Time for Twisted
Hiya everyone! Tonight we explore the challenging hunt path that is Twisted, with their Fall 2020 round whose theme is Drow and cube color is moss covered earth. We are looking for small slowly rotating "lament" cubes, with at least one per store containing a prize and up to 13 visible decoys (cubes that do not contain a prize) from this round. A few stores used other rounds' cubes as part of the decor and those do not count towards the decoy limit, and each round has a unique texture for the cubes so that is quite clever in a diabolical sort of way ;) The list of participating stores has a combination of familiar names and a few that were new to me, so I enjoyed visiting all of them in different ways. Please keep an eye out for the Twisted easels that many stores have out to click, as they will distribute a notecard with helpful information about side hunts, exclusive sales items, gachas, and occasionally a hint or two. Otherwise the only way to get a hint is by joining the inworld group and asking politely. The group will also let us know when the End Game is ready, as they are experiencing a RL delay but hopefully will be ready to challenge us with it soon.
My first look is the prize from Dreaming Thicket called Nightshade Gown, and it is an elegant full length dress with sheer sleeves and built in belt. It is provided in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Voluptuous mesh bodies. It incorporates both the green and brown from the cube colors in its ombre, and I love the way the sleeves have a loop around each middle finger to hold them in place.
My adventures also took me to Little 2 Large, where I found not only the main prize but embarked upon their mini hunt as well. The main gift for the ladies is this daring L2L Trowie Dress THF20, provided in sizes for dinkies and petites in addition to the one you see here. The top and bottom come in system/BOM layers along with an Omega applier. The flexi skirt comes in two versions, with the original on the left above and the THF20 with cube pattern on the right, so you can choose which one to wear.
Another store who has a side hunt waiting for us is Roped Passions, although this round it has been designed to take photos and inspire spending time together. The main prize is the daring (RP) Varle Webbed Dress, in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine bodies. Here I added two gifts found in the side hunt, the (RP) Varle Webbed Gloves and the (RP) Varle Necklace. The gloves have been crafted in Maitreya, Slink, and Tonic sizing, and the necklace is unrigged so you can adjust it if need be. I am enjoying the tiny hints of purple throughout these prizes, and I expect these spidery goodies will be making lots of appearances near Halloween too.
The main prize at **DSO** in their store is the mens outfit, so the ladies need to head to their side hunt and find crystals and more cubes to claim this wonderful treat called **DSO** Runea Outfit. The strapless dress with fluttery strips for the skirt is provided in sizes for Altamura, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies. The shoes have two versions, v1 with spiders and v2 without, each in Slink High size and an unrigged size so you can adjust as needed. I appreciate the fact that they included a version without creepy crawlies for anyone who suffers from arachnophobia, which I must have a mild case of since live ones freak me out but still images do not. Ones that move in SL bother me a bit, less than RL though. Did you notice the cube texture on the bodice of the dress?
For my final look this evening, I kept the lovely **DSO** dress on and slipped into the prize from GERMINAL which is their DROW SLEEVES bom THF20. These tattoos are suitable for classic avatars as well as all BOM compatible mesh bodies, and come in the dark version (seen on the left above) and a white tintable version (right) which I left white since I like the delicate lacy appearance. These are unisex, so all you need to do is find the correct cube in their store to claim this. That is always the tricky part ;) I specifically recall asking Xan in a joking manner while in this store, why I am so good at finding all the decoys but not the real cube, but of course there is no answer to that mystery.
Despite having blood drawn, it was a pretty good day...I have been going to the same lab for many years now, and the same phlebotomist has been there the entire time, so she greets me warmly like an old friend. Chatting with her is pleasant enough to distract from the needle, and her experience helps her do her job very swiftly and nearly painlessly. I am very fair skinned so I tend to bruise easily, but she usually doesn't bruise me and I do not see any discoloration yet. Otherwise I just had a few errands to run while out, picking up curbside orders, so it was a productive day. I hope you're all having a delightful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
