Against All Odds

Posted on by cejalaval

http://Against All Odds

I am a defender.  Others may like to hunt or to be the aggressor; I’m a more peaceful, nature-loving tree hugger type of fae.  But threaten my people or my way of life or the hidden wonders of the forest, and I’m there.  Being on the slighter side and very attuned to my surroundings, I tend to be relegated to either the outer or inner edges, acting as scout or one of the last lines of defense.  But just because I’m not huge and solid like the male warriors of my tribe, it doesn’t mean that I take my job as protector any less seriously or that I’m not willing to lay my life on the line for what I love…  I have trained and trained, to the point where my skills now equal those of any warrior, even if my size and strength do not.  I have learned how not to just compensate for what many see as shortcomings but to use them to a winning advantage against my foes…  And it looks like it might be the day when they are once again put to the test.  My inner warrior is ready and we will face whatever challenge awaits that threatens the inner circle!!!  This is how legends are born… when one small soul takes a stand against all odds to defend all that they love…

  • Outfit:  Jangka Design – Shenarah.  Another amazing role-playing outfit!!!  100% original mesh, & sized only for Maitreya, the Shenarah top comes in 6 individual colors or as a fatpack, everything else (the pants, boots, armbands, armor, & headdress) come in 2 colors or fatpacks.  I LOVE the gleam of the armor & the headdress, adds that special touch of realism to kick an already fantastic fantasy outfit up to a whole new level!  Brand-new, she is EXCLUSIVELY at Enchantment Twisted Fairytales, open August 13th – Sept 3rd, for 25% OFF.  Demo available. 
  • Skin:  Petrichor – Vareni Muted.  Highly detailed, gorgeous muted tone skins in your choice of 15 colors (see below for these awesome textures; I’m wearing Filaurian… in an earlier post HERE, I wore Mylaela).  Both male & female versions feature all new shading & details, in BOM/default layers only plus EvoX.  Includes Vareni ears (which I’m NOT wearing), new brows in 10 colors for both classic & EvoX (which I’m wearing in Obsidian), & several other options to help customize your look.  A definite “must check out”!

Fae at Orb Practice

Posted on by cejalaval

http://Fae at Orb Practice

I’ve been such a busy fae!  For some reason, I got the urge to redo my land, so I’ve been digging through storage, unearthing lost treasures, tossing out other items that no longer capture my imagination, and just taking a fresh look at everything around me.  I’m considering some extensive renovation, lowering a large section of my mountain, but that definitely requires more thought than the quick impulse that had me about to start demolition, because once started, there’s no going back!!!! (Why isn’t there an UNDO button when it comes to editing the land????)  Just as well though… I needed more practice working with my orb so that I know how to harness its power when needed.  And then of course I’m off to all  the new and soon-ending events, because what fae ever has enough???

  • Outfit:  Petrichor – Gaelinne.  Another gorgeous fantasy look by the amazing design team of Petrichor & Ersch!  Gaelinne is the epitome of a flowy elven goddess, with sensational adornments included.  Available in 10 single colors, 5 full color packs (Shine, Floredge, Fades, Fabrics, & Worn), or a megapack of all these fabulous choices.  Each HUD allows you to pick a color for each element (the top & vest, long skirt, waist wrap, ribbon sleeves), & the adornments have their own HUD with a ton of choices for each individual adornment; additionally, all parts are show/hideable.  See below for a closeup of the fabulous detail & textures. Sized for Legacy + Perky, Lara + Petite,  Reborn + Mounds, & Kupra, Gaelinne is part of the 7th Birthday Sale for The Epiphany Event, which runs through August 12th.  Sadly this is the last Epiphany, & with this final round, all items are only at their mainstore locations.  Demo available.

Fae, Interrupted

Posted on by cejalaval

http://Fae, Interrupted

A bit deep in thought these days; not sure why, but just not feeling particularly social.  I’m enjoying my time just wandering through somewhat wild places I’ve never seen (this sim is just awesome for that!), tweaking my home to capture more of that wild & colorful essence, and communing with nature and its denizens.  A little private time seems to be just what this fae needs, and she is definitely making the most of it! (Of course, that does NOT impact my shopping… that would be downright sacrilegious lol!!!)…  looks up startled at a sound entering the glade, before settling back to my ruminating on the beauty of the play of light on the water…

  • Outfit:  Poet’s Heart – Solar Panties & Pasties.  Definitely a LOT more revealing than my normal wear, but how could I resist? She is sized only for Maitreya, although an unrigged version of the pasties are also included  (NOTE: she fit my Legacy body with just the lower deformer).  Solar’s HUD offers an incredible range of individual choices in light, mid, & deep tones for fabric 1 (the panties), fabric 2 (the drape), metal 1 (the pasties), metal 2 (the hips), & the pastie gems. Demo available.  There is matching jewelry (necklace & headpiece, not shown) which is sold separately.
  • Skin:  Petrichor – Vareni Muted.  Highly detailed, gorgeous muted tone skins in your choice of 15 colors (see below for these awesome textures; I’m wearing Mylaela).  Both male & female versions feature all new shading & details, in BOM/default layers only plus EvoX.  Includes Vareni ears, & new brows in 10 colors for both classic & EvoX.  Demo available.

My Bow is Yours to Command

Posted on by cejalaval

http://My Bow is Yours to Command

Aaargh, I’ve been so happy exploring this fairy realm (as well as the weekend sales, to be totally honest) that I missed my cut-off for posting today.  I’ve decided that my cut-off time is completely arbitrary, together with the fact that another week of not-very-pleasant medical activities is upcoming for my human, pushed me into taking the daring step of ignoring my own rules.  Besides, I so love this look that I can’t wait to share it! Considering how peace-loving I am, it always surprises me that the warrior-scout mode holds such appeal for me… perhaps it’s that I feel more of a purpose, more of a specified role as it were… and what could possibly be more important to a role-player than having that?!?  But missing that deadline has pushed my time inworld to a much narrower band for the day, and I must be off to put my bow to good use…  Remember: magic is believing in yourself; if you do that, you can make anything happen!!!!!

  • Outfit:  Jangka – Kinta.  Jangka outfits are always so recognizable, the style & detail & quality of textures just stand out in the world of SL roleplay.  In this outfit, I just love what to me are the American Indian touches (feathers & fringe!!!!).  100% original mesh, & sized only for Maitreya, Kinta comes in 6 individual colors or as a fatpack, as do the boots & armbands (the latter not worn in the primary pic); the pants are available in your choice of black or brown; the necklace is single version only.  With all these options, Kinta can be customized for a variety of looks, & the look is simply amazing & just feels so authentic. Brand-new, she is EXCLUSIVELY at the July round of We Love Roleplay for 25% OFF, ending July 30th. Demo available. 
  • Horns:  Petrichor – Vinisa Horns.  Another set of completely awesome horns from Petrichor! These are soooo very different, with a completely different look from any I’ve ever worn or even seen!  The angle itself sets these off… they come forward at a slight angle, & then curve gently up & in.  As always there’s a ton of customization built in, from the style of metal embellishments to the optional gems & the chains, all of which have a wide selection of texture.  There are 4 wear styles (Bare, Solid, Multi, & Gems), & 4 color packs (Colors, Faded, Gloss, & Metalline) or a Fatpack of all.  Includes earrings & necklaces (I’m wearing the earrings), & is HUD controlled for the metals, gems, & horns themselves.  Demo available.  (See the closeup below)

http://Fae in the Forest Primeval

Sometimes I have so much to say here on these pages… other times (like this), not so much.  I am currently reigning as temporary goddess of this part of the forest, and am spending a great deal of my time in quiet contemplation of all its hidden beauty, doing what I can for its more defenseless inhabitants.  There’s just so much going on, with so much shopping (well worth it in my case, I ADORE this look!!!!), but it’s important to take this time to refresh and recharge…  smiles softly as a young fawn approaches me for the first time…  summer is such a fabulous time to enjoy all the blessings of nature!

  • Outfit:  Petrichor – Eres Dress & Harness.  Another stunning fantasy brought to life by the amazing design team of Petrichor & Ersch, Eres is flowy & silky, & incredibly customizable.  Choose from 7 color palettes or go for the fatpack, each HUD allows you to pick a color for each element (the top, shorts, long skirt, waist sash, arm ribbons, front sashes, side sashes, straps & studs); additionally, all parts are show/hideable. Sized for Legacy, eBody, Kupra, & Maitreya, Eres is available only at the mainstore.
  •  Horns:  Petrichor – Stranded Swyrl Horns.  100% custom design, these horns are unisex, moddable, customizable & resizable.

Fae at Doriath

http://Fae at Doriath

I feel so bad for my poor human counterpart.  Real life has been quite stressful the last several days, trying to get things in order for a huge overseas trip that begins at the end of this week, with seemingly simple tasks morphing into monumental headaches.  I had to literally beg for a few hours of time to explore more of the exceptionally creative Fantasy Faire — open only until May 8th!!!! — and to create this third look.  Sometimes it’s amazing what you can do under pressure (then again, other times you get crushed lol).  But I don’t have a single moment to waste… I hope to get at least one more fantastic trip through the faire before going to sleep for most of the month…  But oh, the wonders I’ve seen!!!!  Don’t take my word, go see them yourself, now before time runs out and the portals close for another year!!!!

  • Outfit:  Jangka – Aeldyn.  I love all my Jangka outfits, the detail & the visualization are just amazing.  It’s rare though that they do airy fae style, like in this outfit that I just had to have the moment I saw it!  It’s flowery & drapey (is that a word?) & colorful & with all that minute attention to detail that makes an outfit feel truly real.  Aeldyn is available as 4 colors (one for each season; I’m wearing Winter).  You can purchase each piece separately (the top, the skirt, ankle ornaments, wrist ornaments, leg ornaments, arm ornaments, wings) or as a fatpack.  Sized only for Maitreya (but fitting my Legacy with only the smallest of changes to my shape), she is  BRAND NEW & EXCLUSIVE at the Fantasy Faire in the Faireland of Aarkenfen.  You can TP direct to their location HERE.  The wings (which are static) can also be purchased separately individually or as a fatpack of 7 colors.
  • Horns:  Petrichor – Sylaine Horns, worn in Brass.  NEW!   100% custom mesh & textures, materials enabled, these unique swirled horns combine a glass base with various metals.  Resizable, unisex, & mod/copy, they are truly amazing looking!  Available in 8 texture packs with HUDs or as a fatpack, you can TP direct to their location in the Carnelian Archive (which they’ve sponsored!!!) HERE.  See the ad below for details.
  • Tattoo:   Aerth – Moon Tears Body Tattoo, worn in Ocean.  Stunning stunning stunning full body & head tattoo, & with 3 levels of transparency (50%, 75%, or 100%) this tattoo is as subtle or dramatic as you choose. (FYI I’m using the 50% level.)  Includes versions for EVOX & SLUV.  The fatpack has 16 awesome colors & is priced 15% off ONLY at the Fantasy Faire in the Faireland of Athenium (four color packs of two tones each are also available); TP direct to their location HERE.  Demo available.

http://Fae's First Look at Fantasy Faire Part A

http://The Clouded Mountains at Fantasy Faire

“The Fairelands have returned from the Mists; twenty fantasy worlds forming a circle of lands, a chain of people across the many realms. Welcome home, Fairelanders!”

I can’t tell you how my heart soared when I read these words on the Fantasy Faire 2022 website!  As a fae, this is the most absolute best event of the year.  So many designers, so much creativity, the sheer breadth of what these artistic souls create first in their imagination and then in all its virtual glory, it’s staggering.  As an official blogger (yay!!!!) I started seeing a few items this past week; we had early access in the fairelands ONE day early… I spent my entire time just visiting every one of the 20, yes 20!!!!,  Fairelands… it seems like each one elicited a heartfelt “wow, this is my favorite”.  A taste of 20 different worlds, staggeringly different…  To me, there’s nothing like creating a character or scene with just a few of the amazing things items available at the Faire… and to think that as a Relay for Life (RFL) event, the whole impetus behind it is to help bring another fantasy world into being, a world free of cancer.  I am so thrilled, so honored, so humbled, so proud, to be even the teeniest part of this fabulous event.  The Faire just opened April 21st and the portals remain open through May 8th…

To quote from the website, “The Faire has long been considered the premier annual shopping event for fantasy-themed merchandise in Second Life, showcasing fantasy avatars, clothing, furnishings, gadgets, and exclusive items by 250 of the grid’s top fantasy creators. In addition, Faire visitors enjoy dance and theater performances; attend auctions, art galleries, and a Literary and Film Festival; and share in an interactive quest and roleplaying events and classes.”   For anyone who spends time in this virtual environment of ours, whether you play as fantasy or “reality” it doesn’t matter, seeing the imaginations at work here is an absolute must… I’ll see you there, but I can’t say if you’ll recognize me!!!!  And I’m off, back to the Faire!!!!

  • Outfit:  Petrichor – Togruah.  NEW! at Fantasy Faire, Togruah is a leather huntress outfit designed with dark, rich silks & embossing.  All parts (the vest, bodysuit w/belts, arms, legs, & boots) have individual HUDS with seemingly a zillion choices for each detail & are show/hide.  Sized for Legacy, Lara, Jupra, Freya, & Ebody, Togruah can be purchased as a full set or as individual pieces (top & collar; sleeves; skirt & panty), EXCLUSIVELY at Fantasy Faire open April 21st through May 8th.  Demo available. TP direct to their location in the Carnelian Archive (which they’ve sponsored!!!) HERE.
  • Accessories:  Poet’s Heart – Lunar Staff & Jewelry.  The staff includes a version with a hold animation, another for the back, & one “as is”.  The jewelry set includes earrings, crown, halo, necklace (not shown), & armbands (not shown).  There are two different versions of both the staff & the jewelry, with different HUDs to change all the elements (one of each is an RFL edition; see the ads below).  The version of the staff I’m holding is an incredible Quest Hunt Gift.  EXCLUSIVELY at Fantasy Faire open April 21st through May 8th.  TP direct to their location in Mythspire Ridge HERE.
  • Skin:  Soul – Lianna – Dantela.  Stunning skin with darker shading on the head (including the forehead & by the eyes), the shoulders, down the sides of the neck, as well as the outer arms & legs.  Full skin set & tattoos includes BOM versions for EvoX & classic heads with Legacy, Belleza, Chai, Maitreya, Slink & Universal body skin as well as several ear versions + brow/no brow, muscled/toned, & more.  The pink version I’m wearing is the RFL EXCLUSIVE at Fantasy Faire,  open April 21st through May 8th (there’s a male version for the guys as well).  Other skin tones for both male & female available at 25% OFF.   TP direct to their location in Atheneum HERE.  Demo available.

Fae with Blue-Eyed Wonder

Posted on by cejalaval

http://Fae with Blue-eyed Wonder

As the real world out there grows in strife and the miasma of war, my world of fantasy is becoming even more precious.  It’s a haven to at least temporarily put those real life worries on the back shelf and distract myself with hugely important virtual decisions that really matter only to ME.  One of those critical choices is SKIN.  IRL you can only do much about the skin you’re in…  but here on the grid, there are so many choices, so many ways to be.  The Skin Fair is on, and that’s where many designers gather to show their latest.  Two sims full (and I DO mean full!!!), it can be overwhelming, to the point where (a) you give up and leave or (b) you only “hit” the huge brand names.  Both would be a shame, because this fair is an unparalleled opportunity to sample skins from the relatively smaller and/or newer skin designers to create that look which is truly your own.  For MY fae look, I LOVE Loa (which is why I became one of their bloggers!!!)… their skins just make my wings beat a bit faster.  Maybe they’ll do the same for you! Sprinkles a little fairy dust to help smooth your journey to the fair…

  • Skin:  Loa – Vega.  Just one of three BRAND NEW Loa skins for SKIN FAIR!!!  And all three are only for Lelutka EVO X heads.   You can see them all below; each is available in 7 skin tones, with each skin tone pack including 4 versions of the skin (regular, no brow, freckled, & no brow freckled), HD ears, cheek/eye/nose blushes (all of which are tintable!), shape + browfixer.  I’m wearing the no-brow version of Vega in the Tan tone with both the cheek & eye blushes (I tinted the eye blush just a wee bit blue), together with the matching body skin (body skins include 4 “textures” — shine, soft, matte, flat chest plus no nipple & stretch mark add-ons — & are available for Legacy, Belleza, Maitreya, Reborn & Inithium bodies).  Note that the provided shape for Vega is for the Avalon head, I’m using my own shape & a different Loa browfixer since Gaia is MY head, but you can see how Vega looks on Avalon in the pic below.   Demos available for all three skins so you can see for yourself on whatever EvoX head you have.  EXCLUSIVELY available at the Skin Fair, March 11th – 28th.  
  • Horns:  Petrichor – Farys Horns.  These stunning horns can be worn bare as shown here or with a full set of add-ons; they also include optional forehead deco (worn), 3 types of earrings (to be worn together or separately), & necklaces (I’m wearing the shortest of the three). 100% custom mesh & textures, with everything HUD controlled. I couldn’t even count how many texture options there are!
  • Head & Ears:  LeLUTKA – Gaia Head (EvoX)
  • Body:  LEGACY – Mesh Body Special Edition, Feminine
  • Eyes:  OJAYO – Yoshi Eyes
  • Eyebrows:  Nuve – Nadia Tintable Eyebrows

Merusine of the Deep

http://Merusine of the Deep

I do love being a fae, with my horns and wings, but sometimes I love the challenge of transforming into some otherworldly creature.  It’s just so exciting  to become someone else, someone totally unique and different!  And let’s face it… isn’t that why we’re all here in Second Life to begin with?  Even fantasy folk enjoy that exploration into other parts of our imagination.  As a creature of air and land, this opportunity to become more one with the water world was one I just couldn’t resist (though I admittedly kept my wings lol).  There’s a whole event dedicated to this world of Atlantis… the creativity on display is simply astounding, whether you always role-play as a mer being or if you just want to dip your toes (or tail!) into the water, you really can’t go wrong with a trip under the sea!  Happy shopping!

  • Outfit:  Petrichor – Merusine.  Brand new, this pearl-entwined set is a combination of the artistic talents of Petrichor & Ersch, & that means one thing… both the detail & the creativity is simply magnificent; I can’t even describe the way the intricate lines on the fabric pick up some windlights (see the ads below).   100% custom rigged mesh, a HUD controls everything, from the fabric texture (40 choices!!) to the pearls (another 30 options!) to whether details are shown or hidden, so you can totally customize your look.  Sized for Legacy/Perky, Freya, Maitreya/Petite, & Reborn, Merusine can be purchased as a full set or as individual pieces (top & collar; sleeves; skirt & panty), EXCLUSIVELY at The Guild – Atlantis, open March 1st – 31st.  Demo available.
  • Fins:  Petrichor – Karkisse Fins.  Totally unique, these add on seamlessly to your ears & look like they really grew there!  Totally matches the look of Merusine!  100% custom mesh & textures, they are modify, resizable, & unisex with your choice of two HUD controls (fades or colors) offering 40 options for the membrane, 40 for the spines, 30 for the pearls, & 30 for the metals.  Materials enabled, there’s also transparency & glow control as well as a specular control add-on.  See the ad below for closeup. Amazing, truly amazing!!!  EXCLUSIVELY at The Guild – Atlantis, open March 1st – 31st.

A Flight of Fancy

Posted on by cejalaval

http://A Flight of Fancy

http://Fae in Portrait

I know, I know, I’m breaking one of the cardinal rules of this blog… I’m doing what we have dubbed “a double post,” or a single blog post that features two distinct photos.  They’re just both so necessary to the story… the romantic fantasy of this stunning gown combined with the dramatic fantasy of my face, a true flight of fancy demanding both the full shot AND the closeup. In this situation, you just can’t have one without the other.  So why choose? That’s the freedom of being a fae and, let’s face it, of having your own blog lol! You not only get to make the rules, you also get to break them whenever you see fit!  Let’s see where else my flight of fancy takes me… you just never know what wondrous finds await just beyond the horizon!!!! Sprinkles a little fairy dust for all, flutters my wings, and I’m off!

  • Gown:  Poet’s Heart – Shaza.   Shaza comes in four color packs or a fatpack of all 20 colors.  Each color pack has a HUD to customize the skirt (not just color, but gradient or solid!), top, & sash so you can change up the look as much as you’d like.  She is sized only for Maitreya & Hourglass, though since she comes with an alpha I have to say that she fits Legacy perfectly on me (with no deformers); in fact a small detail that I love is that Poet’s Heart always supplies TWO alphas, one with & one without feet, the latter being especially useful since fantasy footwear can be difficult to source.  Shaza was originally created for the Holiday Hunt during Christmas & New Year’s, but is now available at the main store for a regular price. Demo available. 
  • Tattoo:  Aerth – Seer Face + Neck Tattoos. NEW!  A set of absolutely fabulous face tattoos with matching neck fades.  BOM layers, for SLUV & EVOX, in a fatpack of 13 different colors (I’m wearing Klothein).  See both the closeup above & the ad below.  EXCLUSIVELY available at The Narrative Event, the fantasy event that opens today at noon on February 1st! Demo available.
  • Wings:  –FAS– Bento Faery Wings.  These have been my favorite wings for a little while now, & I’m just so excited to see that they are now featured at The Narrative Event, starting today February 1st!  They’re 100% mesh, bento rigged, materials enabled, with their own special AO.  If you take lots of photos like me, you’ll love the ability to pause that AO when the wings are in whatever position you prefer, rather than sitting there trying to catch the shot when just everything is exactly the way you want it. Includes a texture HUD with 24 options. Demo available.
  • Horns:  Petrichor – Uletia Horns.  Originally developed as a minigacha, these modifiable unisex horns are available with 15 different color HUDs, each of which offers 10 horn textures plus so many options I couldn’t even count them! The “blooms” can be visible or hidden, too! See the detail in the closeup above.
  • Head & Ears:  LeLUTKA – Gaia Head (EvoX)
  • Body:  LEGACY – Mesh Body Special Edition, Feminine
  • Skin:  Glam Affair – Snow Skin
