14th Annual Twisted Hunt Spring 2022


Time to fall down the rabbit hole for some Twisted Hunting. The theme for the Spring Hunt is NonSenSe and there's no telling what our Twisted Merchants may do!
 
  • Your journey begins HERE. Make your way between the displays of pictures, awards and memorabilia from former Twisted Hunts
  • Touch the twisting Alice Blue Cube [see what we did there?] above the altar for your official start packet. You can't miss it; there are huge pulsing arrows pointing the way!
  • The other cubes on this hunt will be fiendishly hidden, often in plain sight. You will scream, you will cry, you will tear your hair, but if you love hunting, this is the one to do! Twisted is proud of its reputation as the most difficult hunt in SL!
  • Join the Group to keep informed of side hunts and a sympathetic shoulder to cry on. The group members are friendly, if somewhat... twisted.

Mystical Market February 11- 28


In the month of pastel pinks and sugary sentiments, Mystical Market is here to provide love and rose thorns for those of us who prefer our romances dark and tragic. 

Mystical Market is the Love Potion Edition of your favorite Fantasy/Magical/Wiccan/Goth/Alternative/Occult/Dark shopping event. It's an opportunity to add new and even EXCLUSIVE items from your favorite fantasy and esoteric creators with discounts of 25-50%. 
The sales area is beautifully landscaped and the perfect setting to create extraordinary photo memories.


Join the L$10 HUNT. Seek for the hidden Love Potion Bottles throughout the Market. Some will be quite obvious; others will be fiendishly hidden. I'm holding the hunt item in the photo below, though of course, the size may vary. Pay L$10 for each bottle you find and you will be the proud owner of unique items you'll love!

Aii & Ego present: Holy Hell


Aii & Ego has just released another amazing look for fantasy/mystical personas. Whether you are a lawful angel, a chaotic demon or something else this set will add magic to your look.


Holy Hell comes with unisex Body Feathers which cover arms, legs and torso and Ankle Wings as well as the Halo & Horns headdress. There are 34 textures in the hud. Layers of feathers can be colored separately. I'm showing only pearl and almost-black, but there is a rainbow of jewel colors in the hud.

I'm wearing the Holy Hell set with Starfire Angel Wings, also from Aii & Ego. The wing hud offers the same feather variations available in the body feathers and has options for armor, energy wisps, bones and talons. You can also choose from 10 positions so that the wings fit your avatar perfectly. The unisex wings come in sizes from Xxs - Xxl.

Hair
~ BonBon Nori
Head ~ LeLutka Avalon 3.1
Body ~ Maitreya Lara 5.3
Skin ~ 7 Deadly S{k}ins Pink
Outfit ~ Aii & Ego Holy Hell
Tattoos ~ Anxious Angel Limb fade / Demon ~ Pout! Heart of Odinism / Ghost'Ink Valkyrie
Additional ~ Heartsdale Jewellery Eva Luna Collection

Pictures below show the difference between using Regular Lighting and Advanced Lighting. Advanced Lighting highlights the individual feathers and the metal of the headdress. Remember that activating Advanced Lighting only affects what appears on your screen, it doesn't affect how others will see your avatar.
