Aengima: Dreadful Depths: Reach of the Octopus

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: Hidden in the dark, a dangerous stealthy predator waited, his many tentacles coiled ready to snatch his prey out of the open ocean. He was about to take down a Great White Shark that dared to stray into his territory when suddenly a school of tiny female Dumbo Octopus surrounded him. He waved his arms to shoo them away, but the girls seemed to be quite smitten with him, latching on him with their tiny cute little arms. But one of them was too nervous and accidentally inked. She was so embarrassed she hid in his coils.

Night of the Tentacle! This post was inspired by the animesh Tentacle prosthetics by Clover at the Mainframe event, and the many goodies at Aengima: Dreadful Depths. The tentacle themed tattoo is by Lilthe. The bubbles and adorable Dumbo Octopus is by Naminoke. From Gorsimi is the face makeup and tentacle necklace. Other tentacle themed goodies, from Immersion are the bento hand membranes, and Octopus hair by Weather or Not.

STORYLINE: Finding good performers for the circus is hard to do these days, unless you happen to be a gifted necromancer like the Ringmaster.

I'm Mad mad mad for 7 Mad Ravens! Almost everything in the outfit above is M7R!  Don't miss out on  7 Mad Raven deals at the Thrift Shop this round. The Creep You Out creepers Punked Out V-neck Top (see below), and Body Bind are all on discount at the Thrift Shop. Over at Totally Top Shelf has a wonderfully wicked Carnival theme for all your Evil Carnie needs. I love the 7 Mad Raven Freakshow Ticket and Eyeballs Popcorn rings. Over at the main store, you pick up these badass Bat Wing Neons. They flicker and glow sporadically, and make funny comments in local chat. They're from the Neons gacha, and you can win several styles. The Gullillotine necklace comes in bloody and clean and works for girls and guys. The Crash Jeans Heavy Grunge are wonderfully textured like you've been rolling around under cars in a mechanic shop for weeks. lol The Jacket is really cool shape, short in the front and long in the back. You can pick it up in several different colors. And the last of the 7 Mad Raven goodies is this badass Devil's Waitin' Fedora.

STORYLINE: Finding good performers for the circus is hard to do these days, unless you happen to be gifted in the dark arts like the RingMaster.

I went crazy with this set, the idea being Carnival Cemetery. lol The Undead Puppet is played by Kariritaisho. She is showing the lovely Sugar Garden Head mesh head with gothic makeup. Her hair is cute braided updo with bow by Sweet Things. You can pick it up at the Kings and Queens fair. While you are there, drop by Dollle's for the this interesting umbrella-like Farthingale dress. Her Ballerina ribbons are by Bacio, stockings by Cannibelle. The Puppeteer pose is one she won at the WetCat gacha.

Now let me tell you some more about this setting. Twisted hunters are in a very nice treat, Death Row had created a spooky cool mesh Carousel! It spins and you can sit on horses or the booth. Fantastic gift! Thank you!  The Open Raven Tomb and the Dearly Departed grave series are all new releases by Noctis. You have edit permissions so you can move things around if you need. The tomb comes with poses, lighting, and creepy ground fog. I love Noctis so much, the textures are so nice and create perfect ambience. Adding to the scene, is the Contraption Dulci'matic from the current round of The Arcade. I love these music boxes too. Next to it is the Sess Tester game by Theosophy at The Arcade.  Behind it, is the game Whack-a-Noob by Weather or Not and I'm happy to report they have returned to SecondLife! Just follow the link on the stylecard below to go to the new store location. Welcome back <!WorN?> In the back is the Madame Zola's Fortune teller set by Noctis, this is an oldie but a goodie and comes with poses too. The others tents are by Gothic Desires and come some adult animations, it was prize from a past Twisted Hunt.

World Goth Fair: A Storm is Coming....

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: As a Deathhead Scout, my only job is to radio in when I spot forbidden acts of darkness. It's the Deathhead Hunters that swoop in and take out the trash. They really enjoy their job too. There are hardly any Darks left among the human population in 2023. But despite this, the little dears are restless. The so-callled "Bats" have left the tower on their self-appointed holiday, World Goth Day. I better keep a sharp eye out for troublemakers!

It's time to get your Goth on! World Goth Fair has begun. Walking around the World Goth Fair, comments I get most often about this outfit I am wearing are: "Omg. Your skin, who is it?" "Cool headphones," and "LOL! Cloud!" First, let me say this new skin by Tableau Vivant is fantastic. I am wearing Nathan tone 14 which has a shiny metal look to it. Love!  The headphones are by Down Down Down and come with a color change hud so you wear them with all kinds of outfits, they are super cool and fun to experiment with different colors! The Wearable DOOM Cloud by Weather or Not is my new favorite pet. Giving some loves to men is LooLoo with a cool casual Goth outfit in mesh that includes hoodie, short, and boots. My jewelry is by Chaos, Panic, and Disorder. This necklace looks so great when you wear it, you will love it. And like all of CPD jewerly you can mod it and change colors like I did here to make a blue tint. Speaking of blue, how about the glow in the dark demon eyes by Rue, and glam rock blue eyeshadow from Marilyn Manson-ish Shock Rocker pack by Songbird?  Love!  The batwings are a free gift from Coco. I'm in Goth Heaven!  Run go have fun at the Fair gang! There are two sims of Gothic goodness. Many of the items I am showing from the Fair are exclusives with 100% of the sales being donated to the Sophie Lancaster Foundation. And on May 22 for World Goth Day, the Cursed sim Club Gothika will be rocking for 14 hours solid.
