Attack of the Skyrats

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: Waves lap at the shore as the sky turns from blue to gold. "Could there be anything else more lovely?" he thought as he cracked up a bottle of Mad Dog. He could happily fall asleep right now, but no sooner had the scent wafted out of the bottle than a swarm of noisy seagulls descending upon him. "Damn skyrats," he sneered. They totally ruined his mood, but it wouldn't be a day at the beach without them.

Summertime! I have some great goodies relaxing at the beach to show you. From Boys of Summer is the Jolly Roger shades by 7 Mad Ravens. They come in either red or black and have a x,y,z script for resizing. Be sure to pick up the free Boys of Summer lounger while you are there. The Mad Dog lounger and lamp you find at the Unkindness main store. The lamp light can turn on and off at touch. The Loungers have several poses includes. ...Over at Summerfest is the Salty hair by Tableau Vivant. This is cool style and it does look like salty windswept beach hair. lol it includes a nice hair scalp too. I love the hairline on this one. Also don't miss at Summerfest these wonderful Seagulls by Ohmai. There are 4 gulls in poses, 2 that fly, and one for a shoulder pet. Each gull is animated, will squawk away noisily, and will add realism to your beach. Seriously, so me no beach feels like beach without the skyrat squad lurking close by. lol There are several breeds to choose from. I used the Franklin gull because it reminds me of the gulls we have here where I live. ...From the Japanese storytelling adventure, Mizu, is the awesome Wet Shirt by Gabriel. It works with the TMP body and the default avatar. The shirt is limited to the event so if you haven't been yet, I highly recommend it. You can pick up a hud for the quest at the main landing. ...From Collabor88 is another wonderful creation at C88 sale price by Trompe Loeil, the Kiya Beach Hut and pier. The set comes in several hut colors. ...On sale now is the KYO piercings by Haus of Darcy. You can scoop these up for a steal of a deal at the current round of Tengoku no Rakuen. ...The Bali fitted mesh shorts by Swagga work great with the TMP body, and also come in default size. ...The necklace is by Ison and it'd mod to adjust for a good fit. ...And lastly, the sandals are by ILLI. They work with Slink and TMP and come with a hud to change to the different texture zones.

World Goth Fair: What We Do In Cursed, 2

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: It had been one year since the walls around Cursed fell. Those imprisoned in the City of Cursed for being "dark" won their freedom at last! Scarlet, the leader of the Rebellion, was finally reunited with her long lost sister Elizabeth. Their joy was overwhelming. But like any sisters, they eventually had some disagreements.... At first the arguments were over little things like clothing borrowing without permission. Just normal sisterly squabbles, right? Well, mostly. Only a sister of Darkness would threaten to add her sister's head to the collection if the Baron La Croix's sacred skull was not returned immediately.

I'm so happy I was able to return to the Elizabeth and Scarlet plotline from last year. It felt unfinished to not show their reunion last year. But since a year has past, well..., Elizabeth is discovering some of the unpleasant sides of her older sister. lol

The Femdom throne and Gullotine at by Unkindness. The set is a new release for ROMP. The Queen of Hearts throne includes several sitting positions, and the guillotine has a uncomfortable pose for the naughty. The Kendo Sword by Souzou Eien is from the current Anime round of Genre. It comes script with changeable holding poses, or unscripted. You can mod, so I added a red tint to the grips. The Rose cane is by Chaos Panic and Disorder on sale at World Goth Fair. And the Gothic endtable, cognac, and glass are by 22769 ~[bauwerk] on sale at World Goth Fair. The Skull is a group gift from Contraption and the Baron's top hat comes from the Tableau Vivant Samedy hair set. ... Scarlet is wearing the jacket by Dark Water Designs on sale at World Goth Fair. The system corset and fitted mesh skirt with texture hud are by Sakide. The Charlotte boots are by Bliensen + MaiTai. They come in red or black and have a texture hud to change decoration on the boot from rose to raven. Scarlet's pose by Black Tulip is one from the Lost in the Woods set, on sale at WGF. ....

STORYLINE: Despite their differences, (and silly arguments over who is the hottest Hottie in Cursed), Elizabeth and Scarlet had a bond so strong the wall that kept them apart broke first.

The hats and Scarlet's necklace are from the deviousMind gacha at the Fantasy Gacha Carnival. Each item has 5 colors you can select from a popup menu. Scarlet is wearing the Crystal Spider hat and collar and it makes me happy since the Spiders are a symbol for the Rebellion in my Cursed storylines. ...The collar on Elizabeth is by Sweet Lies, also at the Fnatasy Gacha. ...The white bat on Elizabath's shoulder and the red bat by Scarlet are from the Arkham gacha by Swagga. They're so awesome! Best looking bats in SL! ... Both Scarlet and Elizabeth are wearing the Chelo hair by Olive on sale at the Dark Style Fair. You can get a simple color pack, larger color pack, or fatpack. You can color the streaks separate from the back of the hair.

World Goth Fair has released it's DJ schedule for the big day, World Goth Day on May 22, and it's even longer than in the past! Schedule below. WGF has lots of staggered releases, some will be released on May 22nd for World Goth Day, so be sure stop by and enjoy the tunes.

 

The Collection of Madame Mon Dieu

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: Ah,... RockStar on a high after kicking ass hard in an arena of screaming fans. Could there be any man riding more high on extreme levels of testosterone? Perhaps, but Madame Mon Dieu preferred the sexy musician over danger seekers. There was no better challenge for her particular talents. It gave her a special thrill to seduce them as an adoring fan, luring them into her lair. Little did they know, they had met their match. Madame Mon Dieu would leave them crying like babies and begging for more.

ROMP time! Be sure to get the goodies today before midnight. For this post inspired by several items, I had an idea of Rock Star vs Dominatrix. Fulli is helping me out. While we both felt out of our element in this pose for ROMP by Rack Poses, I think we pulled it off leaving some to the reader's imagination. ...Lots going on here. Let me start with the Skull Boots by Swagga. You can pick three color versions on sale at a discount at We <3 Role Play. The pants were a gift by Tameless from Apply Your Body Hunt back in March. The Drape top by Tableau Vivant looks great with The Mesh Project body on sale at the Xiasumi School Festival. For a change I am wearing a darker sunny skintone, Tone #7 by Tableau Vivant. The face applier is the new Yukio head by TV on sale at The Men's Department. This badass guitar is a raffle gift at BareRose. The TV Bohemien Male hair is on sale at Shiny Shabby. This style works great under hats! The ass kicking Tank helmet is by Couture Rock. ... Full is wearing the Winter Fleur Cuff by Forever Famous on the ROMP sale. The corset is Fifis Boudoir by Junbug. (Junbug's main store is under construction right now and this outfit is not currently out for sale.) The boots are by BAX.

In the setting are two objects that were a part of the Rock Attitude Fair by Unkindess: the Roadie Bench in black with several poses, and the Bad Axe guitar wall art. Both have different color options. From last month's ROMP Fresh round is the sleek Decadence furniture bench, and Black Leather Bed by 22769 ~ [bauwerk]. You can get both sets in PG or Adult at the mainstore. It's wonderfully made and low land impact. The new ROMP round The Little Black Dress(er) by Fetch matches it perfectly! It gives a little more female touch to the Decadence set's look. Another item that is a must have, is the wonderful Industrial Cages by Souzou Eien.  They look simple, but once you add them to your setting, you see just how awesome they are. Both cages include a single pose that fits an avatar perfectly inside. I love the long chain. The cages worked great hanging from the EliBaily Stratford Industrial Loft which was for sale last round of the TMD. (Note: The skybox does not appear to available for sale right now.)

False God of the Wastelands, 1

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: Every hero has a nemesis, and so did Jesus of Pripyat Park. Before the Apocalypse, the God of the Wastelands had been a minimum wage mechanic named Seth. But in the new reality, he was a ruthless tyrant drunk on his power. How did such a spectacular rise happen? It was due to a simple fact; there were no factories to make parts, and no one knew how to repair pre-war technology. The EM Pulse Warheads wiped out more than bank accounts. Every "How To" manual was also erased. The one who had memorized how to fix things from bikes to guns to refrigerators became greatly in demand. 

Lots of stuff going on here. Seth above is sporting several new items from Tableau Vivant and two of them are clothing! Yes, T.V. has returned to clothing items and these two are winners on sale at Secret Affair. I love the leather texture on the Leather Skinny pants. They come in male and female, as well as the Fringe Leather Collar. The Faux Dreads hair is rigged with a long back, for male or female. I paired with it another fantastic new creation by T.V., the Short Cut Hair base for TheMeshProject head and default on sale at the new round of Creation.jp. I love this hairbase! And the last goodie from T.V. is the new Alyx skin on sale at Skin Fair. You can buy the Alyx skin for the default avatar for 990L. The body appliers for the TheMeshProject are also there close by. And some more big news, those of you who are owners of the Loud Mouth, T.V. now has appliers! You can pick Alyx for Loud Mouth on sale at Skin Fair.

Now let me tell you a little more about this outfit. The wicked cool steampunk cigarette and holder are by LaNoir Soleil Designs and it's their gift from Steam The Hunt. While you're there, you cna pick up the matching Chained lip-ear steampunk piercing. The Sovereign eyes are the new group gift by IKON. The Aviator Headset is from a gacha by The Forge at Secret Affair. The smokey eyemake-up for TheMeshProject Head is by Clef de Peau on sale at The Men's Department. The Duelling gloves are by FATEplay and come with a hud to close, open, and shorten the glove length as well as pick new textures. The Wastelands Bullet belt is also by FATEplay. The latex gloves are an applier by Female Poison. The boots are by Razor. The goggles are by Death Row, and the pose and mattress are Post Apocalyptic Hangout by Death Row on sale at Secret Affair. Also there are the Incendiary Tree and the Dystopia Threshold by RavenGhost. Shanty Repair Shop, and I Fix Your Shit sign are from the Unkindness gacha at Luck of the Irish. ...I will tell you more about these items in post 2.
