Tracing the Threads of History and Fantasy

Hymns for the Goddess

March 07, 2026

We Love Role-Play welcomes you to the March round, packed full of gorgeous gowns, props of all kinds, weapons, decor and fantastical skins and makeup, all new releases at a discount.

My first choice for blogging this time around was the Greco-Roman inspired gown by MirageDoll, paired with the beautiful lyre from the same brand. The dress has a soft drape and delicate metal detailing that immediately evokes classical sculpture and fantastical settings. The lyre adds a perfect finishing touch, transforming the look from simply elegant into something that feels almost divine.

To complement the theme, I added golden leg tattoos from Auro. They wind down the skin like mystical runes or ancient script, glowing subtly and reinforcing the sense of myth and ritual.

The beautiful little temple from Del-ka Aediles, dedicated to the goddess of youth, provided the perfect backdrop for this outfit. The temple itself is not part of the event, but it is drawn from the brand’s impressive collection of Roman temples and classical city structures, which make it easy to build convincing historical or mythological environments.

Speaking of a goddess, I also have to mention the gorgeous new Erin skin from alaskametro, which you can pick up at the Skin Fair which opened yesterday.

Errand Girl

July 07, 2024

Another round of We Love Role-Play awaits you and my first picks for showcasing from the July round is an expansive Roman merchant set from Del-ka Aedilis and a collar from Drunken Brokkr. The merchant set includes a variety of excellent decor pieces for furnishing a Roman (or Roman-inspired) shop—or a kitchen, for that matter—and the collar works as a slave collar for a variety of settings as it offers texture options for both the leather and metal. I decided to setup a scene of a wealthy household’s slave girl shopping for her mistress; already her basket is full of previous purchases. I took some liberties with her dress from Senzafine (available at Midsummer Enchantment, which closes today), it is rather too fancy and more Grecian-inspired than Roman, and her pretty leather shoes from lassitude & ennui aren’t precisely Roman either.

The Villa

December 16, 2019

I’ve actually never been to Italy, but I have had the opportunity to see Roman ruins at sites in the UK and, most recently, in Spain. The museum outside of Sevilla included a small reconstruction of a villa, showing the various rooms of the house. The Villa Iunia from Del-ka Aediles is a grander affair, but definitely has the right feel, with larger central areas and small rooms off to the sides of these. The choice of colour and pattern also fit known examples. I really appreciate the attention to the details that make it feel authentic. There is also a neat feature where you can turn on rain over the impluvium (the pool), really bringing the outdoors indoors. The villa is a brand new release and you can get it at 50% off at Redeux. But remember, each round of Redeux only lasts a week, so make sure you fit in a visit before you get too busy with the holidays!

When in Rome

October 18, 2019

Time flies and only a few days remain until this round of Redeux closes on the 21st of October. If you don’t visit before then, you’ll miss some great deals, including a L$50 special from each merchant. In this post, I am giving you a look at some discounted decor from Del-ka Aedilis plus a slip of a dress from Faida. It is not quite what a Roman kitchen slave would have worn, but we’ll call this one fantasy inspired by Rome. The Aisha dress includes sizes for Maitreya and Legacy and features nice use of materials to bring out the details in the Black Flower design.
