Fae Fest dance event was held at the Kingdom of Erebos yesterday. Humans, elves, vampires and drow were all represented. They put aside their differences for a short time to join in dance inside the enchanted faerie circle. For more pictures follow this link.
Hawk, Tina, Tori, Red, Emy, Casandra.
Emy sprinkled faerie dust over those who could not fly to aid in soaring dances.

Long time friend of ours, Red dons wings to join in the fun!
Myself and Emy dancing triumphantly after Hawk's departure from a scene where the faerie circle protected us from any foul intent he might have.
Please do join us at this same faerie circle tomorrow, Sunday, for dancing led by Emy at 11am SLT.
I finally put up pictures of the Christmas Ball held in Kingdom on the Chronicles of Erebos blog. My friend and outstanding choreographer, Emy lead the couple dances for the event.
I think I am behind in everything I need or want to do in both worlds. My goal this year to to get myself organized and manage time more effectively.
Essie invited me to post on the Chonicles of Erebos blog. So when I post there, I will note it here for anyone who is interested. I will still post role play here also. Sometimes the same event with a different slant.

Dance is my first love in SL. Dance and Friends are why I was still hanging around by the time I slipped into Role Play. I am often somewhere wearing the leather thin on the bottom of my dance shoes.
Emy is a good friend in RL and my best friend in SL. She is the only person I have introduced to SL. We are there for each other. A very talented choreographer for singles and couples dance events with an RL dance background. In my role as Queen of the Fae for the Kingdom of House Erebos, she holds the position of Court Choreographer. She really is my Lady-in-Waiting. She makes my life easier in many ways and has my best interests at heart. My SL would be much lonelier without her.
Tulsa I happened to meet at a Funky Feats dance. He has become a friend, Emy's little brother and a talented DJ. Above are before and after make-over pics. He had been in SL for two years when I gave him good pair of black shoes from Shiny Things for a Christmas gift earlier this year. The world should watch out! What this man can accomplish when he gets motivated is amazing! Extremely sauve and attractive...be still my heart! *smiles* Click on picture for a better view of his new look on the opening night of his weekly Party Funk gig at Linri's Palace.
Emy drug me to a Funky Feats dance well over two years ago and I am sooo glad she did! This choreographed dance group became my first home base in SL. A welcoming group that loves music, and loves to dance. They are an important part of my SL. LuLu, Hevy and myself amid a good turnout of Funkies surrounding us.
Hevy is the mainstay and heart of the Funky Feats. He was one of the original Funkies and kept the group going after the others lost interest. He is a gentle and considerate man, who is delighted to see each group member TP in to join a dance. I always thought a chorus line would have camaraderie and be fun and I was right! SL blissfully takes the long hours of rehearsal away.
However long hours are spent prior to choreographed events by the dance leaders in searching for new dances that fit different music styles, organizing them, and warming them up prior to the event.
Xavia is a bright spot in my day! She is enthusiastic and bubbly. I met her through Starting Point newcomers housing run and sponsored by my friend Tym and her husband Jerremy, two wonderful people. I invited her to a Funky Feats dance one evening when she was bored. She was immediately hooked on music and dancing in SL. She is a host for Bailers and is now DJ'ing for them on Friday nights. She is occasionally fae, hence this choice of pictures.
LuLu (gray globe over head) was the driving force that kept the Funkies going while Hevy was away from second life. It takes a lot of keyboard dancing to choreograph a two hour event and she lead dance after dance, undoubtedly wearing her dancing toes and fingers into numbness.
The way my blog operates, I can only upload five pictures. There are music friends that are not shown here that I also enjoy.
This week's Happy Thursday post (late as usual) is about role play friends. I was a human for over a year before I donned wings and became a fae in my first Role Play medieval/fantasy kingdom. It was a happy accident told here.
These pictures are all from the kingdom of House Erebos. A huge thank you to Essie for discovering it and major kudos to Saia and 2ks for welcoming refugees from Aglarond with open arms! Here are the chronicles for Erebos.
All of my role play friends are important to me, they care about each other, their varied personalities round out the experience. I am really a theatre techie type - one of my majors in college was Theatrical Costuming. I have been told I'm good at role play, but I am not really comfortable with it.
However, I have friends who are awesome at role play!
Galina was accused of poisoning Mandelynn. Her trial revealed that she was threatened...
With the drow Hawk quelled for the moment, we enjoy a relaxing evening in the village.
Emy, Linwe as a friendly wolf, and myself on one of Emy's favorite sitting spots.
I still am human much of the time. Each is a nice break for the other. Some of us use role play as a get away from being human and others switch from one role play persona to another, sometimes shedding skin for scales or fur to relax.
It's funny but even if I don't have a great deal of interaction with someone, if we talk personally every once in a while, I develop a fondness and care about them. I miss Joyful... she is a warm and wonderful person.
I did not realize that a dragon looks like a huge bunch of gray balloons as it rezzes. This was taken after they became less all encompassing and you could tell it was going to be an animal.
He appears to be a medium-sized dragon, but still I'm amazed he can fit in a house! The black looks velvety to the touch.
This picture is the first time he TP'ed into the central HUB at Erebos in dragon form. Two of my friends hurried over. Galina remarked it was the first time she seen a teal dragon.
Isn't he the cutest thing? He looks like a giant winged puppy wanting to be petted or waiting to be walked (admittedly I am prejudiced).
Trying to stand still while he takes a picture. My stance reminds me of having my picture taken in my new dress when I was in grade school. I hope his turned out better than mine.
