Fantasy Faire 2026: Piratical

May 04, 2026

Moonfleet Bay welcomes you to a rural landscape set next to a rugged shoreline, with smuggler’s caves and wrecked ships. What better place for a bold pirate, who has managed to win access to one of the cannons pointed out at the bay. There many other pirates have fallen victim to the defends of the bay, but she has cleverly made it to behind the defenses and is set for conquest.

Eudora3D’s Lyra outfit has a bit of a piratical feel in the cut of the blouse, though I am not sure the high heels on the boots are ideal when on a ship. They do look sexy, however, and sport a whole array of smaller knives tucked behind various straps. And the outfit paired very well with Uzme’s Dual Blade poses, which include the two cutlass-style swords. Uzme definitely makes some of the best roleplay poses out there and includes well-made props.

The Fantasy Faire is still going strong for a few more days, until May 10th, so make sure you don’t miss out!

Defender of the Hall

October 10, 2025

A week ago, I broke my ring finger on my right hand. I did not think I would be writing anything again for a month, since a full cast was the first prognosis. However, it turned out to need more complicated surgery which in the end meant I needed to be able to start training my finger right away. So, no cast, just a very sore and stiff finger. Writing is a bit of a pain, so I’ll probably keep things short and sweet for a while, but its much better than the alternative!

To get me rolling again, a Viking-inspired setup using the Jarnvidr Longhall from Del-ka Aedilis again, here with some furnishings from Angelicus. And I am wearing one of many excellent Viking/Norse-inspired outfits from Rakshasa. This one is called Vigdis and consists of a top and a skirt.

Renewing the Enchantment

September 17, 2025

For my second visit to Enchanted Realms, I donned the Thyra outfit from Urban Nobility and wore some magical Gaian eyes by Out of Orbit and a fanciful eyemakeup by Rubedo. The resulting look said sorceress to me, so I pulled out some poses from Uzme with magical effects and ventured into a mystical-looking glen to cast my spells.

Fantasy Faire 2025: The King’s Sword

April 21, 2025

A young maiden in disguise takes on a perilous quest, to deliver a king’s sword to its rightful owner. Her travels take her far from court and through many wondrous and sometimes dangerous realms, deep within the mystical Fairelands.

This absolutely gorgeous and well researched Renaissance-inspired outfit is a new release from Grasshopper Street for the Faire. The Prospero set is primarily intended for male avatars, covering a range of bodies, but there is also a Maitreya Flat version that works well for all Maitreya bodies as long as you wear the included alpha. It also works quite well on Legacy’s female bodies with a bit of additional alpha usage.  The HUD offers three different textiles, each with eight colour variations, and each section of the outfit can be coloured separately. Also available at the Faire are the velvet garters, these are sold separately for male and female bodies.

Uzme poses provides some of the best action-oriented pose sets around and for the Fantasy Faire they have out a set of single poses and two couple poses, all featuring swords. I had to tweak my arm a little for the first photo, as it sank into the clothing, but otherwise they fit me very well.
