The only Victorian Steampunk-themed grid-wide hunt in SecondLife is produced by Historical Hunts. This is our 11th year contributing and this year we’re stop 82!
We usually do a mini-hunt: this one features lovely, pirate themed props and accessories!
We have eight gifts staged throughout our Pirate Lair (created exclusively for this hunt!) on the skylevel of NeoVictoria SIM.
Our skylevel is always out-of-character (OOC), so hunters won’t disrupt the roleplay.
Here’s the list:
Large “Wooden” Mesh BeamsUse it as a prop: add sits or place for visual appeal. Perfect to a pirate’s lair or a warehouse picnic.A magical sphere with a pulsing heart. Perfect as a beacon to guide friendlies to your private lair or resize to use a desk lSix barrels of ale stacked on a wooden base.

How can an interstellar empire exist without nuclear power and warp-drives?
In the Neo-Verse, our characters travel between worlds by ‘walking the rifts’ …the terrible cold void which some can traverse in only their skin. While others need the protection of flying machines.
The runes she draws fall like curtains, revealing the terrible coldness of the void under Augustus’ feet.
As for the cities and industries? These are powered by the souls of the dead. To learn more about how the Neo’Verse is structured, read the Economy of the Empire.
The NeoVictoria Project is a unique dark-roleplay environment crafted with a steampunk aesthetic. This year’s build is a cinema: the lower level is open so folks who walk by can see information about the kinds of creatures who live in this storyworld, and the upper-level is the cinema itself, streaming five of the many machinima-movies made over the years.

This year, Tarquin Evermore made some really nifty decorative gears …just perfect for your steampunk lifestyles! They have resizer scripts and the center is scripted so the texture moves and flashes. [It’s very dramatic.] We have then staged at the corners of our build in SLB13 Electrify. Happy hunting!
Our gifts for the Big Hunt!

When you see this texture in-world, it means that parcel is participating in the hunt.
NeoVictoria made the splash page for the guide this year!
The celebration begins tomorrow; join the fun!
