Song Playing:"Lean Back" ~Jax Streeter
Previously in RP News..
Second Life is a world full of Role Play opportunities. A Role-player
can find extremely elaborate simulated areas or 'sims' engaging the
player to be in character by wearing costumes, speaking and generally
interacting with ongoing storylines. When a person is involved in role
play, they are essentially part of the plot of a story yet to be
written. So jump in, create the character that you've always wanted to
be and develop your own story....

Role Play Sim of the Week :
Revolutions – Change Has Begun
Wow! What a futuristic ultra-cool place. When I arrived, I am not sure if it was the meeting of the 4 creators of this sim or the fantastic design and layout that pulled my interests into Revolutions, making me want to return and find a place among this group. Revolutions-Change Has Begun is a must stop and check out on your list of explorations within SL.
MzHuntress Aeon, Ken Anthony, Nazzirah Thorne and Amina Milena are the creators of this brain child. Nazzirah is the onsite builder and constant recreator. Believe me, this sim changes daily with exciting and seemingly never ending fresh ideas. It is easy to find a spot here within one of the following groups: Night Stalkers, Beast of Revolution, Toreador, Cruor Vampires, unhinged Souls or Lost. The four creators are in the original group of Dark Walkers and just meeting them make it worth the stop here.
As stated by one of Dark Walker’s Blood Lord, Gatsby Clawtooth, “the credit of the sim goes mostly to the general managers themselves. The four of them are great”
Not only was that Gatsby’s sentiment, but everyone that I spoke to about this sim said the same thing. Alsedel Llewellyn, a member of the Beast of Revolution group, is also a regular gamer on the sim and can not say enough about the general managers or the sim itself. His thoughts on Revolutions are as follows:
"I am new to rp and what I enjoy about revo is that the GMs and people there really help me with learning about RP. This is great for people who are eager to develop their character and interactions with others yet are unsure of the protocols. You can walk down any street and watch a story develop before your eyes and either choose to watch or get involved"
When you get to Revolutions, be sure to get a copy of the history. It is a fantastic start to the whole concept and will draw you into the story before you actually even start to play. Here is just a small bit of the history written by the creators...Read More
The waiting room is full of very useful clues.... Umm, just what is useful?
I was watching that pendulum swinging closer and closer....and closer!
Beyond Imagination
by Jayalli Hawthorne
Step ‘Within’ the ‘Beyond Imagination’ playing field along side me to see a different form of role play. Meet Kiana Writer, the creator of Beyond Imagination, designing, and customizing games for the individual and for companies as well. She has a small team of helpers that are noticeably passionate about what they do. Each month a new game is introduced to the group. I was amazed at the amount of work that had to go into each of the sets within just one game and cannot believe that they are able to accomplish this feat in so little time. Kiana is a RL writer and is able to bring that experience into SL. She brings her story to life and says that she has finally acquired the graphics (thru SL) to the bubble she has always lived.
Kiana pulls you in as the main character into a ‘keep-on-your-toes’ mystery. You start in the Beyond Imagination Head Quarters by reading a cartoon on the wall that will give a bit of insight to your goal. From there, you head out to a waiting room, which has also has clues for the various series of ‘testing-rooms’ that you will soon be visiting. When you are in the waiting room, be sure to really study the table and all the items available to you. Take my word for it. They will come in handy and will possibly save your second life in the near future. I, apparently, did not study hard enough. :)
When you enter the ‘testing-rooms,’ you will find yourself, well.... a bit compromised in some form, and have to solve the puzzle in a specific amount of time. At one point in the game, found myself on a game table unable to move, looking up to a swinging pendulum with a very sharp blade slowly getting closer and closer. I searched the room over trying to figure out the right combination that would unlock the release allowing me to jump off the table. Could I figure it out in time?
The graphics are phenomenal and really so are the puzzles. You will follow the map to each destination throughout the game and can always return to the ‘waiting room’ to take in the clues one more time or to just hang out. The group will have social events and surprises for their members. The members, around 450 or so, look forward to these ‘surprises’ and to the social events that are planned periodically.
This is one sim worth the visit and will keep you interested from month to month with each new adventure just around the corner. See you there!
