The Phoenix Fae

March 18, 2025

A peek into the deep woods, where strange things grow and all manner of curious creatures make their home. Lithe and beautiful, appearing as if garbed in living flame, the phoenix fae is elusive and mischievous. You may be tempted to follow her deeper into the woods, but proceed with caution. Not all is as it seems, and most certainly do not eat the glowing mushrooms.

The Phoenix Corset is a cool design by Starlight Designs, featuring animated flames that seem to envelop your body. Looks particularly fabulous in the dark! And that is of course also true for the Faelight Fungi by Birth, a set which includes different mushroom clusters, some strange glowing flowers and one huge mushroom with little frogs on. It really does look like bioluminiscence. You’ll find the corset and the mushrooms at the current round of We Love Role-Play.

Also from We Love Role-Play is the latest ear release from Illusions, the Elfin Ears, long and slender and very fae. My skin is one of the new tones for alaskametro’s Esme skin, released at the Skin Fair, and I am using it with the 2025 body update.

Dancing Djinn

February 18, 2025

It is dangerous to venture into the desert at sunset. Deep within the djinn reside and the unwary traveller may fall under their spell, as they can assume forms that are very fair to look upon.

Siyu Suen of Illusions is a new (and very welcome!) addition to the We Love Role-Play designer lineup. Her first release for the event is a set of Drow ears in the series that already includes Sprite and Sylph ears. I meant to wear the Drow ones, but after trying my way through the different sets, I ended up doing the photos with the Sprite ears instead. Yes, I can be a little ditzy at times. The Drow ear is a much longer ear, tapering to an elegant point, and it is available at WLRP at 20% off and in regular and two gauged versions.

The Ariadne outfit by Aurora seemed like it would suit a djinn very well, with its silk drapery, precious metals and jewels as well as a distinct “Harem” aesthetic.

Fantasy Faire 2020 - A Secret Rendezvous

April 25, 2020

Somewhere deep in the woods stands a tall tower, where a man wearing a mask has arranged for a secret meeting with a lady. Who is the man who will not reveal his face? And why has the lady agreed to meet with him in such a secluded location? Is there a scandal in the making, perhaps? Or does he know some dark secret that he is using to blackmail her with?

Farewell to the Faire

May 06, 2019

The Fantasy Faire has ended and the Fairelands faded away once again. I made my last visit to the Fairelands Junction yesterday and took these these moody, melancholy photos in an outfit that combines items from Illusions, Bliensen + MaiTai and Faida. The Junction, of course, was as always built by Saiyge Lotus of Balderdash and the gondola is also one of her creations.
