Otherworldly

The Loneliest Inn

The inn was situated far out on a remote peninsula, with vast woods to travel through before one reached it. However, it was said to serve the best ale in the kingdom to the lonely travellers who would make their way there. How and why that had come to be, no one knew for sure.

Well, I needed some little explanation for why the tavern by NeonSheep—one of several related releases for the November round of We Love Role-Play—seems to be situated out in the middle of nowhere. ;) The tavern building comes in three different versions, with different layouts, and the other releases from NeonSheep provide furnishings and food props such as the oven, the various chairs and the barrels, mugs and plates of food. There are many, many more furnishings and props that I am showing here.

My lonely traveller is wearing two other WLRP releases. First, the Herleif outfit from Rakshasa, consisting of tunic, belt and breeches. As always very customisable in the fatpack, with tons of texture options. Over this outfit he is wearing the Noa cape from Stitched, which comes in two sizes for each body so it can be worn over clothing or over nothing but the body. I love how well these two items went together.

Oh, and look at the Chesnut hair from the Truth Collective, it works on a male avatar too.

Harvest Bounty

Celebrate the bounty of the harvest with the beautiful Vangsta table from NeonSheep, available both with and without the decor (the decor also included separately) and with and without PBR. It has a rustic elegance which works both for a more modern setting and for a role-play setting. Here I have also added apples in baskets and sacks from Lore’s Apple Harvest fatpack. I am also using the holdable basket and the holdable apple. Don’t they look delicious? Each item comes in four different apple textures to represent different apple varieties. Both of these great autumn decor sets are available at We Love Role-Play for a discount and you still have a few more days to get them before this round closes.

My outfit is also from We Love Role-Play, a very pretty Norse-inspired gown by Rakshasa with a coat that has a knitted look belted over it. The gown and the coat can be worn separately and there are also bracers included for wearing over the sleeves. As usual the fatpack offers excellent customisation options where you can mix and match all the available colours. And with it I am wearing the final piece from the event, the Yrsa necklace from lassitude & ennui, with runes inscribed on the central spiral piece. It comes in three colour variants, each of which also includes a blood-streaked version.

Princess in the Tower

The current round of We Love Role-Play is almost over, but you have until the end of the 28th to take a look! For my final post for the September round I picked out the Cecil gown from Lorien, which makes really great use of PBR for the dress texture and to bring out the embroideries on the dress. Sometimes it gets too shiny, but this one really sells a fabric texture with a more metallic decoration. I paired it with the tiara from NeonSheep which has a classic medieval look and which also is available at WLRP.

From the Engine Room comes the final new release, the cool Four of Swords hair style from Magika. I turned off the optional bangs and matched the colour of the swords to the tiara and the gold of the dress, but there are more metal options included on the HUD. And, of course, the HUD is a fatpack of hair colours for just L$ 450, quite the steal.

Kitchen Helpers

We Love Role-Play meets the Dog & Pony Showin today’s post, featuring poses from Aelithe, a lovely new dress from Rakshasa (with bonus vegetable basket from Neon Sheep), a kitchen work table from RiG! and some hopeful dogs from Teegle: the original size of the mutt (now a limited edition), the resized mutt and of course the adorable puppy. Also new is the hairstyle, a Truth Collective release from Truth and Wasabi. I love those two thick braids! It also comes with an optional hat decorated with an Ankh, quite suitable for Halloween, but here I am wearing the headscarf included with the dress.

Our own RL dogs, a pair of boxers, would definitely agree with this bunch that the kitchen is the best place in the house, even if the bed (not their bed) comes a close second. I think that their ideal would be a bed IN the kitchen. ;)

Taking Liberties

I love the new dress from Tres for We Love Role-Play. Nephi is a scripted gown available for Inithium Khara, Legacy and Maitreya Lara that offers various states of undress through a Touch-menu. My favourite is this version, with the bodice pulled down to reveal one breast. However, the top only and bottom only versions have an added benefit—you can wear two dresses and get the top and bottom in different colours! I am wearing the Khara size and don’t forget that We Love Role-Play has a raffle for 5 Khara bodies that you can join by wearing the group tag and clicking one of the raffle boards at the event.

Also from We Love Role-Play is the Helvi forehead chain by NeonSheep, a very delicate and pretty piece of jewellery that I have included a close-up of below. It comes with a HUD for texture changes.

Even Ran picked up some new clothing from We Love Role-Play, after I pointed him to the Colorblock Doublet from Stitched. For male RP clothing, Stitched is definitely one of the best sources and this is a really nicely made doublet. I just wish someone was making this kind of clothing in female fits too. ;)

And though you don’t see too much of it, the interior is from Tirrany Designs Stylized Medieval Tavern. I really like the look of this build, but it is quite large and a little difficult for me to get good use of given my attempts at more realistic avatar sizes.
