Tracing the Threads of History and Fantasy

Decadent Heritage

November 25, 2025

Some scenes don’t need much setup—just the right furniture and the right mood. DICTATORSHOP’s Bondage Cross from the Heritage series became the centerpiece for this one, its polished wood, padded support, and smooth restraint system working beautifully for both close interaction and full-scene shots. The cross includes solo poses for male and female avatars as well as a maledom and a femdom menu for two avatars at the same time. In addition, the cross is Jolt-enabled so that when the submissive is using the solo menu, he or she will react to being hit by the Jolt-enabled whips from DICTATORSHOP.

To balance the severity of the cross, I used Libertine’s decadent divan the Swan, available at the current round of We Love Role-Pay for a few more days. Its carved frame and deep upholstery create a perfect visual contrast—comfort observing tension.

For my look, Petrichor & ERSCH’s Valeneros outfit provided a gothic feel and paired welll with Petrichor’s Kessa Heels. Stealthic’s Faith hair added a soft, romantic touch as another contrast.

Ran, in the role of the (un)lucky captive, is wearing no.match No Sweat hair and Contraption’s Cyclist’s Breeches.

Lady of the Autumn Keep

November 07, 2025

She stands by the window as the day wanes, the forests below her turning to flame beneath the fading sun. Beyond the mountains, the chill of winter gathers, but for now, her hall is warm with light and memory.

The the new Gable Hood from Grasshopper Street, debuting at the November round of We Love Role-Play, is an n exquisite piece that brings historical depth to fantasy styling, with embroidered detailing and metallic trims that frame the face gracefully. It’s also a rare find: a headpiece that complements both historical gowns and creative fantasy attire with equal ease.

The Madelyn Gown by Rakshasa features elegant brocade textures, a shaped bodice, and flowing skirts that capture a sense of quiet nobility. The combination of deep green and gold feels regal, particularly under warm indoor lighting like this, and it looks beautiful together with the hood.

For the setting, I used Moon Coven’s Medieval Small Palace, also available at We Love Role-Play for this round. Its tall windows and richly textured interiors make it an ideal backdrop for portraits, evoking the mood of a secluded noble residence.

On Odin’s Bed

October 22, 2025

A cold on top of my broken finger did not improve my creativity, but now that I am on the mend from one thing at least I dove back into We Love Role-Play to show my favourite decor item for this round, the Hvild bed from Libertine. This Norse-inspired bed (its even called “Odin’s bed”)  features carved wood (three design options are included for the head board) and furs for a very rustic look. It is called a beta release and will come with further texture options in the future through free updates. It is available in an adult and a mature version, with a good selection of single and couple animations. You can grab it at 30% off at the event.

For these photos, I wanted some very particular poses, so I did not use the built-in options. The body chains are from Starlight Design and in the first image they enhance the impression of submission. And yet, you can see a hint of the dagger from Kore that is held behind her back, which is then fully on display in the second image.  Chained, but not tamed and definitely still dangerous.

The torches are from a great set of light sources by Tirrany Designs and they provided lovely illumination for the scene. Finally, though not from WLRP, we have the Bora Nera hair from Wasabi. A very sleek style with attitude, with its hint of devil horns in the bangs.

Visions of Egypt

May 26, 2025

A short and sweet one for today. Grasshopper Street’s release for We Love Role-Play in May is the beautiful Nefertiti Crown and their gift for this Birthday Round is a matching handheld mirror with Egyptian decorations. I found an Egyptian-inspired outfit—rather loosely inspired, admittedly—from Aurora for a previous WLRP round and wandered off to my little oasis to setup an evening scene with decor from Lore and Libertine.
