Fantasy Faire 2017
This roleplay is the third in a series being produced by the NeoVictoria Roleplay Group for Fantary Faire and the fight against cancer. Read more about it at our page on the FF2017 site; here’s the link.
FantasyFaire2016 ended last Sunday: it raised almost eight million Lindens (that’s more than US$30,000) for Relay-For-Life and the fight against cancer.
This amazing number only happened because people cared enough to volunteer hundreds of hours of time to create content which drew players from all of Second Life.
This year, NeoVictoria sponsored the Serenity SIM and produced a new roleplay cycle. We’re taking a moment to publicly thank the people in our community who worked so hard to make “The Sidhe and the Soul-Eater” such a spectacular success!
Studio Yue stayed up late too many nights, making the machinimas that tracked our roleplay in almost real-time. Watch all of them here. This is the third year they have made these really special chronicles of the story! [And, they also made some lovely steampunky Relay-for-Life gifts.]
JulianEastman brought a sense of whimsy to Sir Karl Twinewood, the Sidhe Automaton, which made the loss of that character even more heartbreaking.
LurkingNightTerror took the idea of the mythological dullagan to make their Crom Dubh a formidable soul-caster within the confines of our storyworld. It is always wonderful to watch people build the lore!
thefireoflife Resident as the Soul-Eater developed a very powerful, very frightening character that was amazing to roleplay with. “She was greeted by his voice …broken whispers layered one over another …sickeningly sweet, nearly alluring, but for the taunts it made …the promising threats of what it could do to her body and her spirit.”
Hmmmph Stenvaagcreated a special edition of the NeoLondon Times, so we had an in-character prop to give to faire-goers during our time in Serenity. If you haven’t read it, here’s the link.
Jhaesoph Foxdale made the shadow-imp avatar; these were great roleplay foils and one of our Relay-for-Life gifts, so any of the fairegoers could join the fun!
Tarquin Evermore crafted a beautiful mesh & prim fantasy skirt, fit for a steampunk queen, as one our Relay-for-Life gift.
Fianah Mistwood created spectacular “mirrors” for each of the races in our storyworld; they were the highlight of the information section in our build in Serenity!
Our Roleplay Cycle for Fantasy Faire 2016

abigalekirin Resident as Kotter Keen;
Akai Scorpio as Doctor Seito Akai;
AlyssTheMenace Resident as Prelate Leonora Blackmore;

This roleplay is the first in series being produced by the NeoVictoria Roleplay Group for Fantary Faire and the fight against cancer. Read more about it at our page on the FF2016 site; here’s the link.
Please join us, the NeoVictoria Roleplay Group, for this very special series of roleplay events, produced exclusively for Fantasy Faire 2016. Beginning on Thursday, 21 April in NeoVictoria SIM, we’ll bring our story of duty and heroism to the Fairelands on Friday, 22 April, when our intrepid band of roleplayers land in the Elven city of Serenity!
Roleplayers from all the Fairelands are encouraged to join us!
Event Description
Thousands of years past, a sidhe failed in their duty and let a nameless terror into the worlds. It cost them their life, but not their soul. That was put into a mechanical marvel, and so began their long service as a sentinel against the darkness.
But after so long, their mechanical body has begun to fail and that nameless evil escapes its bonds. The automaton sends word to the Sidhe Empire for assistance.
A transport dirigible dropped a crate full of mirrors and books, and a magic portrait of the Queen. The portrait broke. Now its magic has escaped, causing the land to lift, and the mirrors to capture some of the recordings the portrait had made.
Players
The NeoVictorians: AsilBindle Resident, Asil Karu, Asil Serpente, GhostFacedKiller Resident, Hmmmph Stenvaag, MadMechaMessiah Resident, NataliaDArtigo Resident, and peacelynxtree Resident.

This machinima documents the build created for the SLB12 Birthday celebration.
Build by Fianah Mistwood; textures and machinima by Asil Ares.
FantasyFaire2015 ended last week: it raised L$7,910,480 (US$31,642) for Relay-For-Life and the fight against cancer. It did that because people cared enough to volunteer their time to create content that drew players from all of Second Life into the SIMs.
This year, NeoVictoria sponsored the Aurora SIM and produced another great roleplay cycle. We’re taking a moment to publicly thank the people in our community who worked so hard, over a very short time, to make “White Wedding” an overwhelming success!
Studio Yue stayed up late too many nights, making the machinimas that tracked our roleplay in almost real-time. Watch all of them here.
MadMechaMessiah Resident played multiple characters, including the Groom, often at the same time. Their final roleplay as Augustus Whitehill was simply amazing!
Akasha Electricteeth developed the character of the Bride, roleplaying most of its scenes, and found the amazing skeleton-avatar we used for it!
myomy Resident created a special edition of the NeoLondon Times, so we had an in-character prop to give to faire-goers during our time in Aurora. If you haven’t read it, here’s the link.
Tarquin Evermore built a charming steampunk-airship as our Relay-for-Life gift.
Certified Lunasea rebuilt the Second Life wiki’s chat-bot script, so we had a working chat-bot of the Bride to entertain visitors when we weren’t roleplaying in Aurora SIM.
Treyhem Whitfield rezzed their steampunk-airship, the Winged Mare, so we had a great set-piece for our characters to use as their transportation to and from the fairelands.
Fianah Mistwood and myomy Resident kept our events on track by keeping the roleplay order organized in the NeoVictoria Group chat; Tafiyah Ehret helped with roleplay transcripts; and Jhaesoph Foxdale was our GM at the fairelands.
And, all of these players joined in the roleplays, that became the movies, that was “White Wedding“:
