the Astarte hair with a widow peak bang by LaNoir Soleil Designs. This fun Miyuki outfit by Fosca de Le I'm sure many of my Lolita readers will love. It's especially cute when you add the Bat garter by Squeek! and match it with the Batwing Ruffle Platforms by The Sugar Garden. These badass Lolita shoes work with the Slink flat feet and are must haves for every EGL. Her arm warmers by Greymoon you can pick up over the WGF Sium sim, and the make up and nails by Beautiful Freaks. The Loli nails texture is awesome, perfect for Lolita style. Adding a little more punk is the spiked headband by Dark Waters Designs. You can find it at the Gacha Pond.

FutureWave: A Vampire's Fate 2065

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: He was an A.N.G.E.L., part of an elite force of guardians protecting the Eden, people who were free from all genetic engineering and cyberization. These untainted people were the most valuable things on Earth. His job was an extremely dangerous one. But his motives for doing it were not exactly noble. You see, he was just protecting his food supply. Good old fashioned humans were a rare thing in 2065. A vampire can't live on a cyborg's "transistor fluid," or bite the neck of a disgusting horseshoe crab blueblood freak either. The blood needed to be pure human, not glow-in-the-dark human jellyfish juice.

The awesome folks at Cursed have brought to you a new event, FutureWave with the goal of showing designers' own vision of the future. The results are amazing with many different styles of the future, and even some retro! The sim is a cool cyber city in the sky in black and cyan. Club Gothika mobile unit has moved to the cyber city it's DJs of Goth will be there rocking your moonboots.

Wednesday 2/19: 8-10pm SLT – Lokii Violet (Wednesday Night Spiral)
Wednesday 2/19: 10pm-midnight – Bronxelf (The Wednesday Night Darkwave)
Thursday 2/20: 2-4pm SLT -Cruel Britannia (Gothika After Hours)
Thursday 2/20: 10pm- midnight – Bronxelf (The Thursday Night Apocalypse)
Friday 2/21: 8-10pm – Lokii Violet (Friday Night Spiral)
Sunday 2/23: 8-10pm – Pie Zipper (Sunday Night Pie.)

Not only were the designers challenged to show their vision of the figure, but the Cursed team challenged us bloggers too! This post shows my thoughts about what would happen to a vampire in the future.

STORYLINE: He was on his way to escort an Eden to a new safehouse when a Bounty Hunteress, dressed like a A.N.G.E.L., got the jump on him. (To see this storyline from the Bounty Huntress' point of view, go to Aarya's Dark Phantom blog. She has great coverage on FutureWave for the girls. It was fun to team up once more on an event, Blogger Powers Activate! -^)

To appreciate this outfit you have to see the moving parts. The Devine wings by Death Row flap. They can be turned on or off as well as adjust the speed. Tempest Dragons by DiGi circle around you and you can tint them whatever color you like. The halo animates too and is part of a cyber angel set by Amelie Barbour that's completely free! Don't miss the also cool cyber typing effect by Amelie Barbour, it's free too.  My mask is from the Blue Falcon gacha. Very cool and only 50L a spin. The jaw attachment is by Death row and comes in several colors: mono, bluesteel, toxic, and steel. The outfit by Blue Falcon Industries is actually system clothing layers, but it's so nicely made and even works on male and female! I like it a lot! The Tinker Taylor boots are by Miamai. There are two base styles, one clean like I wearing above, and one with straps and gold buckles. When you wear these boots you need to make your leg muscle standard size medium or lower. I am wearing the WarmIndustrialWristBracer by STONE Baubles for Men from Final Fantasy Fest once more. It just comes in so handy, and I could tint the metal parts to give it a cyber look. The skull gloves are by A:S:S and come in full length and fingerless. My Galaxy nails are amazing. They're by Beautiful Freaks. I will be wearing them a lot because they look so cool, and work great for men and black gloves. On my arm is group gift armband by Epia. It has hud that changes colors, emblems, and resizes. You can also edit tint. My Cyro Hair is by A&Y Cyber Bunker. It comes with a hud that lets you customize your cords and falls with a huge selection of textures! I am wearing a rigged mesh neck corset by Etchaflesh for men! Looks badass ... Hurry to FutureWave! It closes on Feb 23rd.

World Goth Fair: The Spyder Web

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: High above the reveling crowds of World Goth Fair, Viscountess Spyder straightened her back. "What's wrong?" her husband asked. "I'm not sure." Her brow knitted together as she stretched out her senses along her nearly invisible web. Her threads were spun throughout the eternally dark city. If anything was amiss, she would be the first to know. "A human girl. Among the population. I'm sure of it now." Viscount Spyder scoffed, "That's impossible. I sense nothing. Do not worry, come sit." He padded an open spot for her on the lounge. "No human can enter Cursed."

I'm feeling a little bit Gomez Addams in this brocade and pinstripe Shadowdancing suit by Inspired Designs. The outfit comes with matching shoes and top hat. This wonderful gothic umbrella is one of several designs you can win from Gacha Carousel at Cursed. The fuzzy Cheshire chair is by Nawty Box and it is indeed nawty. Mrs Spyder is wearing an outfit by MV that comes with flexi skirt, mesh corset, neck corset, top, pants, gloves, and Lola Tango applier. The setting of this picture is taken inside The Temple by Nacht. The roof is large purple stain glass rosetta, and the outside has gothic arches and spires. For the outside view, I made panoramic from the Venexia sim. There's still time to head down to World Goth Fair, enjoy the music, get great gothic items, and help raise money for S.o.p.h.i.e. For more information go to: http://worldgothfair.wordpress.com Fair ends May 31st, noon SL.
