Vietella

In a world where the dark elves were created by the dragon god of tyranny and all the pale elves were simply mutations of them, adjusted by the other gods, the draconic elves lived on the desert continent of Qalia.

Their society was strictly hierarchical with a great emphasis on the legion and the ranks within it. Their leader was a queen, although otherwise they had gender equality: too busy to rank their citizens based on the purity of the blood to worry about genders. The respect that the strength of dragon-blood in one’s veins carried and the scandal for its thinness or lack was an elemental part of the culture.

Vietella Varayel was born and raised as the heiress of a noble house. She was taken care of and taught by slaves, her noble mother seeing her once a year, her esteemed father evaluating her worthiness and value when she turned ten and assigning a psionicist teacher to her at that point. Her talents in mindreading magic were only one part of her education though: there was history, tactics, diplomacy, plotting, scheming, etiquette, seduction and the fine art of smiling while backstabbing your enemies. True draconic virtues.

Her life took a sharp turn when her House was betrayed — another true draconic tradition — and destroyed by their rivals. The only reason why she managed to escape was that the leader of the mercenary House overseeing that no one escapes knew her and had a weakness for her. He hid her and in time introduced her as his sister. She put her talents in use to raise this fledgling House to power to one day claim her revenge.

That is how it started. After that it was roleplaying and co-leading a guild in a mmorpg called Vanguard. Vietella was a wonderful character to roleplay and I enjoyed the game immensely. The reason why I’m blogging about her suddenly is that Pancake from Renoobed set a blogger challenge about roleplay-characters: make one (old or new) and write a biography. In Vie’s case the problem was that there’s no way I can fill even basic information in this tiny space nor even dream of touching any of the actual roleplay that went on, but I had to try. So much nostalgia.

Catching Up With Colours~

A year full of colours, perfect excuse to dig into your inventory and play dress-up, different colour every week. That’s more or less the nutshell of LunaJubilee’s 52 Weeks of Color Challenge. She lists a new colour every week. I didn’t even know there were 52 colours, yegads. My colour perception is practically male: light brown, dark brown, what’s the difference? Fortunately she provides a colour sample every time so I can try and match that! And hey, it’ll be randomly educational, too! Not to mention fun. ^_^

It’s week fifteen of the challenge now, which meant I had fifteen looks to cover. To make the post less picture spammy I actually used a photo studio and then just snip-copy-pasted three in one. Since I was lacking in my usual environment creation fun, I challenged myself in another way: matched the styles of the colours per picture. Can’t make it too easy on myself, right?

The first three colours — grey, blue and goldenrod — turned out to be manga-ish school girl characters. Although I think Miss Blue might be a teacher. I started with flailing about if I’d find anything in goldenrod, going ‘That’s a colour? O.o’ a lot until I finally located that shirt. It called for school girlness, so Miss Grey and Miss Blue just had to live with it. All of their poses are from Ks2cool.

Grey: skin – Frick, eyes – Kosh, hair & scarf – Curious Kitties, tattoo – Moloko, gloves & top – The Loony Bin, leggings – Aoharu, lip piercing – Virtual Insanity, armlet – Zenith Fashion, coffin purse – DV8, belt – Gauze

Blue: skin – M.O.C.K. Cosmetics, eyes – Umedama Holic, hair – Wasabi Pills, dress – Miamai, tattoo – Schadenfreude, stockings & garters – Vinyl Cafe, butterflies – Minajunk, bird ring – KUE!

Goldenrod: skin – Imabee, hair – Red Queen, eyes – Poetic Colors, top – Paradisis, skirt & gloves – League, boom box – katat0nik, aether headphones – Belle Belle, socks – Rotten Toe

Plum was another tricksy one until I did a search for it and found this exact colour sample match hair from my anime hairs folder! Much rejoicing. ^_^ Then I poked around in my lolita folder and found a dress with exact same hue whales on it. Obviously Miss Sepia and Miss Yellow weren’t that difficult to dress up once I had the lolita style decided.

Plum: skin – Violent Seduction, eyes – Rita Eyes, hair – Little Heaven, dress & tattoos – katat0nik, necklace – Pink Fuel, pose – Lazy Places

Sepia: skin – Imabee, eyes – Sn@tch, hair – Curious Kitties, monocle – E&D Engineering, orchid – Orquidea, collar – Steam Powered Nuts, Inc., dress – Frick, pose – Estetica

Yellow: skin – Pink Fuel, eyes – Glam Affair, hair – Fatal Error, dress – Dilly Dolls, tattoo – Curious Kitties, cyber arm implants – Fatal Error, pose – Melancholia Lilliehook

Cerise was one of those ‘This is a colour? Yegads, it’s dark pink!’ moments. I did a search for ‘pink’ and tried everything on and much to my surprise found this vintage lingerie -and- shoes in exact colour sample tone! Who knew~ Miss Green and Miss Silver got to wear lingerie just to match lil Miss Cerise. You can’t really see the shoes on Miss Green and Miss Silver that well, but all three are wearing Grim Bros’s fantastic curlique filled wonders. There’s just something so delicate, decadent and debaucherous in those details. And other d-words.

Cerise: skin – Frick, eyes – Kosh, hair – BettiePage Voyager, lingerie – Dominion Fashon District (creator: pisi Ruby), shoes – Grim Bros, stockings – Lapointe, gloves – Sn@tch, pose – Natasha Martov

Green: skin – Heartsick, eyes – Plastik, hair – Sky Everett, jewelry – Ganked, lingerie – Style by Kira, stockings – Dilly Dolls, gloves – The Black Canary, pose – Niqotine Poses

Silver: skin – Frick, eyes – Kosh, hair – lamb, nightie – A&A Fashion, shoes – Grim Bros, jewelry – Mandala, pose – CnS E-motion

Two browns in one picture! I divided them in order and when I realized that I’d have two separate browns in this one, I just knew it’d be steampunk. I mean… my inventory is sort of black, black, black, red, black, blue, black, green, lots of browns in the steampunk folder! black. I am so miffed I couldn’t use hya-blue (Silent Sparrow) for the middle girl, but I just could not match it to the colour sample with good conscience. Fortunately I had Sparrow in sienna!

Sienna: skin – Frick, eyes – Plastik, hair – Waka & Yuki, dress – Silent Sparrow, goggles – Belle Belle, steampunk headset – Londinium Gearworks, hat – Illusions, pose – Olive Juice

Indigo: skin – Frick, hair – Waka & Yuki, eyes – Mynerva, hat – Perturb/ation, gloves – Atsuki Kayo, necklace – Mariposa, dress – Evie’s Closet, pose – Niqotine Poses

Taupe: skin – Sn@tch, make-up – Frick, eyes – Plastik, hair – Waka & Yuki, gloves, skirt & stockings – League, top & necklace – Sn@tch, pose – LAP

When I realized my last picture had emerald, black and red I more or less squeed. …and then I couldn’t decide if I wanted to make a fantasy picture or a ballet picture. So I made both! It’s like a joke: ‘A dryad, a drow and a demon walk into a ballet class…’ Obviously the demon is more interested in inviting others to dance and the drow claims she can’t dance without daggers, it’s apparently a part of her cultural heritage. The dryad was at least somewhat happy~

Emerald: skin – Sn@tch, eyes – Plastik, hair – Curious Kitties, dress – DV8, necklace – Fallen Gods Inc, pose – EverGlow

Black: skin – Ho Wear, eyes – Kosh, hair – Exxess Designs, dress – Mocha, ears – Illusions, necklace – Deviance, lip spider – EarthStones, knives – ODB, pose – Niqotine Poses

Red: skin – Red Queen, hair – Deviant Kitties, eyes – Plastik, tattoos – Fallen Gods Inc, dress – Evie’s Closet, horns – Trap, jewelry – Mandala, lip piercing – Nightshade, pose – Niqotine Poses

Whew. Next week I’ll start blogging colours one per week like everyone else… guess I have to come up with something else for extra challenge… maybe to match furniture or other props, too…

How do your pixels live?

I think it says something about the human mind that in the world where we can be anything we want, we often create most wondrous fantasy avatars, who then have homes with bedroom, living room, kitchen and bathroom. The very least. I have been plotting a full-freebie post about a fantasy avi, but I’m seriously having trouble finding a freebie skybox and/or other environment base for that avi to live in. Where as I could kit a dozen of different styled human avis and their houses with freebies. Especially now!

Putting my rambling aside for the moment to introduce the SL House & Garden Hunt! The blog is here and the beginning location is here. There’s 50 shops involved, all ridiculously high quality and the organization was practically flawless. By the time I started it, it was smooth, effortless and fun. It also did what only the very best of hunts do anymore — introduced me to several shops I had never heard of, but immediately fell in love with. I do not go through too many hunts these days, not thoroughly. I admit that I handpick, either based by blog posts or because I know I like a certain shop’s style and quality. There simply are too many hunts going on at any given moment. However, this one I did from beginning to the end and it might end up being on the top of the list based on how much stuff from a hunt I -keep-. So very warmly recommended. ❤

This beach house from Starwind Homes is my favorite from the houses and skyboxes in the hunt. It is interestingly built, has a wonderful colour scheme and even paintings matching it. The window sill has a couple of pillows for lounging upon, but I used the floor pillow from {what next} instead. I decorated the window sill with two bonsai trees from Organica, candles from Ambiance, ickle so-cute-it-kills tulip from LISP Bazaar and a little book pile from .SunnyM.

You can see more books from Aria on a window sill on the left, right next to the mostly yellow chair and table from Art Dummy. I set a bunch of fun make-up products from Dutchie on the table. Far back — somewhat hidden my by skirt — is a hacienda lounging rug with pillows from Ambiance (colour-change <3) and a lamp from Melia. Up in the ceiling is a ventilator from Cleo Designs. The paintings on the right are a part of the house, but beneath them is a canvas trio from Aria and Kessel table from Second Spaces.

The dress brings me to another hunt alert for August: No Strings Attached Hunt, for all you doll lovers. The blog is here. Orange and beige aren’t usually my colours (except possibly in steampunk looks <.<), but this dress was way too cute to pass. Not to mention conveniently matching to all this orange in the house. Oh, and it’s from Broken Doll. ^_^ Hair is from Curious Kitties, eyes from Poetic Colors, apple in her hand from Shade — none of which are a part of any present hunts. She’s wearing a lovely key jewelry set from Violet Voltaire, complete with a doll key, also a part of the NSA Hunt. I know, I know, not really visible, but I wanted to mention them just in case. The skin is from Nightshade and it’s a part of another interesting hunt going on at the moment, but I’ll ramble more about it in just a few pictures~

I blame the scarecrow. It just sort of automatically set the vibe slightly strange, mayhaps even creepy. Just a touch of it~ The scarecrow and the garden where my rogue rabbits are busy noming are from Herbalys. The grass is from MiaSnow and it’s tintable. It’s white, I added some green to it to match the rest of the scene. The picnic table is from Phi and the waffle maker on it from Reek. The yucca plant in the bottom right corner is from Blonde. The whole little garden scene is set into a tree sky garden from Zacca.

The slightly eerie broken dollie is enjoying the mood swing from Belle Belle. The broken doll skin is from F’ed Up, a part of the NSA Hunt. The dress is Blue Belle from Deviance, I believe it was in the lucky cupcake. Shoes are from Grim Bros and they’re my favorite dollie shoes ever, such details. ❤ The hair is from 69 (not free) and there’s Sounds of Nature headphones on her head, complete with little butterflies and all… the latest Themeory product from Tweedle.

Slightly darker and more modern dollie here, lounging on a pillow from UrbanizeD. Most of the things on the background are from Designer Prims. (The chair on the right, the taller table, all the things on it and the books under it, to be precise.) The wall decal that I shrunk and set under the window is from {what next}, the smaller table with candles on it is also from UrbanizeD and the collection of books and tasty looking drink and glass is dubbed ‘clutter’ and is from .SunnyM. The movie clapper is a part of a director’s chair set from Tasty and the skybox itself is from Barcode.

The Hellsing Manga, the bright red spot in the near monochrome room is from Atypical and a part of the Industry District’s opening celebration hunt. It runs until August 12th and you’re looking for tiny gears in corresponding shops, here’s the ride. The Nightshade skin in the first picture is from this hunt. Other things from the hunt in this picture are the tattoos from Endless Pain, lip piercing from Little Boy Blue, industrial fall out goggles from Forsaken and the eyes — what little you can see of their gleam — from Eye Factory. The skin and the outfit are both from the latest Black Bacchanal — skin by Nomine and outfit by Blue Blood. The hair is from Exxess Designs (not free).

So many hunts going on and I’ve barely scratched the surface again. @.@

La Vie Kawaii~

Also called ‘how we moved from a gothic manor into a garden cottage and squeed~’. Now, I’m going to try to pretend that this isn’t a completely self-indulgent post about home and hearth and bunnies, and all the avatars who run around in the said home, but… yeah. But hey. I am filling a gaping hole in the blog-verse by blogging about garden and yard items! There is so much awesome out there on the grid and no one ever blogs about it. I shall! Oh so reluctantly, yes. *coughs*

So let us start with the girl trio running amok on the grounds, here comfortably posing on top of the bubble chairs from Happy Mood~

The background scenery you see in every picture is this awesome megaprim with windy moors on it. It’s from Two Moon Studios and keeps up our immersion of not at all being situated near random shops or other people. Noes, we live in solitude (and cuteness) somewhere far, far away. The hills with big trees on them are also from Happy Mood. As for what we’re wearing… on the left is Sonya with Rotten Toe dress, Grim Bros shoes, C&D Benelli tights, Nightshade neck ribbon, Curious Kitties hair, Bastchild wrist corsage, Djinn & Tonic skin and an umbrella from Weather! or Not?. In the middle is Loki in Frick skin, Vixen hair, Brocade Tiger pants, Grendel tattoos, Phoenix Designs boots, Rag Dollz leg pistol & strap, CatniP bracers, Haven Designs top, Manna belt, Belle Belle goggles properly on her eyes and other pair of goggles from Hat Mechanic around her neck, because you can’t have too many goggles! Athelia on the right has Trap skin, Magika hair, Manticorp goggles, Rotten Toe dress & socks, Manna belt, Katat0nik shoes, Violet Voltaire necklace and Sweetest Good-bye armwarmers.

The yard is wonderful place for lounging about and having picnics. Who needs a kitchen table when you can do this?

That’s Loki and Sonya and a poor SL-bugged Happy Mood bunny. That or he’s getting into the Ozimals-mood and has decided he’s a mutant with black ears. <.< I’ll get into what we’re noming in just a moment, but first look at the scenery. How pretty is that? There’s mushrooms from New Trails, trees from Fox Labs, sparkly bubble chairs from Happy Mood, elven light tree branch thing from Forest Floor and of course the magically lit ground which is a mix from the products of Happy Mood and iTuTu. Sonya’s pose is from Ana_mations and Loki’s from Niqotine.

Here’s a close-up that drove us all into nom-craving. @.@

The lovely Japanese lunchbox setting is from Love Soul. It has two different caterings that you pick by touching it. The sushi roll mats (one open, one rolled) are from Sanu, the cookie jar is from Magic Nook and gives cookies when you click it, the tray is from Kinema no Tsuki, the coffee pot on it from Oblonski and the apple pie slices and cups on it from Falln. Sonya is wearing frilly shorts by LeeZu, top by Sn@tch, Waka & Yuki hair, Yabusaka sandals, Djinn & Tonic skin and a nom in her mouth is from Sanu. Loki is noming on a mousie mouth cupcake by Sanu and is wearing Maschienenwerk skin, Discord Designs hair, Peppermint Blue top, DV8 capris, Truth shoes, Ginza necklace and her practically trademark tattoos from Grendel’s Children.

Not everyone is happy with all this sparkly cuteness, of course. It is not, how shall we say this… very manly. *grins* Here we have Janos sulking at the fence, refusing to go to the guuuuuuurly area. Obviously the bubbles might give him cooties.

This from a guy with a panda cupcake on his shoulder… anyways! He’s sulking behind a fence from iTuTu, the inviting lanterns are from Zacca and they frame the path from Fox Labs. The flowers are from iTuTu and the trees in the distance are from Fox Labs. You all know by now that the bubbles are Happy Mood. ^_^ Janos is wearing an awesome sad panda tee from Before Sleep, panda cuppycake on his shoulder from Sanu, GQ Fashions pants, Discord boots, Kosh belt, Nosotr@s tattoos on his arms and Sassy Kitty Designs gloves. His skin is from Corrupted Innocence, pose from Snooky’s Poses and hair from Black Maria.

Even Aleksander, who has reluctantly set all this cuteness down for us, more or less escaped to the roof when requested to pose within it. Eventually he agreed to do sort of royal pose, especially after Vanis said he’d help the impression with a bodyguard pose! He’s obviously an elven assassin protecting the Black King. <.<

They’re on the roof of the cottage from Zacca, the background showing some Happy Mood birds, summer festival decorations from Nonino and flowers from MiaSofia. Aleksander is wearing The Abyss skin, Sadistic Hacker hair, Illusions ears, KWZ suit and Treads boots. Vanis is wearing Excess skin, Sadistic Hacker hair, Buried ears, LNL suit, pocket watch & gun and hoorenbeek boots.

Now, the only exception to the rule is of course Vanis. He doesn’t object to the sparkles, he thinks they accentuate him! This is why when Aleksander turns his back, Vanis sneaks off to woo his protegee. Or some such. Yesyes, we have way too much with all of this. *grins*

Athelia called this combination of looks ‘seducing angels down from heaven’. It was pretty appropriate, I must say. Athelia is all ethereal in a gown from Evie’s Closet, wearing Trap skin, ETD hair and Illusions ears. Vanis, on the other hand, is very much flesh and blood in his Excess skin, Calico Ingmann hair, Buried ears and DeLa armwarmers. He’s also wearing RFyre pants, Blitzed belt and tattoos. The snake one around his neck is from Demise, the arm ones are from Crimson Shadow.

Here’s the inevitable result of the dancing, of course. Athelia’s gown might have turned red, but it is still from Evie’s Closet! Not that we love Evie’s gowns or anything, noes. <.< Her now-black hair is from Sky Everett, but otherwise she’s the same. Vanis returned to his demented colour palette with the Excess hat hair and League gloves. The summer festival decorations are from Nonino, the tree and hill are from Happy Mood, lantern from Zacca, white flowers from iTuTu and red flowers from MiaSnow.

It’s needless to say that I’m of course having a blast with the surroundings and enjoying the looks, no matter what the boy avis say. Who knows, we might get some sort of steampunk gear factory or scifi ship the next time Aleksander rips the whole sim apart and builds anew, so better enjoy it while we can!

Butterfly on the nose (with the pose) from LAP (I adore it <3). LeeZu dress, Dark Eden wrist roses, Exxess Designs hair, Djinn & Tonic skin. Happy Mood treestump, bunny and birdies~

And why the title? Because most of the sim is a mix of Happy Mood, iTuTu, Zacca and Nonino — all Japanese designers. If you haven’t visited them, please do. It’ll make you squee, I promise~

Blogged to be Wild~

It’s about time the concept behind Creator’s Stamp Rally started spreading! It is an awesome one, and guarantees that the traffic in the shops actually pays attention to the products that are for sale instead of just wireframing through them. Not that I ever do that, noes. *coughs* Anyways, I’m talking about Wild Released. If you’re blinking cluelessly at the screen, please to be clicking that link and reading more from there~

I absolutely had to have three of the prizes. This meant I had to find three things with the card to buy! Onoes, I was forced to shop in my favorite stores, how shall I ever recover from this? Woe is me and so forth. Aand then to the things I bought! ^_^

I’ve been wanting to buy this dress from FlipSide for quite a while. It came with several colours, but this blue was so stunning that it became the theme for the whole picture. The dress comes with modesty bra whatnot, but seriously — who buys this dress to be modest? Not me. The picture is taken in the skybox by C&D Designs, I absolutely adore that blue wall in it. Speaking of things I adore: Mandala bracelets. The usual get-up of Djinn & Tonic skin, Sky Everett hair, EarthStones eyes otherwise.

I’ve always loved well-made pencil-skirts and high-waisted skirts (and pants) and generally all of that type of vintage look. It also fits perfectly for the character Sonya was originally created to portrait and roleplay. The outfit is from Silent Sparrow — so much squee for being forced to shop there, alas, alas! *grins* The skybox with the raven painting is from Coco’s Cottages, the desk is from Princess Gear. The necklace is from Kosh and I’ve been wearing it a lot lately with different looks, I might have to buy more from that set one of these days. The bob from lamb. is still awesome and the rest is the default look like in the FlipSide’s picture.

It’s PG, honest! *coughs* All the bits that matter are covered and I just couldn’t ruin the perfection of these tattoos with clothes. Fallen Gods Inc has always created breathtaking things, but these tattoos were a must-have. And since I generally tend to be in a drow or other dark fantasy skin when wearing this much of tattoos, I bought them in white. Drow ears with jewelry are from Illusions, the hair is from Exxess Designs, eyes from Absentia and the drow skin is from Realms of Aledar newbie packet. The picture is taken in the Voodoo Child skybox from Not Too Shabby and it’s one of my all-time favorite skyboxes for taking screenies in.

So, what did I pick as the rewards for my shopping spree? Here, I managed to put two of the prizes in one picture and yes, it’s still somewhere within the realm of strategically covered… but like above, this skin will not tolerate clothes to ruin the perfection!

The skin is the prize by Fallen Gods Inc and it is absolutely ridiculously gorgeous. The tone is slightly too approaching pink tones for me, but when I put the demo on I just knew I had to have it, regardless. So I did, right after I picked my jaw from the floor. The horns from Trap were another such prize… the textures were simply whimper-worthy. Combine the two and you have a lazy snake sunning in our garden~ Eyes are from Gothic Dreams and the hair from BeReal. The log is from iTuTu. ^_^

Yes, you can look again, I put clothes back on. *grins* Although I blog it last, this prize is what I picked first. I mean… seriously, Silent Sparrow making a steampunk dress? Gimme! I’m not that big a fan of brown usually, but for steampunk I make an exception and wander into the brown-brass areas, and these browns are simply -delicious- in tone. The picture is taken in a steampunk cottage from Builders Brewery. It was a Steam Hunt prize, as were also the hat from Illusions and the clockwork squirrel from Myrtil’s Mess. The armchair is from Ambiance, a part of the ongoing Second Style promotion. Hair from Vixen, choker from CatniP. Usual Djinn & Tonic skin and EarthStones eyes combo as the base.

All I need to do now is resist the temptation to buy something else to get more of the Wild exclusive prizes… <.<

RFyre~

One of the best shops for us gothically inclined on the whole grid is RFyre. They have just recently added a lucky chair near their special savings sections and the first dress to go in it is Twisted Swiss! Since I already have it, I didn’t have to move to live next to that chair — yet. Keep an eye on that chair, seriously. <.<

Another thing about RFyre that way too few people know is that they offer freebies. A packet of two tops, a jacket and three pants free to pick up on the wall! Here’s one of the tops and pants, modeled with a new hair-do from Exxess Designs — yes, I’m an addict. This particular one was a free gift in the group notices, so port in and join the group to get it! Hurry~

And last I have to flail about their latest release, Mercy. It’s a huge compilation of mix-and-match items in black and red and textures to die for. All sold separately, in combos or in a huge fatpack.  There’s the classic poodle skirt option, but they’re also trying out a new flexi shape, which is interesting to say the least. Sonya squirms so much while standing still that it sometimes turns to almost silks-like, but I love it anyways~

…but it’s still November…

I know, I know, but half the shops on the grid are already pushing out freebie xmas outfits like their life depended on it. I have a bunch and I’m not even going to bother you with all of them, but so far there’s two I must draw your attention to… although one of them isn’t even a freebie. ^^

This one is a freebie from Exxess, complete with boots and earmuffs. I think it was a dollarbie, but hey same difference, really. Check out the heels. Seriously. @.@ Oh, the bauble choker and earrings are from another set, aka…

But I have been a good girl... or at least nice. <.<

…from Crimson Shadow, one of my favorite shops on the grid. Some of my alltime favorites come from their lucky chair. *coughs* The following Christmas outfit was only 50 lindens. It also came with that bauble choker and earrings above, but for some idiotic reason the hat and one of the earrings use the same slot, and the choker and the teddy-lace use the same slot. Of course you can fiddle with it and re-attach, but you’ve been warned. Shoes, stockings, teddy and the hat included. And the jewelry.

"Dear Santa, for Christmas I'd like..."

And since I’m talking of Crimson Shadow, remember to stalk their lucky chair to grab their latest one, Victoria. The wings and the tipped halo are so not included. ^^;;

And this is HOW nice I've been!
