Event Description
The NeoVictorians open a portal between the Sidhe Empire and the famed merchant realm of Athenaeum Arcana in the fairelands.
In the town of NeoLondon, on the planet NeoVictoria, in the Sidhe Empire.Cerridwen~in~Chains flits like a firefly in her prison of stone, bronze and rune-locked magics.Haskell Faustus whirls downwards; a tornado of pitch-black feathers.Cerridwen~in~Chains whispers a thought: “You return, just as the gate to fairelands opens.”Jane Black felt the black flapping wings the prelude to a good story. “Greetings Auditor.”“I beg your pardon, Miss. Have we met before?”Hmmmph stops abruptly as she almost collides with the newcomer. “So sorry!”“Forgive me but I cannot stay and chat. Distant lands are calling and the portal must be opened.”Haskell Faustus enters, feeling first the welcoming warmth of the ward, then the soothing cool between the massive stone walls of the towering cathedral.“Portal?” her brows furrow as she strives to remember what today is. “Ah!!! The Faire. The Auditor…he is opening the portal!!!”She kens him; as he approaches the organ in the central nave, which controls the machine that she powers …which in turn …powers the city, it would come alive.Calling on the power, his mind reaching out to Cerridwen to unite and amplify their magic, he chants the secret names of the runes and draws them in the air.Mesmerized by the beauty of the lights and by the sounds of an unknown spell reverberating endlessly in the cathedralThey make a stable funnel between the dimensions. Slowly, the others would see a portal begin to form in the stone floor.Haskell lands, the fires licking at his fingers and blazing in his eyes, turning to embers, and then disappears entirely.She felt her body weaken at the magnificent sight …unknowingly, her hand had grabbed the hand of the woman besides her.“Miss… Do you have good arms? I am asking because I might faint anytime soon.” “I should hope so; I’m a swordswoman for hire.”“Adventure awaits,” he tells them, then boldly steps into the portal and is swallowed.They step into a different landscape; seeing a familiar sign …they walk through the door.“Greetings, Travelers. Welcome to Mrs. Chickenstalkers Apothecary and Fine Goods Emporium.”“What are the odds? The portal led us right to a Chickenstalker’s.”Her legs tremble… “This is the passage in the book where I faint.” And on that precise last word, she does.Haskell puts the woman on the couch and accepts the water Hmmmph hands to him. “Here, drink this …slowly.”Perhaps it is time for Chickenstalker’s famous assortment of smelling salts.“This must have been her first time stepping through an inter-dimensional portal. First time is always the worst.”“I will start looking for the salts.” Hmmmph eyes a cabinet of bottles and walks towards what she hopes is her prize.

Join us for “A Visit to Mrs. Chickenstalkers” and see you at the Faire!
[From the Visitor’s Center, teleport to the NeoLondon Bridge, then cross the Neo-Thames; the lighhouse is just off the bridge-landing.]
In NeoVictoria, we do free-form dark roleplay. Free-form means there is no script; scenes evolve out of real-time character interactions. Dark roleplay means characters may act in aggressive, predatory, criminal and/or plain uncomfortable ways.
We use a simple dice-based wearable HUD called the NeoVictoria Roleplay Tool; avatars must wear this to see the roleplay chat. The item is free and available in our Visitor Center and various locations on our out-of-character skymall.
Players don’t have to be a member of our group to roleplay here; we do ask newcomers take a tour of the Visitor Center in NeoVictoria SIM to learn about the storyworld before joining in the roleplay. [Observer tags are also available for players who want to visit the land level, but not roleplay.]
